Vladimir Chistyukhin, First Deputy Governor of the Bank of Russia, said that the proposed cryptocurrency bill’s restrictions on the use of non-custodial wallets do not apply to international settlements.
Bitcoin Bitcoin News said on X that Russia plans, starting July 1, 2027 to require individuals to conduct P2P digital asset transactions through licensed intermediaries and restrict transfers to non-custodial wallets.
PANews, citing market sources, reported that the U.S. Treasury withdrew proposed cryptocurrency monitoring rules targeting non-custodial wallets and CVC crypto mixers; no official document has yet substantiated this.
