Not very good news that the Bank of Russia prohibits large players from investing in bitcoin. This could hinder the development of the cryptocurrency industry. I can only observe a positive trend, namely that the Bank of Russia, Sber, is planning to launch an ETF focused on the blockchain, said Vasily Illarionov, head of Sber's asset management.
