Deputies of the Russian State Duma, at the first reading, approved a bill that would ban the use of digital financial assets (DFA) as a means of payment on the territory of the Russian Federation.
The document was submitted to the State Duma last week by the head of the financial market committee, Anatoly Aksakov.
The bill aims to remove the risks of using the CFA as a money surrogate.
Recall that the CFA law came into force on January 1, 2021.
In May, State Duma deputies supported a bill on the taxation of transactions with such assets at the first reading. Lawyers interviewed by ForkLog emphasized that the document does not affect cryptocurrencies.
