And other countries have freedom to scoff at that or even sanction trade with it (gasp, the horror!). Freedom works both ways, you know.
A fitting quote for the moment:
"Pacifism is objectively pro-fascist. This is elementary common sense. If you hamper the war effort of one side, you automatically help out that of the other." (c) George Orwell
Also regarding India and tokens, sure they are officially banned. But they are still a key link a in trade chain, that' why I mentioned Dubai and its neighbors. They act as a laundromat and a tumbler, obscuring financial flows. And one part of the Russia-India trade or Russia-Iran trade or even Russia-China trade involves tethers (USDT), without which exchanging rubles to rupee or to yuan directly would be highly problematic and risky. Tokens mitigate some of the risk by hiding financial flows through multiple jurisdictions.

America and Europe invaded other counties for no valid reasons which means they are the fascist nations.
Is not America buying Russian Uranium and fertilizers is not helping Russian economy?.
Is not Europe buying Russian gas and oil is not helping Russian economy?
btw India never ever traded with crypto. bought oil under price cap which was set by the west.
You want us(Indians) and Chinese to go to war. We stubbornly refuse to.
Both countries, have now have growing economies with stable politics, and social direction. Things can only get better from here, and will.
Whatever issues exist, we resolve by talking. Often, a few give and take moves are needed, which are mostly ok. Because way bigger good things await these both nations. And we want them.
Either way there is no theatre. The Himalayas make a large wall and ensure no big border conflict can even happen. Even through missiles. The remainder is irrelevant, and both parties are more than happy to just keep talking until some agreement is in place, which even without isn't much of an issue with regards to economy, resources or anything.
As someone who has been living in Asia for decades (including in several of China's neighbouring countries), thank you for this even-handed take. It aligns very well with my own experience of how people living in these regions outside of the Western media bubble generally think about China.
Thank you for voicing a different tone than the seemingly prevalent obscene warmongering. I believe people of good will are generally less comfortable speaking out and are therefore underrepresented, including here on HN.
A lot of people in tech are cheering for tech crash without knowing the consequences. Next crash will bring recession which lasts until the end of Trump administration given that he will never listen to experts. Most engineers will loose jobs and will replaced by new grads when the economy recovers.
Tech industry keeps this economy going. Everyone should thank all those AI investments
It’s wild watching the supposedly most tech savvy place on the internet devolve into gnashing of teeth and wailing over development and progress. Hacker News? More like Grognard Complaints
I've seen it happen numerous times. Everyone cheers the idea of "we need a crash, everything is overvalued" and then when it happens "the billionaires are doing this to us". It's just words. These are just the barnacles of society who are along for the ride.
Copy HN UI as its. no one cares.
Good luck
