Ευχές από τη “We Greece”

Αγαπητά μέλη, ανεξάρτητοι συνεργάτες & συμβεβλημένες επιχειρήσεις,

Στο τέλος μιας τόσο δύσκολης χρονιάς για όλους θα ήθελα να απευθυνθώ στον κάθε έναν από εσάς – πρώτα από όλα για να σας ευχαριστήσω για την εμπιστοσύνη που μας δείχνετε.

Η εμπιστοσύνη σας μας δίνει δύναμη στις συνθήκες που αντιμετωπίζουμε & μας κάνει να αισθανόμαστε ακόμη μεγαλύτερη την ευθύνη να φανούμε αντάξιοι & να ανταποκριθούμε στις προσδοκίες σας από την συνεργασία μας.

Το 2020 ζήσαμε όσα δεν φανταζόμασταν ποτέ ότι θα συμβούν. Μια απειλή ζωής για όλους & για τον καθένα μας, τις μεγάλες ανθρώπινες απώλειες, το “πάγωμα” της συμβατικής οικονομίας αλλά ταυτόχρονα & την “έκρηξη” της ψηφιακής οικονομίας σε ολόκληρο τον πλανήτη.

Ζήσαμε τον περιορισμό της κοινωνικής & οικονομικής ζωής, με μακρά διάρκεια και συχνά μέσω ασφυκτικής έντασης. Δεν είχαμε, όμως, άλλη επιλογή… Ακόμα & σήμερα ο κίνδυνος δεν έχει περάσει και πλήθος συνανθρώπων μας προσβάλλεται από τον Covid-19 & δοκιμάζεται σκληρά.

Οι προοπτικές όμως είναι καλύτερες καθώς όλα δείχνουν ότι η ανθρωπότητα σύντομα θα αποκτήσει ένα αποτελεσματικό όπλο – που μπορεί να κάνει την σημερινή τραγωδία, να είναι αύριο, μια ζοφερή ανάμνηση & μόνο.

Μέσω αυτών των ιδιαίτερων συνθηκών η ομάδα της “We Greece” έδωσε για ακόμα μία φορά τον καλύτερο της εαυτό για να σταθεί δίπλα στην Κοινότητα της.

Δώσαμε προτεραιότητα στο να υποστηρίξουμε τις υπάρχουσες εταιρικές μας δομές, να αυξήσουμε τον κύκλο εργασιών μας, να διευρύνουμε την βάση των πελατών μας, να συνάψουμε νέες στρατηγικές συνεργασίες, να επεκτείνουμε το δίκτυο των συμβεβλημένων μας επιχειρήσεων & να διατηρήσουμε την υποστήριξη των πελατών μας στα μέγιστα δυνατά standards ποιότητας. Σε κάποιους τομείς εξ’αυτών επιτύχαμε & σε κάποιους άλλους θέσαμε ακόμα υψηλότερους στόχους.

Παράλληλα & καθ’όλη την διάρκεια του 2020 προσπαθήσαμε να παρέχουμε το σύνολο των υπηρεσιών μας χωρίς την ύπαρξη φυσικής παρουσίας με την χρήση της ψηφιακής τεχνολογίας. Διοργανώθηκαν δεκάδες Live Webinars με την παρουσία εκατοντάδων συμμετεχόντων από όλη την Ελλάδα & το εξωτερικό.

Η νέα χρονιά που ξεκινά φέρνει μαζί της την βάσιμη ελπίδα για το καλύτερο. Θέλω να σας διαβεβαιώσω πως η “We Greece” θα είναι δίπλα σας για να βοηθήσει τόσο εσάς όσο & τις δικές σας συστάσεις να πάρετε τα μέγιστα οφέλη από τον κόσμο των ψηφιακών νομισμάτων & να πλοηγείστε με ασφάλεια μέσα σε αυτόν.

Για κάθε σκέψη, σχέδιο ή επιθυμία σας μην διστάσετε να απευθυνθείτε στην ομάδα της “We Greece” – είμαστε εδώ οποιαδήποτε στιγμή!

Σε αυτή την τόσο διαφορετική εορταστική περίοδο εύχομαι σε εσάς, τις οικογένειες & τα αγαπημένα σας πρόσωπα να έχετε υγεία & δύναμη ώστε να αφήσουμε γρήγορα πίσω μας την εμπειρία του 2020 & να έχουμε όλοι μας ένα πιο αισιόδοξο & πιο δημιουργικό 2021!

