Suave shares that The Ukraine Rescue Mission is funding and doing incredible life saving work and 100% of donations there are being used to evacuate people from Ukraine and provide essential assistance to refugees.

"Mr. Harry Adjmi and the amazing members of the Sephardic Community spearheaded this fund and aside from the huge financial support and various resources they are providing, I have been in touch with Harry and his team from the beginning of this nightmare and they continuously make it possible for me to provide the needs of so many individuals and families and I want to thank them from the bottom of my heart. They have done literally life saving incredible work. If you can, please make a donation to them here."

Isn't the point of crypto that it's impervious to politics and location?

Officially. But everything is traceable. Same way law enforcement can sometimes reclaim stolen money stored in crypto.

Source? I can't find it reported anywhere.

If true, this is a significantly greater loss to Russia. He far outranks the other general killed.
You might be thinking of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valery_Gerasimov
you can be sure he's no where near the front and if he's dead it's by Putins own hand

You're right. I was trying to understand why someone of that rank was on the battlefield.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

I don't know what it means or how it's technically done, but it sounds pretty drastic. Wonder how they'll spin that to their citizens - the evil West cut the undersea cables?

What short-/long-term consequences does Russia face when they default?

+1000. I can't stand when people make the argument about Ukraine and ww2.  It's 80 years since then and they have a Jewish president. Obviously they aren't the same as then...

To add to the discussion:

While your Hashkafa and worldview might guide you to not have sympathies for, or to be happy in the downfall of Ukraine, you need to keep in mind that while they might be getting what (in your eyes) they deserve, at the same time Russia (who holds their own when it comes to anti-semitism) is being empowered by this war, which is certainly not something to be happy or even passive about.
