</ul> 
Russian President Vladimir Putin recently discussed the future of cryptocurrencies, highlighting their potential during a panel discussion. He asserted that Bitcoin (BTC) and other crypto currencies would evolve, emphasizing their ability to reduce transaction costs and increase reliability. 
During the event, Putin stated: 
<blockquote>
 “Who can ban Bitcoin? No one. And who can prohibit the use of other electronic payment services? No one.”&nbsp;
</blockquote> 
He explained that the nature of these new technologies makes them resistant to prohibition. 
Putin elaborated on the inevitable development of these financial assets, regardless of the future status of the dollar.&nbsp; 
<blockquote>
 “These tools will develop one way or another because everyone is striving to reduce costs and increase reliability,” he remarked.
</blockquote> 
The Russian leader has shown support for the cryptocurrency ecosystem through policy actions. Recently, he signed legislation recognizing Bitcoin as property and another law legalizing Bitcoin mining within Russian territory, as <a href="https://www.ethnews.com/russia-implements-tax-reforms-on-bitcoin-mining-and-crypto-transactions/">reported by ETHNews</a>. 
Cryptocurrencies have served as a strategic tool for Russia to circumvent <a href="https://www.ethnews.com/russias-crypto-gambit-can-digital-currencies-break-sanctions/">Western sanctions</a> imposed since the country’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. These digital assets have enabled Russia to continue international transactions during financial isolation. 
Russia ranks seventh on the global cryptocurrency adoption index compiled by Chainalysis. This index measures the usability and acceptance of <a href="https://www.ethnews.com/russias-digital-ruble-rollout-faces-critical-setback/">digital currencies</a>, indicating a favorable environment for the development and use of cryptocurrencies in the Eurasian country.
