However, others at Sberbank are not convinced of the merits of virtual currencies, so they’re suspending all cryptocurrency-related projects. Andrey Shemetov, the global markets head at Sberbank, made the announcement at a May 30 press conference, Tass reported. “We waited for legislation that allows you to trade cryptocurrencies. Since the regulator is currently looking negatively , we decided to suspend our cryptocurrency plans. ” Russia Delays Roll-Out of Regulations
