CBDC

As Russia tightens its grip on digital assets, upcoming regulatory changes are raising red flags for stablecoins like Tether (USDT). The new rules, introduced by the Central Bank of Russia (CBR), aim to restrict foreign digital assets from entering the Russian market—especially those that could be frozen or censored by foreign issuers.
According to Russian authorities, foreign digital rights (FDRs)—tokens issued outside of Russia—must meet strict compliance standards to be legally traded in the country starting May 26.

New Crypto Rules Could Freeze Out Tether
The CBR has made it clear: FDRs must not be tied to securities from “unfriendly” nations and must not offer any pathway to cryptocurrencies currently banned in Russia. More importantly, the CBR emphasized that:
“Issuance terms must not imply any possibility of asset blocking by the issuer, payment agent, or controlling entity.”

That clause, experts say, directly targets Tether, the world’s most-used stablecoin.

Tether's Growing Role in Russia Draws Attention
Since 2022, the Russian digital asset market has ballooned to $10 billion in estimated value, fueled largely by cross-border use of USDT. According to Kristina Aleshina of the CBR, over 800 billion rubles ($9.9 billion) have already been raised via tokenized digital financial assets (DFAs) in Russia.
However, under the new rules, Tether’s ability to freeze user funds and enforce sanctions compliance may disqualify it from being recognized as a legal asset in Russia. This is particularly relevant after Tether froze 2.5 billion rubles worth of assets held in wallets on Garantex, a Russian crypto exchange sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury.

Analysts: Crackdown Will Push Users to Decentralized Alternatives
Legal experts warn that the CBR’s push to restrict FDR access to "qualified investors" is another step toward tightening crypto controls. But some argue the bank is powerless to fully stop peer-to-peer transactions or the use of decentralized stablecoins like DAI.
“If the pressure increases, users will simply migrate to decentralized options,” said Ignat Likhunov, founder of crypto law firm Cartesius.

Tether’s centralization remains a sticking point. Users must comply with KYC verification under U.S.-aligned sanction rules. Failure to verify can result in frozen funds, and Tether Limited can block tokens at its own discretion, Likhunov added.

Russia Eyes Its Own Stablecoin Amid Global Tensions
Russia’s dependency on Tether for over 80% of cross-border payments puts the country in a bind. While the government wants tighter control, the market still relies heavily on USDT. Some officials are now considering a Russian-issued stablecoin, pegged to an alternative fiat currency, to reduce reliance on Western financial infrastructure.
With sanctions tightening and digital finance evolving, the clash between state regulation and decentralized assets is becoming a key battlefield for Russia’s crypto future.

Scott Bessent, ứng viên Bộ trưởng Tài chính do Donald Trump đề cử, tuyên bố không ủng hộ việc Hoa Kỳ phát triển tiền tệ kỹ thuật số của ngân hàng trung ương (#CBDC ), khẳng định đây không phải là hướng đi cần thiết cho nước Mỹ.
Tuyên bố tại buổi điều trần Thượng viện
Trong buổi điều trần tại Ủy ban Tài chính Thượng viện, Bessent cho biết:
"Tôi không thấy lý do gì để Hoa Kỳ phải có một đồng tiền kỹ thuật số ngân hàng trung ương."
Ông nhấn mạnh rằng CBDC chỉ phù hợp với những quốc gia không có các lựa chọn đầu tư khác, ám chỉ việc Mỹ không cần thiết phải cạnh tranh với các nền kinh tế đang thử nghiệm loại tiền này.
Nếu được xác nhận vào vị trí Bộ trưởng Tài chính, ông Bessent có thể đặt dấu chấm hết cho các sáng kiến nghiên cứu CBDC mà chính quyền liên bang đang theo đuổi.
Trump và lập trường chống lại CBDC
Quan điểm của Bessent đồng nhất với Donald Trump, người từng tuyên bố vào năm ngoái rằng ông sẽ "không bao giờ cho phép" đồng USD kỹ thuật số nếu tái đắc cử.
Bên cạnh đó, Đảng Cộng hòa cũng phản đối mạnh mẽ CBDC, với việc Hạ viện thông qua Đạo luật Chống Giám Sát Nhà Nước vào tháng 5/2024, hạn chế việc Cục Dự trữ Liên bang phát hành tiền tệ kỹ thuật số.
Bối cảnh phát triển CBDC trên toàn cầu
Hiện nay, 134 quốc gia, chiếm 98% GDP toàn cầu, đang nghiên cứu CBDC, trong đó Trung Quốc đã thử nghiệm đồng nhân dân tệ kỹ thuật số tại các sự kiện lớn như #Olympic 2022.
Tuy nhiên, tại Mỹ, mặc dù có sự thúc đẩy từ các lãnh đạo như Bộ trưởng Tài chính Janet Yellen và các nghiên cứu từ Cục Dự trữ Liên bang, CBDC vẫn chưa tiến xa. Chủ tịch Fed Jerome Powell từng khẳng định rằng bất kỳ đồng USD kỹ thuật số nào cũng cần được Quốc hội phê duyệt.
Phản ứng từ cộng đồng tiền điện tử
CBDC đã gặp phải nhiều chỉ trích từ cộng đồng crypto, với lo ngại rằng chúng có thể tăng cường khả năng giám sát của chính phủ. Vitalik Buterin, đồng sáng lập $ETH , cũng từng bày tỏ sự thất vọng, cho rằng tiềm năng minh bạch và xác minh của CBDC đã không được thực hiện như mong đợi.

