they are saying "russia legalizing bitcoin payments for international business" in the headlines but i think technically they are decriminalizing it, because it was previously criminalized.

it's kinda big news for us bitcoiners though

it's yet more adoption of its bulk MoE use case, it probably opens the door to lightning payments for the micro-small-transaction use case, and is an interesting case study of proving Bastiat's point about how trade and war are a balance where one prevents the other, and preventing one encourages the other
