Putin: The development of new payment tools is an inevitable evolution, and no one can ban Bitcoin.

On December 4, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated at the "Russia is Calling!" investment forum that the development of new payment tools is proceeding naturally and is an inevitable process. "Take Bitcoin, for example. Who can ban it? Nobody. Who can ban the use of other electronic payment tools? Nobody, because these are all new technologies. No matter what happens, no matter what happens to the dollar, these tools will develop in some way because everyone will strive to reduce costs and improve reliability," Putin said.
