🗄️ New rules for specialized crypto depositories & exchangers
🌍 Digital Financial Assets may circulate on open networks to attract foreign capital

⏳ Timeline That Matters

🇷🇺🔥 BTC MINING, NUOVO PILASTRO DEL RUBLO? 🔥🇷🇺

La governatrice della Banca Centrale russa Elvira Nabiullina ha dichiarato che il mining di Bitcoin è diventato “uno dei fattori aggiuntivi” che stanno sostenendo la forza del rublo, pur restando difficile quantificarne con precisione l’impatto per via del grande peso del settore “grigio”.

Questa è una svolta notevole se si considera che fino a pochi anni fa la stessa Nabiullina chiedeva il divieto totale di criptovalute e mining in Russia.
Il meccanismo è chiaro: il mining viene trattato sempre più come una sorta di “nuovo export” o “export nascosto”, che trasforma l’energia in Bitcoin rivendibili sui mercati internazionali in cambio di valuta forte, aggirando in parte i colli di bottiglia del sistema finanziario occidentale.

Questi flussi in valuta estera – anche se non ufficialmente contabilizzati – contribuiscono a ridurre la pressione sul cambio del rublo, offrendo liquidità addizionale in un contesto di sanzioni, controlli sui capitali e calo delle entrate da petrolio e gas.

Nabiullina resta cauta e sottolinea che il rafforzamento del rublo non può essere spiegato solo dal mining e che servono dati migliori su un settore ancora in ampia parte non regolato, ma il semplice fatto che la banca centrale lo riconosca come fattore macroeconomico segna un cambio di paradigma: da “minaccia” speculativa a strumento non convenzionale di politica economica e di resilienza valutaria.

🇨🇳🥇🇷🇺 CINA ACQUISTA ORO RUSSO PER QUASI 1 MILIARDO DI DOLLARI A NOVEMBRE 🇨🇳🥇🇷🇺

Immaginate un mondo dove lo yuan backed dall'oro sfida il dollaro: non è fantascienza, ma la traiettoria precisa della Cina nel 2025.
A novembre, Pechino ha acquistato da Mosca oro per 961 milioni di dollari, record storico bilaterale, dopo i 930 milioni di ottobre; totale primi 11 mesi: 1,9 miliardi, quasi nove volte l'anno precedente.

Questo non è hedging casuale, ma accumulo sistematico contro sanzioni e de-dollarizzazione.
Le riserve ufficiali cinesi sfiorano le 2.303 tonnellate (74 milioni di once), ma analisti come Société Générale stimano 250 tonnellate annue nel 2025 – un terzo della domanda globale delle banche centrali – mentre esperti del Financial Times ipotizzano 5.000 tonnellate totali, doppio del dichiarato, per opacità strategica.

Pechino non si ferma alla quantità: costruisce un ecosistema.
La Shanghai Gold Exchange (SGE) ha inaugurato vault offshore a Hong Kong (giugno 2025), con piani per Singapore, Zurigo e Dubai, offrendo contratti yuan-gold, tracciamento blockchain e zero fee fino a fine anno per erodere il pricing occidentale.

La Belt & Road Initiative amplifica: prestiti gold-backed ai partner (collaterale oro per yuan loans, rimborso in valute locali) riducono la dipendenza dal dollaro.
Con Russia e BRICS, nascono "rails" per settlement gold-backed extra-dollaro: piattaforme yuan per pricing regionale e commercio fisico, come il prototipo "Unit" (40% oro, 60% valute BRICS).

Posizionamento maestro per il reset monetario: oro come buffer sovrano contro rischi geopolitici, non mera diversificazione ma base per un gold-based system imminente.

🇷🇺 تأثير تعدين العملات الرقمية على الاقتصاد الروسي
صرحت إلفيرا نابيولينا، محافظ البنك المركزي الروسي في مقابلة مع RBC أن تحديد تأثير تعدين العملات الرقمية على الاقتصاد أمر صعب بسبب الطبيعة غير المنظمة إلى حد كبير لهذا القطاع.
ومع ذلك، أكدت نابيولينا أن تعدين العملات الرقمية يعد أحد العوامل التي تدعم قوة الروبل.
💡 ملاحظة إضافية:
أشار مستشار رئاسي روسي في وقت سابق من هذا الشهر إلى أن تعدين العملات الرقمية بدأ يتبلور كـ "منتج تصديري جديد"، ويؤثر بشكل ملموس على سوق الصرف الأجنبي في روسيا.
🔹 الخلاصة:
رغم التحديات التنظيمية، يظهر أن العملات الرقمية لم تعد مجرد استثمار فردي، بل أصبحت عنصرًا مؤثرًا في الاقتصاد الوطني الروسي، خصوصًا في دعم العملة المحلية وتوسيع الصادرات الرقمية.

