Entrepreneurs of the Russian Federation are asked to adopt cryptocurrency legislation

Russian entrepreneurs are calling on the authorities to speed up the adoption of a package of laws on regulating relations incryptocurrency industry. The Izvestia newspaper reported this and noted that a corresponding letter was sent to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The letter was drafted by the Russian UnionIndustrialists and Entrepreneurs (RSPP), which earlier, on the contrary, called on the authorities not to rush into legalizing the cryptosphere.

First of all, it is necessary to introduce licensing of market players, which will increase transparency and ensure the security of transactions with digital assets.
