Milonov predicted the collapse of Bitcoin and called on Russians to breed cows.
State Duma Deputy Vitaly Milonov urged Russians to prepare for the collapse of Bitcoin by using livestock. The parliamentarian is confident that digital assets will collapse, and that cows will be the best insurance against the financial apocalypse.
“It'll all collapse, all your digital bitcoins, it'll all end, and people will lose enormous fortunes,” Milonov said on the radio station “Moscow Speaks.” He predicted that investors would “throw themselves out of the windows of a Moscow City tower,” while cow owners would be saved by “milk and cottage cheese.”
Well, the deputy is clearly not one to voluntarily abandon technology. For him, the digital economy is a temporary fad that will inevitably end in a mass exodus of disillusioned traders from the high-rise business centers. Romantic, isn't it?
Milonov himself, incidentally, lives outside the city and planned to keep a pet reindeer. He even chose a candidate in the Murmansk region and christened him Rudolf. But the authorities banned this livestock experiment. “They said you can't just keep a reindeer in your house,” the parliamentarian complained. Apparently, sanitary regulations are still more effective than blockchain regulations.
But there are no problems with chickens and turkeys. “It's right for everyone to have chickens and turkeys running around and laying eggs on their property,” the deputy concluded. It's a kind of Russian-style agrarian survival: while you're buying bitcoins, your neighbor is raising eggs. Who among you is prepared for economic collapse? The answer is obvious.
But Milonov's philosophy doesn't end there. He recently called buyers of 500 million ruble apartments “idiots” while strolling along the Moskva River and examining local new developments. “They look like scary little boxes,” he said of premium real estate.
“Are you idiots? God will punish you for buying an apartment for 500 million,” the deputy fumed. He sees alternative uses for that kind of money as building homes for children, buying bicycles, and butterfly nets. “And they will be normal children, developing normally,” Milonov explained his concept of proper child rearing.
But if children are “stuffed into a $500 million box,” divine retribution is inevitable. It turns out that luxury real estate is not only an economically irrational decision, but also a spiritual crime.
The deputy's logic is ingeniously simple: instead of investing in digital assets and luxury housing, it's better to invest in pets and traditional family values. Bitcoin will collapse, luxury apartments are a sin, and a cow and chickens are true wealth.
Milonov offers Russians a kind of new feudal way of life: a subsistence economy as a response to the challenges of the digital economy. Perhaps this is the much-talked-about “special path.”
