Pashinyan about pre-war negotiations and "avoiding" the war:

The idea that a flexible foreign policy could have avoided this war is being constantly circulated. Those [former officials] who believe in this thesis must answer at least one question: as a result of their "flexible" policy, why was it not possible to avoid the war of 2016, which was preceded by the unprecedented escalation of 2015 and 2014?
The "flexible" policy adopted by Armenia for many years led to the introduction of Russian proposals in January 2016, which proposed the return of 7 territories (5 + 2) without any legal status for Nagorno-Karabakh.
Why did Russia make such an offer? For one simple reason, as a result of Armenia's "flexible" policy, the Madrid process had come to a standstill because Artsakh could receive a Status outside Azerbaijan only with the consent of Azerbaijan.
It was obvious to Russia and everyone else that Azerbaijan would not agree to this, so it was necessary to find ways to break the deadlock.
And, by the way, if certain people claim that Armenia's foreign policy after 2018 was not sufficiently pro-Russian and this was the reason for the war, then why in the conditions of the "sufficiently pro-Russian" policy of 2016 were Russian proposals born and why did the April war take place?
There was only one way to prevent this war: return the regions and forget about Artsakh's legal status. Now, after the war is over and we know the outcome, the number of supporters of [giveaway of 7 regions] is growing. What they forget is that if we gave away the lands to avoid the war, we would have the same situation in Syunik borders. They used to accuse us of "selling lands" [he means the contradictory statements like Nikol sold the lands, and why didn't Nikol sell the lands earlier to avoid the war].
The biggest failure by the supporters of the "flexible policies" is that they spent years trying to avoid a war instead of preparing for it. Our biggest failure is that we weren't able to recover enough embezzled public property in the past 2.5 years to help us better prepare for the war.

businesses owned by opposition leaders

What are the known businesses owned by some of the famous people you might have seen in the public square lately?

Vazgen Manukyan

20% share in Lorva Amrots Ltd which plans to operate two hydro-power plants on Dzoraget river. Manukyan purchased the shares in 2011 after being appointed by Serj as the head of the Public Council.
In 2015-2016, he owned 30% shares in Vanavka Group. In 2015-2017 he had 30% shares in Jermakunq Group. These companies extracted and bottled water. At the time, the director of these companies was charged with illegal bottling and causing ֏55 million in damages to the state. The corruption case was sent to the IRS, which terminated the investigation after "not finding a crime". The companies export the products mostly to Russia.
 

Arthur Vanetsyan

Vanetsyan is a poor boy, according to the public declarations database. But if you have time, take a look at the investigative report I covered in Ap29/2020 news, according to which Vanetsyan's family allegedly used offshore firms and owns mining shares. More on that here. Here is a Hetq investigative report.
Vanetsyan's father owns AV Group flower importing business. About a year ago, the police investigated several flower sellers near a stadium. An opposition outlet claimed that the sellers were "beaten and forced" to testify that Vanetsyan's father was running an underground business. This was never properly proven and the opposition's claim that Vanetsyan was about to be charged did not happen. The police confirmed that there was an investigation against several flower sellers. These flower sellers ended up hiring Vanetsyan's co-party-creator Arsen Babayan as a lawyer.
Vanetsyan's father owns 50% shares of A B Export oil import company that began operating in 2017. It was a minor player that quit the market in 2019. Vanetsyan's father also owns 60% of A B Trans transportation company.
In Nov/2019, CivilNet wrote about Arthur Vanetsyan's cousins' possible involvement with Zangezur Copper factory (massive business). The same offshore firm in Cyprus, which purchased Zangezur shares, was tied to Vanetsyan's cousins' another business in the same offshore.
Vanetsyan's cousins also own a Switzerland-based Exoil wholesale cooking oil and shipping company. In 2019 it had a revenue of $148 million (11 billion Rubles). The cousins don't do this business in Armenia.
Per 2019 registration, Arthur Vanetsyan himself owns one apartment, $10,000, and ֏1 million.
Media reported in May/2020 that Vanetsyan's cousin purchased a ֏300 million mansion in Yerevan, which was donated to then-new political party "Hayreniq", co-founded by Arthur Vanetsyan and Arsen Babayan (the guy who is accused of helping HHK to fabricate documents in 2018 to hijack the Constitutional Court by appointing HHK MP Hrayr Tovmasyan as a judge).
Arthur Vanetsyan's mother served as the chief of the personnel-management department in Serj and Pashinyan administrations, before quitting and working as Serj's aide.
Vanetsyan's wife owns Villa Montessori preschool in Yerevan. She also runs the Young Education Center Ltd.
 

