Russia has proposed to introduce a ban on the installation of mining-farms in residential areas. This initiative was made by the President of the Foundation for information democracy Ilya massukh
He is motivated is very simple. "Electrical network is unlikely to survive, and certainly homemade extractor is unable to remove the heat that there will generates. Accordingly, there can be fires. The use of the housing stock to create some data centers need to learn on the subject of prohibition" At the same time, says Massukh, because "bitcoin is prohibited in Russia", mining cryptocurrencies on the inside should not be encouraged in principle.
"Virtually all computer power are not Russian, the bitcoin banned in the country. Accordingly, it is somewhere on some external exchange. All that remains domestically is a waste of electricity. Rather questionable efficiency for the Russian economy". Here is the development of the digital economy.
Earlier this year, Ilya massukh joined the working group of the Economic Council under the President of the Russian Federation in the direction of "Digital economy".
We will remind, last week in the city of Kostroma has detained individuals involved in "illegal cashing in bitcoins".
