The Moscow Exchange will launch trading with the BTC / RUB instrument, which will reflect the rate of bitcoin to the ruble, the head of the Supervisory Board of the exchange Sergey Shvetsov told RBC Investments. The timing of the auction, he did not specify.

The Moscow Exchange will also launch the bitcoin exchange rate to the quasi-dollar, which is now traded under the ticker USDRUB TOM. We are going to launch BTC/USDx and BTC/RUB pairs, as well as with other digital currencies. Participants will be able to apply for both rubles and quasi-dollars, the top manager said.

Mr. Shvetsov said that the implementation is carried out by the Central Bank. While in Russia there is not a single approved license for the activities of the crypto depository, and there is no regulatory framework for the issuance of such licenses. The press service of the Central Bank said that exchanges have the right to conduct cryptocurrency trading, and the regulator expects that such operations will be organized.

In September, the Central Bank proposed to introduce strict regulations to regulate the investments of banks and their clients in cryptocurrency. The regulator explained that digital assets carry a number of specific risks that must be considered. Experts considered the proposed measures prohibitive.

Details – in the material “Kommersant” “Crypt measured the percentage”.
