According to reports from Ukrainian media, the notorious hacker group Anonymous is offering US$52,000 in Bitcoin for every Russian tank surrendered to them.
Russian troops were advised by Anonymous to surrender with a white flag and use the password ‘million’ to show that they accept the terms. The Ministry of Defence of Ukraine has also reportedly said that it will pardon those who surrender.
“Russian soldiers, everyone who wants to live with their families, children, and not die, the Anonymous global community has collected RUB 1,225,043 in bitcoin to help you.”

It seems that Ukrainian farmers have taken anonymous up on their offer, stealing a tank from Russian soldiers!
Anonymous vs Russia
Anonymous declared war against Vladimir Putin after news of the invasion, promising “unprecedented cyber-attacks from all corners of the world”.
Only two days after declaring cyber-war, they managed to collect over US$10 million from taking down 300 targets including banks, news outlets and government agencies. These funds will be used to support their new offer.
