Part of it is the propaganda by the carrot countries that has brainwashed people into thinking this way (that's actually part of that dangling carrot strategy).
But also part of it is because of very real problems that your country has been facing, from sanctions to corruption and economic hardship. I recall you guys had a lot of energy and fuel crisis, although there were a lot of cooperation with shitton of fuel and technology coming from our side of the world trying to fix the issue. Don't know if it is fixed since I didn't follow up on the news from 2-3 years ago.


I'm curious why you are looking for foreign investor instead of looking for domestic ones? That would be a lot better since it won't be someone else who takes the money out of the country that may also raise some red flags with the government and attract high taxes.
I know some people started very small many years ago (I saw on Reddit) and they built their operation little by little until reached a decent amount of hashrate. They were also doing other stuff to maximize their profit like importing goods (cheaper) using bitcoin and selling it locally for additional profit while helping the economy at the same time.
