  • Russia has authorized Bitcoin for international payments, aiming to counter Western sanctions and enhance foreign trade transactions.

The article from MSN discusses Russian President Vladimir Putin's endorsement of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as part of Russia's strategy to expand its global financial influence.
