🎤 In a recent opinion article, journalist Olga Samofalova argued that Bitcoin could become a strategic ally for Russia in 2025.

These are the highlights:

📌 BTC does not depend on any authority, making it ideal for evading international sanctions. According to Samofalova, the Eurasian country needs to streamline trade with its allies.

📌 Although she acknowledged that Russia is also working on other solutions for cross-border payments, such as the digital ruble, Olga believes that this tool may be of little use for international trade – as it does not offer anonymity.

📌 The journalist was fully aligned with the statements made by Putin in December, when he emphasized that there is no authority that can prohibit bitcoin. At that time, the Russian leader noted that new technologies will continue to develop regardless of what happens with the US dollar.
