im not 100% sure, but fairly confident swift is just the method used by banks to send money around the world, its old, its outdated, takes forever and costs a bomb but still used because people dont like change.
Not sure they would have issues paying Blizz locally.
Also - Crytocurrency is legit 1000x faster than Swift, it will replace swift in the next 20 years. Once more countries actually look into it and try to remove the negativity that is currently associated with it because all the crazy criminals use it on the dark web!
Russia could move funds anywhere in the world using Crypto without touching Swift⊠#justsaying

Russia has already been excluded from UKâs Sterling exchange. USA threatened to exclude Russia from the Dollar exchange as well, although that hasnât happened yet.
But to dumb it down a bit, once Russia gets excluded from the Dollar, they wonât be able to buy things outside of Russiaâs borders. Most of the worldâs transactions are handled using the Dollar currency, so once that stops then Blizzard wonât be able to pay for Russian servers to stay up, and Blizzard wonât be able to collect revenue from Russia.
Although, thereâs already an alternative payment system, but itâs very small in scale and wonât give access to products from many places. Itâs mostly Russia and China who are interested in it, and those kinds of nations.
how do you post links? Blizz blocks me =/
` put those before and after.
But even just a simple exclusion from SWIFT would mean a heavy delay in anything Russians would pay for internationally. However, the exclusion from the Dollar exchange would isolate them.
oh yes, Russia in for a crap storm economically.
but thats why hes been putting aside cash reserves etc, i literally dont understand how he thinks this will pay out =/
Not exactly, Russia has been moving its reserves away from foreign currencies and invested more billions than you can imagine into Gold. Analysts are saying the Russian currency will stay afloat for several years before it runs into any trouble.
Funny enough, they started reshaping the reserves shortly after they annexed Crimea, when over 40% of their reserves was foreign currency. Now itâs only something like 14%.
Ok then.
Where does that leaves the USA?
With that reasoning im sure that by now, the entire world would have cut relations, diplomatic, comercial, financial with the USA, right?
Time to stop these irritating childish posts!
I have said this multiple times everywhere else too. And these are Cold hearted facts, that make sense, and should to everyone else.
Nato funded by America, and build by America and european countries, that coerced other european countries with lucrative deals, and profit to join them because america needs a strong playing card against Russia.
Never have anyone supported Russia, even though theyâve saved the World countless times.
Ukraine used to be russian too, and putin knows all of the above - He does not want Nato to be on the borders of Russia. That is strengthened by the fact that ukraine is russian soil.
The whole reason this was started was Putin demanding that the president of Ukraine did not join Nato.
That is what it all comes down too,
Putin do not want ukraine to become nato involved but be neutral, All the ukrainian president had to do was not join Nato, and ask for economical help from Russia if thatâs what theyâre fishing for.
Nobody would attack Ukraine if they had Russia as an ally.
The heart colded facts is that Ukraines president caused this, and he is the one making his people suffer, and even telling them to die, these are facts.
Any other person running Russia would do the same, you dont want an enemy on your borders, especially one that is allied with America and run by america, that would be disasterous for the Russian people.
It would mean America can throw them around more, and give them bad deals so the russian civilians will suffer even more than they already do.
American media is great at potraying russia as the bad.
You do realise your entire post is like a copypaste from Russian state television, right?
Delusional, dont comment.
I would tell you to go watch it, but you sure seem to know all theyâve been saying already, so Iâll bet youâve already watched it.
OMG, really?
I donât have to watch videos about common sense, and facts. I havenât watched any russian propaganda since there arenât any. On the other hand there is american, and all they say is what I have written here.
If youâre ignorant enough to believe that its any different then I understand why we cant ever have peace.
Either youâre a troll or an utter ignorant imbecile. Maybe even both. You were already a pos for your comments in a deceased community memberâs thread, so ofcourse people like you are simping for an authoritarian dictator who simply canât get over the fact that the USSR is a thing of the past. Get lost, loser.
American media do really brainwash people it seems.
No, not really. Russia has been planning for this for years, and have been funding the separatist regions as well as supplying them with arms, since the start of that ordeal. This is part of their overall ambitions of trying to expand the circle of influence in Eastern Europe.
Yes its really. Why do you think theyâve been at it for years? Because ukraine has been talking to nato about deals, and america for years. Youâre ignorant.
