Russia Restricts Non-Professional Investors From Buying Foreign Stablecoins on July 17

According to Bits.media, Russia's final crypto regulation law added restrictions on July 17, prohibiting non-professional investors from purchasing foreign stablecoins, a group covering most of the country's residents. The law introduces the concepts of "foreign digital instruments" and "foreign digital instruments without settlement," with collateral-backed stablecoins classified under the latter. Qualified investors may purchase foreign digital instruments, while non-qualified investors can only buy specific assets from a central bank-designated list. The central bank's framework requires all transactions to be conducted under state control through exchanges or licensed exchange points.
