Sberbank Crypto Trading: Russia’s Biggest Bank Approved to Exchange Bitcoin and Ethereum

Sberbank, Russia’s largest lender, has been added to the Bank of Russia’s register of crypto exchange operators, clearing it to buy and sell digital currencies in its own name and to quote prices directly to its own customers. The entry, dated October 12 in the central bank’s register , gives Sberbank both of the licences created under Russia’s new digital-currency framework, after it joined the digital depository register earlier in the month.
