Lukashenko explained the blocking of cryptocurrency exchanges in Belarus.
"I will honestly tell you, I myself went in to see what kind of nonsense it was. They tell me: “Alexander Grigoryevich, this is the future of the economy.” So I tried it. I bought this... what is it called... altcoin. I thought I would hold it for a couple of hours. And it, the bastard, fell by thirty percent!
Then these young people say: “Go to futures, you can make money there.” I went. I entered, pressed the button, and I was just liquidated! I sit, looking at this loss, like at a hole in the state budget, and think: who even came up with this? This is not a market, this is a casino without a roulette!" — Lukashenko
