Putin signed Russia's first comprehensive crypto law on Aug 4, so the Russia entry is fully rewritten. Federal Law 282-FZ, "On Digital Currencies and Digital Rights." Core provisions go live Sept 1. The state that spent a decade calling Bitcoin a threat just built a licensed market around it. What actually changed: โ Retail can buy the most-liquid coins, capped at 300k rubles (~$3,700) a year per venue. โ Exchanges must register with the central bank, hold 15M rubles equity, join an SRO. โ The law enshrines judicial protection for holders. โ Domestic payments stay banned. Russia's now updated. The map tracks 140+ countries on six things: is it legal, can you self-custody, how's it taxed, what's it classified as, where's the politics headed, and can the state take it.

Sen. Lummis says the CLARITY Act closes the gap. Section 305 gives exchanges the power to freeze any transaction for 30 days, no court order required, extendable to 180 days. Built to stop Lazarus. The freeze tool doesn't check who's holding the wallet. Tomorrow's issue breaks down exactly what Sections 303 and 305 hand Treasury and exchanges, and where self-custody still draws the line. Also inside: this week's subscriber legal question answered, live odds on the bitcoin legal events sitting on prediction markets right now, and the US + global regulatory moves that actually matter for holders.

The problem: one analyst just cut its odds of passing this year from 50% to 30%. His words: the calendar "is now the enemy." This is the final floor window before recess.

On 17 July, Nigeria's president signed an executive order putting the central bank in charge of crypto, the same central bank that ordered every bank in the country to close crypto accounts in 2021. So Nigeria's entry is rewritten. Here's what actually changed. The Presidential Executive Order on Virtual Assets Coordination, 2026 took effect immediately. It creates a Virtual Asset Council: the CBN chairs, the Revenue Service and SEC are vice-chairs, and the Financial Intelligence Unit and the National Security Adviser sit at the table. Three things worth knowing: โ No new regulator. Every agency keeps its full statutory mandate. This is a coordination layer, not a power grab. โ The jurisdiction split is finally written down. Activities like securities register with the SEC. Payment, settlement and custody of non-security assets register with the CBN. โ 30 days to deliver a Harmonised Implementation Framework, with a CBN sandbox, an NRS tax policy and a national White Paper queued behind it. The map tracks 140+ jurisdictions on six questions each: is Bitcoin legal, can you self-custody, how is it taxed, what is it legally classified as, where is the politics going, and can the state take it from you. Which country do you think is most misunderstood on the map? ๐ https://blossom.primal.net/5a166ffd1d7087aa248134cb516e06095a71fb881f3e4c3da3c8c2dd8fb9fcc2.jpg npub1kx8fc8xfllpkr28jychmnf2prgrpxs42ld97k9dfv59w2y2ddp3qpcr0qu The_Bitcoin_Act 1,000 Bitcoiners now read The Bitcoin Act.

Then you die and that's the exploit. No plan, and there are only three endings: the keys are lost forever, your seed ends up in your will as a public court record, or your family mails a death certificate to an exchange to beg for coins that are already theirs. Every path hands your stack to someone else. The exact thing you opted out of. It's fixable in an afternoon: multisig with an heir key, an on-chain dead man's switch, a private trust. I wrote the full playbook. Free.

Mandatory exam. $3,900/year cap. Passed by the State Duma yesterday, July 21. Not a rumor. Not a Telegram translation. The actual bill. ๐งต 2/ New licensing registry for exchanges, custodians, and brokers. Existing platforms get roughly a year to register. 3/ Retail investors can buy the most liquid crypto assets (bitcoinโs the obvious flagship) through a registered intermediary โ but only after passing a knowledge test. 4/ The retail cap: 300,000 rubles (~$3,900) per year, per intermediary. 5/ Qualified investors also have to pass a test, but face no purchase cap. Prior trading history can count toward qualifying. 6/ Owning โ spending. This bill legalizes buying and holding bitcoin. It does not legalize using it as money. Paying for groceries in bitcoin is still banned domestically โ the ruble keeps its monopoly on everyday transactions. 7/ Carve-outs: foreign-trade settlement, mined crypto, and some securities transactions are exempt from that ban. 8/ Banks are now required to block transfers to anyone they suspect of running an unregistered exchange. 9/ Timeline: first reading was back in April. Most provisions take effect Sept 1. It still needs to clear the Federation Council and get signed into law. Expected, but not done yet. 10/ The part worth sitting with: a government thatโs spent years treating bitcoin as a threat to its monetary sovereignty just built a formal, licensed path for its own citizens to buy it. Gated by an exam and a cap. But a path. Thatโs the move a state makes once it accepts it canโt kill the protocol โ so it regulates the door instead. 11/ Genuine question: does โexam + cap to start, uncapped once you qualifyโ count as a country actually opening the door to bitcoin? Or is it just a more polite capital control? Whereโs the line for you? 12/ I track moves like this across dozens of jurisdictions.

