Russia's communications watchdog, Roskomnadzor, has blocked access to BestChange, a prominent cryptocurrency exchange aggregator in Russia and Eastern Europe. The specific reasons for the restriction remain unclear, but Roskomnadzor's website lists BestChange as blocked due to unspecified financial legal violations. BestChange is in communication with the central bank to identify the cause and work towards lifting the ban. The platform speculates that recent cryptocurrency regulations or misuse by an entity using its service could be potential reasons for the block. This action follows Russia's ban on circulating and advertising digital currencies, although the country has legalized cryptocurrency mining and the use of cryptocurrencies for international payments.
