Odaily Planet Daily News: Russia is no longer advancing plans to create a national cryptocurrency exchange, and instead is focusing on developing rules that allow private companies to establish such exchanges. On May 29, Anatoly Aksakov, chairman of the Russian State Duma Financial Markets Committee, revealed that these exchanges will be subject to local regulations. Related reports suggest that these exchanges will be regulated by the Central Bank of Russia, and the central bank will introduce new regulations for the operation of these exchanges by the end of this year. Earlier in November 2022, Russian lawmakers were drafting a draft amendment to allow the country to launch a national cryptocurrency exchange. (Crypto Slate)
