Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Information Policy, Communications and Information Anton Gorelkin discussed the issue of protecting miners' data with the Federal Tax Service (FTS) and stated that the agency pays special attention to their safety.
According to him, he received a large number of questions from the management of mining companies concerning the safety of private information, including crypto wallet numbers.
Anton Gorelkin drew attention to the fact that the leakage of such information could pose a threat to companies, as they could be used by the intelligence services of unfriendly states.
He emphasized that the tax service management assured him that all information concerning the information obtained through mining, as well as the address identifiers, are stored in the department's closed internal system. Only a few people have access to them, and it is practically impossible to obtain them from the outside.
The deputy stated that despite the widespread belief that any data will sooner or later become publicly available, this is not true in this case. Why? The tax service guarantees that this will not happen.
