Very sad news. The ban on the purchase of mining equipment is very easy to get around if you buy this equipment through neighboring countries or through gray import. The question is whether it will be profitable or better to find alternative places of purchase, the same China.

All this you have listed is what the word is looking for and it's a target of the future. They are all important skill one should get knowledge about and they are skills if obtained  one can be self employed and making a lot of cool money.
True. Now it is very clear that it is not necessary to receive several higher educations and devote your whole life to career growth, it is enough to engage in a digital profession. Even at my work they are already beginning to experience robotization of production, I need to look for a new job Sad
63  Economy / Economics / Re: WTF? Food prices expected to raise up to 50% in German supermarket. on: April 18, 2022, 05:38:25 PM
I think here Putin is playing his diplomatic tricks. And it didn't happen suddenly. It has many years of planning. Russia has built them in such a way that without the raw materials they produce, not only Germans but the whole of Europe is incapable. About 20 percent of Europe's food products and raw materials are exported from Russia. And these prices have risen because of the closure of these exports.
This is a worldwide practice. Basically, Russia can threaten Europe with biofuels, coal and oil have almost no pressure on Europe, only gas. The rest of the products have already been abandoned, now it is fashionable. Now they are trying to get away from dependence on gas. I think it will take several years, I don’t think that this winter in Europe it will be warm in houses.
64  Economy / Economics / Re: Russia announced a default on foreign obligations!!! on: April 17, 2022, 05:44:32 PM
Of course, Russia was bombarded with hundreds of sanctions, and its reserves in other countries were taken away. A full-fledged economic war, so Russia is trying to get out of this situation. Payment in another currency is the most realistic way out of this situation.
65  Economy / Economics / Re: Paying for russian gas usdt or usdc on: April 17, 2022, 01:27:00 PM
Indeed, Putin is looking for possible options to get away from paying for gas in dollars and euros. USDT now looks very good as a replacement for the traditional fiat, so Russia can get away from the strengthening of the dollar in the market.
66  Economy / Economics / Re: Where should I invest? on: April 16, 2022, 08:35:16 PM
As a newbie in the crypto environment, with a keen interest in making a profitable investment in crypto, where would you best advice me to invest in 2022. Will an investment in bitcoin now still be profitable to me or investing in other coins is what you best advice? I understand that people are sometimes reserved as per not wanting to give financial advice to avoid being blamed if it goes wrong, but I will try to go through all the responses I can get and highlight the answers that are repeated for consideration.
If you want a stable, almost non-volatile coin, then BTC will suit you very well. If you want to make money on P2P trading, then a lot of altcoins will help you. In general, if you are looking for a safe pillow for your money - BTC! Try to analyze the market yourself and do not ask for advice from others.
67  Economy / Economics / Re: Inflation and investment on: April 16, 2022, 08:28:21 PM
We all know that almost the entire world is currently experiencing variable inflation, and my country is no exception. Almost all goods prices have gone up, financial stability has been disrupted and most of us have had to incur additional costs to pay our bills due to rising tariffs and taxes.

At the same time I am still thinking about investing even though I am really having a hard time achieving financial stability at the moment. If previously I could save 50% of my total income for investment then for now only 25% seems difficult. If you are also experiencing this condition, then I have a few questions to answer.

  • Will you continue to invest even if it is only 10%-20% of your total monthly income?
  • How do you achieve financial stability during this inflation?

