Almost Half of Russians Ready to Use Digital Ruble — TASS

A TASS report reveals significant public interest in the digital ruble (CBDC). Nearly half of Russians are ready to use it, with 18% actively willing and 36% prepared to adopt it once it becomes more widespread. Interest is highest among younger demographics: 62% of those aged 18-24, 45% of those aged 25-44, and 31% of those over 45 are open to it. Awareness is high, with 70% of respondents having some knowledge of the digital ruble. However, only 32% claim a good understanding, while 38% are only vaguely familiar, and 30% know almost nothing. People primarily learn about new financial tools from mass media (32%), banks/financial services (28%), relatives/friends (18%), and social media (11%). The Bank of Russia is pushing adoption with economic incentives starting January 1, 2027, rewarding banks for salary payments in digital rubles. Major banks are required to enable all clients to conduct CBDC transactions from September 1 of this year. The survey was conducted by "Vyberu.ru" and "Eurokredit.ru" with 2,976 participants.

A7 to Provide Unique Expertise on Stablecoin Settlement to the Market

Beginning September 1, 2026, Russia's "On Digital Currencies and Digital Rights" law will establish rules for cryptocurrency circulation, significantly expanding tools for importers and exporters. Company A7, a user of the largest ruble-pegged stablecoin A7A5, has announced its readiness to share its unique expertise in digital asset operations with foreign trade participants. According to Oleg Ogienko, Director of Government Relations and International Ties for the A7A5 project, the company's specialists have developed significant expertise in legally formalizing such transactions, compliance, currency control, and interacting with infrastructure participants. Following the law's enactment, A7 will continue applying this expertise for client operations and plans to adapt its business processes as the Bank of Russia issues related regulatory acts. The Bank of Russia clarified that exporters and importers will be able to conduct cross-border settlements in digital currency either through intermediaries or directly, though domestic use of such assets will remain restricted. All requirements for operators and settlement participants will be detailed in the regulator's subordinate acts. A7 had previously highlighted the high degree of transaction freedom in foreign trade as a key advantage of Russia's developing crypto-asset regulation model, while noting limitations for individuals and a banking-centric system that could hinder market growth.

Central Bank of Russia Establishes Rules for Cryptocurrency Trading

The Central Bank of Russia has unveiled new draft regulations for trading cryptocurrencies, signaling a move towards strict state-controlled oversight of the industry rather than simple legalization. The framework establishes a privileged, state-appointed exchange to control organized trading, dictate transaction rules, and set official asset prices. A key element is the introduction of "digital depositories," which face prohibitively high capital requirements ranging from 50 to 250 million rubles. These funds must be held in highly liquid, top-tier credit-quality assets, effectively barring independent crypto startups and paving the way for major banking intermediaries. Similar high barriers are set for electronic platform operators handling settlements. The regulations impose significant surveillance on an industry built on principles of privacy. Digital depositories are required to collect extensive client and asset information, functioning as overseers akin to those in the traditional securities market. The Central Bank retains exclusive authority to maintain the registry of authorized depositories. Critics argue these rules transform the once-accessible crypto market into a closed, elite club. By creating a tightly regulated "legal arena," the central bank is seen as stripping away the very advantages—like accessibility and privacy—that originally attracted enthusiasts to the space.

Central Bank Decides to Make Budget Payments in Digital Rubles Commission-Free for All

The Central Bank of Russia has decided to make all payments to the state budget using the digital ruble commission-free for both citizens and businesses. This policy, with zero fees for all transaction types, will be in effect from January 1, 2026, until the end of that year. Starting in 2027, certain transactions will incur fees. These include a 15-ruble fee for transfers between legal entities, a 0.3% commission (capped at 1,500 rubles) for transfers from individuals to legal entities (excluding utility bills, paid by the recipient), and a 0.2% fee (capped at 10 rubles) for individual utility payments (paid by the recipient). From September 1, 2026, the largest banks must provide all clients with the ability to open digital ruble wallets. Russians will also be able to receive their salaries in the digital currency. A mandatory rollout schedule was outlined: the 12 largest banks must support operations by September 2026, followed by companies with revenue over 120 million rubles. Smaller companies and all banks will be phased in through 2028. The article notes that Russia is one of the first countries to launch a national digital currency, which is designed for payments only and does not accrue interest. It contrasts this with China's digital yuan (e-CNY), which reportedly did not see high public demand initially. To boost adoption, China's regulator will allow commercial banks to pay interest on digital yuan holdings starting in 2026.

How the Central Bank Will Regulate Cryptocurrencies in Russia. The Main Points

The Central Bank of Russia has published a concept for regulating cryptocurrencies and digital assets, with legislative changes proposed to the government. While crypto assets can be purchased by both qualified and unqualified investors, they are recognized as high-risk and cannot be used for domestic payments. Key regulations include: Unqualified investors can only buy the most liquid cryptocurrencies after passing a test, with an annual limit of 300,000 rubles per intermediary. Qualified investors can purchase any non-anonymous cryptocurrencies without volume limits, also after risk testing. Operations will be conducted through existing licensed infrastructure like exchanges and brokers. Residents can buy crypto abroad using foreign accounts and transfer previously purchased crypto overseas through Russian intermediaries, but must notify the tax service. The legal framework is to be prepared by July 1, 2026, with penalties for illegal intermediary activities effective from July 1, 2027. The regulation also covers the market for Russian Digital Financial Assets (DFAs), permitting their circulation on open networks to allow issuers to attract foreign investment. DFAs, distinct from cryptocurrencies, are tokenized versions of real assets issued on private blockchains by approved operators.

LDPR Calls for Not Banning Cryptocurrencies "Under a Far-Fetched Pretext"

The Liberal Democratic Party of Russia (LDPR) has called for cryptocurrencies not to be banned "under a far-fetched pretext." Party leader Leonid Slutsky stated that cryptocurrencies should be legalized and regulated, framing the issue as one of technological and financial sovereignty. He argued it is impossible to "endlessly prohibit what the whole world is using" and that citizens should be provided with necessary tools for development. Meanwhile, the Central Bank of Russia (CBR) estimates there are about 1 million qualified investors in the country who could be permitted to trade cryptocurrencies after passing a test. The CBR proposes restricting non-qualified ordinary Russians from purchasing crypto to protect them from risks, though bans on holding or selling are not planned. The CBR reported an 18% decline in Russian transactions on foreign crypto exchanges in Q2 and Q3 of 2025 compared to the previous two quarters. The estimated monthly balance of Russians' funds on crypto exchanges fell by 20% to 933 billion rubles, and traffic from Russia to crypto platforms dropped by 28%. The regulator deems it crucial to legalize the crypto market but, according to First Deputy Chairman Vladimir Chistyukhin, also advocates for laws with strict restrictions and prohibitions to be adopted quickly.
