Idk, I went there a couple of times, I just love the people, the country. It’s a trip back in time. So it was my “random pick” for an exit node. And now I can read rt.com, sail the high seas, open any libgen or Anna's Archive. They're not part of the EU, seem far away from it (no euro, guarded borders, ditched their communist dictator who completely isolated the country ~40 years ago). Perhaps they are less easily coerced into censoring as practiced by countries primarily governed based on GDP and what the big corps want (although everybody seems to smoke everywhere so they could use some of that EU influence).
Until 2018 the formulation used in the United States contained lead(II) acetate. Because lead acetate was banned in cosmetics in Canada and the European Union, the formulations sold there did not contain it.
Of course my awareness isn't what decides if a firm is a major one, and I did refer to crypto firms in general.
In any case, apparently these guys are a big deal and I hadn't heard of them. Maybe it's European bias, and I'm not a crypto expert or anything, just interested.
