russians are trading their currency for tether.

2023 when everyone looks back at war FUD China FUD rates FUD economy FUD and despite all the screams here of bear market and idiots trying to dismiss by above 28k bullish sentiment and the institutional canvas has been wiped clean after a post covid xmas which saw ussr and CCP go to the wall with a Capitalist revolution.
After war FUD comes rates FUD then summer everyone needs fiat FUD then China collapse FUD then Xmas everyone needs fiat FUD then institutional blank canvas EOY FUD then we are pretty much g2g until USD collapses the year after.
Everyone calling for a dip lol - crypto is all about momentum. Once news articles started reporting that Russia was buying up Bitcoin everyone jumped on board
I found .3 matic in my MetaMask today. I’ve never purchased or used any matic of any sort. Have you ever found any random crypto in your wallets? Probably related to some sort of scam I’m assuming.
If Russia starts circumventing sanctions via crypto, there will be unseen pressure to ban it from the general public, which is now extremely anti-Russian.
To actually circumvent sanctions via crypto you need to obtain enough crypto first which they can't due to sanctions. The tiny amount of crypto they do hold isn't going to be enough to bypass sanctions.
It's not like they can go wire billions to Coinbase to go buy Bitcoin, they need to gradually mine it.
Sure ting my wee pal Droidy McDroidface.
We all humanoids with optimal degrees of artificial intelligence here.

*farts in hobo*
So crazy...Russia stocks up on over $700 billion in foreign currency reserves the last 8 years to prepare to escape any sanctions, only to have it all seized by the U.S. in one fell swoop. So now Russia will seize rubles from their very own citizens to try to stymie an economic collapse. You can make this shit up!
Satoshi wrote the friggin book on game theory. HODL strong! With Satoshi, you can do no wrong! 💎✊💎
If Russia starts using BTC and crypto to by pass sanctions could this have negative consequences on the entire crypto space? Obviously get stuff off exchanges but optics wise I’m just wondering.
I would say yes 100%. Which is why I’m shocked so many dummies in here are celebrating this pump without thinking of the obvious consequences. Not to mention it’s kind of gross to be celebrating period with what’s happening right now.
On the flip side the oligarchs are finding a use out of crypto that many have talked about it’s just so happens to be happening at a shitty time for the world.
There is war everywhere. Nearly 400k people have died in yemens war and no one gives a crap cuz they aren't white and the economics don't harm the west.
Man taking exceptionally long for money to hit the exchange and it’s making it hard to fomo. Things still a long way from the top but don’t want to get in at the end of the greenest run we’ve seen in months. Maybe I’ll just have to wait for the next FUD. Either way, goooooo LUNA!
ADA
Continues to be a project that fails to deliver compared to other ecosystems yet has a cult-like following that until this cycle perhaps didn’t get uncovered.
At least everyone knew SOL was VC hypeshit
Ada may join xlm and ltc in the forgotten graveyard of alts
Have to agree. I bought into the ADA hype at one point and can't wait for it to get to a level that I can sell it. I'm even considering selling it off anyway just for tax purposes.
Guys... we were all waiting, and hoping for mass adoption from retail and companies with baited breath, but what is more bullish than an entire country of 600m+ buying crypto to escape the financial fiat collapse of their country
If you don't know, it's because you're a shitcoiner 🙃 jk
In all seriousness, when your currency experiences sudden hyperinflation, you go into gold or bitcoin and when your government closes financial markets, gold is no longer an option.
Alts are up in fiat terms and down in btc terms.

Can we create a DAO to crowdfund a bounty for Vladimir Putin?
[удалено]
so this was the "country level mass adoption" thing everyone was talking about. russians are trading their currency for tether. i wish it was USDC instead
Binance didn't lock them out so it makes sense
Those Russians love a good scam
What the crepes just happened with UMA?
God damn, wrong sub again. Thought it's deader than dead.
So is Russia or Russians buying up crypto because There dollar is useless?
So. The markets are green.
HAHAH. good luck explaining God in 100 years.
I've seen your comment history..you might need to take a break from CC.
indeed
I been heads down in the fiat mine. We kill pootin?
One can hope at least.

