Putin Aims for Crypto Mining Regulation: Report




Putin aims for crypto mining regulation


Russian President Vladimir Putin is backing a proposal that aims to regulate crypto mining in the country.

And the increase in crypto mining in the country leads some of the regions to face acute power shortages.

However, it seems that Putin might be considering keeping crypto mining active in Russia, but with proper regulations and management put in place first.

As of now, Russia's official stance on the crypto sector remains awaited.
