In my opinion, the Russians cannot rejoice at the strong ruble now. Let's see what they say about this in Russia itself.
"In fact, the inadequately high exchange rate of the ruble has a very negative impact on the Russian economy, which has been crippled by sanctions." This statement was made on the air of the federal TV channel "Russia 24" by the Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation Maxim Reshetnikov. The head of the Ministry of Economic Development said that the ruble "excessively strengthened" and called it a challenge for the Russian economy. "It creates a problem for both our exporters and importers," Reshetnikov told the Russians. He clarified that the ruble strengthened not "from a good life." This is the result of a sharp drop in demand for the currency in the country (primarily for the dollar and the euro). The minister called on the Central Bank of the Russian Federation to take urgent measures to weaken the national currency.

Today in Russia the dollar is traded at the rate of 55.8 rubles. True, it is almost impossible to buy it - there is no currency in banks, and speculators sell it much more expensive. In a healthy economy, the strengthening of the national currency is a sign of growth. However, in the case of Russia, this is evidence of "paralysis".
In fact, there is a currency in the Russian economy, but it is not in demand by either business or the population. Moreover, the population, perhaps, would like to acquire cheaper dollars and euros, but this opportunity was blocked by the authorities.
Plus, the Central Bank limited $10,000 per month to the possibility of withdrawing foreign currency abroad.

"A strong ruble in the current situation does not indicate the absence of systemic problems in the Russian economy. Moreover, it is more likely to become a very serious problem than a victory for the country's monetary policy. However, the reason for the strengthening of the ruble is actually artificial and is a consequence of the policy of the Russian central bank. There is only one reason for the strengthening of the ruble - a significant surplus in the country's balance of payments," Delo said in a comment. ua Chairman of the Board of Unex Bank Ivan Svitek.
"Measures taken by the Russian Central Bank back in February-March actually blocked the possibility of capital withdrawal from the country by foreign investors and significantly limited such opportunities for the population," the head of Unex stressed. "For example, now citizens of the Russian Federation are allowed to transfer no more than $10,000 a month abroad. Withdrawals of cash from accounts are limited. The ruble is not currently a freely convertible currency."

Somewhere towards the end of the year, we will see what will happen to the Russian ruble. And this will only be the beginning.

I will be extremely brief - if what you NOW call "good", then I'm even scared to imagine what happened to you and your country before today's period Huh
Now it becomes absolutely clear why you do not trust the Russian banking system ("I do not keep large savings in a bank deposit.")
I do not trust the banking system, not because it is Russian, but because it is a banking system. That's why I'm here.

"during the sanctions of 2014 after the annexation of Crimea, it was much worse" but this is generally interesting! Smiley I.e. actually absent sanctions gave a very negative result, and total sanctions - you only feel better? Excuse me - you are either lying or delusional ... Although stop .. There is another option - you just never saw what it is to live well Smiley
I don’t want to offend you, honestly, no offense, it’s just that this phrase is absolutely open illogicality or lies.
The sanctions of 2014 immediately halved the exchange rate of the ruble against the dollar and, accordingly, many goods also doubled in price, and the ruble exchange rate never returned back then, unlike the events of this spring. Therefore, every Russian painfully felt the sanctions of 2014 on his pocket. Now the ruble exchange rate has again fallen by half at first, but then quickly recovered to its original level and even better, so the impact of sanctions is much less noticeable.

Maybe in response you will share your impressions of how to live in a bankrupt country with an economy paralyzed by military operations, with a halved GDP, devaluation of the hryvnia and a key rate of 25%, which makes any commercial activity impossible except for short-term speculation? What is it like to be completely dependent on subsidies and handouts from the West?

I seriously think that everything is fine in Russia even now. You can always do something better, but this is not a reason to indiscriminately deny existing achievements. Thanks for the kind words.
...
My financial situation has known better times than today. But I take this calmly, during the sanctions in 2014 after the annexation of Crimea, it was much worse, during the crypto winter in 2018-19, perhaps, too. I do not make of consumption a religion or a cult.

And tell me, do you seriously think that by repeating propaganda slogans, denying the real picture of global changes, everything will be fine in your country? No, it will not ! There is an ancient saying - no matter how much you say halva, it will not become sweet in your mouth. So are you, cyclically repeating propaganda slogans, I hope that you will not be touched by the total problems approaching Russia. But I’ll give you credit, at least you don’t just copy-paste “from manuals”, you translate these slogans into your own words, and even dilute them with additional information. True, from the same propaganda sources, but believe me, against the background of 99% of primitive repeaters of the "spells" of Putin's nonsense, you look much better! Yes, and thank you - each of your answers (unless, of course, you pretend that you didn’t notice the question for which there are no blanks in the training manuals), this is a reason to smile, I really like it, it’s very cool Smiley
I seriously think that everything is fine in Russia even now. You can always do something better, but this is not a reason to indiscriminately deny existing achievements. Thanks for the kind words.

