It is still a mystery why Putin decided to declare Bitcoin a legal asset in the country as of recent. None of us really knows what his intentions are, although most people would likely be linking it to what has been happening now between Russia and Ukraine, and as you have said probably. We all have seen what happened as of recent as Russia has decided to attack Ukraine, and we’re all just waiting to see what is going to happen next, and what action the world is going to take.
Personally, I am hoping for the better and I never really wish this kind of thing to take place, because we all know the word it’s already in a messed up situation, since 2020 coming out from the pandemic, so we shouldn’t start facing War problem now, the world really needs peace at this moment, and not war.
One can’t anticipate the reason for Russia legalising Bitcoin. Russia’s Ministry even has proposed bitcoin mining but the timing for doing this is making me worry. Still hoping for the best.
