Sberbank, Russia's largest bank, is reportedly planning to expand its cryptocurrency-backed lending services to include Ethereum (ETH) and Tether (USDT) as collateral, in addition to Bitcoin (BTC). Anatoly Popov, Deputy Chairman of Sberbank, stated that the bank has gained practical experience in digital asset operations and intends to adapt its existing offerings once new regulatory frameworks are fully implemented.
