According to Yakovlev, Rosfinmonitoring, the Ministry of Finance and the Bank of Russia have agreed on positions on legislation on the regulation of virtual assets. The departments agree that it is necessary to focus on regulating mining and the use of cryptocurrency obtained in Russia for settlements in foreign trade. Legislation may be approved by the State Duma as early as the spring session.
The Industrial Mining Association supports the introduction of the industry into the legal framework. As the director of the association, Sergei Bezdelov, said, the adoption of a law on the regulation of cryptocurrency will have a positive impact on the segment. In his opinion, companies involved in cryptocurrency mining will be able to draw up investment agreements with state corporations.
Analyst of the Finam financial group Leonid Delitsyn emphasized that after the adoption of the law, structural divisions of large raw materials organizations can also become miners. They will be able to make money using the competitive advantage of access to cheap electricity.
Earlier, the head of the State Duma Committee on the Financial Market of the Russian Federation, Anatoly Aksakov, said: the bill on cryptocurrencies, ready in 2022, has not yet been adopted due to the position of a single department. The senior parliamentarian refused to name which one.
