Comrades! Observe with utmost scrutiny the latest manoeuvres of the financial oligarchy. We are told by the heralds of the banking class—specifically one Mr. Gamzaev of the 'Sravni' establishment—that the traditional bank card is becoming an obsolete relic. They speak of 'transformation' and 'seamless settlements,' but let us peel back this velvet curtain of rhetoric to reveal the cold, hard truth of Capital.

What the bourgeoisie calls 'diversification,' we must recognise as a sophisticated expansion of their grip upon the pockets of the proletariat. They propose a future where our very biological essence—through a 'Unified Biometric System'—and invisible signals like 'Bluetooth Low Energy' become the keys to our meager earnings. They wish to replace the plastic card not to liberate the worker, but to ensure that no penny escapes the watchful eye of the Monopolies!

Mark the dates, for the bureaucracy is already sharpening its quill: by September 2026, a 'Unified Register' shall be established, and by 2027, they dare to impose a limit of twenty cards per person. Do these usurers truly care for our convenience, or are they merely refining the ledger of our indebtedness?

And now, behold the most audacious gamble of all! The Central Bank, in its infinite arrogance, opens the gates to the phantom world of 'cryptocurrencies'—Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Tether USDT. They invite the common man to speculate in these digital illusions, yet they maintain a strict leash, limiting the 'unqualified investor' to a mere 300,000 rubles per annum through licensed intermediaries.

This is nothing more than a new theatre of exploitation. Whether through a QR-code, a digital ruble, or a licensed token, the objective remains unchanged: the consolidation of wealth in the hands of the few and the continued subjugation of the labouring classes under the yoke of financial speculation. We must ask ourselves: does the method of payment change the nature of the theft? It does not! The chains may be made of digital code rather than iron, but they remain chains nonetheless.
