BREAKING: China Enforces Total Ban on Crypto Trading and Mining
China has officially declared a nationwide ban on all cryptocurrency activities, escalating its crackdown on the digital asset space.
🔒 What’s Now Banned:
– All forms of crypto trading (spot, OTC, futures)
– Mining operations across the country
– DeFi access, even via VPNs
This move marks one of the strongest anti-crypto stances globally, with heavy implications for miners, investors, and on-chain activity.
Will this trigger capital outflows — or fuel innovation elsewhere?

⚡ Irkutsk Region vs. Mining: Is the Ban Becoming Lifelong? 🚫💰
In Russia, the already strict restrictions on mining may become permanent – the Irkutsk Region plans to introduce a permanent ban instead of a temporary one. 😳
🔌 The reason? An acute shortage of electricity. They have already freed up 300 MW, but this is still not enough.
🚧 Since the beginning of the year, Russia has had an autumn-winter ban on mining until 2031 ❄, and now the region wants to go further.
🤔 What does this mean?
❌ Miners will lose one of the cheapest regions for crypto mining.
❌ Mining leaving = less income to the economy.
❌ Other regions may follow suit and tighten the bans.
📉 Can Russia completely abandon mining? Or is this just a local story? Share your opinion in the comments! 💬👇

3 New Russian Regions Seek to Ban Crypto Mining ⛏️❌
Crypto mining in Russia is facing more pressure as three new regions — Karelia (north), Penza Oblast, and parts of Khakassia — have requested permission from Moscow to impose mining bans, according to the country’s energy ministry.
These requests will be reviewed in May, but they follow a growing trend: Over a dozen regions have already restricted or banned mining, especially during winter months when electricity demand spikes. Some affected areas include:
Dagestan
Ingushetia
North Caucasus regions
Annexed Ukrainian territories
Parts of Buryatia & Transbaikal region
In a major move, the government has imposed a permanent ban on mining in southern Irkutsk Oblast until 2031, citing strain on the power grid. While this freed up 320 MW of capacity, it also caused a $9.6M loss for the regional utility provider.
Industry Concerns
Legal mining farms are warning the ban might push operations underground, increasing pressure on residential power networks. With crypto mining now recognized as a legal business in Russia, the Federal Tax Service has 722 registered mining operators as of April 1.
Top regions with the highest legal mining activity:
Krasnoyarsk Krai
Irkutsk Oblast
Tatarstan
The future of mining in Russia remains uncertain. Will more bans follow? Stay tuned!

⚡️ Miners vs Electricity in Abkhazia: Hot Times 🔥
In Abkhazia, the electricity shortage has reached a new level! Shocking reports indicate that neighbors are burning each other's ASIC miners due to the lack of energy 🏠💥. Yes, such stories are no longer just tales, but reality.
📜 The Parliament of Abkhazia has intensified measures — a bill has been passed for a complete ban on cryptocurrency mining. If finally adopted, criminal liability will threaten those who mine crypto. 🛑
⏳ Interestingly, the ban on mining has been in effect since 2018, but there were still loopholes — electricity could be used from private power plants. Now, it seems that they want to put a big and fat cross on crypto mining.
🧐 The situation looks like a real energy crisis — and it makes one wonder: how far are governments willing to go in the fight against unauthorized mining?
What do you think, friends? Are such methods of solving the problem justified? Or is this already going too far? 🧐

RUSSIA CRACKS DOWN ON CRYPTO MINING WITH NEW RESTRICTIONS
The Russian government is tightening its grip on cryptocurrency mining with sweeping new regulations aimed at curbing illegal activity, reducing energy strain, and boosting control.
Following a cabinet meeting led by Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak, the Ministry of Energy has been tasked with finalizing a framework that targets unauthorized mining operations and unregistered consumption.
Key Measures Being Introduced:
• Remote Power Disconnection: Authorities will gain the ability to remotely cut off mining farms during peak electricity demand or energy shortages.
• Harsher Penalties: Violators of mining bans, illegal grid connections, and electricity theft will face increased legal and financial consequences.
• Low-Priority Power Status: Miners will be classified in a new “fourth-tier consumer” category, meaning reduced supply reliability.
• Redistribution of Power: Energy saved from curbing mining will be rerouted to socially critical infrastructure like hospitals and schools.
President Vladimir Putin acknowledged the unintended consequences of mining growth at a recent economic forum:
“We had surpluses in some regions… then they began mining. We had to act.”
Additional Proposals Underway:
• Mandatory Registration: Mining equipment imports may soon require labeling and certification, with plans for a national device register.
• Tax Surveillance: The Federal Tax Service, Energy Ministry, and Ministry of Digital Development are collaborating to identify miners based on electricity usage.
• Partial Bans Already Active: Over a dozen regions — including parts of Siberia, North Caucasus, and occupied Ukraine — are under partial or full mining bans, some extended to six-year prohibitions.
Although cryptocurrency mining was legalized in 2024, fewer than one-third of commercial miners have registered with the tax authorities. While amateur miners under 6,000 kWh/month are currently exempt, enforcement is increasing.
In June, Rosseti, Russia’s main grid operator, announced a partnership with telecom companies to track illegal mining using internet traffic data.
Outlook:
Russia’s evolving stance reflects a global trend toward tighter regulation of crypto mining, especially in energy-stressed economies. The new framework is expected to be finalized and begin rollout by the end of Q3 2025.

🔴 Kuwait bans Bitcoin mining — 'a threat to the power grid and safety'
— The Ministry of Interior of Kuwait has announced a ban on BTC mining, calling it illegal and dangerous.
— In a statement dated April 22, it was noted:
• violates the criminal code and IT laws,
• creates overload on the power grid,
• threatens public safety.
📉 BTC dropped by -1.12% following the news.
Earlier, in 2023, the country had already banned cryptocurrency exchanges and investments in crypto.
What about other countries? — In Belarus and Pakistan, they are exploring how to direct excess energy to mining — the opposite approach.
Market opinion: — Such bans do not have a global impact on BTC,
— But they increase the migration of miners to places with more lenient regulators and cheaper electricity.
