The Russians I’ve run into in Argentina, Indonesia, Thailand , Philippines, Japan, China, HK and other Asian countries all have crypto cards and use crypto very candidly. They also are filling up and creating demand for crypto services in these areas. I’ve seen Facebook posts and instagram pages marketing Russian crypto services and investment - real estate, business and the vector of payment transfer is crypto and second local bank accounts in these countries.
The exodus is very real, and documented via social media so vividly. You can even go to the local social media pages (e.g. Thais, Indonesians, Argentinian social media pages / language ) and get local perspective and demeanor vs the Russian and Russian adjunct countries. It’s so interesting that English has become a neutral language for business and marketing but all the real “work” is done in either or language.
