Russia Continues to Use Bitcoin for Trade Finance Despite Complicated Relationship

儘管關係複雜，俄羅斯仍繼續使用比特幣進行貿易融資

The Russian government has continued to rely on Bitcoin for trade finance, despite having a bitter-sweet relationship with the top coin. According to a recent report from Reuters, Russia’s Finance Minister, Anton Siluanov, has revealed Bitcoin’s role in international payments.

儘管與頂級貨幣的關係苦樂參半，俄羅斯政府仍繼續依賴比特幣進行貿易融資。根據路透社最近報道，俄羅斯財政部長安東·西盧阿諾夫透露了比特幣在國際支付中的作用。

Russia’s Bitcoin Embrace Amid Western Sanctions

俄羅斯在西方制裁中擁抱比特幣

The Kremlin has continued to face strict sanctions from Western nations as a result of the ongoing war in Ukraine. Before the war, the country was proactively planning to ban Bitcoin and other digital currencies. However, the turnaround came as soon as the economy started feeling the impacts of the sanctions.

由於烏克蘭持續的戰爭，克里姆林宮繼續面臨西方國家的嚴厲制裁。戰前，該國就積極計畫禁止比特幣和其他數位貨幣。然而，當經濟開始感受到製裁的影響時，情況就出現了改善。

The country’s legislative arm has had to modify some rules to permit using Bitcoin in foreign transactions. As confirmed by Siluanov, these flexible regulations have helped the country counter Western Sanctions on international payments.

該國立法機構不得不修改一些規則，以允許在國外交易中使用比特幣。正如西盧阿諾夫所證實的那樣，這些靈活的法規幫助該國對抗西方對國際支付的製裁。

The Finance Minister said some of the crypto transactions it has completed involved the Bitcoin it mines in Russia. He said, speaking in an interview with Russia 24 TV Channel, “Such transactions are already occurring. We believe they should be expanded and developed further. I am confident this will happen next year.”

財政部長表示，其已完成的一些加密交易涉及其在俄羅斯開採的比特幣。他在接受俄羅斯 24 電視頻道​​採訪時表示，「此類交易已經發生。我們認為它們應該進一步擴大和發展。我相信這會在明年發生。

Siluanov is confident that these crypto-powered transactions are the future of digital payments. Top Russian government officials, including President Vladimir Putin, are changing their stance against Bitcoin. Recently, President Putin validated Bitcoin as an asset that is out of the control of any authority. This statement aligns with the hard sanctions it is facing, fueling the need for alternative financial systems.

Siluanov 相信這些加密貨幣交易是數位支付的未來。包括總統弗拉基米爾·普丁在內的俄羅斯政府高級官員正在改變他們對比特幣的立場。最近，普丁總統確認比特幣是一種不受任何當局控制的資產。這項聲明與其面臨的嚴厲制裁相一致，加劇了對替代金融體系的需求。

Bitcoin News: Gearing Up for Mainstream Adoption

比特幣新聞：為主流採用做好準備

The country is even considering establishing a strategic Bitcoin Reserve, as reported earlier by The Coin Republic. This aligns with similar plans in other nations like the United States and Japan.

據《硬幣共和國》早些時候報道，該國甚至正在考慮建立戰略性比特幣儲備。這與美國和日本等其他國家的類似計劃一致。

In about 15 years since its launch, Bitcoin has now gained traction and acceptance in the mainstream as is evident from the news reported in recent months. Beyond the national strategic reserve plans, corporations are also eyeing Bitcoin exposures like MicroStrategy. Based on the growing evolution around Bitcoin, most countries now have Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) products that can offer investors easy onboarding to the asset.

自推出以來約 15 年，比特幣現已獲得主流的關注和接受，從最近幾個月報導的新聞中可以明顯看出。除了國家戰略儲備計畫之外，像 MicroStrategy 這樣的企業也正在關注比特幣的投資。基於比特幣的不斷發展，大多數國家現在都擁有交易所交易基金（ETF）產品，可以讓投資者輕鬆投資該資產。
