The gambling industry in Russia contribute an insignificant percentage of revenue to the Russian economy. Most sanctions on Russia have done little to deter them from continuing the invasion of Ukraine

am not in support of the ongoing war but i believe Russia has an important influence it contribute to cryptocurrency and sport as a matter of fact, even amidst the sanctions Russia is placed with, I don't see the inclusion of sport games into it because it doesn't in anyway contribute to the ongoing war neither do other aspect of the Russian economy undergoing sanction do support but what should be minded of us all is the global unity and oneness that sport games bring in bringing people together all across the globe, who need to be attacked are Putin and not the innocent citizens that seek a way out of the consequences of the ongoing war.

Unlike Russian soldiers, this boycott is not intended to kill civilians. The main goal is a peaceful boycott of Russian casinos to reduce the inflow of money to the Russian budget from taxes, which will reduce the support for the war.

This could be an effective approach but I guess even if we boycott the Russian gambling platforms, it still couldn't stop the war because aside from taxes from gambling, they still have lots of resources to support their current war. Innocent lives are already suffering from what is happening to their country but I believe that this too shall pass. The sad thing is, that this war could continuously take more lives.
