Russia's Deputy Finance Minister has rebuffed claims that cryptocurrencies will be included in the National Wealth Fund, emphasizing the need for stable assets due to high volatility. He stated that crypto is unsuitable for sovereign reserves, which must allow quick liquidation. While Russia is exploring taxation policies and has entertained the idea of a crypto reserve, Kolychev noted that no discussions are currently underway. His remarks come at a time when other nations, including the US, are considering national crypto reserves.
