A month of WAR

[AicecreaME]

A lot has happened, there is sorrow and joy, some are happy and some are injured, some have lost their parents, and there are also countries taking advantage of wars, as well as crypto currency, Ukraine and Russia have started to switch to crypto currency with various reasons, such as Russia switching to crypto currency to avoid various sanctions, when will this war end..??

Indeed. There are so many challenges that happened in a short span of time most especially between Russia and Ukraine which have conflicts among them. Several issues are the root causes that are still haven't resolved up until now since Russia doesn't want to back down and Ukraine has to maintain their defense as well. If these things will keep on happening, a lot of people will continue to lose their lives in the war. Many structures such as homes and establisements will be damaged and maybe could be brought into collapse. Which is why hopefully, this will soon end.

However, it seems that NATO wants to be part of the picture due to Russia's attacks to Ukraine. If they would come forward to defend Ukraine, surely this war will not be over, but rather be worse. Because Russia do not want any intervention most especially of NATO. If any country or organization dare to cross them, certainly they will raise and level up the war.

Although the war is going on between Russia and Ukraine, its impact will be unprecedented on the whole world in the near future.

I disagree. It is also clear from the past month that it is not affecting the "whole" world. It is just affecting Russia and Ukraine (obviously!) and any country that depended on these two countries for goods (wheat, energy, ...) namely many of the European countries. It is also affecting countries with big but weak economies, that would be U.S.

Government spending of finite resources is allocated between guns (defense) and butter (civilian goods).

There is nothing new about this!

That shows that world nations have been focusing more on ~ trying to have peaceful relationships with other nations,

You do realize that this is not the only war going on right?
It is not even the biggest one in the past decade (geographically, number of casualties, duration, destruction, people displacement, number of countries involved). If they were focusing on peaceful relations we wouldn't have had this many wars so far!

[zaesvlas]

I have said it more than once, and I will continue to say it. People have so many resources for useful inventions, and most of the money is still spent on wars and weapons.

[JohnBitCo]

The impact of the war that occurred between Russia and Ukraine, which is still continuing to this day, of course has resulted in losses and impacts on the world's economic growth and even some countries have been affected by the war, for example, as happened in the crypto world, which of course indirectly also follows the impact of the war. the war, and we also really hope that the price of bitcoin does not immediately fall freely in the midst of the economic conditions of countries in the world that are experiencing a slight downturn.

Unless and until the war between Ukraine and Russia is completely over, we will not see stability and positive momentum in bitcoin prices. There is a risk that any bad news between these two countries can suddenly dump the whole crypto market. So those who are trading should trade with care and do not let open your trades without any stop loss. Unfortunately, the possibility of a world war is still not over.

[Alisha-k]

The Russians has no choice but to embrace crypto at the moment else the will just have to face the reality of their declining economy. Bitcoin price is not getting enough stability because Bitcoin is spent more than it is held especially with  the high level of anonymous donations across the Ukrainian boarders. We just hope to see an end to the long standing war

I would guess that NATO will not be part of it in the military sense, they will not send soldiers for sure. That would mean basically attacking Russia directly, even if it is defensive reasoning, that will make Russia very angry and even though they are the ones who are wrong, they "may" use nukes in that sense.

This is why it is quite difficult to know what they will do, they are the ones who are wrong to attack Ukraine, but they are so disgusting that if you do not let them have Ukraine, then they may end up attacking the whole world, they are that bad. Well I have to emphasize that it is not "Russians" here, it is just Putin and people who love him and follow him, I am sure there are nice Russians there who are against this war as well.

I would like to add a recent news, that the Council of the European Union decided to ban cryptoactive services in Russia, due to the possibility that they resort to this method, for which they took precautions and restrictions of certain cryptographic services, this was one of the three financial measures that the European Commission presented before the EU Council together with the prohibition of transactions and the freezing of assets related to four Russian banks as well as the option of instructing the citizens of that country on trust.

