This is ridiculous action from visa and mastercard. Goverment make taking more than 10k $ cash abroad illegal and another strike come from payment systems.

Whats the plan, do they want to trap most talented and qualified specialists from Russia here? And cut off any oppotunity for us to make world better in tech companies across the world? This make relocation extremely hard!

Corporations’ actions are very questionable. No one inside Russia will notice the effect, only those who relocates.

This already provoked mass cash withdrawal by people in Georgia and Armenia. No one benefit from this

If I were them I'd be up on IRC buying crypto at a premium. And that appears to be happening.

Yes, thats what people doing in Turkey for example. In the end of the day it just adds a layer of complexities for those who relocate and does zero pressure on goverment, as the majority of population who stays will not notice anything
