I recently found out it's not SAP native software - rather it's USA based company/product that was acquired by SAP.
Re:Kosovo bans cryptocurrency mining to save electricity on Wednesday January 05, 2022 @08:32AM (#29808648)
Allegedly, there are tons of money from the North Kosovo/South Serbia generated from crypto flowing into the investments in Belgrade. For example, here's the article of the policeman that was acquitted for not responding to the calls in the nights when the government organised tearing down barracks by using the illegal forces. This policeman then had his second appartment building (not House) washed and entered in the system.

This is doing a terrible damage to the society. It's tearing it apart to two layers, one extremely rich and openly criminal, and the other poor one. It's like if I'm watching Narcos. Crypto is not an issue, the corrupted government is. It would be the same if they got their money from drugs or weapons.
