The Art of Prediction

So HDI essentially makes sense I think. It’s just that it calculates also years of schooling where social-democratic European countries obviously win while having an averaged economy sucking on previous wealth.

The low prices you have here are represented by the lack of developed products and services which EU, developed Asian countries and the US have. Yes you pay less, but also you have less access to development.

And also the thing is Georgia also beneficial in some things, I feel this low gdp and life expectancy myself. There are no necessary medical products for me. It feels like an underdeveloped country.

So I guess my first corporation will be based in Singapore. It just makes the most sense especially considering that I provide financial services in my products.

I previously said that if Georgia is going to join EU, I am going to move to Hong Kong and after I read a bit more information, I understood that actually for building digital startups Singapore might be actually the best. The reason is that Hong Kong is dying. The communist party of China is slowly killing it and those who want to use Asian market with free-market capitalist systems choose Hong Kong. And those who want to use advantages of both Asia (incl. China) and the US, usually select Singapore already although supply chains would be easier through Hong Kong. Yet it seems choosing Georgia for a big enterprise feels dangerous. They don’t have strong banking, don’t have any venture capital, don’t have a stable business reputation. And political populism together with EU are big risks to ruin the current expat benefits. I already said previously why not UAE, but besides that they also have a gray business and banking reputation, while Singapore is the same tier like Germany or the US. So while I develop my product, until I have millions of income each month it seems just easier to stay in Georgia. But once I have a need to build a strong corporation supporting my crypto products, Singapore currently feels the best. Yet obviously a long term goal to move to the US to build my space company in the future still is there because the US benefits there are simply unmatched. The thing I notice also, I feel like the world is currently divided between certain advantages which make a certain class of people beneficiaries. Europe is the best for average or poor people with a strong welfare support. Yes you can get a good education there with a good job, but once you go higher it’s limiting. Certain Near Eastern countries like UAE or Georgia are the best examples for expats and average businesses. They give you extremely low taxes, easy access, but usually lacking certain advantages what big corporations need. Certain South-east nations like Singapore and Hong Kong give something what big corporations would need. Business reputation, great banking, venture capital, easy access to both Eastern and Western markets, yet quite low taxes. The US is a pinnacle of innovation. If you want to build something cardinally new what will define the future infrastructure like I want to build a quantum space engine in the future, there is no better place than the US. Latin American countries with a center in Brazil are chaotic and corrupted enough that allow to actual perform political experiments building a some kind of sovereign corporation, and some already try to realise this there. While Africa is famous for such an unstable environment that many PMCs thrive there. So each this zone is kinda like an epicentre of power for certain classes of power. And it makes sense to live through everywhere to actually benefit from it.

One Greek philosopher once said that art starts degrading when commercialised. And the games is the maximal example of this thesis. GTA 6 cost was a BILLION dollars, thousands of people and no real artists who made great GTAs previously, only calculating safe design. Yet real artists simply because they can allow costs singlehandedly create masterpieces, that’s why indie-gaming still flourishes. The thing is the lesson I think everyone should take, it’s not that you can’t create a AAA game masterpiece, it’s not that you shouldn’t spend a billion on a game, it’s more that you should find real talented artists first and cooperate with them to create masterpieces which already will be evaluated by the audience like Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa. If you create games hiring average people with average safe design choices, you are going to fail because you commercialised art.

Yeah, I mean of course the game is profitable because pre-orderers already brought billions to Rockstar, but it’s something like Far Cry 6, the same shitty feeling…

As always pre-orderers sucked BIG…

That feeling that a buggy Cyberpunk felt much better than GTA 6 an extended look…

By we I mean $ASTRE holders as profits will be distributed directly to holders from the start to start an actual capital building. There is no so much need in more active spending than my life costs and 200$ on AI, so first money flow will pump it big I suppose.

I will start marketing at 1.0.0. Although 0.3.0 will be freely available for public, I see low sense to start marketing when I understand that we need and can do more of active feature development. So anyways we have some way to go, but it’s going to be slow gradual rise with a big hype on 1.0.0 I suppose.

Btw considering my progress, it feels like only FOMO has really strong unique features which I myself planned to implement. Yet it’s limited. Only AMM on several popular chains. I also actually found out that one secret feature is already realised in one trading bot, but again certain things are limited and my non-custodiality just destroys it. In the end, I think we have real chances to come to the fomo/gmgn/axiom league with a next 0.3.0 update, while to actually overcome everyone we would need several future updates, maybe even in 0.4.0, we will see.

I need to develop faster 👀

Why it is scary to develop games. While being a game develop by education and experience in general, I am still not fully inclined to develop games full-time, or it would be better said - any type of game. I love games from Paradox Interactive. It’s a very successful game company, they release new successful game titles each time, yet the audience playing those games is very niche. Recently they announced an actually very cool game idea Afterworld about post-apocalyptic politics which I myself even had. But the studio developing it took 5 years to finish it, for a very niche audience. So the game director literally spent 5 years of his life to earn not that much (for sure this game will be profitable, but not that much that it asked for 5 years), making him extremely inefficient in this sense. And that is the problem. Game developers rarely become billionaires because they spend time on such inefficient things. The competition is ready to spend many years to bring not that much profit and logically we can say - why people didn’t wait to develop big ideas with AI strongly reducing time spent? That’s a zeal to develop only games, only their dream virtual worlds what makes the whole game development scene quite a cult-like (overworking, burn outs, you heard these news for sure). It’s something what I don’t want to spend my life on. Yes, I enjoy creating games and partly realise it in my terminal, but besides it I enjoy creating innovations overall and not ready to become inefficient for cult-like practices.

Actually I think not many people get it how less other chains have comparing to TON with much bigger volume. And the same Storm suffers from it. It has one of the lowest volumes right now, yet competitors with higher volume are mainly much worse. The thing is it's a real underevaluation and if you really check all the crypto market like i did (mainly for my product) you will get what i mean.

With the start of the bull market, I will wait until Storm V3 is released, they launched marketing and will analyse if there are better opportunities elsewhere. I have big hopes on Storm, but it’s the fact that while I was waiting on them I missed many opportunities and don’t want to miss them again.

lol one guy in a lift asked if I am doing sports and noticed my large build

It’s actually 3-in-1 product already. It’s a trading terminal, it’s a wallet and it’s a trading bot. Some wallet features are so good, that it might be that the wallet could succeed even independently of trading instruments.