Russia’s LNG: Pivot to Asia
November 2025 marked a record delivery of Russian LNG to China — 1.6 million tons. Europe is stepping back, Asia is stepping in.
Key Insights
Russian LNG is now the cheapest option for China
Discounts are driving demand, not partnership
Sanctions aren’t stopping exports, just reshaping the market
Implications
LNG plants stay active, revenue continues
Margins are thinner, terms dictated by China
Economy is adapting from growth → survival mode
💡 Bottom line: Russia’s LNG strategy isn’t about expanding influence; it’s about keeping income flowing while Europe loses relevance. China is the anchor — not a partner.

🇨🇳 چینی میڈیا NetEase میں شائع ہونے والی ایک رائے (Far East سے متعلق)

سرخی کا مفہوم:
“اگر روسی فیڈریشن ٹوٹ گئی تو 70 لاکھ مربع کلومیٹر زمین ضائع نہیں ہونی چاہیے”

اہم نکات :

روس کا مشرقِ بعید (Far East) روس کے لیے ایک کمزور بوجھ جیسا ہے، جبکہ چین کے لیے ایک قیمتی خزانہ

اس علاقے میں روسی فوج کی تعداد 50 ہزار سے بھی کم رہ گئی ہے

روس کی معیشت (GDP) ایک چینی صوبے سے بھی کم بتائی گئی

طاقت کے زور پر قبضہ ممکن نہیں، ورنہ کریمیا جیسی صورتحال بن سکتی ہے

چین کو مالی مدد اور قرضوں کے ذریعے اثر و رسوخ بڑھانا چاہیے

مقصد: ظاہری طور پر آزاد، مگر عملی طور پر چین پر انحصار کرنے والا علاقہ

براہِ راست جملہ: “یہ زمین کس کی ہے؟ نام ہی تو ہے، اصل زندگی کی رگیں ہمارے ہاتھ میں ہیں”

🇨🇳🥇 China–Russia Gold Trade Hits Historic High
In November, China set a new record by importing $961 million worth of gold from Russia — the largest single gold deal in the history of bilateral trade, according to media reports citing Chinese customs data.
📊 Bigger picture:
Jan–Nov 2025: China imported $1.9 billion worth of Russian gold
That’s almost 9× higher than the same period last year
🔍 What this signals:
Accelerating de-dollarization
Rising preference for hard assets
Strategic diversification of reserves amid geopolitical tension
When central banks and major economies move this aggressively into gold, it’s not about speculation — it’s about trust, sovereignty, and long-term stability.

🇷🇺 Russia Just Dropped HUGE Crypto Regulations! 🤯

Russia is moving to regulate its crypto market, creating a two-tiered system. Non-qualified investors can buy liquid cryptos like $BTC and $ETH – but only after passing a knowledge test and with a $3,800 annual limit. 🧐 Qualified investors, after a risk assessment, get unlimited access (excluding anonymous tokens). Legislation is expected next year. This could be a major shift for adoption in the region! $BNB

RUSSIA'S CRYPTO SHAKE-UP. HUGE SHIFT IMMINENT.

This is not a drill. Russia is implementing a new crypto regulatory framework. Non-qualified investors face transaction caps of $3,800 annually after a test. Qualified investors get access to most cryptos, unlimited amounts. Legislative changes are coming next year. This will reshape the market. Get ahead of the curve.

Disclaimer: Crypto trading is risky.

#CryptoNews #Russia #Regulation #MarketMoves 🚀

Bank of Russia is shaking the market — they’re drafting a framework that could let retail investors buy Bitcoin and other crypto assets for the first time.

What’s changing?

- Non‑qualified investors will need to pass a basic knowledge test and can only trade through a single intermediary.

- An annual cap of ₽300 000 (≈ $3,800) per person will be enforced, limiting exposure while still giving “normal” traders a legal gateway.

- Qualified investors (high‑net‑worth individuals and institutions) will enjoy higher limits and access to a broader range of tokens, though privacy coins will remain off‑limits.

The proposal also pushes licensed exchanges, brokers and custodians to meet stricter compliance standards, and it opens the door for Russians to buy crypto on foreign platforms as long as they report the transactions to tax authorities.

Why now?

The central bank has been moving from a hard‑line stance toward a “controlled opening” model, recognizing the surge in crypto adoption roughly 20 million Russians already use digital assets, with total wallet balances hitting ₽827 bn (≈ $10 bn) earlier this year. At the same time, the regulator reiterates that crypto is high‑risk and not a legal tender, so the new rules aim to protect investors while bringing activity out of the shadows.

What’s next?

The framework is still a draft; final legislation is slated for July 2026, after which banks and intermediaries will need to meet capital and reserve requirements.

If you’re already in the space, now’s a good time to brush up on compliance and risk disclosures. For those watching from the sidelines, this could be the start of a more regulated, mainstream crypto market in Russia.
