Regions like Dagestan and Chechnya were chosen based on energy demand, with adjustments possible. The ban includes mining pools and considers electricity subsidies, with temporary restrictions in other areas during peak demand. While crypto mining was legalized in 2024, Russia prohibits domestic crypto payments but allows cross-border use to evade sanctions, reflecting its focus on energy management and regulation.
