Russian Exchanges Signal Readiness for Crypto Trading

The Moscow Exchange and St. Petersburg Exchange have stated they are prepared to launch cryptocurrency trading once Russia finalizes relevant regulations, according to Wu Blockchain. Under the reported framework, retail investors would be limited to purchasing digital assets worth up to 300,000 rubles per year, while qualified investors would face no such cap, excluding privacy-focused cryptocurrencies. The exchanges’ positions, as cited by Wu Blockchain, indicate ongoing regulatory work to incorporate digital assets into Russia’s traditional financial markets.
