Ethereum was, is and will be the leader of altcoins for a long time. It has a good team and many useful features. Some coins, including BNB, simply copy the functions of ethereum, improving them a little. Now ethereum continues to be updated and improved, and this inspires confidence that this coin will be ahead of all altcoins for a long time to come.

Do not underestimate the ability of states to regulate and ban the circulation of cryptocurrencies. In China, as far as I know, the ban on the use of cryptocurrencies is not formalized by the regulations of the government or the legislature. It was at the level of the Central Bank of China - the People's Bank of China, and this is not the same thing. Therefore, where the banking system cannot control the situation with cryptocurrency, the Chinese are relatively easy to bypass such a ban.
As long as the G20 countries adhere to the previous decision that cryptocurrencies do not pose a threat to global financial stability, there is no need to fear serious bans on cryptocurrencies.

Russia as a state and Russians as a nation are now rapidly sliding into an abyss with a long period of economic decline, isolation from the outside world, a drop in living standards, which before that was at a minimum level compared to European countries, and most importantly, the degradation of the psyche and morality.

A recently captured Wagnerian told how, on the orders of his command, he, along with others, cleared the territory in Bakhmut, killing all the local residents, including the elderly, women and children. How the five-year-old girl squealed, whom he finished off with a shot in the head. How he destroyed the captured Ukrainians along with the Russian mobilized, who refused to storm the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, throwing grenades into the room where they were, and then poured petrol over the still alive and set them on fire. The world was already horrified by the atrocities that the Russians are perpetrating in the occupied territories of Ukraine. Moreover, these are territories with a Russian-speaking population, which they allegedly came to liberate from the mythical Nazis, whom no one had even seen in their eyes.
Recently, the network was agitated by a video of a Ukrainian prisoner of war being cut off the head with an ordinary knife, which was deliberately distributed on social networks. The intent is twofold: partly to intimidate the Ukrainians, and partly to provoke a response of anger in them so that the Russians avoid captivity.

Both Russians and Ukrainians will have to live with this, and therefore the gap between these peoples is growing and expanding.

If Russia has received any material benefit from the war it has unleashed with Ukraine, then it is temporary. Recently, I saw a figure in the news that only 9 percent of foreign enterprises withdrew their assets from Russia. Russia blackmails and threatens them in every possible way, threatening to nationalize their property if they try to leave the country. Many of the foreign enterprises are ready to take certain losses in order to leave Russia, but it is difficult to sell their property there. As a result, Russia will be recognized as an unreliable partner for doing business, and foreign business will gradually leave Russia.

Earlier, Russia refused to return several hundred civilian aircraft that were leased from other states. But they can only be operated in Russia, and their maintenance is impossible due to the lack of imported components. Therefore, there are more and more accidents and plane crashes, and Russian planes are being arrested in order to compensate for losses. After a short period of time, the Russian air fleet will be practically destroyed.

The transition to a monetary system with a more limited supply for states is absolutely unacceptable. It is impossible to try to transfer the principles of operation of the cryptocurrency to the fiat system of states. The amount of fiat in the state should be generally equal to the amount of material assets that can be in circulation on the territory of the state. Any deviation causes negative consequences for the economy of states.
The transition to the fiat of another state or to cryptocurrency also negatively affects the economy of the state.

Ukraine has not lost its territories for a long time, and with some exceptions, it is only returning back. In practice, this happened two months after the Russian attack, when the central and northern regions of Ukraine were liberated. In any case, after the mobilization of more than 300 thousand people in Russia in September and the Russian winter offensive, the Ukrainians did not lose their territory.

  The fighting in Bakhmut takes place with varying success, since the Russians make more than a hundred attacks per day, incurring colossal losses. In recent days, the center of Bakhmut, the railway station, the railway was again recaptured from the Russians, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are successfully counterattacking. Both roads leading to Bakhmut are also under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The Ukrainian army does not retreat in any sector of the front. This information is incorrect. Moreover, except for Bakhmut and Avdiivka, as well as at Svatovo and Kremennaya, the Russians do not attack anywhere else and go on the defensive, since they do not have enough troops or equipment to attack.

Now in Ukraine, the formation of the so-called "Offensive Guard" of about 60-70 thousand exclusively volunteers with experience in combat operations or law enforcement agencies is nearing completion. They will be the shock fist of the spring offensive. In a month or a month and a half, we will see how the Russians will flee in panic from the south and east of Ukraine. It's not long now.

Rumors about the need to get rid of the dollar are deliberately spread. This is nothing more than political propaganda that has nothing to do with reality. For the first time, a Chinese journalist spoke on this topic, and it was gladly picked up by opponents and competitors of the United States. All fiat currencies are now experiencing difficulties and inflation after the coronavirus pandemic and the intensification of various cataclysms in the world, including artificial ones, such as wars. The dollar may weaken a little, but this does not mean that it will lose its role as a world reserve currency.