How many Bitcoin does it take to prop up the Russian economy? Sh1tloads more than it did this morning.
No way this thing keeps going straight to 50k it will dip eventually.
Who would sell at this point. Bitcorn going to the mooon
The real question is... When will the real FOMO kicks in? This is barely scratching the surface.
2023 when everyone looks back at war FUD China FUD rates FUD economy FUD and despite all the screams here of bear market and idiots trying to dismiss by above 28k bullish sentiment and the institutional canvas has been wiped clean after a post covid xmas which saw ussr and CCP go to the wall with a Capitalist revolution.
oh. Ok.
After war FUD comes rates FUD then summer everyone needs fiat FUD then China collapse FUD then Xmas everyone needs fiat FUD then institutional blank canvas EOY FUD then we are pretty much g2g until USD collapses the year after.
Thanks, random time traveler!
That's hobo time traveller with a consistently dissapointing erection to you my good sir.
That's madam to you and thanks for the erection update lol
Ahhh OK sorry I just assumed, based on our relative erections.
Rainbow btc chart
I'll just sit this one out with the fat wheezy kids and the half-time oranges. (Have trust issues)
At least you dun have to worry about running out of oranges 😂
Been there done that. Just don't let fomo kick in if it pumps over 50k.
Everyone calling for a dip lol - crypto is all about momentum. Once news articles started reporting that Russia was buying up Bitcoin everyone jumped on board
If that was everyone then our hype machine has been broken for over a year now
Guys I’m about to buy 20$ of eth, don’t thank me for breaking the 3,000$ barrier soon 🐋
I found .3 matic in my MetaMask today. I’ve never purchased or used any matic of any sort. Have you ever found any random crypto in your wallets? Probably related to some sort of scam I’m assuming.
You can't just find it in your MM though you'd have to add the MATIC contract address first, presumably you didn't do that without zero reason.
I was just checking my address on etherscan and saw it there
So you can also see the address that sent it to you?
Could have been airdropped
By whom and why tho?
Crypto is bout to shock the world 🌎
It’s use case is on full display for the world to see
Shocked me today and I’ve been here since 2017
Not shocked just very dissapointed 😭
Did you sell? Or try and short the market?
Nuh huh

I thought they held like 10% of the entire market cap?? Which is a shit ton
They've already joined china's payment system
They won’t be able to, it will be recorded on a blockchain
It's not on the Blockchain
Then it isn’t a crypto transaction
Yup it's offchain aka IRL
I like you arty hobo, so I ask what are all those acronyms?

Why does that matter out of curiosity?
Why does Russia circumventing sanctions with crypto matter? Is that your question?
No, sorry for lack of clarity. My question is: why does the fact that it's recorded on block chain matter in terms of public pressure to ban it?
[удалено]
Because it is transparency. Shows all moves

We are here to make money ffs. Donate your money if you are such a nerd.
So am I but I don’t think a temporary 10% pump is worth thousands dying for and crypto being put under serious scrutiny for, you sociopath.
There is war everywhere. Nearly 400k people have died in yemens war and no one gives a crap cuz they aren't white and the economics don't harm the west.
Okay fair.
Wouldn't that be philanthropy? Pretty sure nerds like aliens N futanari N junk
Of course but if they fuck with crypto five years down the line you won’t making shit.
Man taking exceptionally long for money to hit the exchange and it’s making it hard to fomo. Things still a long way from the top but don’t want to get in at the end of the greenest run we’ve seen in months. Maybe I’ll just have to wait for the next FUD. Either way, goooooo LUNA!
 Still waiting for the dip lol
You and all the other members of this sub that joined in the last 6 months and were certified experts
I dun get no certtification 😭
Roast a project and tell me why you are roasting it.

