Anonymous, the famous hacker organization, is rumored to be offering Russian soldiers Bitcoin payments to donate their tanks. Hackers have offered over $52,000 in BTC for each combat vehicle donated.
Anonymous: BTC in exchange for a tank
The Ukrainian side is trying to stop the Russian invasion not only by weapons and direct clashes, but also by a digital strike. A few days ago, Mykhailo Fedorov – Ukraine’s deputy prime minister – announced that the government would create an IT army. The politician said, “We need digital talent. There will be tasks for everyone. We are continuing the fight on the cyber front.”
The international hacker group Anonymous has also carried out several cyber-attacks against Russia. In just two days, the organization violated over 300 Russian targets, collecting over 1 billion rubles (about $10 million).
Anonymous asks for a white flag
Those looking to trade a tank for cryptocurrencies must wave a white flag and use the word “million” for the hacker group to recognize them.
Anonymous said, “Russian soldiers who want to live with their families, children, not die, the global Anonymous community has raised RUB 1,225,043 in BTC to help you.”
Anonymous declared war on Vladimir Putin in late February.
