Comment on Poll: Do you think Russia planned on the sanctions and this outcome?

Comments

Russia has planned to become as independent as possible, to become the first major nation state to issue a digital currency,

I would say one of the first since China [0] already has issued their digital yuan CBDC. [0] But it seems that Russia has prepared for this years ahead and where ready to be hit with the sanctions.

I think that the sanctions against Russia will perhaps have the inverse effect people predicted

Perhaps so.

Edited it, I wrote incorrectly. I know other countries have created digital currencies, I am trying to say they are trying to become the first massive nation dependent on their own.