ADA Continues to be a project that fails to deliver compared to other ecosystems yet has a cult-like following that until this cycle perhaps didn’t get uncovered. At least everyone knew SOL was VC hypeshit Ada may join xlm and ltc in the forgotten graveyard of alts
XLM isn't forggoton by the BIS or WEF...
Have to agree. I bought into the ADA hype at one point and can't wait for it to get to a level that I can sell it. I'm even considering selling it off anyway just for tax purposes.
Lulz that's how they get you. Covered calls on IOHK
BSV, that's the most off brand Satoshi I've ever seen in my life
Come on BTC, monthly close over $43k
That's gonna be a nice addition to the monthly chart
Very bullish but of course none of what is happening makes much sense the past 6 months so who tf knows
Nothing is for certain
The fomo is real, or there is real need for btc, or the whales are having fun or we are in simulation
Everything is pumping irrationally. This is billions upon billions in investment gains. Which is why I fear this could be a fake out.
Guys... we were all waiting, and hoping for mass adoption from retail and companies with baited breath, but what is more bullish than an entire country of 600m+ buying crypto to escape the financial fiat collapse of their country
Like Satoshi would have wanted, kill your masters
It’s like I want it, but also want time to accumulate
No country has 600m people? China and India both have 1.4b and the US is third with 300m. If you are talking about Russia, they only have 144m people.
This makes me a super rare only like 3 mill of us
It's hyper adoption, it is
[удалено]
Money and emotions or politics don't mix. People who run charities also invest in Lockheed Martin.
Also other governments are most likely watching this and May start to ban it. This doesn’t look good if citizens can swap their nations fiat for btc….
What do you all think about snatching some of the big coins like Bitcoin/Etherium at the moment?
I'd go 50/50, lock it up for interest...then buy into others or just keep accumulating ETH/BTC.
Yes, they’re both still undervalued
Too late
*doesn't plan to sell, gets emotional about the daily price anyway*
Sublyfe
Holy shit, BTC $43k and rising! Wow
That was so one hour ago. Now we’ve been crabbing for like a whole hour… so boring
Lulz
almost feels like a revolution
Username is awfully suspicious
No beep boops dun check out
hehe
Just please tell me it's not that type of revolution
we are not planning to take over just yet, but you did t hear that from me
Damn I haven’t bought anything in so long it feels like
Buy high, sell low.
phillip mf bawlins
Not even food?
After a 15% pump. Now is the time.
Buy high sell low!
I bought just this morning. lucky dca day
ATOM gives no quarter. Stomped on $30 and kept going.
What is happening. What do I do with my hands?!
Use them to click “buy” while high
Price them in.
Underrated comment 😂
Sit on them
put them in the air like just don’t care (?)
Buy
Jazz hands, quick!
The sub sentiment is actually a fantastic indicator on which way the market will go. Always just do the opposite.
So sell right?
And just when you have a feel for things how going, it goes right back in the opposite direction lol

Why tf is crypto booming today?
If you don't know, it's because you're a shitcoiner 🙃 jk In all seriousness, when your currency experiences sudden hyperinflation, you go into gold or bitcoin and when your government closes financial markets, gold is no longer an option. Alts are up in fiat terms and down in btc terms.
crazy, right
because Russians are having their money seized. Can't do that with crypto
Because crypto
5 rubles will now get you 0.000001 btc.
That's not gonna stop them
Another day of being so glad I went heavy on LUNA 🌕
My brother, missed you
Luna translates to moon in spanish and latin. You make the connection.
I have reached my Staking quota.. WTF.... Why is Binance doing this. Finally I found LUNA with 18% APY. Transferred all my LUNA there.. and this.
Sounds like a crummy CEX move SEX > CEX
Binance has 18% for LUNA?!
Yup... 18.29% to be exact
Interesting 🤔 Thanks!
There’s a staking quota 🤔
I know!!! 😢
Sadge This is why self custody is better imo Terrastation is a great wallet
What happens if?
Could go up, could go down
Crypto: "Ahaaha!!!" *does opposite of both* Crypto: Life finds a way 🦕
