If you've had the unfortunate experience of viewing my horribly antiquated political views, I apologize. I am a far different person than I was in 2016, so bear with me.

Let me add to what others have said: this is an English-speaking forum, for the most part. Linking articles in Russian will do nothing to help you make your point. Find translations or English versions or stop posting. Thank you.

firstly, I still remind you of Google translator, and secondly, here is the translation

The American cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase was founded in 2012. Bitcoin, Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies are traded on the Coinbase platform. The company operates in more than 100 countries. The staff is more than 2 thousand employees.

I saw this earlier today. My immediate thoughts were something along the lines of confused swearing. I get the resistance aspect, I do, but there HAS to be a better way to fight than throwing incendiaries from an enclosed space, then driving in front of the targeted vehicle.

There definitely is but it will also show Russian soldiers the sheer scale of the resistance they can expect. I mean Ukrainian farmers are towing Russian vehicles away from them for crying out loud.
