CoinDesk Podcast Network - BREAKDOWN: Is Bitcoin Freedom Money or a Tool for Sanctions Evaders?
Ukraine’s resistance has seen more than $30 million in direct crypto donations.
This episode is sponsored by Nexo.io, Arculus, FTX US and Cointelli.
On today’s episode, NLW looks at the contrasting public images of crypto regarding the Ukraine-Russia war. On the one hand, the Ukrainian resistance has raised more than $30 million from more than 26,000 crypto donations while traditional fundraising platforms block similar efforts. On the other, some politicians and media are raising the specter of bitcoin and crypto as a way for Russian leaders to minimize the impact of sanctions. Which perspective on crypto is more correct as this generational conflict unfolds?
