Russian Tax Bill on Cryptocurrency Passes First Reading
On June 9, the Russian State Duma approved in the first reading a bill on the taxation of cryptocurrency operations, reports TASS. The document aligns the Tax Code with the forthcoming law "On Digital Currency and Digital Rights." What Will Change The tax base for cryptocurrency transactions is proposed to be determined as the positive difference between income and documented expenses. The latter are planned to be calculated using the FIFO method. The bill also introduces the possibility of offsetting — balancing positive and negative financial results from operations with digital currency and foreign digital rights within a single tax period. Brokers, trust managers, and digital depositories will act as tax agents for PIT in such operations if they are the source of income payment to an individual. The State Duma Committee on Budget and Taxes suggested discussing the extension of these functions to exchanges for the second reading. For companies, income and expenses from operations with digital currency, excluding mining, under foreign trade agreements will be included in the general profit tax base. Foreign digital rights in this part are planned to be equated with cryptocurrencies. It is proposed to exempt the sale of non-deliverable foreign digital rights, which only certify monetary claims, from VAT. The exemption will also apply to the services of depositories and organizations conducting cryptocurrency exchanges. Periodic payments on debt DFA, not related to redemption, are proposed to be included in the profit tax base according to the rules for interest income on loans. For ruble-denominated debt DFA of Russian issuers traded on the organized market, a preferential rate is introduced similar to interest on bonds. Timeline The Russian government submitted the bill to the State Duma on April 29. If the document is finally adopted, it will come into force a month after official publication. The rules for market valuation of cryptocurrencies for miners are set to take effect on January 1, 2028, and a separate regime for debt DFA on January 1, 2030. Previously, the November 2024 version of the tax law proposed a PIT rate of 13-15%, as well as a 25% profit tax for legal entities. The basic project "On Digital Currency and Digital Rights" was approved in the first reading on April 21, 2026. ForkLog provided an in-depth analysis of its provisions in a podcast.

Botanix Announces Gradual Shutdown of Bitcoin L2 Network
The Botanix team has announced a phased shutdown of its L2 network on Bitcoin, urging users to withdraw assets by July 9, 2026. It is with a heavy heart that we announce we are winding down the Botanix network.This decision is the hardest one we have made in four years, and we want to share the reasoning openly because the people who backed us, built with us, and used what we shipped deserve more than a…— Botanix 🕷️ (@botanix) June 9, 2026 The team explained the decision was due to weak demand for Bitcoin programmability. Developers assessed the market as immature: most DeFi sector users prefer the wrapped version of the first cryptocurrency on the Ethereum network, while on-chain activity is increasingly concentrated on major platforms like Hyperliquid and Robinhood. According to Botanix, users primarily view Bitcoin as a store of value rather than an asset for high-frequency trading. As a result, the network's commission revenues were insufficient to cover infrastructure costs. After July 9, assets remaining on the network will be controlled by the validator group Federation. Other funds not withdrawn by the deadline will be irretrievable. Botanix positioned itself as an EVM-compatible L2 solution for Bitcoin. The project launched its mainnet on July 1, 2025, promising to reduce block addition times from 10 minutes to five seconds and bring DeFi tools to the first cryptocurrency's ecosystem. In May 2024, Botanix Labs raised $8.5 million, bringing total funding to $11.5 million. The round included Polychain Capital, Placeholder Capital, Valor Equity Partners, and ABCDE. Earlier in the same year, analysts at Galaxy Digital suggested that by 2030, more than $47 billion in liquidity could transition to Bitcoin L2 solutions.
EU Proposes Sanctions Targeting Crypto Exchanges in New Package
The European Commission unveiled its 21st package of sanctions against Russia, encompassing measures in financial services, crypto assets, trade, and energy. The financial segment includes asset freezes for nearly 90 banks and a ban on transactions for more than 30 credit institutions in Russia and third countries. The package places particular emphasis on the crypto sector. For the first time, it proposes restrictions on 11 crypto platforms that the EU believes are facilitating sanctions evasion. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced plans to create a mechanism for a complete ban on crypto services from third countries if they assist in lifting restrictions. The document also proposes freezing the current price cap on Russian oil at $44.1 per barrel for six months, along with restrictions against shadow fleets, traders, and refineries from third countries.Additionally, import restrictions will, for the first time, affect fish products and high-performance metal alloys critical for the defense and aerospace industries. The proposal is on the agenda for the EU member states' Committee of Permanent Representatives (Coreper II) meeting on June 10. Approval of the sanctions requires unanimous consent from all 27 member states. In January, the US first imposed sanctions on Bitcoin exchanges for links to Iran.