Lời cảnh báo
Dù Mỹ tạm dừng nghiên cứu CBDC, nhà đầu tư cần theo dõi sát sao diễn biến trên toàn cầu, đặc biệt tại các nền kinh tế lớn như Trung Quốc. Đồng thời, hãy cân nhắc kỹ lưỡng khi đầu tư vào thị trường crypto, nơi luôn tiềm ẩn rủi ro và sự biến động lớn.

A 23-year-old man from Kerala was arrested by the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) on Thursday for threatening to blow up the Mumbai Airport if his demands for $1 million in Bitcoin were not met.The man, identified as Arjun A., sent an email to the authorities on Wednesday evening, claiming that he had planted explosives at Terminal 2 of the airport. He demanded that the money be transferred to a specified Bitcoin address within 48 hours, or he would detonate the explosives.The ATS immediately launched an investigation and traced the email to Arjun's residence in Kerala. A team of ATS officers was dispatched to Kerala and apprehended Arjun on Thursday morning.During interrogation, Arjun confessed to sending the email and making the threats. He said that he was frustrated with his life and wanted to make a lot of money quickly. He claimed that he had not actually planted any explosives at the airport,but he was hoping that his threat would scare the authorities into giving him the money.Arjun has been charged with terrorism and criminal intimidation. He will be produced in court today.🪷$BTC $ETH $BNB #BTC #Onchain #cbdc #India #IndiaArrests

The recent pullback of sats has led to a decline in the entire BTC ecosystem. As a leader in the BTC ecosystem, sats has earned respect in the market.Sats entered the hands of DogeWhale several months ago during its minting phase. The fact that DogeWhale was willing to invest millions of dollars on equal terms with retail investors demonstrates the whale's considerable strength and passion.Sats' rise to a market cap of 500 million USD is not solely attributable to a few large holders and retail investors. It is the result of a powerful combination of DogeWhale's substantial funds and the enthusiasm of large and small holders. The success of ordi in reaching a market cap of 600 million USD in May was driven by early-stage manipulation and rallying at low prices by the whales. Sats' minting cost is several hundred times more than ordi, and such a massive market cap requires more time to adjust.A complete market comprises whales, large holders, and retail investors, each playing a different role. Throughout history, every successful asset has gone through the early-stage selling by large holders for profit and the subsequent turmoil caused by retail investors. Once sats weathers this storm, it will become a mainstream currency, and the future is limitless.We can see that the project behind sats, unisat, chose the independent currency sats. With the shadow of okex behind unisat, okex has overtly and covertly promoted sats several times, and binance is eager to position unisat as a backup. The trend is already clear. One point to ponder: Why did DogeWhale choose sats?The market potential of sats should align with unisat's intentions and benchmark against smart contract blockchains such as ETH, ADA, and BNB. The unified slogan is that sats has the potential of a thousand times, enabling the market to establish an expectation of sats breaking through a market cap of 2.5 trillion USD someday.Assuming sats benchmarks against meme coins like Doge and Shib, it has no advantage compared to rats. Rats have a simple and easy-to-understand cultural attribute that is more in line with public sentiment and speculation.The sats community needs to unify sats' cultural attributes, keeping them consistent with BTC's cultural attributes. This will help attract the high-net-worth population in the crypto community. BTC represents the high-end, and understanding BTC's cultural attributes requires a certain level of knowledge and learning. Celebrities such as Musk, Dorsey, other public figures, and even presidents of countries like El Salvador and Argentina are very familiar with BTC culture. Although this group is not large in number, their influence is extraordinary, and their funds are substantial, far beyond the reach of retail investors. If these figures express favorable views on sats publicly, it could immediately take sats to the moon.The image that sats shapes in the crypto community should be: simple yet sophisticated. High-end and classy.After all, who doesn't like high-end things?The opening of the bull market is undoubtedly linked to the successful approval of the US Bitcoin spot ETF. ARKB is poised to be the first Bitcoin spot ETF approved by the US SEC in the upcoming January 10th decision gaining significant attention within the BRC20 community. Positioned as a promising dark horse, ARKB, a notable BRC20 project, is likely to capture the community's interest. Missing out on sats shouldn't lead to missing out on BRC20's ARKB. With a disclosed annual fee of 0.80%, $ARKB stands as the pioneer openly declaring such costs for a Bitcoin spot ETF issuer. Their determination is evident, but investment decisions should be approached with caution.#etf #BTC #ARKB是BRC20一道靓丽的风景线美国sec批准的第一个比特币现货ETF， #cbdc #Onchain $BTC $ETH $BNB

Bitcoin is flying again, and Ethereum has broken $2,000! This could be the start of altcoin season. 🤑
Here are five old coins that I'm personally holding:
XRP (XRP) 💸 If XRP wins its lawsuit against the SEC, I think it will absolutely fly. 🚀Moon World (MOON) 🌎 This project is under the radar, but it has a $3 million market cap and connections to Coinbase. 👀**V-Chain (V)⛓️ Everyone has forgotten about V-Chain, but it's still in my portfolio. 🤫Polkadot (DOT) 🌸 Polkadot is a chain that continues to build even in the bear market. I think people have lost interest, but that interest is going to flood back in. 🌊Solana (SOL) ☀️ Solana was beaten down a little too much from the FTX crash. I think it's undervalued. 💎
