俄羅斯現在使用比特幣和其他加密貨幣進行國際支付以對抗西方制裁

俄羅斯目前正在使用比特幣和其他加密貨幣進行國際支付，此舉旨在對抗西方制裁的影響。

Russia has turned to Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies for international payments, a move aimed at countering the impact of Western sanctions. Finance Minister Anton Siluanov announced the development on Russia 24 television.

俄羅斯已轉向使用比特幣和其他加密貨幣進行國際支付，此舉旨在對抗西方制裁的影響。財政部長安東·西盧阿諾夫在俄羅斯24小時電視台宣布了這項進展。

“Sanctions have disrupted trade with key partners like China and Turkey, as local banks are hesitant to engage due to potential scrutiny from Western regulators,” Siluanov explained.

「制裁擾亂了與中國和土耳其等主要合作夥伴的貿易，因為當地銀行因可能受到西方監管機構的審查而猶豫不決，」西盧安諾夫解釋道。

Earlier this year, Russia legalized the use of cryptocurrencies in foreign trade and introduced regulations for Bitcoin mining. As a leading Bitcoin miner globally, the country is now utilizing its resources to facilitate these payments.

今年早些時候，俄羅斯將加密貨幣在對外貿易的使用合法化，並推出了比特幣挖礦法規。作為全球領先的比特幣礦商，該國目前正在利用其資源來促進這些支付。

“Bitcoins mined in Russia are already being used in trade, and this practice will expand further next year,” Siluanov stated, highlighting the potential of digital currencies in reshaping international payments.

西盧阿諾夫表示：「俄羅斯開採的比特幣已經用於貿易，這種做法明年將進一步擴大。」他強調了數位貨幣在重塑國際支付方面的潛力。

President Vladimir Putin has also criticized the U.S. for politicizing the dollar, a move he said is driving countries to explore alternatives. He specifically mentioned Bitcoin, highlighting its decentralized nature and worldwide appeal.

俄羅斯總統普丁也批評美國將美元政治化，他表示此舉正在推動各國探索替代方案。他特別提到了比特幣，強調了它的去中心化性質和全球吸引力。

Russia's pro-crypto trade stance contrasts sharply with its recent decision to ban Bitcoin mining in 10 regions within the country until 2031.

俄羅斯支持加密貨幣貿易的立場與其最近決定在 2031 年之前禁止該國 10 個地區進行比特幣挖礦的決定形成鮮明對比。

Despite the ban, Russia remains a global leader in the cryptocurrency mining industry. By legalizing crypto usage in trade and managing the local impact of mining activities, Russia aims to offset the financial difficulties created by Western sanctions in response to the Ukraine conflict.

儘管有禁令，俄羅斯仍然是加密貨幣採礦業的全球領導者。透過使貿易中的加密貨幣使用合法化並管理採礦活動對當地的影響，俄羅斯旨在抵消西方因烏克蘭衝突而實施的製裁造成的財務困難。
