I'm not sure but it is a thing. Russians have historically valued currencies other than their own.

When I was young I was lucky enough to visit Russia just after the fall of the USSR and we were told to bring US dollars and only exchange them daily.

Over ten days there was about 10% in the difference from start to finish.

Makes sense. It was a wild period.
