As of December 2023, 2025, the Bank of Russia has issued a new proposal that will open the way for ordinary or "unqualified" investors to buy cryptocurrencies.
Central Bank of Russia previously had a very strict stance on cryptocurrencies, even proposing to ban them. But due to the current geopolitical situation and sanctions, they have changed their position. Ordinary people will now be able to buy certain liquid
cryptocurrencies, such as #Bitcoin . However, there is a limitation. Ordinary investors can buy crypto up to a maximum of 300,000 rubles per year.
