🇷🇺 Russian authorities plan to restrict access for unqualified investors to some cryptocurrencies that the authorities deem risky — even USDT and BNB could fall under these restrictions, buying them will not be prohibited, but additional fees, risk warnings, and other protective measures may be introduced.

The main argument of officials is — issuers of such coins are capable of freezing user assets. A complete ban was discussed, but the market opposed it, so the authorities decided to leave access to these assets, strengthening control and investor protection.
