🔥💥Bitcoin has broken above the $78.1K True Market Mean, a significant on-chain milestone indicating a potential transition from bear market conditions. $BTC

This legislation formally recognizes crypto as taxable property, authorizes cross-border settlements, and empowers the Central Bank to license exchanges while curbing retail investments through strict limits. 

This legislation moves Russia away from its previous "legal grey area" by establishing a formal framework for cryptocurrency recognition, though it remains highly restrictive for everyday users.