Με εκτίμηση,
Μιχάλοβιτς Δημήτρης

Μία από τις κορυφαίες τράπεζες του κόσμου εκδίδει ομόλογα που μπορούν να αγοραστούν με Bitcoin

Η ”China Construction Bank” συνεργάστηκε με μία fintech με έδρα το Χονγκ Κονγκ για να εκδώσει την πρώτη ψηφιακή ασφάλεια βασισμένη σε blockchain που εκδόθηκε από ένα κινεζικό χρηματοπιστωτικό ίδρυμα.

Μία από τις τράπεζες “Big Four” στη Λαϊκή Δημοκρατία της Κίνας, η ”CCB” κατατάσσεται στη δεύτερη μεγαλύτερη τράπεζα παγκοσμίως από το σύνολο των περιουσιακών στοιχείων από το φθινόπωρο του 2020.

Το σχέδιο της μεγάλης τράπεζας με τη νέα έκδοση χρέους που βασίζεται στο blockchain είναι να συγκεντρώσει συνολικά έως και 3 δισεκατομμύρια δολάρια, ξεκινώντας με μια δόση 58 εκατομμυρίων δολαρίων, από ιδιώτες και ιδρύματα. Τα ψηφιακά ομόλογα θα εκδοθούν μέσω ενός υπεράκτιου υποκαταστήματος της ”CCB” στο Labuan της Μαλαισίας, τουλάχιστον 100 $ το καθένα και θα έχει διάρκεια τριών μηνών. Πληρώνουν έναν ετήσιο τόκο Libor συν 50 μονάδες βάσης, ή περίπου 0,75%.

Η καινοτομία είναι ότι αυτά τα ομόλογα χρησιμοποιούνται ως αναγνωρισμένα πιστοποιητικά κατάθεσης στο blockchain, το οποίο υποστηρίζει την έκδοση τέτοιων ομολόγων μικρού ποσού. Τα ομόλογα που δεν βασίζονται σε blockchain συνήθως πωλούνται σε υψηλότερα ελάχιστα και επομένως περιορίζονται σε επαγγελματίες επενδυτές ή άλλες τράπεζες.

Επιπλέον, τα αναγνωρισμένα πιστοποιητικά κατάθεσης θα είναι εμπορεύσιμα στο χρηματιστήριο ”Fusan”. Το χρηματιστήριο, το οποίο ρυθμίζεται στο Labuan, θα ξεκινήσει τη ζωντανή διαπραγμάτευση των ομολόγων στις 13 Νοεμβρίου. Συγκεκριμένα, καθώς το ”Fusan” υποστηρίζει συναλλαγές σε κρυπτονομίσματα, οι έμποροι θα μπορούν να ανταλλάσσουν Bitcoin (BTC) με δολάρια ΗΠΑ για να αγοράσουν τα ομόλογα. Οι συναλλαγές θα χρεώνονται με προμήθεια.

Ο Διευθύνων Σύμβουλος του ”Fusang” Henry Chong είπε σε δημοσιογράφους ότι εάν τα ομόλογα είναι δημοφιλή, το ψηφιακό χρηματιστήριο σκοπεύει να ξεκινήσει παρόμοια προϊόντα σε άλλα νομίσματα. Το ετήσιο επιτόκιο των ομολόγων 0,75% είναι υψηλότερο από τα περισσότερα επιτόκια τραπεζικών καταθέσεων σε δολάρια ΗΠΑ, όπως τόνισε η ”Wall Street Journal”.

Οι φορολογούμενοι των Ηνωμένων Πολιτειών και της Κίνας, καθώς και οντότητες ή άτομα στο Ιράν και τη Βόρεια Κορέα, δεν θα μπορούν να αγοράσουν την ψηφιακή ασφάλεια. Όλα τα έσοδα από την έκδοση θα κατατεθούν στο υπεράκτιο υποκατάστημα Labuan της ”CCB”. Το Labuan είναι ένα μικρό νησί, και περιγράφεται από το ”WSJ” ως φορολογικό καταφύγιο.