Speaking of sanctions, let me once again remind you of the question - if everything is so fine, why in Russia, at every opportunity, are they trying to persuade the West to lift sanctions? A conspiracy of the Kremlin's enemies of Russia? Smiley
The world has been inspired by the ideas of globalization for quite a long time, and as a result, the world economy turned out to be saturated with interdependencies, many of which are hidden and not obvious, and their influence is fully manifested only at the moment of rupture of ties. In general, Russia is doing well, with little debt, a chronic budget surplus, food security, an abundance of energy resources and a colossal surplus of raw materials - all this allows us to look to the future with confidence. The West underestimated the influence of Russia on the world economy, if you look at the extractive industries and subtract all sorts of inedible futures and services, you will get Russia's share in the world economy not 1.5%, but at least 6.5% (or even all 10%). And if Western sanctions threaten Russia with the speed of sustainable development, they put the West itself on the brink of existence. I will illustrate the idea with a fresh example. The other day, Canada refused to return a Siemens turbine to Gazprom from repair due to sanctions, and Gazprom had to reduce gas transmission through Nord Stream by two thirds, which caused the price of gas to rise by 25%. It turns out that the sanctions were imposed against Russia, and it is Europe that suffers from them first of all. Moreover, the United States introduces sanctions against Russia very selectively and often cancels it if it becomes unprofitable for it. I think that Biden and Putin agreed during the meeting last year how to divide Europe. Europe in this story is definitely a trophy and a victim, it pays for everything.

And another question - since everything is so beautiful, what are the reasons for these two facts:
- the recently adopted law, which allows Putin to single-handedly manage the deposits of the population, at his own discretion, including freezing "and other measures." What does the seizure "for the good of the motherland" mean, though it is not openly spoken about, but other measures are hidden behind the phrase ""? By the way, do you have savings that are in banks? Smiley
Difficult to answer, I don't know what kind of law you mean, please clarify. I don't keep large savings in a bank deposit.

- 80% of Russians started saving in the spring of 2022. Most of the respondents said that they are trying to save on everything (44%), some even on food, follows from a survey by the Zarplata.ru service. The main reason for savings 61% of respondents named the increase in prices. But you obviously don’t fall into these 80% of losers, did I guess correctly? Smiley

It was always funny to watch the Western haters who, with great joy, stuffed “unsecured dollars” and “fake euros” into their pockets. Moreover, in 99% of cases, they were stored in those very Western banks, and there, for a calm and comfortable life, all these Western-haters bought real estate, businesses, taught children there ... But they always told their people how bad it is to live there, what it is degradation, and other sins at every turn! But as soon as they begin to take away their illegally acquired property, or expel their children or wives to the "holy homeland", such squeals and hysterics begin, resentment that he was deprived of the opportunity to live "in the most sinful west"! Smiley
This is the huge positive effect of Western sanctions on Russia, which alone outweighs the many negative side effects. Paradoxically, sanctions hit hardest of all not ordinary Russians, but oligarchs, fifth-column liberals, and the duplicitous hypocrites you speak of.

What you are right about is that the dollar and the euro are now considered a scam in Russia.

For the dollar, the forecast is more favorable, for historical reasons, Russians love cash dollars.

Yeah right, every day changing the scenario, it's banned because they don't like it, it's banned because they like it too much, it is banned because they don't have euros and dollars, let's go on a different topic and Russia swims in euros and dollars because of oil exports, changing the narrative as the propaganda requires.

The mess the CB has done trying to prop the currency, create a bulletproof capital control and restrict money flow has led to some hilarious situations that remind us of the start of the Venezuelan crisis, probing the ruble artificially too much leads the merchants to demand the equivalent price in the actual exchange rate, not the one authorities claims so you end up with imported goods, despite being from outside western Europe being the most expensive in the worlds:
https://newsfounded.com/russia/today-russia-has-the-most-expensive-car-in-the-world-list-of-evidence-autonews/

Er, why? Even before I went to Europe, dollars and euros and even pound sterling, are more readily accepted in my corner of the world.

Usually, the more hated the US is in one country the more liked the dollar is, as a European it's a real slap on the face going to a completely non us friendly country and seeing everyone accepting dollars but not euros and the hotel owner telling you how they love Europe...

