The Russian Defense and Russian state technology giant, Rostec, unveiled plans to launch a stablecoin and digital payment payment platform at the end of 2025, marking one of the country’s largest measures to the blockchain-based financial infrastructure.
The new digital currency, named Rubx, will maintain a 1: 1 ankle with the Russian ruble and will be published via the Rostec owner payment system, RT-Pay, according to an announcement of July 3 reported by Tass.
Built on a tron, audited by Certik
Rubx will be deployed on the Blockchain Tron, the developers providing for publishing the associated intelligent contract code on Github. The project will also undergo a pre-launch audit of the Blockchain Certik security company, signaling an effort to prioritize transparency and security.
Deputy Managing Director Alexander Nazarov declared that each token will be supported by legal allegations to the actual reserves of the ruble, guaranteeing regulatory compliance and financial equivalence. This structure allows users – individuals and businesses – to transform digital rubles on public blockchain rails, while remaining aligned with Russian laws and financial surveillance protocols.
RT-PAY will integrate in banks and wallets
The RT-PAY platform is designed to connect in a transparent way with the existing banking systems of the country, allowing functionalities such as real-time regulations, the execution of intelligent contracts and interoperability with external digital portfolios. Rostec stressed that the system fully adheres to the rules of the rules for whitening money (LMA) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF), as indicated by the Russian Central Bank.
Strategic deployment for market demand inquiry
According to the project manager Dmitry Shumayev, the launch will take place in phases, starting with tests in the main industries to assess the absorption. Future extensions may include additional financial services and digital asset tools, depending on the interest of users and institutional comments.
Rostec has supervised the initiative as part of its broader mission to advance interior technological solutions and reduce dependence on foreign financial infrastructure. This decision is also aligned with the growing concentration of Russia on the development of digital ruble, because geopolitical pressures and linked to sanctions continue to shape its economic strategy.