Standard practice: staff write recommendations for commissioners. She wrote her own. She is now general counsel of that same firm. [2/7] Three firms sat at the center of the NYT investigation. #Polymarket, invested in by a firm partly owned by Donald Trump Jr., who also advises it. Cryptocom, exclusive partner of Trump Media & Technology Group. Gemini Titan, founders back American Bitcoin, co-founded by Eric Trump. Each needed CFTC sign-off. Each got it. Staff who objected were placed on leave. [3/7] The enforcement numbers tell the rest. Biden CFTC: 80+ cases involving digital asset firms. Trump's second term so far: 2. Both against individual operators. Zero against prediction-market platforms. Zero against the firms whose applications were fast-tracked. [4/7] The revolving door, documented: Caroline Pham, then-acting Chair, pushed approvals through over staff objections. Now at MoonPay, which holds an exclusive partnership with Polymarket. Brigitte Weyls, senior counsel, wrote Gemini Titan's approval memo herself. Now its general counsel. This isn't a scandal. It's a business model. [5/7] Congress is now moving the #CLARITY Act, a bill that would hand the CFTC sweeping new authority over spot commodity markets. Senate Banking Committee advanced it 15-9 earlier this month. Expanding jurisdiction to an agency this structurally exposed is not oversight reform. It's a larger attack surface for the next political cycle. [6/7] The real lesson isn't about Trump. When regulators control market access, political incentives will always, eventually, control regulators. Permission systems don't fail because of bad actors. They fail because the incentive to capture them is always greater than the incentive to defend them. Bitcoin doesn't petition the CFTC to settle a transaction. That's not a coincidence. [7/7] The CLARITY Act passed the House. The Senate is moving. If it passes with the CFTC in its current state, the question isn't whether the agency gets captured again. It's which administration does the capturing, and which industries brought the checkbook. ๐๏ธ In todayโs world, knowing #Bitcoin law isnโt optional, itโs essential for staying free and safe. ๐ฅ Subscribe to my weekly newsletter and get the sharpest breakdowns delivered straight to you: https://thebitcoinact.xyz/ npub1kx8fc8xfllpkr28jychmnf2prgrpxs42ld97k9dfv59w2y2ddp3qpcr0qu The_Bitcoin_Act Yeah! npub1kx8fc8xfllpkr28jychmnf2prgrpxs42ld97k9dfv59w2y2ddp3qpcr0qu The_Bitcoin_Act Meme of the day #Bitcoin ๐งกโก๏ธ https://blossom.primal.net/9cd985e638e91b15fb6592aac2ca39aa4f77cbd0334eff2dfc6d379b6011f5f6.jpg npub1kx8fc8xfllpkr28jychmnf2prgrpxs42ld97k9dfv59w2y2ddp3qpcr0qu The_Bitcoin_Act โก๏ธ Issue #49 of The Bitcoin Act newsletter is live! ๐งก Dive into the latest global moves reshaping #Bitcoin regulation and adoption. ๐ For subscribers, donโt forget to check and claim your free sats! ๐ Full issue here: https://thebitcoinact.xyz https://blossom.primal.net/0ee50a33afc862510c39979ada5bc22f2d4ec34aca7d2407806258f05c414734.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/e78ff69082e31b95249e243d69982c3fddf10ef3eb74283777fbe777e816c1b8.jpg npub1kx8fc8xfllpkr28jychmnf2prgrpxs42ld97k9dfv59w2y2ddp3qpcr0qu The_Bitcoin_Act Meme of the day #Bitcoin ๐งกโก๏ธ https://blossom.primal.net/575b440d0ff64c053bd08e2400ab9c597546c7d6823c1a06e65412b20a333979.jpg npub1kx8fc8xfllpkr28jychmnf2prgrpxs42ld97k9dfv59w2y2ddp3qpcr0qu The_Bitcoin_Act The #Bitcoin law project ARMA is decisive.
