Russian Ministry of Finance to Permit Tokenization of Assets and Intellectual Property Rights, 2026/02/11 15:46:01
The Russian government has approved a concept for the tokenization of real assets, including property rights and intellectual property results. This document was proposed by the Ministry of Finance and the Bank of Russia.
The Ministry of Finance aims to utilize blockchain technology for managing real economy assets such as property, intellectual property, and securities. The state plans to test the tokenization of property ownership rights, provided that state registration is not required for transactions involving these assets. Additionally, exclusive rights to the results of intellectual activities can also be converted into a digital format.
Furthermore, a pilot program is planned for the tokenization of securities and the digital recording of shares in the charter capital of limited liability companies.

The Ministry of Finance anticipates that the digitization of real assets will enhance investment attractiveness by simplifying processes and lowering entry barriers: tokenized shares can be purchased in parts rather than as whole units. This, in theory, would enable smaller investors to participate more frequently in trading, according to officials. The Ministry expects that tokenization will also improve the quality of banks’ credit portfolios.
Concurrently, the Russian government is considering a regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies in the country. Transactions involving digital currencies are proposed to be permitted through the existing financial infrastructure, including stock exchanges and brokerage firms. The Central Bank suggests allowing non-professional investors, meaning any individuals, to purchase digital currencies up to a limit of 300,000 rubles per year from a single intermediary.
The Ministry of Finance’s concept has emerged amid a global surge in interest in asset tokenization. In less than six weeks, the global market for tokenized goods has expanded by 53%, surpassing $6.1 billion. This is the most rapidly growing segment of the real-world asset tokenization market, with the primary growth driver being the transfer of gold onto the blockchain.
