VitalikButerin Please make the best Russian rubble stablecoin

Thanks you veryy much_,, njfwb

It needs a bridge currency to link all stablecoins in one ledger that has to be public in order to maintain a fairer economy

People there can't even use usdt freely

As risky as the Rouble? 🤔😅

Well, not so risky as Euro anyway. I’d better stay with $USDT

Everything could change, depend on what you do today. You gotta live with each decision that you chose to make⚡✨

Risky as syfilis.

To them or us? 😂
