In a surprising turn of events, Russia has announced plans to accept Bitcoin for oil and gas payments from friendly countries. The decision comes as the nation seeks alternatives to traditional financial systems amid ongoing sanctions. This move could potentially increase global demand for Bitcoin and challenge the dominance of the U.S. dollar in international trade.
The announcement has sparked debate among policymakers and economists about the implications for global financial stability. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-accept-bitcoin-oil-gas-payments-friendly-countries-2025-03-13/
