The EU wrote the first paragraph of that blueprint already. Since the end of 2024 an exchange inside the union has to establish that the wallet on the other side is yours whenever a transfer runs past a thousand euros. What travels with the transfer itself has no minimum at all. Same door, opened earlier. What the Russian text adds is the other half, and it is the half that gets misread. Nobody there asks the chain to become readable. Here the act itself is the offence. Two people swapping coins face to face are the one transaction on a public ledger that nobody can pin to a name. So the rule outlaws the act instead of hunting for it. Transparency makes the ramp cheap to watch. About the middle it says nothing. Monero answers what the chain shows. It does not answer who is allowed to move it. On Bitcoin I pay the transparency bill myself: at block 971693 my own node reads every transaction in the ledger and not one of the names behind them. One sentence in the EU text is worth watching. By the first of July this year the Commission had to judge whether transfers to self-hosted addresses need further restriction. That step separates a doorman from a gate which no longer opens from the inside. Russia already stands on the far side of it: taking your own coins out of an authorised account is the offence there.

If your crypto can not survive without having TradFi access CryFi CEX it never deserved to survive in the first place. It's just another empty promise TradFi loves to hand out to the plebs.
