According to Bits media, the Russian Central Bank said in its latest report that Russian residents currently hold about 3.8 billion rubles (about 52.62 million US dollars) in crypto-linked financial instruments. This figure is almost unchanged from 3.7 billion rubles in October last year, showing that residents’ interest in crypto investments has not increased. The report also shows that retail investors have put 1.7 billion rubles into crypto-linked corporate bonds. Including corporate investors, the bond market tied to cryptocurrency exchange rates totals 4.1 billion rubles, of which retail investors account for 42%. These bonds are mainly issued by large banks.