It is hardly worth agreeing with your opinion. Almost the entire combat-ready army of Russia perished on the territory of Ukraine. That is, the military experience of the Russians was very short-term. In Russia, they continue to mobilize those who do not have combat experience into the army, and they are almost immediately thrown into the assault on the fortified positions of the Ukrainians, where they die ingloriously. Now the opinion is being expressed that two or three brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine may well be on Moscow and capture it. After all, there are no longer any significant military formations in Russia itself. That is why the Kremlin is now demanding a truce through the mouths of Lukashenka, Orban and other assistants.
China, with its population of almost one and a half billion people, can easily capture the whole of Russia without any problems. But China has the opportunity to do this not by military means, but by purely economic means. Apparently, the bet is already being made on this option.

As Wikipedia says: a unitary state is a form of government in which the state does not include any state entities with elements of sovereignty, and its constituent administrative-territorial units are subordinate to single central authorities.
 
This form of government does not at all contradict the multinationality in this state. Now almost any state is multinational, because in open civilized states, thanks to the current technical progress, people of all races and nationalities move freely. And this does not mean at all that the representatives of all nations in each state must necessarily have separate elements of their sovereignty.

Although Russia is a federation according to the Constitution, in fact it is more suitable for the classification of a unitary state, since the nations and nationalities representing it do not have any real rights. Moreover, now Russia is more like a monarchy, which is single-handedly ruled by the monarch - Putin. He makes sole important decisions, and all other state democratic institutions are actually subordinate to him. The central government rests on repressive law enforcement agencies that suppress any dissent. So, in fact, only Putin and several other persons close to him made the decision to invade Ukraine militarily. And to go out into the streets with slogans for peace and against war, for this any citizen faces a long prison term.

But failures in the war against Ukraine inevitably cause centrifugal tendencies, and it is precisely this that Russia should be afraid of in the near future.

If everything was good with the economy in Russia, then it would use its own ruble in trade relations with other states. But since the Russian ruble has become toxic and no one needs it, Russia has to support the economies of other countries using their national currencies. But Russia does not use the dollar or the euro, not because it does not want to, but because the imposed sanctions and the disconnection of its banking system from the international payment system SWIFT do not allow it to do so.
It is no coincidence that Russia is now demanding to reconnect Rosselkhozbank to the SWIFT system, in exchange for the extension of the "grain agreement" for the export of agricultural products from the ports of Ukraine.

If we do not take climate change and its negative effects very seriously and take the most decisive steps, then humanity will shrink and die out at a rapid pace. It will no longer be up to finance and not to cryptocurrency. Natural disasters will intensify: earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, fires and floods, storms, tsunamis and other natural phenomena will intensify and become commonplace. Part of the continents around the planet will go under water. Governments will not be able to oppose these phenomena. Therefore, there is no need to calculate how expensive it will be for us to switch to alternative energy sources. All this is a trifle compared to what nature can show us in the near future.

International sanctions are imposed not only against the initiators of the aggressive war in Ukraine, but also against the country as a whole, its military-industrial complex, economy, legal entities and all citizens in general, in order to make them realize the criminal nature of the seizure of foreign territories in the 21st century in the center of Europe and encourage concrete action to end it. Sanctions are designed to reduce the financing of the war, and therefore Putin alone cannot do here. It is absolutely logical that every Russian will eventually feel the negative consequences of the attack on Ukraine, and not only those living today, but also their descendants, who will have to pay reparations to Ukraine for the material and moral damage caused for a long time to come. The sanctions are only gaining momentum, so the worst time for the Russians is ahead and they need to get used to it.

It will be necessary to pay for the pleasure of killing, torturing, robbing and raping in Ukraine, to pay to all Russians, without exception, who could not prevent and then stop this war. Therefore, there are no innocent Russians in Russia, all murderers or accomplices of murderers. Everyone contributes to this ongoing war. The killer is not only the one who recently cut off the head of a captive Ukrainian who was defending his country from the invasion of killer orcs, but also those who, through their inaction, contributed to this.

Changing the Twitter logo to the Dogecoin coin symbol was just Elon Musk's long-running April Fool's joke. Now Twitter has its former logo. Because of this joke, the price of Dogecoin rose decently in the first days of April, but in recent days it has been steadily declining. Now CoinMarketCap shows a drop in its price of 8.82 percent. Such a joke can turn into big price problems for this coin, since the relatively rapid fall in the price of Dogecoin at the present time, when the rest of the cryptocurrency is growing, can provoke a panic.

