@Hatshepsut93, you have every reason to doubt the article because most of the articles writer of these days just want to gain more traffic, make name and earn some money but have done an in-depth search and i find out that this article seems to be real because the Ukrainian government are truly working towards the legalization of crypto currency but I don't know when it will real happen.
Source "Working on" and "crypto is not legal" are two very different things, there's no guarantee that they will finish their work, it's actually has been going for years and multiple laws have already been drafted, but the parliament didn't even vote on them. And the new government has made a lot of promises and still not delivered on them,
for example they said they will legalize gambling, but recently failed the vote, despite having a majority. indeed , it was an interesting phenomenon , to fail to vote when you have the majority
what is even funnier, there are illegal , or , semi-legal casinos masquerading for the state lotteries
literally on every corner there , despite gambling being prohibited officially
but the sources say that they are being raided and closed now , somehow them paying the local police is not working anymore
this more than anything shows how the things are done in Ukraine - can't pass the law , lets close them by force
even if they are practicaly illegal , this is not the right signal to send for the investors and businesses
and people are talking about the freedom of business and a digital state
makes me chuckle
