The Deputy Minister of Finance of Russia, Ivan Chebeskov, stated that he does not wish to allow dollar-denominated stablecoins to circulate in the Russian market. Chebeskov pointed out that foreign stablecoin issuers such as USDT and USDC have the ability to freeze users' wallet assets. Once the relevant wallets engage in transactions with platforms licensed by the Central Bank of Russia, the risk of asset freezing for holders will significantly increase.

He revealed that there have already been cases where dollar stablecoins held by Russian legal entities were frozen by the issuers, while Bitcoin and Ethereum have not encountered similar situations due to the lack of relevant technical means. The Russian Ministry of Finance believes it is necessary to establish a regulatory framework specifically for stablecoins and to prioritize the development of stablecoins pegged to the ruble and the currencies of friendly countries, while also granting the Central Bank of Russia the authority to adjust the list of relevant assets.