At all times, Moscow and St. Petersburg were supplied with everything necessary to the maximum, and the rest of the territory according to the residual principle. Therefore, the state of affairs in these two cities does not reflect an objective picture throughout Russia. In addition, Russia, of course, has a large margin of safety, which is now rapidly decreasing. Therefore, for the time being, the appearance of relative prosperity remains. The National Wealth Fund of Russia is catastrophically decreasing, the budget deficit has been growing rapidly in recent months, and the gold reserves are starting to run out. If Putin's life lasts another year and, accordingly, the war in Ukraine continues, all this will be clearly seen by the Russians by the end of this year.

Ukraine is a unitary state and therefore there can be no autonomy in it regarding the structure of state power, the presence of law enforcement agencies with special powers, and so on. What happened to all the autonomies, where the Russians speculate in the Russian language and the Russian-speaking population, we have already seen in the example of the so-called Transnistrian Republic, North Ossetia, and so on. Russia provokes a conflict on the basis of language and under this pretext introduces its troops and promotes its state interests.

  In the situation with the Donetsk and Lugansk regions of Ukraine, the task was somewhat different. Russia wanted to achieve extensive autonomy in these areas with its own authorities, law enforcement and judicial structures and then transfer the destroyed territory back to Ukraine, so that by representing this autonomy in the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, blocking Ukraine's entry into the EU and NATO. But the plan of Russia was not destined to come true.

In the future, there may be several state languages in Ukraine, but not the language of the occupier. It is already proposed to introduce, in addition to Ukrainian, English as the second state language. This will forever put an end to possible further Russian aggression on the basis of the Russian language and the Russian-speaking population. By the way, already now the population of Ukraine, including the eastern regions, is voluntarily trying to switch to an exclusively Ukrainian language so as not to experience another "Russian spring" anymore.

Russia had high hopes for Chinese support in its war to take over Ukraine, as well as for Chinese yuan to support the Russian economy, but these hopes were not destined to come true.

The results of Xi Jinping's visit to Russia turned out to be not even zero, but negative for her. China does not give Russia anything and will not even allow North Korea to help the Russians. Moreover, it became known that the Chinese Central Bank banned the import of cash yuan into Russia. Thus, Xi Jinping begins to slowly move away from the loser and criminal Putin, so as not to get himself dirty.

China is systematically distancing itself from the Russian Federation, cutting it off from itself, and the inhabitants of the Kremlin and ordinary Putinists are simply numb with horror looking at what is happening. Because all their hopes were connected with the People's Republic of China and some kind of lend-lease from there. In Russia, they said that without China it would be very difficult for them, in general, they would not be able to pull through without China. Now it turns out that they will not be pulled out.

Fractional reserve helps banks free up more funds to put into circulation and make more profit. If there are any problems with cash that need to be issued to depositors, interbank assistance is usually involved. Failures in the banking system occur, as a rule, either due to the inept management of funds, or even to the abuse of bank employees. Therefore, failures in the banking system are always temporary, this system is quite stable and always recovers. An important role in its existence is played by the state and its government, which help banks in difficult times. Therefore, banks and their fiat will continue to exist.

According to official data from the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation, in the Russian Federation in 2023 there is a sharp drop in oil and gas revenues compared to the same periods of previous years.

It turned out that the revenues of the Russian state budget in March of this year amounted to only 688.2 billion rubles (for comparison, in March 2022 they were equal to 1.208 trillion rubles).

Representatives of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation published data according to which the average price of Russian Urals oil in March 2023 was $47.85 per barrel, which is 1.86 times lower than in March 2022 ($89.05 per barrel).

It is worth noting that in February this year, the oil and gas revenues of the aggressor state showed an even lower result - 521.2 billion rubles (in February 2022 - 971.7 billion rubles).
There are two main reasons for such a depressing situation in Russia - a protracted war of conquest on the territory of Ukraine and the imposed international sanctions. If the Putin regime continues this war, then by the end of summer, the beginning of autumn, a real catastrophe awaits Russia.

Factory production and the development of artificial intelligence (AI) are completely different categories in terms of the threat to the continued existence of mankind. The development of factory production threatened only a part of the workers who were replaced by machines and deprived of their jobs. Here the situation is radically different. Artificial intelligence is able to learn and in many ways can surpass humans. And this is a threat that it is almost natural and logical that AI will want to destroy humanity. Already, human-piloted military aircraft have been able to hold out against AI in a simulator for only a minute and a half. AI fully predicts human actions and instantly makes the right decisions.

Now they predict the emergence of a new version of ChatGPT-5 and this will mean the practical identity of AI with the way a person thinks and realizes.
Such an AI is capable of understanding or learning any intellectual task that humans can perform. This is a direct threat to humanity and therefore it must be approached very seriously.
