While countries around the world are diversifying their attitudes towards cryptocurrencies, many have either embraced them or remained cautious or even banned them. El Salvador is known for its progressive stance, and the US has also shown a shift in attitude. Recently, Russia has taken significant steps in commercial agreements, and it seems the country is not stopping there.
