Russia proposes adding crypto assets to anti-money laundering system
Russia's Investigative Committee has proposed folding crypto assets into the country's anti-money laundering infrastructure, aiming to give authorities the ability to trace digital transactions and investigate financial crimes. The proposal was presented at the 20th session of a forum and reported by TASS on Nov. 6. For traders, it signals tighter Russian oversight of crypto flows rather than an outright ban, with no immediate market-moving enforcement attached.
