German Sterligov: ''Cryptocurrency is like the schmeisser, which Russian partisans wrest from the enemy...''

About cryptocurrency, smart fight against the enemy and the fate of the Anticrisis Settlement and Commodity Centre

Mr Sterligov, you are opening the first official store of bitcoins in Russia. Why have you become interested in cryptocurrency?

For revival of Russian peasantry we need money. The government does not allocate funds for this, but I must say that it does not prevent a revival of the peasantry, which is a big plus. Since money are not allocated, we have to raise funds ourselves, and when we see opportunities for earning significant funds in order to use them in the activities of the Russian peasant assembly, we can't miss them. Precisely such situation has arisen with cryptocurrencies.

After we heard a speech of Vladimir Putin with his positive opinion about the prospects of cryptocurrency, we immediately delved into this topic and opened the first official store of bitcoins (it is an elite store). One of the rules of the store is confidentiality in terms of not only customer names but also the volume of transactions. Moreover, the tax service does not require this information from us because bitcoin transactions are not regulated by the Russian legislation, there is no tax here.

Why ''admission'' is so large? Where is the figure of 60 million (the minimum purchase amount) taken from?

Because we still have little infrastructure, and we are unable to accommodate a large number of people. To reduce the number of people we can only by a transaction level – the higher the level is, the less people apply. But we would love to serve tourists who, for example, go to Antalya, but we have not developed it yet. I think in the near future they will appear and the level will be lowered.

60 million – it is about $1 million or about 250 bitcoins. Large structures usually count financial transactions by millions, so the sake of ease of understanding, we have set the level of $1 million.

Mr Sterligov, isn't there a contradiction that you have expressed a negative opinion about technology and electricity, but at the same time you are engaged in cryptocurrency?

The more we progress in cryptocurrency, the better cars we produce, the more we have money for our activity, the faster the planet will shut off electricity. It is like the schmeisser, which Russian partisans wrest from the enemy, and put ''a bullet'' in enemy's stomach.

Are there any concerns that this project may repeat the fate of the AntiCrisis Settlement and Commodity Centre (ARTC)?

The Anticrisis Settlement and Commodity Centre reached the maximum result that could ever be imagined because what was done by ARTC now is being done by the leaders of the states: settlement without use of the dollar (what was offered and practiced by ARTC), conversion using gold. BRICS countries are now working according to these principles, our patterns, an exchange house has already been opened in Chinese Kunming, the second exchange is being opened in Hong Kong. What ARTC has done is about 10 times more than we expected when it was opened.

The fact that in Russia we were not given a license for this activity is explained by the fact that the country at that time was a colony, which had no right for its vote. For this reason, the FFMS (the Federal Financial Markets Service) did not give us a chance to engage in the international reserve settlement system – this right was left for England and the United States. And now Vladimir Putin is fighting for the sovereignty of the country, and what was impossible a few years ago now is becoming possible, and we now, in fact, continue this activity. I think ARTC is a very good example of how popular the mechanisms are that are being implemented now in cryptocurrencies.

Today we have sixteen stores: five in Moscow and in eleven regions —Voronezh, Krasnodar, Saint Petersburg, Kirov, Perm

About stores of German Sterligov, ''wrong'' cheese of Oleg Sirota and a store-bought poison

In addition to this you have a chain of stores, right?

It is mainly my children who deal with the stores. Sergiy is chief in this issue — he is engaged in developing a new chain of high-end segment of natural food in order people who grow not chemical poison but real food had a distribution opportunity — I'm talking about peasants who do not poison their fields and their cattle. The chain is the place where they can take their expensive products produced on their peasant farms. People who make real food did not have such opportunity before. They had to sell where other farmers and agricultural holdings in general sold – in the common stock of poison. Now the peasants who do not sell their conscience for additional benefits have an alternative — our little chain.

You are telling that your chain is the market for ''bona fide peasants''. How many of those are there who refuses to use modern technology in favour of natural production?

Very little! There are not enough products even for our chain. We have no enough bread, we have grain (the problem have already been solved), but there is no buckwheat, there very not enough milk milked by hand, not drugged-up cows are hard to find. Real cheese is a monstrous deficit, boiled salt are very few. In general, there is no shortage of customers but the lack of food.

You have mentioned the lack of cheese, but what about the cheese factory of your son-in-law Oleg Sirota? Isn't his product represented on your shelves?

Unfortunately, we do not sell products of Oleg because they have no-go factor — they allow in their production milk milked by machines. Now Oleg is improving this situation, as far as I know, but we are not realizing his products yet.

We do not sell products made from milk milked by machines because the apparatus when milking a cow inevitably gets out blood, what is worse, therefore it is unacceptable. Only hand milking.

About the world power of perverts and the persecution of Putin

You do not allow members of LGBT community in your stores. These signs that ''certain citizens'' are not admitted – is it your fundamental solution, or is it a subtle marketing move?

We did not open shops and restaurants in Moscow for a long time because we didn't want to serve f*****s. Then we decided that we will put signs and forbid the entry for them. Then we could work safely and be clean before the Lord and before the people that we do not serve f*****s. It's not a PR move.

Of course, we lost the most rich clientele because in the world today (I stress it, that in the world, not in the country) there is the power of f*****s and perverts. Perverts are really world government, and therefore in the colonies the colonial authorities assure us publicly that they are for protection of pederasty, LGBT, freedom of gays, and so on. This is because in the metropolis there rule f*****s, and in the colonies they also try to do what they support.

What do you think about the fact that in Russia there is a quite rigid rejection of LGBT people?

We, of course, are in a better situation, because Putin is not a f****t. It is generally a huge criterion. And Trump is also not a f****t, and in America the current situation is changing. They have got out from the power of the world f*****s. This explains the persecution of Putin, sanctions and so on. He doesn't want to jig to their tune.

Our clients are smart people. Not rich or poor — they are smart. Fools buy poison for their children, poison them like rats, but smart people come and buy these products

When they say that we have the ''fifth column''… The ''fifth column'' are people appointed from London, and Vladimir Putin has no resources yet to deal with them all. This is a very serious struggle on a world scale. I wish with all my heart that Putin not only remained at the power but also become a real and full power in Russia.
