"Avoid Telegram Token," Urges Russian MP Amidst Charges Brought Against Durov

Russian lawmaker Andrey Svintsov, deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on Information Policy, has advised citizens against purchasing Telegram's Gram cryptocurrency, urging them to await official guidance from Roskomnadzor and the FSB before making any financial transactions via Telegram channels. He reiterated demands for Telegram to open a Russian office, store user data locally, and cooperate with security services. This warning follows reports that Telegram founder Pavel Durov has been charged in Russia with facilitating terrorist activity. The FSB alleges Telegram failed to remove channels and bots used by Ukrainian intelligence and extremist groups to coordinate acts of terrorism, sabotage, and cyber fraud, resulting in casualties and billions in damages. Russia's Investigative Committee linked the case specifically to a dating bot with over 13 million users, allegedly used for recruitment. Durov, detained by French authorities, confirmed the terrorism-related charges in late February. In June, he announced the rebranding of his 2019 crypto project back to its original name, Gram, with Telegram taking full control. Following the accusations, Gram's price dipped but has since partially recovered, though it remains well below its May peak and is down 14% over the past year.

Telegram’s Pavel Durov responds to Russia’s terrorism designation

Telegram founder Pavel Durov has publicly responded after Russian authorities designated him a "terrorist," claiming the move came after he refused government demands for mass surveillance and censorship. The Russian Federal Security Service accused him of facilitating terrorist activity by failing to remove channels used by terrorist groups and Ukrainian intelligence, building on a criminal case launched in February. Durov's legal challenges extend beyond Russia. He faced arrest in France in 2024 over allegations Telegram failed to adequately moderate illegal content, though he was later allowed to return to Dubai. The platform is also facing new court proceedings in Australia for allegedly not removing terrorism-related content. Positioning himself as a defender of free speech and digital privacy, Durov has criticized proposed EU surveillance measures and threatened to leave France if forced to grant access to users' private messages.

How Safe is it to Trade Gram and Make Purchases on Telegram — Explanation from a Lawyer

Currently, it is possible to purchase stars, pay for premium subscriptions, use the crypto wallet, and trade Gram (Toncoin) tokens within Telegram, according to Denis Polyakov, head of the "Digital Economy" practice at GMT Legal. He states there are currently no legal issues for users in Russia because only Pavel Durov personally, not Telegram's operating company, is listed as a terrorist/extremist. However, Polyakov suggests the Russian government might in the future add Telegram's operator company to the Rosfinmonitoring (Federal Financial Monitoring Service) list, similar to Meta in 2022. For now, Rosfinmonitoring has confirmed that sanctions against Durov do not apply to Telegram as a legal entity. This clarification comes after Russia's Federal Security Service opened a criminal case against Durov for allegedly "facilitating terrorist activities." A deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on Information Policy had previously advised Russians to stop buying TON (Gram), paying for subscriptions, or conducting any transactions within the Telegram ecosystem.

Pavel Durov Designated as a Terrorist in Russia. What Does This Mean for Telegram Users?

Pavel Durov, the founder of Telegram, has been added to Russia's list of terrorists and extremists by Rosfinmonitoring, as published on July 30. The entry includes his name and date of birth. The designation follows an announcement by the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) on July 29, which charged Durov with aiding terrorist activity. The FSB alleges that a Telegram dating bot named "DaiVinchik" was used to recruit 46 individuals for attacks on police and arson, orchestrated by Ukrainian special services. The FSB also accuses Telegram's administration of failing to remove channels and bots used by Ukrainian intelligence and extremist groups. Durov is reportedly subject to an international arrest warrant. Inclusion on the Rosfinmonitoring list leads to significant restrictions: the freezing of Durov's bank accounts and assets, severe limitations on financial transactions, and a ban on election participation, media interaction, and event organization. Transfers to his accounts may be considered terrorism financing. For ordinary Russian Telegram users, purchasing Telegram Premium is not classified as financing terrorism, according to an IT expert. General use of the messenger—messaging, managing channels—does not automatically make a user a participant in extremist activity. There has been no official decision to ban Telegram itself. It is noted that French authorities are also investigating Durov over allegations of inadequate measures against criminal activity on the platform and insufficient cooperation with law enforcement. Durov denies all charges.

