Meduza, one of Russia’s leading independent news organizations, called for donations in fiat, bitcoin (BTC, -2.2%), ether (ETH, +0.94%) and BNB after Russian authorities labeled it a “foreign agent” last week.
The label, basically marking Meduza as an “enemy of the state,” can hurt its ability to contact sources and report news, the team said in a statement.
“They are trying to kill Meduza,” the team said in another editorial statement. “The Ministry of Justice deemed us a ‘foreign agent.’ As a result, we lost our advertisers. It means that our funds are running out. Right now.”
