Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Moscow Exchange plans to launch trading in Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Tether (USDT) on December 1, 2026, beginning with a pilot phase that will onboard participating firms sequentially based on their readiness. The exchange, announcing initial trading targets and operational details on December 2, is positioning the new venue as "Russia's first organized digital currency market." Trading will leverage the exchange's existing equity market technology and be integrated into its unified clearing system, with the three assets offered in both address-based and non-address-based formats. Trading hours will mirror the Moscow stock market schedule, running from 12:50 PM to the following morning in Korean time. The launch matters because it marks the first time a major Russian exchange will offer regulated crypto trading through traditional market infrastructure, potentially opening institutional access in the region. Watch for details on participant eligibility, custody arrangements, and how the pilot phase progresses toward full market operation.
