The Central Bank of the Russian Federation has allowed exchanges to trade Bitcoin, Ether, and the US dollar connection as of November 17. "Only the most liquid assets were included in the list, the criteria for which are determined by law. The selection took into account market capitalization, average daily trading volume and pricing history on foreign exchanges - this must be at least 5 years," the statement said. It will be possible to purchase these cryptocurrencies in Russia, including by unqualified investors. The limit on purchases through one intermediary is no more than 300 thousand rubles per year. Accredited investors will have access to all crypto assets without restrictions.
