Russia’s Central Bank to Explore Crypto Settlements Amid Financial Sanctions

On Monday, Olga Skorobogatova, the first deputy chairman of the monetary authority, stated that the Central Bank of the Russian Federation (CBR) intended to test using cryptocurrency to settle foreign commerce.

According to the Tass news agency, she stated, “We are now aiming to attempt the use of cryptocurrencies for international settlements, that is, for foreign commercial activity, within the scope of the experimental legal system that we are constructing.”

Skorobogatova explained the details of the pilot project in a speech to the State Duma, the lower house of the Russian parliament. She did not mention which market participants will take part in detail.

Moscow’s government agencies have been seeking to include decentralized cryptocurrencies in the regulatory framework for digital financial assets. Although the central bank had been adamantly opposed to their legalization in Russia, it has changed its mind in light of Western sanctions related to the invasion of Ukraine, which have restricted the country’s access to international markets and funds.

In September, Alexey Moiseev, deputy minister of finance, disclosed that his office and the monetary policy regulator had concluded that, given the existing situation, Russia could not function without cross-border cryptocurrency settlements.

However, the CBR continues to oppose enabling domestic crypto payments and the free circulation of virtual currencies like bitcoin in Russian territory. It recently supported legislation that controls mining if the created cryptocurrency is traded only outside Russia or within specific legal frameworks.

The Bank Of Russia Supports International Cryptocurrency Payments Above Domestic Trade

Elvira Nabiullina, the head of Russia’s central bank, is the most recent representative to affirm that although domestic cryptocurrency payments are not yet accepted, the country is warming to the idea.

In Nabiullina’s opinion, cryptocurrencies can only be utilized for cross-border or international payments if they are kept out of the Russian financial system.

According to the Bank of Russia governor in an interview with the regional news agency RBC, a virtual currency shouldn’t be used to purchase websites or applications within the country. Because of this, the value of cryptocurrencies is too unpredictable or volatile, making them unsafe for individual investors.

Nabiullina continued by saying that all rules and regulations put in place to safeguard investors must be followed by digital assets. As a result, in addition to having an emission prospectus and a responsible party, all assets listed on an exchange must also adhere to information disclosure laws.

Before April, the governor urged the government to concentrate on supporting the growth of digital asset initiatives issued by a responsible party. She compared such a concept to private coins like Bitcoin, which lack a single accountable party whose originator is entirely unknown.
