Russia President Vladimir Putin has signed a law legalizing Bitcoin and cryptocurrency mining, which will come into effect in November. This new regulation aims to provide a legal framework for digital currency mining activities throughout the country.
Legal entities and individual entrepreneurs registered in the Ministry of Digital Development’s registry will be able to officially mine Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies with the law. This will create a new economic activity area in Russia for both local and international investors.

Russian citizens who are not individual entrepreneurs will also be able to benefit from this law. However, in order for these individuals to be able to mine, they will need to not exceed the energy consumption limits set by the government. As long as they comply with these limits, they will be able to mine digital currencies without being registered in the registry.
The energy consumption limits set by the government aim to minimize the potential negative impact of mining activities on the country’s energy infrastructure. These limits will help ensure the country’s overall energy security by controlling individual miners’ energy consumption.

The new law signed by Russian President Putin is considered one of Russia’s important steps in the field of digital economy and technology. The legalization of cryptocurrency mining will attract the attention of investors both locally and globally and will revitalize the country’s digital economy. In addition, this regulation will strengthen Russia’s position in digital currencies and blockchain technologies.
After the law signed by Putin, Bitcoin recorded a very serious increase and exceeded $58,000. Although profit sales occurred after this price movement in Bitcoin, its ability to hold on to the $58,000 band will turn the market outlook positive.
