Russia wants to introduce digital rubles by 2024

 


The Bank of Russia is making great strides with the introduction of its planned central bank digital currency (CBDC), so the digital ruble should be available in a few years if possible.


As the Russian central bank has accordingly announced , it is now planned to start connecting all banks and financial institutions to the technical platform for the digital ruble by 2024. Completion by then would definitely have priority, because the next presidential elections in the country are in March 2024 and Vladimir Putin could then possibly throw the new Russian digital currency into the balance.


Until then, the central bank wants to run through several tests, including “real money transactions” from customer to customer and payments from customers to companies and vice versa.


In 2023, it also wants to conduct beta tests with smart contracts for trading transactions based on the digital ruble, but these tests should initially only take place on a small scale.


According to the central bank, the introduction of the CBDC is to take place in a multi-stage process, with new tests and features being launched every year. As soon as the Russian Ministry of Finance has also created the necessary conditions, direct payments to government agencies should also be possible.


By 2025 there should also be an offline version of the central bank digital currency, by which time non-bank financial service providers should also be connected to the infrastructure of the digital ruble.


"The multi-stage process of introducing the digital ruble will allow market participants to slowly adapt to the new realities," the central bank explains in this regard.


In addition, the Bank of Russia will cooperate with other central banks developing their own digital currencies to improve cross-border payments and foreign currency trading.


Russia held its first digital ruble tests in February 2022. A corresponding roadmap for the CBDC was previously announced at the end of 2021. As a result, a group of 12 Russian banks was formed , including Sber, VTB, Tinkoff Bank and others.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin

MSP Recovery and Tokenology aim to optimize healthcare with the help of Polygon

  MSP Recovery LLC, a Miami, US-based healthcare provider with an estimated enterprise value of $32.6 billion, is partnering with Web3 company Tokenology to jointly launch a new blockchain platform called Lifechain. Lifechain wants to leverage the verifiable and transparent nature of blockchain technology to aggregate medical care claims, medical expense reports and patient data and streamline their processing. For this purpose, MSP Recovery launched its own LifeWallet in January, which already has 1 million users. In addition to the wallet and blockchain platform, an associated crypto token called LifeCoin is also used.

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne
