Bitcoin is the peaceful protest: CZ Binance

However, some individuals who believe in the peaceful protest were captured by passerby's cameras standing with posters saying that Bitcoin can change the current situation for the better.
Kraken CEO says the riots are putting his friend’s life at risk
The head and co-founder of Kraken, Jesse Powell, has tweeted that a friend of his has had to postpone a vital surgical operation because of the riots. The person is deathly ill, Powell tweets.
The disorder in the streets has prevented the person from making it on time to organ transplantation which he has been waiting on for a long time.
Now, the organ has been wasted and he has to wait for another one to appear.
