據 DL News 報導，俄羅斯最大銀行 Sberbank 已向大型比特幣礦企 Intelion Data 發放該國首筆以加密貨幣作為抵押品的貸款。該筆交易被定位為「試點項目」，貸款規模、期限及具體抵押幣種並未對外公開，相關加密資產將由 Sberbank 自有託管方案 Rutoken 全程託管，直至貸款償還完畢。

According to DL News, Sberbank, the largest bank in Russia, has issued the country’s first crypto-collateralized loan to major Bitcoin miner Intelion Data. Dubbed a 'pilot project', the transaction has kept the loan amount, tenure and specific collateralized crypto assets undisclosed. The relevant crypto assets will be held in custody via Rutoken, Sberbank’s proprietary custody solution, until the loan is fully repaid.
