Yes, it is Gradually happening, crypto currencies are gradually taking over, governments of many countries are beginning to see that this is a revolution that can't be stoped, and they have to move along with it else, they will be left behind.
Several countries of the world are now taking the center stage in the Cryptocurrency because the next reserve currency will be
BTCitcoin, like it or not, even take it to the bank.
I want to personally urge everyone here to get really serious in Cryptocurrencies now, if you have a business, start accepting cryptocurrencies of your choice as a means of payment for your goods and services (I've started accepting crypto payments in my wine shop), you can do the same beginning from today, learn day trading if you don't know how to, cus very soon, the currency traders will transit from forex trading to crypto trading, the earlier you get involved, the better you will you be positioned for what's coming, make sure to have short & long term investments in Cryptocurrency just like you do with real estate/land investment, because Cryptocurrency is the future of Money. We that are here now are lucky to be in it this early.
The Russian rubble (as well as many other fiat currencies of the work) have been on a steady decline since the past five years, no wonder Russia is now looking to turn to
BTCitcoin for help.
Meanwhile on the other hand,
BTCitcoin has been on a steady rise in the past five years,
BTCitcoin is the digital Gold.
