🇷🇺 Russia’s largest bank is about to sell Bitcoin, but there’s a “purchase limit”

Sberbank received approval from the Bank of Russia on October 12: starting December 1, users will be able to trade BTC, ETH, and USDT directly through apps such as SberBank Online.

The backdrop is a new digital currency law that took effect on September 1. Exchanges are now under the central bank’s oversight, and the rules are quite specific:

🔹 Retail investors must pass a knowledge test before buying
🔹 Each intermediary is limited to 300,000 rubles in purchases per year
🔹 Paying with cryptocurrency remains prohibited within Russia
🔹 Around 110 million users are covered

My take: this isn’t “fully embracing” crypto—it’s opening the door while keeping it on a leash. You can buy and hold, but you can’t spend it as money; you can participate, but only through a narrow annual allowance. Regulators want to draw demand away from gray-market channels and back into the banking system, where it can be monitored and controlled.

For the industry, opening access to a user base of around 100 million is an important source of growth. But the limits and testing also mean that near-term inflows are unlikely to be huge, so don’t treat this as an immediate price-pumping catalyst.

Which model would you prefer: a bank channel with restrictions and limits, or an exchange with freedom but greater personal risk? Let’s discuss in the comments 👇

Russia's largest bank Sberbank just got the official green light from the central bank

It landed on both the Bank of Russia crypto exchange operator register and the digital custody register

Right now it is testing BTC ETH and USDT buys sells and deposits inside the Sberbank Online app

Full client access is planned for December 1

The central bank will decide the final list of tradable coins

Crypto payments stay banned in Russia

Starting July 2027 all trades must run through registered intermediaries

Retail investors face a 300000 ruble yearly cap and must pass a knowledge test

A major bank handling both trading and custody is the kind of infrastructure that changes how a market operates

Russia's biggest bank just got approved to run crypto exchange services 🇷🇺

On Monday 12 Oct 2026, the Bank of Russia added Sberbank to its register of organizations authorized to exchange digital currencies (crypto.news and Coingape, both 12 Oct).

What is confirmed:
- Sberbank is one of nine registered exchange operators
- Earlier in October it also entered the digital depository register
- Launch of its first crypto products is planned for 1 Dec 2026
- Services are planned through apps customers already use, such as SberBank Online, instead of a new platform

What is expected, but not part of the approval itself:
- Earlier coverage says $BTC , $ETH and $USDT are expected among the first supported assets
- Sberbank has said it wants to accept them as loan collateral, if regulators allow it

Limits that matter:
- For non-qualified investors, the general framework allows buying up to 300,000 rubles of eligible crypto per year per intermediary (crypto.news)
- Crypto payments for ordinary domestic goods and services stay prohibited, while cross-border settlements are allowed
- Sberbank has been under full US blocking sanctions since April 2022, and OFAC applies sanctions rules to crypto too, so outside Russia this does not change the picture for most users

This is not financial advice. Regulation and launch dates can change, so check official sources before acting. Do your own research.

My take: when a huge state-linked bank enters regulated crypto trading, it shows adoption is going mainstream even in tightly controlled markets. Real impact will depend on the limits and sanctions.

Does a big bank entering crypto make the market safer, or just more controlled? 👇

Russia’s largest bank, Sberbank, has been authorized to enter the crypto trading market. The bank has been added to the Bank of Russia’s register of crypto exchange institutions, meaning it is permitted to buy and sell digital currencies on its own behalf. The register currently includes ten institutions. Notably, Sberbank was previously added to the register of digital asset depositories. Along with VTB, it is one of only two institutions currently listed in both registers, allowing it to hold crypto assets for clients and process their transfers. Russia’s banking sector is accelerating its development of digital asset infrastructure. (Source: CryptoPotato)

Sberbank, the largest lender in Russia, has received authorization from the central bank to facilitate cryptocurrency trading. The bank is preparing to launch services that include Bitcoin, Ether, and Tether USDt on its existing digital platforms, including SberBank Online and SberInvestments.

The planned launch is targeted for December 1, 2026, though the bank noted that the final timeline depends on further regulations from the central bank. Sberbank has already begun testing functions such as buying, selling, depositing, and withdrawing crypto through its mobile application.

This move follows new regulatory rules that went into effect on September 1, which brought exchange operators and digital custodians under the oversight of the Bank of Russia. While the bank can now provide trading services, the use of cryptocurrencies for paying for goods and services remains prohibited in the country.

To avoid pressure from EU and US sanctions, Russia’s largest bank plans to launch a compliant crypto trading system in December

According to Cointelegraph, Russia’s Sberbank announced plans to build crypto-asset trading infrastructure and launch a digital custody vault by December 1, to comply with Russia’s new crypto regulatory regime. The system will cover compliant trading, asset custody, and settlement services.

Alexander Vedyakhin, Sberbank’s first deputy chairman, said the digital custody vault will record users’ ownership of crypto assets. Most transaction processes can be completed outside the main blockchain, while the bank will simultaneously operate an active wallet to handle customers’ needs for storing, retrieving, and transferring crypto assets.

Russia’s first crypto bill completed review this month and will take effect on September 1. The bill also divides market participants into five categories—exchanges, brokers, asset managers, custodians, and exchange service providers—and specifies participation standards for the compliant market.

The bill also grants the Bank of Russia broad supervisory authority and sets crypto asset entry thresholds: an average market capitalization exceeding 5 trillion rubles over two years, and daily trading value exceeding 1 trillion rubles.

Notably, this move comes as the EU and the US continue to step up sanctions targeting Russia-related crypto activities. Against this backdrop, the Bank of Russia has to accelerate the development of a comprehensive legislative framework for the crypto market.

In addition, the EU’s latest round of sanctions also includes HTX (formerly Huobi) among 18 Russia-related crypto service entity listings, aiming to prohibit EU market participants from trading with it;

Moreover, back in May of this year, the UK had already imposed similar sanctions on HTX, deeming it to provide a financial conduit for Russia to evade sanctions.

Overall, with Russia rolling out a compliant crypto framework and major banks entering the crypto business, on the one hand it provides new channels for domestic companies’ cross-border trade settlement. On the other hand, it can help offset restrictions on capital flows brought by EU and US financial sanctions.
