Putin signs law regulating crypto mining in Russia

Russian President Vladimir Putin has enacted legislation to formally regulate the cryptocurrency mining sector in Russia, with the law set to take effect in November. This legislation establishes a regulated framework for mining operations, limiting participation from entities associated with electricity and prohibiting the promotion of cryptocurrencies. It also allows the circulation of mined cryptocurrency domestically under specific conditions and permits the trading of foreign digital assets on Russian blockchain platforms.

Are there any circumstances under which individuals or unregistered entities might be allowed to mine cryptocurrencies?
