The head of the State Duma Committee on the Financial Market, Anatoly Aksakov, said that the government can classify mining as a type of entrepreneurship.
On September 8, Aksakov said:
Since crypto mining is a type of entrepreneurship, it is obvious that we need to enter this business into the state register and regulate it according to all industry standards.
In addition:
We also need to discuss the fact that digital currency is actually now, although we call it a currency, rather used as a financial instrument, a financial asset that is an object for investment, rather than being used as a means of payment.
Recall that recently the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov said that Bitcoin will not fit into the country’s financial system.