Η ”CCB” «δεν ασχολείται με bitcoin ή κρυπτονομίσματα», αλλά «παίρνει τραπεζικές καταθέσεις, που είναι η βασική μας επιχείρηση», τόνισε ο COO της ”CCB Malaysia” Steven Wong. Ωστόσο, η προσφορά αναφέρεται ως μεγάλη καινοτομία. Πρόκειται για την «πρώτη δημόσια εισηγμένη εγγύηση χρέους σε ένα blockchain», δήλωσε ο Felix Feng Qi, διευθύνων σύμβουλος της υπεράκτιας Μαλαισιανής επιχείρησης της ”CCB” και κύριος αξιωματούχος του υποκαταστήματος ”CCB Labuan”.

Η υιοθέτηση Blockchain και ψηφιακών περιουσιακών στοιχείων συνεχίζει να αυξάνεται παρά την πανδημία COVID-19

Το ”Ripple” κυκλοφόρησε την ετήσια έκθεση «Blockchain in Payments» για τρίτη συνεχή χρονιά, προσφέροντας μια ολοκληρωμένη ματιά στη βιομηχανία fintech και τον αυξανόμενο ρόλο του blockchain στις πληρωμές.

Η έκθεση αποκάλυψε ότι όχι μόνο είναι δυνατή η ανάπτυξη πρωτοβουλιών blockchain και ψηφιακών περιουσιακών στοιχείων, αλλά έχει αυξηθεί και η εξοικείωσή τους. Σε πέντε παγκόσμιες περιοχές (Βόρεια Αμερική, Ευρώπη, Μέση Ανατολή και Αφρική, Λατινική Αμερική και Ασία-Ειρηνικός) η εξοικείωση με το blockchain και τα κρυπτονομίσματα κυμαίνεται από 82% έως 94%.

Η έκθεση διαπίστωσε επίσης ότι η υιοθέτηση του blockchain και το θετικό κλίμα αυξάνεται, με το 67% των ερωτηθέντων να ισχυρίζονται ότι τα κρυπτονομίσματα είναι καθαρά αξιόπιστα και πάνω από το ένα τρίτο χρησιμοποιεί πληρωμές blockchain. Διαπιστώθηκε επίσης ότι σχεδόν 4 στους 5 (79%) των καινοτόμων της βιομηχανίας ανέφεραν ανάπτυξη το 2020 παρά τις οικονομικές πιέσεις της πανδημίας Covid-19.

Άλλα βασικά ευρήματα περιλαμβάνουν:

  • Οι υπεύθυνοι θεωρούν το blockchain ως καύσιμο για την ανάπτυξη των επιχειρήσεων: 44% των ερωτηθέντων στην παραγωγή έχουν σημειώσει ισχυρή επιχειρηματική ανάπτυξη τους τελευταίους 12 μήνες – ενώ το 45% των ερωτηθέντων που ανέφεραν επεξεργασία κυρίως ψηφιακών συναλλαγών, σημείωσαν μεγάλη αύξηση.
  • Το ενδιαφέρον για τη χρήση ψηφιακών περιουσιακών στοιχείων έχει αυξηθεί δραματικά: το 99% των ερωτηθέντων δηλώνει ότι η επιχείρησή τους θα εξετάσει το ενδεχόμενο να χρησιμοποιήσει ένα ψηφιακό στοιχείο, είτε ως ίδιο το νόμισμα είτε ως μέσο για την άμεση επεξεργασία διασυνοριακών πληρωμών. Αυξήθηκε από 94% το 2018.
  • Οι καινοτόμοι της βιομηχανίας πραγματοποιούν σημαντική ανάπτυξη, ακόμη και κατά τη διάρκεια του Covid-19: αυτό αποδίδεται στην επέκταση των προϊόντων, των υπηρεσιών και των πελατών-στόχων εντός των εταιρειών, καθώς και στην καινοτομία της τεχνολογίας πληρωμών – βασικός μοχλός ανάπτυξης για το 44% των επιχειρήσεων.

