“#Russian officials consider partial lift on crypto payment ban<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

                Some Russian officials want to allow cryptocurrencies for payments under domestic contract law.\n                <p>Russian lawmakers are reportedly weighing a partial reversal of the country's ban on cryptocurrency payments.\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Pavel Krasheninnikov, chairman of the Russian Duma\u2019s Committee on State Building and Legislation, announced that the government is considering amending civil law to allow crypto payments as a \u201ccontractual medium.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
According to Interfax on Monday, Krasheninnikov noted<\/a> that cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) do not currently represent a legal payment method in Russia, which means that merchants are not required to accept it. The planned amendments would allow crypto payments in Russia under contractual law \u2014 meaning that such payments would be only possible with the consent of all involved parties:<\/p>\n
\u201cWe believe that it is necessary to make amendments to the Civil Code, the initiative is currently undergoing a necessary app<\/a>roval procedure. Currently there is an understanding that digital currency is not legal as payment but this payment method, quite possibly, can be contractual.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
As previously reported, Russia enforced its cryptocurrency payment ban this January, officially prohibiting residents from making and accepting payments in crypto in the country. Anatoly Aksakov, chairman of the Russian State Duma Committee on Financial Markets, argued last year that legalizing crypto payments would essentially mean the \u201cdestruction of the financial system.\u201d Aksakov is confident that Russia\u2019s not-yet-launched central bank digital currency is poised to be the \u201chighest form of money\u201d and will be an integral part of national settlements by 2023 or 2024.<\/p>\n
