BRICS Nation Russia Prepares To Open Bitcoin and Crypto Trading for Retail and Qualified Investors

The central bank of Russia is gearing up to enable both qualified and retail investors to purchase crypto assets.

In a statement, the Bank of Russia says it has prepared a framework for regulating cryptocurrency. 

The move will greenlight the trading of digital currencies and stablecoins but still prohibit using these assets to pay within the country.

“The Bank of Russia still considers cryptocurrencies a high-risk tool…When deciding to invest in crypto assets, investors should be aware that they are taking the risks of potential loss of their funds.”

Qualified and unqualified investors will follow separate rules when purchasing crypto assets.

Unqualified investors can purchase most liquid cryptocurrencies, the criteria for which will be later established by legislation, after passing a risk awareness test. Their transactions will be limited to 300,000 rubles, or about $3,800 per year, through one intermediary.

Meanwhile, qualified investors will be able to buy crypto assets without volume restrictions after passing the test. The rule applies to all cryptocurrencies except anonymous tokens.

Residents of the BRICS co-founding country will be allowed to purchase cryptocurrencies abroad using their foreign accounts. They can also transfer previously purchased cryptocurrencies through Russian intermediaries abroad provided they notify the tax service of these transactions.

The plan is to prepare the legislative framework by July 1st, 2026 and introduce the liabilities for intermediaries engaged in illegal activities by July 1st, 2027.

China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise

The post China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise China’s internet regulator has ordered the country’s biggest technology firms, including Alibaba and ByteDance, to stop purchasing Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D GPUs. According to the Financial Times, the move shuts down the last major channel for mass supplies of American chips to the Chinese market. Why Beijing Halted Nvidia Purchases Chinese companies had planned to buy tens of thousands of RTX Pro 6000D accelerators and had already begun testing them in servers. But regulators intervened, halting the purchases and signaling stricter controls than earlier measures placed on Nvidia’s H20 chip. Image: Nvidia An audit compared Huawei and Cambricon processors, along with chips developed by Alibaba and Baidu, against Nvidia’s export-approved products. Regulators concluded that Chinese chips had reached performance levels comparable to the restricted U.S. models. This assessment pushed authorities to advise firms to rely more heavily on domestic processors, further tightening Nvidia’s already limited position in China. China’s Drive Toward Tech Independence The decision highlights Beijing’s focus on import substitution — developing self-sufficient chip production to reduce reliance on U.S. supplies. “The signal is now clear: all attention is focused on building a domestic ecosystem,” said a representative of a leading Chinese tech company. Nvidia had unveiled the RTX Pro 6000D in July 2025 during CEO Jensen Huang’s visit to Beijing, in an attempt to keep a foothold in China after Washington restricted exports of its most advanced chips. But momentum is shifting. Industry sources told the Financial Times that Chinese manufacturers plan to triple AI chip production next year to meet growing demand. They believe “domestic supply will now be sufficient without Nvidia.” What It Means for the Future With Huawei, Cambricon, Alibaba, and Baidu stepping up, China is positioning itself for long-term technological independence. Nvidia, meanwhile, faces…
