Senator Bokova spoke about cryptocurrencies
Bitcoin is attracting more and more attention from Russian government agencies. The Ministry of Finance has already expressed its opinion (imprisonment for 4 years for using cryptocurrency), the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation (criminal liability), the Central Bank of the Russian Federation (using blockchain technology), the General Prosecutor's Office, the Bank of Russia.
It came to senators from the Federation Council. Senator Lyudmila Bokova expressed her opinion last time: “The process of implementing cryptocurrency is going on all over the world, its spread to Russia is inevitable, and it would be inappropriate to abandon its use. However, it is necessary to control this process, it is necessary to introduce a clear legislative regulation of all issues related to the release and circulation of cryptocurrencies. ”
The senator is confident that the development of the cryptocurrency system in Russia is inevitable. This process is going on all over the world, including on this subject there is a special decision of the European Court. And the regulation of Bitcoins does not necessarily begin with the introduction of criminal liability, she believes, although one should keep in mind the various offenses related to Bitcoin, including the financing of terrorism and crime.
Anonymity of users is out of the question.

First of all, “you need to think about eliminating the anonymity” of participants in the cryptocurrency turnover, Bokova said. “Perhaps this process needs to be made notifying so that the personal data of the participants in the operations are known.”
