Russia pays salaries in digital rubles for first time

Original: Russia uses digital rubles to pay salaries for first time

Russia has begun paying salaries in digital rubles for the first time, a milestone for the country's central bank digital currency pilot. The move shifts some wage payments onto the digital ruble, run on the Bank of Russia's platform, and marks an early practical use of the currency beyond testing.

Why now: It is the first real-world deployment of Russia's digital ruble for wage payments, a notable step in the state's digital currency rollout.