Share some of your thoughts, I think it would be good to consider especially as long as this kind of condition persists for a long time.
Of course, the future of the economic consequences of current events is unknown now, I will also choose places to create additional reserves in addition to foreign fiat, I had not thought about this before.  Really very much complicate the mandatory expenses that have grown by 30-35%, this has made my life very difficult.
68  Economy / Economics / Re: Life is a puzzle ! on: April 15, 2022, 01:48:22 PM
I follow the rule of 100 times to make a mistake, but 101 times to get it right. With such tactics, there is also a chance to live a happy life and succeed in something. Of course, it takes a lot of time and nerves, but the result is worth it. Maybe you should change your outlook on life and do things differently?
69  Economy / Economics / Re: Elon Musk makes offer to buy Twitter on: April 15, 2022, 01:11:59 PM
Quite expected. He wanted to create his own independent platform, but in the end he just decided to buy out a huge company for tens of billions, very cool. He needs a large platform in which he will introduce DOGE as a means of payment. After the purchase of Twitter, this change will happen quickly, possibly introducing a blockchain network.
70  Economy / Economics / Re: Rising inflation forces investors to look for defensive assets. on: April 15, 2022, 08:09:00 AM
I do not agree with you. The huge volatility of bitcoin will be worse than inflation, the slightest negative news is very strongly reflected in its price. If you know how to work with its volatility, then you can not lose your money on inflation. I tried to make money on bitcoin or keep my funds from inflation but sold everything on the bottoms like a hamster Smiley
71  Economy / Economics / Re: Elon Musk - Hinted that it would be nice if Twitter Ads be paid in Bitcoin on: April 14, 2022, 10:38:58 PM
I think it will. Elon recently announced that he wants to buy back 100 percent of the shares of Twitter, so the ability to pay with bitcoins. He wants to prove to everyone that bitcoin is a real means of payment, I think he will succeed. These events will greatly increase the price of bitcoin, so you can play on the appreciation.
72  Economy / Economics / Re: Pay in rubles or have your gas shut off by April on: April 14, 2022, 09:41:34 PM
Many countries indignantly refused to pay for gas in rubles. This is a violation of previously signed contracts. Most recently, at a meeting with Austria, Putin said that she could continue to pay in Euros, so the mood is not clear. I think Russia will sell gas for rubles, but selectively. A very difficult question, I think Putin will make you pay in rubles.
73  Economy / Economics / Re: Is crypto the final stage in the evolution of money? on: April 13, 2022, 03:13:03 AM
Many people think that crypto is the last evolution of money and nothing will ever replace crypto, but when there are more and more users the problem gets more complicated, transaction fees are getting more expensive, transactions are slower and many other problems. I believe that evolution will continue so I believe that one day there will be technology that can be better than cryptocurrencies.
Indeed, many problems pushed mankind to create new means of payment, and new very serious problems in the form of large commissions and long transactions will give an incentive to search for new forms of payments. I think there will be a more perfect type of means of payment than bitcoin or cryptocurrency. The commissions are already very high and this is without the huge burden that will arise because bitcoin will be paid all over the world.
74  Economy / Economics / Re: How to end dependence on russian gas? Heat pumps, electric heaters, alt fuels? on: April 13, 2022, 02:53:26 AM
All of Europe has long wanted to abandon Russian gas, so as not to be dependent on it. I think it will happen, but it takes time, at least to wait two winters. The nationalization of Gazprom's subsidiary, Gazprom Germania GmbH, will greatly help. The tanks of this company can be filled with gas supplied in the off-season from other countries in order to calmly survive the winter.
75  Economy / Economics / Re: Elon Musk - Hinted that it would be nice if Twitter Ads be paid in Bitcoin on: April 13, 2022, 02:42:04 AM
I think this will give a very good boost to bitcoin. Any such news gives a good result, if this really happens, then the price of bitcoin will rise very much. And the rest of the altcoins will start to grow behind it, it’s worth looking after a few for this moment. This will indeed be a big step for bitcoin!
76  Economy / Economics / Re: Bad economy is not good for either super rich or very rich on: April 13, 2022, 02:26:39 AM
I think a bad economy is something that the very rich are afraid of, when there is a bad economy, it is prone to riots so that their wealth can drop or even disappear, many very rich people have immovable assets such as land, factories, apartments and so on, when there is a bad economy then purchasing power decreases so this is what is very feared.
In many countries where riots took place, they were accompanied by vandalism, such actions are dispersed very quickly, but what if they are large-scale? I think then the really very rich can lose their property. These riots often occur because the standard of living is very low.
77  Economy / Economics / Re: Which is better, staking or investing? on: April 12, 2022, 06:34:45 PM
I think staking should be considered as a last resort. This is a safe way to earn money on investments but not profitable. I made a deposit in staking but I didn’t earn almost anything, it was a waste of time. I like P2P trading more, more risk and profit. Maybe I don’t understand how to make money on staking, so I didn’t earn anything.
78  Economy / Economics / Re: Sanction isn't the right option on: April 11, 2022, 04:51:27 PM
Sanctions put pressure on Putin, but were not strong enough to force him to back down. Russia has had first-hand experience with sanctions when they invaded Crimea, so they were expecting this and took it into account. What would have made Putin stop was a treaty with NATO but that's a bit too late now, is it? If the US doesn't have any ill intentions against Russia, then it's very easy for them to say "no, we're not going to make Ukraine an ally" because Ukraine doesn't qualify anyway. And since it's a treaty, the US could have made counter demands like "they would only agree if Russia promises never to invade any country again." But they didn't, proving all of Putin's claims in the face of the world. Yet the rest of the world decided to join the US in sanctioning Russia anyway, which they've never done when the US invaded Afghanistan for a fabricated claim. But Russia will survive the sanction and the countries that sanctioned it will be the true losers of this war because they've lost a lot but didn't gain anything. Ukraine is still gripped by war.   
You have described the problem very well. All the world's media are shouting that the war started because Putin wants to conquer Ukraine and take it for himself, but no one remembers that for several years he asked the West to refuse to join Ukraine in NATO, not to interfere in Russia's affairs. In the end, how did.
79  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic consequences of Russian-Ukraine War on: April 10, 2022, 09:35:22 PM
Indeed, many underestimated the place of Russia in the mechanism of the world economy, and this is very bad. Russia was very well prepared for the war and its consequences, but the West and the United States did not work out the levers of pressure very well. Of course the rejection of Russian oil and gas will hit its economy very hard, but many Western countries will not survive this!
80  Economy / Economics / Re: Russia wants to build a new world order with China on: April 10, 2022, 05:12:49 PM
I really believe in the new world economy. This is very beneficial for China, I think they will promote it. Now gas is bought for Yuan, India also buys gas not for dollars, some European countries are ready to buy gas for rubles.  Everything is moving in this direction. It's very interesting what the end result will be!
