This is a very interesting scenario and that was really expected after sanctions. I'm curious why Russia didn't legalize Bitcoin mining soon after the war started. Btw this is a message and a warning for the rest of the world, the message is that Bitcoin is part of the modern financial system and it can't be abandoned or left without attention. Doesn't matter if any country wants it or doesn't want, they are forced to accept Bitcoin and keep their attention on it.
Who could imagine a few years ago if we would see such a picture? Lots of interesting events are going to happen soon. Just get your popcorn and watch the show and hold some Bitcoins too.
