This registration system will serve as a central database for all cryptocurrency mining equipment across the country and is being jointly developed by the Ministry of Energy, the Federal Tax Service, and the Ministry of Digital Development. Petr Konyushenko, Deputy Minister of Energy of Russia, stated that the system will help authorities "accurately identify" who is using electricity for cryptocurrency mining, ensure miners comply with relevant laws, and boost tax collection.
