The position of the government and the Central Bank of Russia in relation to cryptocurrency has long been known to everyone, it is almost complete rejection of almost everything related to cryptocurrency, especially in the field of their use as a means of payment. It is now one of the most hostile countries towards cryptocurrency. For the situation to change, but it is necessary that the current ruling criminal regime of Putin fell. Without this, Russians have no chance to freely use cryptocurrency.

There are many valid reasons why Russia would not want a full-blown acceptance of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency on its economy and of course the biggest reason is that it is beyond their own control. The mindset of Russia has many similarities with that of China: never allow anything to flourish if there is no control button that is available to use anytime. I mean, they even annexed territory which is not anymore under their jurisdiction and they are so willing to kill any business that goes against their own interest - of course they can just rationalize that it is doing things in the interest of the country. So we should never expect that anytime soon Russia will be giving Bitcoin an easy pass and accommodation definitely this is the USA or El Salvador.