More Use of Blockchain Technology Could Bring Benefits to Africa

Περισσότερη χρήση της τεχνολογίας Blockchain θα μπορούσε να αποφέρει οφέλη στην Αφρική

Η σχετικά πρόσφατη εμπειρία στον περιορισμό των επιδημιών του Έμπολα στην Αφρική επέτρεψε στα έθνη της να συγκρατήσουν αποτελεσματικά την εξάπλωση του κοροναϊού. Πολλές αφρικανικές χώρες έχουν αναπτύξει γρήγορα αποτελεσματικά μέτρα παρακολούθησης, ιχνών και καραντίνας του είδους που απουσιάζουν σημαντικά στις ΗΠΑ και την Ευρώπη. Ωστόσο, ο οικονομικός αντίκτυπος του ιού πλήττει περιοχές της Αφρικής με άλλους έμμεσους τρόπους.

Η Παγκόσμια Τράπεζα προβλέπει ότι η αξία των εμβασμάτων προς την υποσαχάρια Αφρική θα μειωθεί κατά περίπου 9% το 2020 λόγω της παγκόσμιας ύφεσης που προκαλείται από την πανδημία. Σε μια περιοχή όπου πολλές οικογένειες εξαρτώνται από εμβάσματα από μέλη του εξωτερικού, η πτώση είναι πιθανό να οδηγήσει σε αύξηση της επισιτιστικής ανασφάλειας και της φτώχειας.

Επιπλέον, η Παγκόσμια Τράπεζα διαπίστωσε ότι το κόστος αποστολής εμβασμάτων αξίας 200 $ στην υποσαχάρια Αφρική είναι περίπου 8,5% – μεταξύ των πιο ακριβών στον κόσμο. Ωστόσο, αναγνωρίζει επίσης ότι η ανάπτυξη της ψηφιακής τεχνολογίας είναι ένας τομέας που μπορεί να βοηθήσει στην ανακούφιση του κόστους των εμβασμάτων. Η μείωση του κόστους θα ενίσχυε την αξία των πληρωμών από το εξωτερικό, συμβάλλοντας στην αντιστάθμιση ορισμένων από τις αρνητικές οικονομικές επιπτώσεις της κρίσης COVID-19.

Μείωση χρεώσεων εμβάσματος με χρήση Blockchain

Δεδομένου του χαμηλού κόστους αποστολής πληρωμών μέσω blockchain, φαίνεται πιθανό ότι η τεχνολογία θα μπορούσε να διαδραματίσει σημαντικό ρόλο στη μείωση του κόστους των εμβασμάτων στην υποσαχάρια Αφρική. Είναι ένας τομέας που η εταιρεία ανάπτυξης blockchain ”Jelurida” έχει εντοπίσει ότι το blockchain θα μπορούσε να κάνει σημαντική διαφορά στη ζωή των ανθρώπων που ζουν στην Αφρική.

Μέσω του αφρικανικού υποκαταστήματος, ”Jelurida Africa DLT”, η εταιρεία συνεργάζεται με τοπικές επιχειρήσεις για να τις βοηθήσει να εφαρμόσουν τις λύσεις που βασίζονται σε blockchain στις επιχειρήσεις τους. Η ”Jelurida” διαχειρίζεται την πλατφόρμα πολλαπλών αλυσίδων ”Ardor”, η οποία διαθέτει μια καινοτόμο δομή αλυσίδας γονέων και παιδιών. Οποιοσδήποτε μπορεί να χρησιμοποιήσει το ”Ardor” για να δημιουργήσει τη δική του αλυσίδα για οποιαδήποτε περίπτωση χρήσης.

Το ”Bitswift” είναι ένα τέτοιο παράδειγμα. Λειτουργεί τα τελευταία έξι χρόνια και αποφάσισε να μεταφέρει την αρχιτεκτονική blockchain στο Ardor το 2017. Το ”Bitswift” είναι ένας συνδυασμός εταιρειών και μιας διαδικτυακής κοινότητας που συνεργάζεται για την προώθηση υγιών ψηφιακών τρόπων ζωής. Το υποκατάστημα ”Bitswift.cash” του επιτρέπει σε οποιονδήποτε να συμμετάσχει στην οικονομία token που βασίζεται σε blockchain, παρέχοντας ένα μέσο χαμηλού κόστους για τα δύο μέρη να πραγματοποιήσουν συναλλαγές αξίας. Έχει σχεδιαστεί για να προσελκύει ακόμη και μη τεχνικούς χρήστες που θέλουν να αποκομίσουν τα οφέλη από τα tokens των αγορών, καθιστώντας την μια εφαρμόσιμη λύση στην πρόκληση του υψηλού κόστους εμβασμάτων.

