BITCOIN - Finance Minister Anton Siluanov has confirmed that Russian companies are conducting international transactions in Bitcoin, thanks to new legislative measures. This move follows the sanctions imposed by the West after the invasion of Ukraine in 2022, which severely limited Russia’s ability to make international payments.
In an interview broadcast on Russia 24, Siluanov stated:
"We can pay for the delivery of goods with digital financial assets. It is also possible to use Bitcoin, which we mined here in the Russian Federation, within the experimental regime. Such transactions are already occurring. We believe they should be expanded and developed further. I am confident this will happen next year.”
