According to BlockBeats, Russia's major securities exchanges, Moscow Exchange (MOEX) and Saint Petersburg Exchange (SPB), have announced their readiness to launch cryptocurrency trading following the implementation of new regulations. The exchanges are supporting the Russian Central Bank's efforts to legalize crypto activities under a new regulatory framework. They have established robust clearing, settlement, and trading technology infrastructures and plan to initiate crypto trading as soon as the regulations take effect in 2026. The framework will permit both ordinary and qualified investors to participate, with a yearly investment cap of 300,000 rubles for ordinary investors, while qualified investors will face no such restrictions, excluding privacy coins.