ARF Ishkhan Saghatelyan

Pashinyan appointed Saghatelyan as Gegharquniq governor for a brief period after the 2018 revolution, when Pashinyan created a unity-government, represented by all political parties. The honeymoon soon ended and each party went their way.
Saghatelyan owns shares in i-mega Service Ltd. It's a tourism agency founded in 2006. It operates in Armenia, Artsakh, and Georgia.
Saghatelyan founded Navasar company and serves as director. It's owned by his father.
Saghatelyan family owns the Tsovasar hotel complex on Lake Sevan shores. It's 10,000 m² (a hectare?).
As of 2018, Saghatelyan declared ownership of 8 pieces of land, 2 apartments, ֏18.5 million, $45,000, and €15,000.
Saghatelyan's father is the mayor of Gegharquniq's Geghamavan settlement. This municipality had recently sent a letter demanding Pashinyan's resignation.
Saghatelyan used to be a shareholder of Shiman Ltd which is no longer active.

opposition continues the demonstrations

The street demonstrations, organized by the former regime and its allies, continue. They demand Pashinyan's resignation and the appointment of their candidate Vazgen Manukyan as the Prime Minister for the duration of a year, after which they agree to hold new elections.
ARF leader Artsvik Minasyan said they don't plan to discuss snap elections with Pashinyan. "Right now, our only demand is Pashinyan's resignation. We demand SIS to immediately hold every criminal accountable". The demonstrators gathered in front of the SIS building to present the demands.
https://armenpress.am/arm/news/1039316.html

Pashinyan meets leaders of several opposition parties

QP leader Lilith: there is a possibility there will be a meeting between Pashinyan and the three Parliamentary political parties. They could discuss snap elections. The impression is that politicians who demand Pashinyan's resignation do not want snap elections in an attempt to bypass the citizen's right to form a government. Our political team reaffirms the position that none of us is clinging on seats. //
LHK MP Gorgisyan: we cannot hold snap elections now, under this chaotic situation. We will discuss snap elections if Pashinyan discusses his resignation and transfer of power. (LHK wants its leader Marukyan to be elected as Prime Minister by a Parliamentary vote) //
Pashinyan met BHK leader Tsarukyan. The latter is against holding snap elections unless Pashinyan resigns now, and presumably, he wants Vazgen Manukyan appointed as PM.
LHK leader Marukyan also wants Pashinyan to resign now so a new Prime Minister can form a new government cabinet "consisted of experts".

felony case: ex-HHK MP charged with armed attack on ex-IRS official

In August of this year, Russia extradited a former HHK MP Alraghatsi Lyovik to Armenia. He was wanted for allegedly burglarizing and shooting at a senior IRS official a decade ago. At the time, his case was "frozen". It was relaunched in 2018. (magic wand)
NSS says: suspect Lyovik, with the help of citizens AK and AN, organized an armed burglary against IRS Chief (?) Avetisyan in 2008.
AK was in the United States. In 2004, he stole $150,000 from jewelry shops in Los Angeles. He got caught but managed to flee to Armenia.
Once in Armenia, AK colluded with policeman AN to organize a similar criminal ring in Armenia.
[MP] Lyovik personally knew AK, and learned about their burglaries. Since Lyovik had bad relations with the IRS chief (victim), he decided to punish the victim by urging AK to burglarize his house. Lyovik revealed the plot to his brother-in-law, who happened to be the victim's personal aide. The latter gave all the personal habits and details about the victim to the burglars.
[read the article for the full story, or wait for a Hollywood movie in theaters near you]
The burglars and organizers are charged with felonies.

search operations are paused / the "welcome to Azerbaijan" sign

Azerbaijan received criticism for refusing to allow search teams to enter the Hadrut region yesterday. They also prevented UNESCO from checking the status of several Armenian cultural sights, after complaining that UNESCO was "biased" against Azerbaijan during the war.
HR Ombudsman: Any untrue information can not be a reason to disrupt the humanitarian process [referring to unconfirmed rumors on social media that Armenians opened fire at Azeris in Hadrut. An unofficial Iranian social media channel claims 3 Azeris were killed but due to an internal fight.]
The Human Rights Ombudsman also criticized the Azeri troops for installing a provocative "welcome to Azerbaijan" sign on part of a road that went under Azeri control near Syunik borders. The Ombudsman says it's meant to intimidate the locals.

