PANews reported on May 24th, citing Bits Media, that the Russian government has expanded the scope of information that miners and mining infrastructure operators must submit to the tax authorities. Under the new regulations, the national register of miners and operators must include network address data for equipment used in cryptocurrency mining (ASIC miners). The Russian Ministry of Finance stated that this move aims to simplify the regulation of digital asset transactions and the investigation of violations. Furthermore, grid operators will be able to more accurately monitor the infrastructure load in areas with a high concentration of mining capacity.

According to the law, government agencies, courts, Russian banks, and power grid operators all have access to information in the miners' register. The Federal Tax Service is responsible for maintaining the register of miners and mining infrastructure operators. Under current law, miners and infrastructure operators (such as mining pools) must submit and regularly update the following information: For mining equipment, information such as manufacturer, model, serial number, algorithm, hashrate, power consumption, and operating mode; Regarding mining: the amount and type of cryptocurrency mined, mining pools, and links to online statistics.
