But life does not stand still. Immediately after the first sanctions on the Chinese model, the first Russian payment system was launched, on the cards of which wages have already been transferred to almost all state employees. At the same time, our specialists are working to create alternative channels for interbank cooperation.
Our banks are already considering the launch of such a system using the Russian blockchain-platform. And our mathematician, the teacher of Moscow State University Alexander Borodich came up with it. He is now called the creator of the first Russian blockchain platform. The very one that allows you to conduct over 20 thousand operations per second and allows you to instantly make a large number of transactions, which is so important for the economy.
In his recent message to the Federal Assembly,
President Putin talked about the need to use the latest technologies in the banking sector based on the principle of a blockchain (a distributed database in the form of a "chain of blocks" that exist independently of each other). The use of such a scheme can significantly help the Russian financial system in case of disconnection from the SWIFT banking system.
This is especially true on the eve of the World Cup, which is going to come to tens of thousands of fans. Most of them, of course, will pay for everything with their cards. And in the event that the SWIFT system is blocked, it will already have an alternative, ready for use in Russia. Since the decentralized system works on blocking technology, mutual settlements between the participants will be made instantly."
