Due to US sanctions , Russia may well start to invest its reserves in Bitcoin. Ive heard this rumour for months, but it looks more and more logical and likely.
This article sums it up pretty well and if it does become true, it will surely bring a very strong bullish trend .
Fake news. The source of this rumor, the "Russian economist", is not working in government. Basically, he is just a teacher.
Is that just fake news, friend? but if this is true it will be very fantastic news. and I'm sure BTC will grow even more
yes, in my opinion it's just fake news because it won't be possible for a country the size of Russia to replace USD reserves with bitcoin. of course if it really happened the whole world would be surprised by this and surely bitcoin would soar.