Ξεκλειδώνοντας τη δυναμική της αειφόρου ενέργειας

Το Blockchain προσφέρει επίσης σημαντικές δυνατότητες σε άλλους τομείς, πέρα ​​από τις καθαρές πληρωμές, που θα μπορούσαν να βοηθήσουν τους καινοτόμους που θέλουν να λύσουν προκλήσεις σε αφρικανικά έθνη. Για παράδειγμα, πολλές αφρικανικές χώρες εξακολουθούν να εξαρτώνται σε μεγάλο βαθμό από τα ορυκτά καύσιμα, τα οποία ενδέχεται να παρεμποδίζουν τις επενδύσεις σε ανανεώσιμες πηγές ενέργειας, σύμφωνα με τα Ηνωμένα Έθνη. Μόνο η Νιγηρία επιδοτεί την παραγωγή ορυκτών καυσίμων έως και 2,5 δισεκατομμύρια δολάρια κάθε χρόνο.

Επομένως, είναι σημαντικό να αρθούν τα εμπόδια σε πιο βιώσιμα μέσα παραγωγής ενέργειας. Μέσω της ελβετικής οντότητάς της, η ”Jelurida” συνεργάζεται με ένα έργο που συνεργάζεται με την αυστριακή κυβέρνηση και στοχεύει στην ανακύκλωση των αποβλήτων θερμικής ενέργειας. Το έργο ονομάζεται “Hot City” και χρησιμοποιεί gamification για να συσσωρεύσει τη θερμότητα που μπορεί να ανακυκλωθεί στο ενεργειακό δίκτυο. Οι πολίτες μπορούν να ανταμειφθούν για τις προσπάθειές τους στον εντοπισμό αυτών των πηγών χρησιμοποιώντας μάρκες που βασίζονται σε blockchain, οι οποίες προστατεύονται χρησιμοποιώντας την πλατφόρμα ”Ardor”. Αν και αυτή τη στιγμή λειτουργεί στη Βιέννη, μια τέτοια πρωτοβουλία θα μπορούσε να είναι ακόμη πιο πολύτιμη σε μια πόλη όπως το Λάγος, η οποία έχει περίπου επτά φορές τον πληθυσμό της Βιέννης. Θα μπορούσε να μειώσει την εξάρτηση από τα ορυκτά καύσιμα, συμβάλλοντας στην εξοικονόμηση κόστους, καθώς και στην καταπολέμηση των επιπτώσεων της κλιματικής αλλαγής.

Υποστηρίζοντας τη Νέα Καινοτομία

Η ”Jelurida Africa” υποστηρίζει την ανάπτυξη μιας νέας γενιάς καινοτόμων blockchain μέσω του ”Africa Blockchain Institute”. Το ινστιτούτο προσφέρει πολλά κορυφαία στον κλάδο προγράμματα βοηθώντας τους υποψήφιους προγραμματιστές να δημιουργήσουν τα διαπιστευτήριά τους.

Η ”Jelurida” υπήρξε επίσης πρόσφατα βασικός συμμετέχων στη σειρά ”Call Block Developers” της Αφρικής, παρουσιάζοντας διάφορες εφαρμογές που δημιουργήθηκαν στην πλατφόρμα ”Ardor”, συμπεριλαμβανομένης μιας εφαρμογής ”Smart Voting Bot” και του ”GiveSafely”, ενός ασφαλούς συστήματος για φιλανθρωπικές δωρεές.

Σε μια ήπειρο τόσο μεγάλη και ποικιλόμορφη όσο η Αφρική, δεν υπάρχει λύση «one-size-fits-all» σε οποιοδήποτε ζήτημα. Ωστόσο, η τεχνολογία blockchain είναι αρκετά ευέλικτη για να αντιμετωπίσει πολλές από τις συγκεκριμένες προκλήσεις που αντιμετωπίζουν οι αφρικανικές χώρες. Η ”Jelurida Africa” δίνει έμφαση στην εκπαίδευση και την καινοτομία για να βοηθήσει τις επιχειρήσεις και τους επιχειρηματίες να ξεκλειδώσουν τα πραγματικά οφέλη του blockchain.
