#数字资产市场动态 Russia's pension insurance system has recently been pushed into the spotlight—due to records from the social security department showing that by 2025, they have received over 37 million inquiries from retirees. One recurring core demand is: can encrypted assets be used to receive or supplement pensions?

Even more interesting, many retired groups have started to spend their idle time mining cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, attempting to increase passive income through this method. This phenomenon reflects several shifts:

First, cryptocurrencies are expanding from the exclusive domain of young investors to a broader population. When the most conservative and cautious group—retirees—begins to actively learn about and participate in crypto, it indicates that the market’s acceptance threshold has been broken.

Second, traditional pension systems face inflation pressures, leading more people to look at decentralized assets as an alternative for storing value. The combination of mining and passive income has practical appeal for fixed-income groups.

When grandparents discuss whether to use BTC to supplement their pensions—this is not just a joke but also a microcosm of how the crypto economy has penetrated the real financial system. The boundaries between traditional finance and emerging assets are dissolving at a visibly rapid pace.