So, from May 20, the Central Bank of Russia removed all restrictions on the purchase by citizens of foreign currency in cash, except for dollars and euros. For dollars and euros, there are restrictions related to US and EU sanctions on the import of cash into Russia - you can buy cash dollars and euros that were deposited at bank cash desks after April 9, 2022. I hope now I have clarified the situation and eliminated the contradictions that existed in your consciousness, but not in reality.


"This is not true, the Central Bank of Russia does not prohibit the sale or purchase of dollars and euros, currently there are no such restrictions in Russia. Restrictions on the import of cash currency exist on the part of the United States and the European Union.
What you are right about is that the dollar and the euro are now considered a scam in Russia." - Do not fill, whose words are these?

Yeah, i.e. dollar and euro are fake currencies. And without them, Russians live happily with a non-fake ruble (  Grin ) But they decided to work and trade with fake currencies, since everyone needs them?! You have excellent logic and the most objective information, and what is very important - absolutely not contradictory Smiley

The import of cash dollars and euros into Russia was banned by Western sanctions, it seems, as early as the beginning of March. But even if you buy cash dollars and euros, the question is why?

Er, why? Even before I went to Europe, dollars and euros and even pound sterling, are more readily accepted in my corner of the world.

I have visited several non-EU, former USSR members in the past few years... and the only "Russian" thing they'll accept there is the language and the script. I did see an app accepting ruble in Kazakhstan though but that was for the Russians to use their card to pay. Russians there changed rubles at moneychangers. These places are way cheaper than Europe, including Ukraine.

First time I've heard Turkey accepting rubles... you're talking merchants and shop owners or? Any of these guys have an online shop accepting ruble?
Now there is a very large surge of Russophobia in Europe, and the European Union may not expect Russian tourists this season. And this is the main purpose for buying cash euros, now it is gone. For the dollar, the forecast is more favorable, for historical reasons, Russians love cash dollars. However, keeping savings in cash dollars is now stupid because of high inflation, and Russians now have nowhere to spend them.

People in Russia do not see Dollar as "worthless", that is just a fake news and a lie to promote the "awesomeness" of Russia and nothing more. You need to realize that poor people of Russia are really poor and I mean like 100-150 bucks is not even the case, they make nearly nothing, because unemployment is a real problem.

So, people do believe the dollar is valuable, I live with bunch of Russians here where I live, people who ran away from Putin’s nation because they hate him, so believe me, Russia is not filled with people who are brainwashed. Sure there are plenty of those as well, but not all of them are like that, some see the reality.

So you're saying that if I go to the Russian subforum and offer to buy 1BTC for 35 000$ I will have no takers as everyone there will not be tempted by this "scam" currency?  Grin
Again, I need to remind you what forum you're posting on!
Perhaps you will find someone who wants to make a deal, because there are a lot of fools and suckers in the world. In general, the Russian economy is making consistent efforts to abandon dollars and euros, switching to settlements in national currencies.

I remember which forum I'm posting on, look at my signature. Unlike you, I do it for free, and you cultivate your Russophobia and spread lies for money.
Fools and s**kers? Who made more than 5k? I am pretty sure who the fool would be in this story and it is not the Russian guy who just made 5+ thousand dollars, the minimum wage is around 120 dollars there by the way, so that 5+ thousand dollars profit means around 50 months worth of minimum wage in a single move.

You may think that euro and dollar is a "scam" if you want, just because you believe that to be the case doesn't mean that Russians as a whole believe the same thing and would say no to 50 months worth of minimum wage to be a bad deal, we here all know that is not the case, and you may be the only person who will deny the facts.

Do I understand correctly that you are now blaming the United States and the European Union for imposing sanctions on the import of cash dollars and euros into Russia, thereby limiting the freedom of Russians to buy them?

No, as always, you understand completely wrong. You know, my keys my coins!
I can deny you at any time to force me to exchange my BTC for ETH!

The US and the EU can deny Russia's central bank to use of their currencies because they don't want to let go of their money for garbage!
On the other hand, the CB of Russia is telling their people to not try to buy USD or EUR because they are not allowed, despite those rubles being their own money!

Think who has the keys in this analogy and understand who the one telling others they are not allowed to use their own money as they wish is here! Besides, this is not the USSR, you can't simply fake everything that happens in that country, I know even guys in telegram channels dedicated to mining are talking about how to get USD on the black market, or use yuans to swap it, so the fiat is there, is just that the government doesn't want you to get it.

For a guy who comes from a country that banned even this forum, I'm certainly amazed that you can't understand basic things while you still keep coming here daily, well, less for actually discussing bitcoin and more for Russian propaganda but I do somehow understand the desperation in some, I've seen it numerous times in the last 4 decades.
