Russia, which has been working on cryptocurrencies for a long time but has not yet reached a conclusion, has taken action again.

Accordingly, Russia is preparing to legislate its long-pending cryptocurrency regulatory framework in July.

With the passage of this bill, major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are expected to become more involved in the regulatory mainstream.

According to DL News, Anatoly Aksakov, chairman of the State Duma’s Financial Markets Committee, said that the cryptocurrency regulation bill is expected to be voted on by the end of June.

If the bill is approved, it is expected to come into effect on July 1, 2027.

The bill focuses on exchanges, investor limits, and stablecoins.

At this point, the bill will tighten restrictions on individual investors as well as regulate cryptocurrency exchanges.

Aksakov stated that individual investors will be required to pass an eligibility test to trade cryptocurrencies, and the annual purchase limit will be set at 300,000 rubles (approximately $3,800).

Aksokov also stated that the draft bill would allow the Russian Central Bank to directly determine the list of cryptocurrencies that individual investors can purchase. The report noted that cryptocurrencies not included in this list are expected to be restricted, allowing only qualified investors to trade them.

CME Group to launch Solana and XRP futures options in October

The post CME Group to launch Solana and XRP futures options in October appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. CME Group is preparing to launch options on SOL and XRP futures next month, giving traders new ways to manage exposure to the two assets.  The contracts are set to go live on October 13, pending regulatory approval, and will come in both standard and micro sizes with expiries offered daily, monthly and quarterly. The new listings mark a major step for CME, which first brought bitcoin futures to market in 2017 and added ether contracts in 2021. Solana and XRP futures have quickly gained traction since their debut earlier this year. CME says more than 540,000 Solana contracts (worth about $22.3 billion), and 370,000 XRP contracts (worth $16.2 billion), have already been traded. Both products hit record trading activity and open interest in August. Market makers including Cumberland and FalconX plan to support the new contracts, arguing that institutional investors want hedging tools beyond bitcoin and ether. CME’s move also highlights the growing demand for regulated ways to access a broader set of digital assets. The launch, which still needs the green light from regulators, follows the end of XRP’s years-long legal fight with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. A federal court ruling in 2023 found that institutional sales of XRP violated securities laws, but programmatic exchange sales did not. The case officially closed in August 2025 after Ripple agreed to pay a $125 million fine, removing one of the biggest uncertainties hanging over the token. This is a developing story.
