The Ministry of Energy advocates the legalization of mining in Russia

Options for legalizing mining in Russia have been discussed in the government over the past few years.

The Ministry of Energy is one of the supportersspeedy development of legislation for this industry. The department believes that citizens and companies mining cryptocurrency must pay taxes to the budget.

Last Saturday in Irkutsk, the first conference of miners in our country was held, at which Evgeny Grabchak, who holds the post of Deputy Minister of Energy of the Russian Federation, spoke.

He emphasized that the legal vacuum in the field of crypto mining regulation should be eliminated as soon as possible.

If the state wants to control the industry andcreate conditions for its development in Russia, then we need a regulatory framework that will ensure the transparency of mining. Most likely, regional rather than federal authorities should allocate energy consumption quotas for miners.

Grabchak said:

«Probably, this should be done not at the federal level, but at the regional level [capacity quotas]. And it is necessary to synchronize regulation with plans for the development of regions and industry.»
