TechFlame reports that Russia's Ministry of Finance is actively considering significantly simplifying the entry requirements for digital asset investors. The proposed simplification measures are expected to expand the scope of participants in Russia's experimental legal regime (ELR) for cryptocurrency transactions. This would lower the strict "super-qualified" investor threshold—which currently requires substantial assets or income, such as an investment amount of 100 million rubles or an annual income of 50 million rubles—allowing more Russian citizens to legally enter the cryptocurrency market.