Bad impact war and give moment for bitcoin dump drastically beside still not any way when war between Russia and Ukraine stopping, I think bitcoin still not get good momentum recovery and back to higher price after today drop drastically and lower price until $39,200. Will be the era bitcoin above $65,000 never have chance to see again? very bad if war impact have chance about bitcoin price drastically dump and I hope this war can ended soon for helping many citizen from Ukraine as war victim and right now many of them leaving their home to get more safety.

This I think, is about to happen as they are looking at crypto market to be one way for Russia to avail services bypassing some of their sanctions. Things will be more clear in the coming months as they implement those sanctions to Russia. But for now, we need to see the end of this war so people can rebuild their lives and move on from this terrible period.
Because as war continues, more innocent people will die and the harder to rebuild their nation again. I wonder what is Putin's state of mind right now, as their side is also losing heavily on this war.

Not sure if the dump has something to do with the war itself.

I mean there is also some selling pressure when we reach the top price of $48k, and slowly we have seen it the price going down and then hold.

But in the last week, it's very different, the market just decided to cash out again, because the pressure is too much already. The conflict will be there no doubt, but the effect won't be that big long term, it's just that the market chooses to cash out right now.

Due to invasion of Ukraine by Russia the world market declined for some time period. Further sanctions on Russia made the people and the government suffer as they weren't able to make any transactions. As a result Russian people started to use bitcoin. This continues to the extent of Russia making a decision on selling oil and natural gas in exchange for Rubles. As most of the western nations import oil and natural gas from Russia, there is big issue and every Countries contempts it. One amongst is Germany.

Now Germany have come up with plans of looking for  alternative sources of energy and phase out its reliance on Russian oil and gas in the wake of Moscow's invasion of Ukraine. The plant, with 5,800 modules on 360 floating elements, will go into service on May 24. Following this we can see more countries getting into the generation of alternative energy source than depending over Russia.

Do you think that this is not the biggest war in the last decade? It is hardly worth agreeing with this. Now, actually and directly, three states are participating in the war: Russia, which unleashed it, Belarus, from whose territory Russian troops invaded, fighters and bombers take off, and high-precision missiles are launched, as well as Ukraine, which was attacked. The war is now being waged on the territory of Ukraine, but it may well be transferred to the territory of other belligerent countries. Military airfields in the Rostov region of Russia, warehouses with fuel and ammunition in Belgorod have already been attacked, today a railway bridge in the Belgorod region was blown up, along which the Russians transferred equipment and ammunition to Ukraine. Now evaluate what common territory these three belligerent states occupy.

However, more and more states are indirectly drawn into this war due to the support of Ukraine with weapons. The United States, other NATO countries, England and even countries that were considered neutral and non-bloc provided the strongest support with weapons. Recently, the United States decided to help Ukraine through Lend-Lease, which has not happened since the Second World War. And this is not only weapons, but also medicines, any equipment and even food. Today, the EU countries have unanimously decided to support Ukraine with weapons, and we are already talking about tanks and other heavy weapons. Finland and Norway also decided to support Ukraine with weapons. The scale of the conflict is growing.

It would not be out of place to recall that Russia has already lost in Ukraine killed and wounded more than 40,000 of its military, 732 tanks, 1946 armored vehicles, 157 aircraft, 140 helicopters, 349 artillery systems, 111 multiple launch rocket systems, 63 air defense systems, 1406 vehicles, 124 UAV, 7 ships and other equipment. The numbers are impressive. She had not suffered such losses before in any wars since the Second World War.

After the defeat, Russia is now regrouping and concentrating its troops and equipment in eastern Ukraine, where grandiose battles are planned with the participation of thousands of tanks, aircraft and other equipment. Experts are already saying that this will be reminiscent of the biggest battles of World War II.

What military conflicts of recent decades can compare with this?

Why?
But I've seen Bitcoin had a positive momentum from the past couple of week after people decides to sell again after Bitcoin touched $47k.
Some of those events could've turn Btc to being bullish again after millions of donations are pouring to Ukraine and their president officially signed to legalized cryptocurrency in their country.
I don't think the war would cause a huge negative effect on cryptocurrency.

