According to CoinMeta, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu stated on October 23 that he had ordered preparations for potential international economic and financial sanctions against Israel. However, domestic public opinion believes that his proposals are unable to address the issue of the country's economy being isolated under such sanctions. In an interview with Israel's Channel 10 television station, Netanyahu mentioned that plans have been requested to establish an "alternative economic system" that could "bypass sanctions," and that blockchain and cryptocurrency networks might be utilized to achieve this.
