俄罗斯能源部提案将限制特殊地区的加密货币挖矿活动

尽管当局已宣布加密采矿业与俄罗斯相关，但他们的行动表明，发展其他重要活动优先于这些活动。

The Russian Energy Ministry has proposed limiting crypto mining activities in certain special regions that are affected by energy shortages.

俄罗斯能源部提议限制某些受能源短缺影响的特殊地区的加密货币挖矿活动。

Following the enactment of the recent national cryptocurrency law, authorities now have the right to impose such a ban.

在最近颁布的国家加密货币法之后，当局现在有权实施此类禁令。

The proposal would start applying these restrictions this upcoming December.

该提案将于今年 12 月开始实施这些限制。

An unidentified source confirmed the proposal, stating that it will be discussed at a meeting of the governmental commission on November 18.

一位不愿透露姓名的消息人士证实了这一提议，并称该提议将在 11 月 18 日的政府委员会会议上进行讨论。

The Energy Ministry noted that the possible upcoming restrictions were justified due to forecasted energy shortage periods in some regions.

能源部指出，由于预计某些地区将出现能源短缺，因此可能实施的限制是合理的。

The Ministry explained it was prudent to “ban the mining of digital currency in areas facing critical regulatory and fiscal parameters and regions with subsidized electricity prices during forecasted shortages.”

该部解释说，“禁止在面临关键监管和财政参数的地区以及在预计电力短缺期间有电价补贴的地区开采数字货币”是谨慎的做法。

The Irkutsk Region, Buryatia, the Trans-Baikal region, Karachay-Circassian region, the Kabardino-Balkaria region, the North Ossetia-Alania region, Ingushetia, Chechnya, Dagestan, the Kherson region, the Zaporizhzhia region, the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) and the Lugansk People’s Republic (LPR) are among the locations that will be likely affected by this measure.

伊尔库茨克州、布里亚特、跨贝加尔湖州、卡拉恰伊-切尔克斯州、卡巴尔达-巴尔卡尔州、北奥塞梯-阿拉尼亚州、印古什、车臣、达吉斯坦、赫尔松州、扎波罗热州、顿涅茨克人民共和国）和卢甘斯克人民共和国（LPR）可能会受到这一措施的影响。

These would hit mining operators in these regions from December 1, 2024, to March 15, 2025.

这些将从 2024 年 12 月 1 日到 2025 年 3 月 15 日对这些地区的挖矿运营商造成影响。

Then, mining would be banned in these locations from November to March each year at least until 2031.

然后，每年 11 月至 3 月将禁止在这些地点采矿，至少到 2031 年为止。

The decision to restrict crypto mining activities at a state level is no surprise.

在州一级限制加密货币挖矿活动的决定并不令人意外。

Last month, Russian Deputy Energy Minister Yevgeny Grabchak stated these restrictions would have to be in place due to the power shortages in regions like Siberia.

上个月，俄罗斯能源副部长叶夫根尼·格拉布恰克表示，由于西伯利亚等地区电力短缺，必须实施这些限制。

At the time, he noted the Russian state would not be able to guarantee “large capacities to anyone in the long term until 2030.”

当时，他指出俄罗斯政府无法保证“在 2030 年之前长期向任何人提供大量产能”。
