🚨 MACRO ALERT: Moscow Exchange (MOEX) to Launch Crypto Trading in December! 🇷🇺
Russia’s largest stock exchange is preparing to launch trading for Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Tether (USDT) starting December 1.
Here are the key details you need to know:
🔹 Trading Hours & Settlement: Trades will run alongside stock market hours (06:50 to 23:50 Moscow time) with same-day and next-day clearing via the National Clearing Centre.
🔹 Retail Limits: Non-qualified retail investors must pass a knowledge test and are capped at 300,000 rubles (~$3,700) per year via a single broker. Qualified investors face no upper cap.
🔹 The Sanctions Dilemma: Both MOEX and its clearing house operate under U.S. sanctions. Since Tether actively complies with U.S. OFAC freeze policies, analysts are watching closely to see how USDT holding/clearing will play out under sanctioned infrastructure.
Will this successfully bring Russian crypto volumes domestic, or will offshore trading remain dominant? Share your thoughts below! 👇