Russian Cryptocurrency Market Valued at Tens of Billions of Rubles

The Russian cryptocurrency market is entering a clearer regulatory phase, with major banks preparing infrastructure for legal digital asset trading. New regulations are set to begin in September, with full implementation expected by 2027. VTB Bank aims to be among the first licensed operators, developing a comprehensive system for buying, selling, storing, and accounting for crypto assets. The market's daily turnover is already estimated at tens of billions of rubles, presenting a significant opportunity for banks to capture market share and commission income through user-friendly, secure services. Key future infrastructure elements will include blockchain, digital accounting, data protection, automation, and potentially AI. For private investors, crypto represents a volatile asset class where earnings can come from trading, investing, mining, or staking, but success depends on risk management, platform security, and understanding regulatory shifts. Bitcoin is seen as a market benchmark, while Ethereum's value is tied to its smart contract ecosystem. Market valuations remain sensitive to regulation, macroeconomic trends, and technological developments.

BitRiver Founder Igor Runets Accused of $12.5 Million Fraud

Igor Runets, founder of Russia's largest cryptocurrency mining company BitRiver, has been accused of fraud amounting to $12.5 million. Previously under house arrest, Runets has now been transferred to pre-trial detention. The allegations center on claims that he failed to deliver cryptocurrency mining equipment to "Infrastructure Siberia," a subsidiary company, after securing an $8 million contract in 2023. This reportedly caused losses of approximately 1 billion rubles ($12.5 million). He had previously faced tax evasion charges and was detained in February. A pioneer in Russian crypto mining, Runets founded BitRiver in 2017. However, the company has faced significant challenges, including a six-year ban on crypto mining in 10 Russian regions, which adversely affected its Siberian data centers. These restrictions led to financial difficulties, culminating in bankruptcy proceedings for the Fox group, BitRiver's main shareholder, in February. Once operating 15 data centers with over 175,000 servers in Siberia, BitRiver's future is now uncertain due to these escalating legal and economic pressures surrounding its founder.

Australia sues Telegram over alleged failures to remove terror content

Australia's eSafety Commissioner is suing Telegram in Federal Court, alleging the messaging platform failed to comply with the Online Safety Act by not removing pro-terror content after user complaints. The regulator's investigation claims certain reported material remained visible for weeks and that Telegram did not adequately prevent its spread, including known extremist footage. Potential fines could reach AU$54.6 million. Telegram posted a "freedom of expression" video but issued no formal statement. This case increases global scrutiny of Telegram's moderation. Simultaneously, Russia's FSB charged CEO Pavel Durov with facilitating terrorism for allegedly not removing channels used by Ukrainian intelligence and extremist groups. Durov also faces charges in France related to illegal content distribution. He has criticized government actions as threats to online privacy and free exchange.

Finland to "cut" cables: Russian operators will have to look for new internet routes

Finland will cut the optical fiber communication cables attached to its power transmission line pylons along the border with Russia by 2027, according to its energy company Fingrid. This follows the 2022 halt of electricity imports from Russia, making the infrastructure economically unviable to maintain solely for telecom needs. Currently, about 60-70% of Russia's international internet traffic transits through Finland, with up to 30% of these lines running along the power lines in question. Russian telecom operators are negotiating with Finnish counterparts for alternative routes. Potential backups include lines through Belarus, Baltic states, and submarine cables in the Baltic Sea. While no major impact on user traffic is expected, potential effects include rerouting, reduced network redundancy, and increased latency, especially for users in northwestern and European Russia. An AI analysis notes that shifting to submarine cables introduces new risks, as they are vulnerable to anchor damage and lengthy repairs. This technical move occurs alongside broader trends toward digital autonomy in Russia, raising questions about the future reliability of external internet channels.

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 Publishes Rules for Cryptocurrency Margin Trading

The Bank of Russia has published draft rules for margin trading of cryptocurrency and digital financial assets (DFAs). According to the proposals, both qualified and non-qualified investors will have access to leveraged transactions, though limits will be set for the latter in the future on transaction volume and permitted assets. Brokers may open a margin position for a client only if the trading platform provides an official risk rate for the specific asset. To combine crypto-assets and digital rights into one position, they must trade on the same technological platform or information system. The central bank is accepting feedback on the draft until August 12. Russia's organized cryptocurrency market is slated to launch from September 1, 2026, following the enactment of the "On Digital Currencies and Digital Rights" law. While this law establishes the core regulatory framework, additional norms, including these margin trading rules and previously published requirements for digital depositories and organized trading conditions, will be set out in separate Bank of Russia regulations.
