Russian Central Bank Seeks to Ban Crypto Mining, Investment www.themoscowtimes.com

Russia’s Central Bank proposed last Thursday to ban cryptocurrency investment and mining as governments around the world crack down on the decentralized currencies, citing threats to monetary stability.
The Central Bank said “speculative demand” is driving the rapid growth of decentralized cryptocurrencies and risks creating a bubble in the market.
“Cryptocurrencies also have signs of a financial pyramid as increase in their prices is largely driven by demand demonstrated by new market participants,” it said.
In its consultation paper outlining its position, the Bank said it seeks to ban financial institutions from investing in or carrying out any operations with cryptocurrencies.
The Central Bank also seeks to ban cryptocurrency exchanges and any platforms that facilitate the circulation of cryptocurrencies.
The Bank estimates that Russian citizens’ transactions using decentralized cryptocurrencies amount to $5 billion per year.
It also proposed banning crypto mining, citing the threat to Russia’s financial stability through its “unproductive consumption” of electric power “and the implementation of Russia’s environmental agenda.”
Russia has the world’s third-largest share in the global crypto mining market behind the United States and Kazakhstan. China cracked down on bitcoin mining last year.
The Central Bank plans to draft amendments to Russian legislation to ban crypto mining and investment in the coming months, its head of financial stability told the state-run RIA Novosti news agency.
Conducting transactions with cryptocurrencies is illegal in Russia, but investing and buying crypto through exchanges is permitted under a recent change.

Uvs Chatsargana registered in the EU as first protected Geographical Indication from Mongolia www.montsame.mn

"Uvs Chatsargana’, seabuckthorn berries from Uvs aimag, has been registered in the EU as the first Protected Geographical Indication from Mongolia. The registration procedure was first begun in 2016 with the support of the Intellectual Property Office of Mongolia, the Uvs Sea buckthorn and the Embassy of France. From 2019, the Mongolian National Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MNCCI), SEQUA project team of the Association of German Chambers of Commerce and Industry, the Uvs Sea buckthorn producers' association continued their cooperation in creating a value-added chain for sea buckthorn growers, which has reached this result.
The Uvs Chatsargana's registration as Geographical Indication (GI) in the European Union will help it be protected in the EU member states from imitation and usurpation. Moreover, it has the advantage of increasing the income of local seabuckthorn growers and producers, supporting sustainable business, preserving the unique taste and quality due to the environment and climate, creating a new tourism product, and ensuring customers’ use of quality and standard products. For this activity, the MNCCI provided support to the private sector in conducting laboratory analysis of Uvs seabuckthorn and editing documents.

CDC: Boosters effective against hospitalization www.nhk.or.jp

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says new research shows a booster dose of a coronavirus vaccine is 90 percent effective in preventing hospitalization due to infection with the Omicron variant.
The CDC on Friday released its study on the effectiveness of booster shots of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, based on data from medical institutions across the country.
It says that two doses of the vaccine were 81 percent effective against hospitalization after six months when the Delta variant was surging, and 57 percent when the Omicron variant became dominant.
However, a booster shot raised the effectiveness to 94 percent during the Delta wave, and to 90 percent during the Omicron surge.
Unvaccinated people aged between 50 and 64 are 44 times more likely to be hospitalized for COVID-19, compared to fully vaccinated and boosted individuals. The figure rose to 49 times among those aged 65 or older.
CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said the research demonstrates that protection against hospitalization is higher for those who have had booster shots. She urged people who are eligible to get their booster shot to get it as soon as possible.
