Apple and Google just cut off Russia from payment. Visa next.
I wonder what this means for LN?

I don't understand how people don't just immediately say "fuck it" when this sort of shit happens. If my country's economy crashed 50% overnight and my country's currency did the same, I'd be unapologetic about just stealing shit from corporations and government at that point.
Crypto solves this
give it a week, the russian aggression just invited an economic nuclear holocaust into russia.
dear putin please nuke the bay area but make sure the nukes don't kill me in livermore
cattle is too retarded
I have never used either.
I would "go to war" and just shoot civilians desu
seriously, when this happens in America the shitshow that ensues is going to be glorious
>guys you can't get in without paying
>I don't care that all electronic transactions aren't working find some paper to give me or fuck off
At what point do they just decide to not pay?
Ah. So never
So somehow giving the control over your money to monopolistic tech businesses didn't work out?
Call me shocked
lol what is Yandex
Can the average pleb of 2022 even still function without a smartphone?
Sometimes it's kinda scary how people look at you if you tell them that you do not have your smartphone with you or at least not always
I manage to live without one. Yubikey covers most 2FA needs. If people want to get a hold of me, they can email.
I dunno dude. We got so many guns and so much farmland. I'm sure we can figure something out amongst ourselves.
Kek this proves exactly why cbdcs are a bad idea
because in this particular case the government is the russian government
Dogecoin solves this
Lmao, all this will do is encourage Russia to copy or use Chinese systems. You idiots might think “we’re beating da Ruskies” but in reality you’re encouraging them to reject Western institutions. If I was Russia I’d be working overtime to switch to Chinese systems while denouncing “western” ones.
Good, people should not rely on foreign systems maintained by hostile powers, world is too interconnected anyway.
I think all the Putin shills on this board are npc faggots but you can see a dude swiping/scanning something there. That just looks like rush hour. I've never seen a ticket gate in the world that lets you pay in cash, there's ticket machines for that. Who knows.
