Russia’s Largest Crypto Mining Firm Hit as BitRiver CEO Faces Tax Evasion Allegations

Russia's largest cryptocurrency mining company, BitRiver, faces intensified legal and financial pressure as its founder and CEO, Igor Runets, has been detained and charged with multiple counts of tax evasion. A Moscow court placed him under house arrest, restricting his movement during the investigation. This development adds to BitRiver's existing challenges, including U.S. sanctions imposed in 2022 and the loss of key international partnerships. The company, which operates data centers in Siberia, has also faced operational cutbacks, delayed salary payments, and lawsuits from regional energy providers. The case underscores growing regulatory risks for crypto mining firms in Russia and may influence future compliance and governance practices in the sector.

Turkmenistan Legalizes Crypto Mining Under Strict Government Control

Turkmenistan has partially legalized cryptocurrency mining and trading under a new law effective January 1, 2026, though it strictly prohibits the use of digital assets for payments. The legislation, signed by President Serdar Berdimuhamedov, permits individuals and institutions to mine cryptocurrencies using government-registered equipment and with official licenses. All activities are overseen by the Central Bank, which must approve projects and wallets. The move aims to diversify state income beyond natural gas exports by leveraging cheap electricity for mining revenue, while maintaining tight control to protect the national currency and prevent capital flight.

Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Plant For Crypto Mining? Putin Claims US Interest

Russian President Vladimir Putin has claimed the United States is interested in using the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant’s electricity for crypto mining and supplying power to Ukraine, according to a report citing Russian media. The plant, Europe’s largest nuclear facility, was captured by Russian forces in 2022 and has since halted power generation. While crypto mining—an energy-intensive process—could utilize excess energy, reactivating the plant remains complex. All six reactors are shut down, and the International Atomic Energy Agency states that restart is impossible while military conflict continues. Meanwhile, Bitcoin trades around $88,600.
