He clarified that with the introduction of the next restrictions, Russians may lose the opportunity to store their cryptocurrencies and trade them on centralized crypto exchanges.

“But this is only at first glance.

After all, our compatriots before that could keep no more than € 10 thousand in accounts on the exchanges of Binance and others that have received recognition in the community, and now they are deprived of such an opportunity,” the expert noted.

“The second option is to transfer to exchanges that do not have a license in Europe, for example, OKX. But difficulties may arise here, because in Russia any settlements between Russians in cryptocurrencies can be banned, and the site of the OKX exchange, which is quite popular among Russians, has already been banned,” Pan said.
