I am not sure if Russia will be able to keep bitcoin under wraps as much as those various law announcements seem to require. Russia is saying that using bitcoin is o.k. so long as you do it under their rules and through their official systems... but if you try to use bitcoin as it was intended (for kinds of private peer to peer transactions), then that would not be legal.

Good luck with that.

Of course, the Russian govt likely knows their people and culture way better than some kind of outsider like yours truly - yet I am thinking that maybe the Russian govt feels that they have to frame their laws of "opening up to bitcoin" in those kinds of ways just to kind of keep some potential level of control over the whole thing?

From what little I know, I still have my doubts about the extent to which Russians are complying kinds of people (culture). They seem to be the opposite. They do not really like to follow rules, and so maybe that is why the Russia Govt has to appear so tough? We will see how it plays out, and I doubt that a government can ONLY make bitcoin acceptable for the elites and rule followers to the extent that they seem to have some target audience of "model citizens" that they are considering would follow the dictates.

I think the same goes for the whole world. Even China. Legal, illegal, that does not matter. Bitcoiners won't give up being Bitcoiners. If anything this "Russia wants to adopt Bitcoin" is doing great things for the Bitcoin price already.

All Omicron did to me is an ear infection which somehow turned into tooth pain. Seriously WTF.

Russian mentality be like:

I pick axe for woods,
I hit you in the head,
And then you die. Suka!

Cheesy

*edit(): There is also some spitting and kicking of the dead body after that, but that is just 'post mortem satisfaction' cuz dog is dead. Tongue

Sounds like something a bratty child would say. Russians are the most loyal friends you can have.
