According to Crypto Briefing, the Central Bank of Russia has rejected the proposal to immediately expand access to cryptocurrencies, not allowing non-qualified investors to trade cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDT. Vice President Vladimir Chistyukhin stated that after the new regulations come into effect, only these three mainstream digital currencies will be allowed for trading.

Chistyukhin pointed out that the high volatility of cryptocurrencies, market risks, and the possibility that stablecoins may be restricted or frozen are reasons for maintaining strict limits. These rules are part of Russia's digital currency legislation, which is expected to come into effect next month after being overwhelmingly passed in the first reading by the State Duma in April. Regulators also intend to maintain the proposed investment cap of 300,000 rubles.

As part of the proposed rules, both qualified and non-qualified investors must pass a mandatory knowledge test before purchasing any digital assets. From 2027, unauthorized cryptocurrency lending will be prohibited. The bill still needs to go through a second reading, a third reading, approval from the Federation Council, and presidential signing to become law.
