Russian President Vladimir Putin has called for accelerated adoption of self-driving technologies, emphasizing the need to transition from pilot projects to mass deployment. The directive came during a high-level meeting where Putin reviewed domestic autonomous vehicle prototypes, noting their potential but acknowledging Russia's lag behind global leaders in the field.

"We must MOVE quicker from experiments to real-world implementation," Putin stated, directing regional governments to prioritize autonomous solutions. The remarks highlight Moscow's push for technological sovereignty amid Western sanctions, though no specific cryptocurrency or blockchain linkages were mentioned in the context of these developments.
