Russia to reportedly consider crypto use for international payments
Russia’s central bank has revealed that the country could re-consider using crypto for international payments, local news agency TASS reported on Sept. 5. According to the report, Russia’s Deputy Finance Minister Alexei Moiseev said the apex bank and the finance ministry could legalize crypto payments soon. Russia has faced increased scrutiny and sanctions from western countries over its Ukraine invasion. The sanctions birthed talks of the possibility of Russia using crypto to evade these sanctions, but stakeholders in the crypto industry have insisted that this is not possible.
