Russian interest in cryptocurrency investment has hardly increased in the past six months, while regulatory legislation is progressing
According to the "Financial Stability Review" published by the Central Bank of Russia, Russian private investors currently hold approximately 3.8 billion rubles in cryptocurrency-linked financial instruments, which is nearly unchanged from 3.7 billion rubles six months ago, indicating a stagnation in market interest. Among them, 1.7 billion rubles have flowed into crypto-linked corporate bonds, with 5,600 investors holding a total of 1.7 billion rubles in crypto futures positions, and about 3,800 people investing 354 million rubles in digital financial assets linked to Bitcoin and Ethereum. The main issuers are large banks such as Sber and VTB.
At the same time, the Moscow Exchange has successively launched Bitcoin and Ethereum futures and related ETFs, and will add Solana, Ripple, and Tron futures varieties in May 2026.
