俄罗斯最大的金融机构 Sberbank 打算在今年秋天加入一项加密货币结算实验计划。

Russia’s largest financial institution, Sberbank, is preparing to join a pilot program for cryptocurrency settlements this fall. The bank is also aiming to begin serving clients using digital rubles by 2025.

俄罗斯最大的金融机构 Sberbank 正准备于今年秋季加入加密货币结算试点计划。该银行还计划到 2025 年开始使用数字卢布为客户提供服务。

According to a report by Reuters, Anatoly Popov, deputy chairman of Sberbank’s board and head of the corporate investment business unit, revealed these plans during an interview at the Eastern Economic Forum.

据路透社报道，俄罗斯联邦储蓄银行董事会副主席兼企业投资业务部门负责人阿纳托利·波波夫在东方经济论坛接受采访时透露了这些计划。

Popov said that Sberbank is aiming to join the pilot program for cryptocurrency settlements this fall. The bank is also planning to begin operations with clients in digital rubles by early 2025.

波波夫表示，俄罗斯联邦储蓄银行计划在今年秋季加入加密货币结算试点计划。该银行还计划在 2025 年初开始以数字卢布与客户开展业务。

He added that the bank is supporting efforts by Russian regulators to legalize cryptocurrencies for international payments and mining.

他补充说，该银行正在支持俄罗斯监管机构使国际支付和挖矿的加密货币合法化的努力。

“There is a steady demand for payments using cryptocurrencies in the global economy,” Popov said.

波波夫表示：“全球经济中对使用加密货币进行支付的需求稳定。”

While cryptocurrency payments are still in a “gray zone” in many countries, they could offer solutions for small and medium-sized businesses, according to Popov.

波波夫表示，虽然加密货币支付在许多国家仍处于“灰色地带”，但它们可以为中小企业提供解决方案。

An experimental legal framework for cryptocurrency settlements is being developed, with the central bank set to define its parameters starting earlier this month.

加密货币结算的实验性法律框架正在制定中，央行将于本月早些时候开始定义其参数。

“We are actively involved in developing regulatory mechanisms and hope to become participants in the new regime this fall,” the Sberbank executive added.

“我们正在积极参与制定监管机制，并希望在今年秋天成为新制度的参与者，”俄罗斯联邦储蓄银行高管补充道。

Sberbank is also part of a pilot to implement the digital ruble and is aiming to begin client operations by 2025. The digital ruble will allow exchanges for non-cash rubles without restrictions, enabling users to make transactions freely, Popov said.

俄罗斯联邦储蓄银行也是实施数字卢布试点的一部分，目标是到 2025 年开始客户运营。波波夫表示，数字卢布将允许不受限制地兑换非现金卢布，使用户能够自由进行交易。

According to the deputy chairman, cryptocurrencies are more suited as payment methods for smaller businesses and individual transactions, he noted.

他指出，根据副主席的说法，加密货币更适合作为小型企业和个人交易的支付方式。
