Crypto trading in Russia: Central bank names cutoff date for Bitcoin and Ethereum

Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Russia’s central bank will permit legal trading in Bitcoin, Ethereum and USDT from a set date under strict liquidity requirements, opening a regulated domestic crypto market. The move matters because it gives Russia’s large retail and institutional base a formal route into major tokens after years of legal ambiguity. Watch next for the final licensing roster of exchanges and brokers, the liquidity thresholds they must meet, and whether USDT access expands beyond trading into payments and cross-border settlement.
