Projects in Bahrain, Kazakhstan, Lichtenstein, Switzerland and a lot of work on Universa Blockchain core. :)

Wrote an article in Forbes about the sanity of investing in blockchain in 2018

And here is the program made by NTV

30/06 Monaco/Nice

CryptoMobile Wallet // Planning Stage

Negotiating with prospective partner, a leader in the industry, to create a multi-currency mobile crypto wallet. Agreed to select all the components needed for the joint project launch in July-August. The partner has strong competencies in mobile applications, we have strong competencies in blockchain technology; we now need another partner with strong competencies in mobile banking to start.

It is good that this part of the world has a lot of sunlight and even a relatively warm sea — for the first time this year I was able to take a swim, without disrupting my negotiations with the partners. Given the rhythm of life and the public in Monaco, I didn’t have to leave the café to meet Tresor founder and representatives from several crypto funds. I persuaded them to monitor our success. I even told one to move from ____ (blockchain not named) to Universa MainNet.

Universa and Tresor

1/07 San Remo

Brainstorming the future of smart contracts

In San Remo, the team and me had a brainstorm on the formats of our smart contracts to be applied to different areas. We also had a discussion on how we could motivate large clients to use public blockchain and improve the demand for tokens for private network clients.

The goal is obvious — any sale of Universa services creates demand for tokens for the network to handle transactions, regardless of whether the customer chooses public or private blockchain.
