Russia's leading stock exchanges, Moscow Exchange (MOEX) and St. Petersburg Exchange (SPB), have announced their readiness to launch cryptocurrency trading once new regulations are implemented. Both exchanges support the Central Bank of Russia's efforts to legalize crypto activities under a new regulatory framework set to take effect in 2026. They have confirmed that their existing clearing, settlement, and trading infrastructure is prepared to accommodate crypto transactions. The forthcoming regulatory framework will permit both ordinary and qualified investors to participate in crypto trading. However, ordinary investors will face an annual investment cap of 300,000 rubles, while qualified investors will have no such limits, except for privacy coins.
