Smart move from putin, just like we are used to from him.
Governments who embrace crypto now will have a lot to gain from it. Sure they will regulate it, or try to regulate it as much as they can, but ""if you can't beat them, join them" .
China will come with a plan for this soon too, they are smart
Eu will talk about it for 20 years and do shit lol
Other countries specially se asia will follow soon
Again nice move putin....politically he did a killer move in syria, increasing russia's influence and prestige worldwide ( i know if you only watch western news he seems like a monster lol but overall when putin talks the world listens carefully )
Now he makes a jumpstart to digital world lol russians are already very active in digital world, they think they may fuck americans financially in some way by this i guess.
Anyway we'll have to see the exact implications of this and what it means
