I would think a lot has to do with the volitility of the currency making bitcoin a good value to use and an opportunity for profit
Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Nigerian Princes like bitcoin for the same reasons.
Networking is all about the ability to present yourself well, find valuable contacts and share experiences.
I think in Russia they are the best of the best.
Networking is fun  Grin
Supporting people with beautiful creative ideas. Bitcoin is because of the developers,exchanges,merchants,miners,investors,users,machines and blockchain technologies work together.

The answer lies in Russia's history.

That history has taught them in a very viscerally painful way not to trust paper currency (and central authorities that govern it).

Those holding the Euro are next to get this painful lesson... those holding the Dollar will get it soon after that.

Said, how clueless the average American is who's spending that paper. They have no clue how the Federal Reserve scam works.  Talk to the average Russian though, and they have a completely different view.

Cheers

As a guy who has Russian mentality I assure u that main cause is free money (bitcoins). Smiley

I never thought my life could be. Anything but catastrophe. But suddenly I begin to see. A "BIT" of good luck for me. Cause I've got a golden ticket!
