I think they're aware of how it works. Currency speculation is not complicated or new. The thing is, why would you expect the ruble to be a better investment than another currency? Why would you expect it to bounce back?

It's a Wall Streets Bets thing because it's very stupid gambling based on very poor logic. If you're going to start speculating in currency, the ruble is probably not where you want to start right now.

Ha, and more on the same point russia just closed the ruble market. So no more trading in rubles and no more ruble values being released.

Should invest in Rands.
