That the biggest crook in Russia (and that's really saying something) says he trusts it...
Really means something.
Every business, every government, every individual, every bank... is looking for perfect capital that cannot be confiscated, diluted, or censored. Capital generated as a result of the expenditure of energy (something which does not apply to 99.99% of crypto)
Bitcoin like other tools - fire, electricity, math, gunpowder - is neutral and neutral tools are available to all. Everyone uses fire, electricity, math, and gunpowder... because they are better and everyone will use Bitcoin (imo) because it is the best digital capital far above the competition.

Emperor of one of the most industrious and resource rich nations on the planet, that's exactly the kind of endorsement we want.

nah, on the contrary:
“But This Is Different! Putin Is Evil!” Sure, whatever. Bitcoin doesn’t care. All monies are for enemies, and the more despicable the enemy, the greater the proof of bitcoin’s viability.