[zaesvlas]

Putin starts the situation further and further. What can you say about the escalation of relations with Finland?

[glendall]

Another one is that Putin made a statement for international companies having their operations in Russia to vacate their representatives else they face his life threatening sanction.

It's very very unfortunate if so, Russia is very arrogant in my opinion, like there is no need for other countries, even though the country is rich but don't they need help from other people/countries
Sometimes I wonder if the Russian people think the same as the head of state?

This is the wrong approach, but not unexpected. Green energy won't meet immediate energy demands. Germans will face higher prices because they'll need to sink the cost of R&D involved in green energy expansion and invest in the infrastructure. The ROI happens over decades. If they were smart they would not have depended on Russian oil to begin with, but the Germans laughed when Donald Trump suggested Nord Stream 2 construction wasn't a good idea.

Not all would really be in line on what their leader had been doing but in overall they would really be included on bad impressions on what global countries would really be treating since they do live on a place like this.
Sanctions is already imposed and the next effects could really be felt as this situation becomes more longer and lasting out. Investors and companies would totally be going to stop and go away considering on whats
the behavior of Russia on this recent times which we could not really blame off on why they do really have this kind point of view.They might not be needing them off as of this moment
but soon they would realize.

[pooya87]

Do you think that this is not the biggest war in the last decade?

It is a big war and is affecting a lot of innocent people but it is not the biggest war at all in the past decade. The media coverage of it is by far the biggest in history though!

three states are participating in the war: Russia, which unleashed it, Belarus,

The war against ISIS that took place in West Asia mainly between 2014 and 2017 with about 80 countries involved. During this time a new "country" was declared occupying territories bigger than Ukraine and later destroyed after 3+ years of war. This was not short of being a world war.
The number of civilian casualties are in the hundreds of thousands (more than half of them are killed by US coalition bombs!) and it is estimated that 11 million people were displaced due to this war (7.5 million from Syria and 3.5 million from Iraq and some from other territories).

What military conflicts of recent decades can compare with this?

Want another bigger conflict? How about the invasion of Yemen?
The Arab-US coalition have been bombing Yemen for the past 8 years. The casualties are 75000 civilians killed or wounded 8000 of which are children. 7819 Commercial facilities, 774 food silos, 4134 agricultural land, 1090 schools/kindergartens/universities, 827 medical facilities, 15 civilian airfields, 16 ports, 4743 roads and bridges, 600,000 houses, .... were destroyed.
Not to mention what UNICEF calls "the largest humanitarian crises in the world, with around 23.7 million people in need of assistance".

If the Europeans were not fed fake news, and the interested people themselves opened their eyes wider and tried to find out the news from the other side, then many would understand the essence of everything that Russia was motivated by in connection with the special operation in Ukraine. But today, the news background works ahead of events, creating a negative attitude towards Russia.
But according to the latest statistical polls, Putin is supported by more than 80 percent of the Russian population. Thus, the dislike of Nazism happening in Ukraine is justified. To everyone who listens to the news only from one side, it will someday be a revelation how stupidly and harshly they were deceived. But of course, it's their choice.

[Accardo]

It's sad at one end that Ukraine began a fresh year with Russia invading their country with armed military men and rocket attacks. Despite the bounce back of the Ukrainian army their economy must have suffered rigorously for the Government to legalize cryptocurrency as a means to survive and get financial help from people. The new order may help the price of bitcoin but, the life of civilians lost including kids saddens the world about this war. And the numerous sanctions on Russia seems sacrosanct on the actions of Putin. I think the war will not end soon if Ukraine doesn't get physical help from nearby countries and also invade Russia as well. Because it's a war and it shouldn't be one sided. Putin will not feel the pain of sanctions compared to the sadness on Zelenskky's face watching the life of His citizens scattered around the world seeking for shelter elsewhere while in the process falling into the hands of traffickers and other dangers. Russia is actually feeling no pains though we have our loved ones there but, it's time this betrayal ends and Ukraine allowed to fix her nation again.
