Apparently the Crocus Hall attack in Moscow was paid for by Ukraine in 'cryptocurrency'.

This is what Moscow itself is asserting.

Without getting into an argument about the validity of Moscows assertions, what are the implications of this were it to be true and paid for in Bitcoin, given the hostile legislation already seen in Europe so far?

It is only natural that terrorists are paid in bitcoins and xmr. They can't be paid in dollars and euros. They are terrorists, not fools.

I'm old enough to remember when Obama sent several plane loads of cash to Iran.

Next someone is going to tell me it's better to pay for hookers and blow with crypto.

Cash is easiest for corruption.

"Hamas discovered all too late that making illegal transactions in bitcoin is a financial suicide mission. That’s because the open, transparent nature of the blockchain is a panopticon for intelligence agencies, allowing them to track transactions in real time with a speed and precision that would be unthinkable in the world of fiat currency."

Thanks for the article, I appreciate it.

nobody need any article evident to understand psyc-op by an agency

No harm, I specifically said I wasn't interested in the validity of the claim, but rather the hypothetical.

most of these big pub articles itself are part of pys-op itself in molding public opinion n mood - for other who didnot realize that yet

Okay, I'll consider that. I'm aware how fucked the media is, operation mockingbird and all of that.

reading is fine - always analyze enemy news n propaganda BUT DONT BUY it on face value

Use it for what it's worth.

That's why I quoted a specific part. We all know the media so no need to get butt hurt.

I promise, I wont. Thank you kindly.

That reply was intended for captjack. Nostr still has a bit to go in its reply format.

Yeah man, bit more time in the oven. Cheers.

I'm aware that there are ulterior motives, this is geopolitics. I'm just trying to piece together the implecations of making that claim internationally.

Which 'cryptocurrency' are they talking about. (bullshit or not),

does this open up criminal proceedings in an international court involving cryptocurrency payments?

someone either too dumb or implanted evidence by big dumb agencies (both sides) will use the most transparent n traceable on chain blockchain like bitcoin for these kind of hidden payments.
