Trezor and non-custodial bitcoin wallet Wasabi, revealed to work together to introduce Coinjoin mixing into hardware wallets.

According to Trezor and Wasabi, a form of Coinjoin mixing is coming to hardware wallets in the near future.

Russia’s Central Bank shifts ground to legalize crypto payments
The Central Bank of Russia together with the Ministry of Finance has had a rethink on the legalization of crypto.
Together they have decided that it is imminent to legalize cross-border payment with digital currencies. Alexei Moiseev, the Deputy Minister of Finance announced this during an interview with Russia-24 TV channel.
The news comes just after Prime Minister Mikhail Vladimirovich Mishustin declared openly that crypto is a ‘safe alternative’ for international trade.
Initially, the concern had been the fact that the Russian Ruble is the only form of legal tender in the country. They had fears that if cryptocurrencies are finally accepted as a means of payment, they might end up displacing the Ruble.
