Moscow Exchange Prepares Groundbreaking Crypto Trading Platform

Moscow Exchange is planning to launch its own digital depository for cryptocurrency trading by late 2026 or early 2027, according to reports.

The digital depository will allow users to buy, sell, and hold cryptocurrencies through their existing brokerage apps and securities firm platforms, improving accessibility for retail investors in Russia.

The Moscow Exchange's move aims to bring institutional-grade reliability to the crypto market, which has historically been marked by volatility and security risks. The digital depository will also address custody concerns, providing a safer environment for asset storage compared to unregulated exchanges or self-custody methods.
