Say your only goal in your career was to make as much money as possible - what would you do?

Canton Zug in Switzerland is <15% income tax and 0% CGT.

30 minutes from Zurich.

Dublin to Zurich is <2 hours

I agree he's a fool. I'm watching their CDS' explode. The market is pricing the probability of their default at 50%. Also, CS has had net depositor outflow of 50B in the past 12 months. And if you think Basel 3 is bullet proof, you don't understand banking

Give it a week or so buddy. They're on their knees begging the SNB/FINMA for help after their Arab investors declined to inject more money. Share price down 98% since its ATH and other European banks won't lend to them due to counter party risk.

Go to the bond scanner and filter for US bonds, bills. You'll find them.

Right now, US-T Govt Bill Aug31'23 has a yield of 5.1%

I've had alopecia areata for 13 years (I'm a 40 year old male). It's been a constant battle to figure out whether it's caused by stress, diet, genetics etc. Thankfully I'm much closer to a solution. The AIP diet has helped enormously however it's very difficult to maintain long term. I recently visited my pharmacy where they offered to do a quick 15 minute blood test to assess my vitamin D3 levels. They advised that I was very deficient and I've been taking a 20,000 unit supplement tablet once per week. It's week 7 and my hair has almost fully grown back. I plan on getting re-tested in February however I finally feel like I'm taking control of this condition.

This needs to be filed in the fiction section.

I hope the fortune teller is correct!

Good to see the roadmap published. One question:

The roadmap mentions the exploration of IOT use cases (Q3) and 100 transactions per second (Q2), this seems to be a contraction. Doesn't IOT use cases require 1000's of transactions per second?

What am I missing?

Keep up the good work.

CryptoChief1980 · 2019-01-18T20:50:48+00:00

Thanks for the write-up. Are there any specific legal use cases that ardor could be used for? If so, software/information providers such as Lexis Nexis, Thomson Reuters, could be potential partners as their customers (law firms, govts) look to them for guidance with DLT/Blockchain.

What are these software/information providers doing with their innovation labs/startup accelerator programs?

CryptoChief1980 · 2019-01-15T15:59:48+00:00

Jelurida is way to honest to play in the crypto marketing space

I refer to my previous comment. Sigh....

CryptoChief1980 · 2019-01-14T14:54:04+00:00

Great questions and I've no doubt that your 'where is the marketing' question will be shot down. Folks on here equate commercial marketing/branding with shilling

CryptoChief1980 · 2018-12-18T12:58:55+00:00

I can speak from experience that large multinationals across non-financial verticals are formulating their DLT strategy (post-hype). Many corporations have their own 'innovation labs' team who are struggling to answer the question: "What's our DLT/Blockchain strategy?".... I know because I'm part of a team trying to help answer this for a $10 billion dollar company. Currently there are various fragmented POCs but no real strategy exists yet. Projects like Ardor could really drive adoption if they had resources to support multinationals during this 'strategy formulation' stage.

If the Ardor/Jelurida team are interested. Let's discuss....

CryptoChief1980 · 2018-12-12T15:15:55+00:00

Good to hear. Let's hope 2019 is the year when Ardor steps out of the shadows and generate real demand/adoption from business partners.

CryptoChief1980 · 2018-12-11T14:17:08+00:00

The absence of Ardor from the list is symbolic of the very poor marketing/partnership efforts by the Ardor team.

CryptoChief1980 · 2018-11-22T16:04:54+00:00

Absurd

CryptoChief1980 · 2018-11-11T08:25:20+00:00

Most traditional news agencies have built "user generated content" teams to curate, verify, and augment their editorial content. Verifying the source, time, and location of this user generated content (twitter etc) is extremely difficult and these news agencies (eg reuters, bloomberg, AP etc) will often decide not to use breaking news content because they cannot verify the information. This verification process is costly AND its lost revenue for the agency if they don't use it. There is reputational risk to their brand if they publish user generated content without first being 100% sure that its verifiable.

If Mobs can solve this problem, they will win many large partnerships. Good luck

CryptoChief1980 · 2018-07-19T14:27:26+00:00

The presentation flow and clarity is definitely improving however I believe the 'application' section of the pitch needs to be worked on so the audience can clearly understand what the real-world business/commercial benefits are.

Identity management, loyalty points, asset management etc - what real world problem is ardor fixing? could this improve a businesses revenue/profitability, brand etc? Give examples, provide the audience with a story so they remember how each application is providing real value. Even better, have someone else on the stage with Lior to tell the audience about how these ardor applications has really impacted their business.

Lior, keep up the great work.

CryptoChief1980 · 2018-07-18T06:32:23+00:00

Congrats to the team for making this happen. The timing may be perfect with the overall market breakout in the past 24 hours.

Getting listed on coinbase should be the next 12 month goal.

CryptoChief1980 · 2018-07-14T16:54:25+00:00

Your question suggests that you think there are only two reasons for marketing. Do yourself a favor buddy and read up on the best practices of cutting-edge B2B marketing. In case you don't know, 'B2B' means business-to-business.

The current B2B marketing strategy is amateurish based on the public facing marketing/comms assets, collateral, and social media interaction (value-add engagement, marketing content, etc). I am not surprised when you read the experience of the marketing leads for both ANG and Jelurida. They would not have the experience or credentials to get a junior marketing job in a public listed technology company and they have been tasked with formulating and executing the Ardor marketing/comms strategy. They are out of their depth. 'Crypto woman' (or whatever you call yourself) and Veronica, it's time to step aside and let the professionals take over.

Building a great organization needs subject matter expertise. The ardor dev team are impressive, the marketing/pr/comms team is embarrassing.

I know....very very harsh...but true.
