RUSSIA OPENS REGULATED CRYPTO TRADING
According to TASS, the Bank of Russia added Bitcoin, Ethereum and USDT to its approved list for public trading on domestic exchanges.
Starting September 1, 2026, non-qualified investors can access eligible crypto after testing, with purchases capped at ₽300,000 per year per intermediary.
Russia is clearly moving toward regulated retail crypto access.
Big adoption milestone, or mostly a domestic policy shift?
