DeepTide TechFlow News – On March 17, according to Kommersant, Russia's central bank has submitted a proposal to the government to allow digital financial assets (ЦФА) to circulate on open networks such as Ethereum. The relevant legislative draft is planned to be introduced in the summer of 2026. This measure aims to attract foreign capital from Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America against the backdrop of sanctions and promote cross-border settlements. Russia's ЦФА market has grown from 44 billion rubles to 1.5 trillion rubles over the past three years, but currently remains primarily driven by domestic demand. Analysts predict that if the relevant regulations are implemented, the market size is expected to reach 12 to 13 trillion rubles by 2030.
