Record: kaal:position:2026-08-08-125 · 2026-08-08

Legal regulation of digital financial assets in Russia recommends adding a legal definition of cryptocurrency system and a classification of digital currency to Federal Law 259-FZ.

The abstract does not endorse Kaal's definition or specify the categories the Russian law should adopt.