Parliament votes: BHK MP Naira Zohrabyan's chairmanship

Context: BHK MP Naira Zohrabyan referred to the majority of Armenian voters as human trash *(or as she says: impure), and called for the establishment of forced re-education camps so people won't vote for a "wrong party" again. The ruling QP party launched a process to terminate her chairmanship in Parliamentary Human Rights Committee. Read yesterday's thread for more details.*
QP MP Arthur: the law states that the Parliament can appoint and terminate the chairman. The termination of this seat does not require the same procedures as in the case of MPs and Judges. Armenian Constitution states that in Armenia, human beings are of the highest value, and inalienable human dignity is the inseparable basis of their rights and freedoms. MP Zohrabyan's public conduct is against it. //
The law gives the second-largest political party the mandate to appoint the chairman of this particular Committee. BHK, being the second-largest party, said they wouldn't appoint a replacement if Zohrabyan is voted out.
QP MP Arthur: per rules, if BHK refuses to appoint a new candidate, the largest (QP) party will receive the mandate. //
Parliament voted 78-4 to terminate Zohrabyan's chairmanship. BHK and LHK did not vote.
BHK MP Zohrabyan: this termination was a Constitutional crime.

Parliament votes: registering parties becomes easier / ideology instead of person / financial transparency

The goal of this reform is to have political parties that are more about ideology and less about an individual. The reform will boost internal democracy within parties; it will expand the powers of the Party Assembly.
Parties will be required to add more anonymous voting mechanisms.
The law also requires more financial transparency.
The required membership to register a party is lowered from 800 to 300.
Some of the public funding given to political parties will depend on the % of female members in the administrative boards.
Parliament voted 99-1 to approve it.

Parliament votes: ban on public smoking is delayed until 2022

The govt had adopted a law to ban smoking in public cafes and the public display of cigarettes in grocery shops. The ruling party wanted to delay parts of the bill that were set to go into effect in January, citing possible financial issues for businesses caused by the pandemic.
QP MP: the cigarette industry pays $383 million to state coffers.
Healthcare Ministry: it will be a mistake if you delay this bill for the sake of $10 million in tax revenues.
Parliament voted 86-0 to delay the anti-smoking bill until 2022.

Parliament votes: no tax on goods donated to Armenia

The High Tech Ministry has an ongoing program to teach IT to 5,000 citizens. We must help workers to expand their skillset. We're working on a program to allow a worker to quit the job, not worry about the food on the table, and have enough time for education and learning new skills.
The villagers should ideally lease their smaller lands to large agricultural producers," said Economy Minister Qerobyan.

GANG PERKS
The Lost MC guys have as 25% increase on store robbery payouts, called the “Intimidation Factor”. The Mafia have a “No Witnesses” perk which means their gunshots are hidden from police because no locals call the cops on these guys. This is just a couple examples of the custom additions we’ve made.

Kashy is a bad person, but I still respect him.
I recently watched most of his videos on krunker and you cannot deny his dedication to the game. I would argue he, along with Lethal, Uchiha, and caL is one of the best traders in the game. This doesn’t excuse his greed, which ended up being his downfall, but I would argue that he's not as horrible as people say.
His casino map was going to give back to the community anyway, and what does Kashy do nearly every video? A giveaway. He has given away far more than he has taken, which doesn’t wipe his slate clean but you can’t besmirch him for stealing anymore, because he’s given back so many items, including a rayn sniper which is worth 130k I believe. Again, what he did was wrong but I think it’s time we forgive Kashy and move on. We have no more reason to diss on him, and he deserves some kind of respect for his achievements in the game. Who else here can say they traded up to a Frostbite or that they own a scouts mastery?
I am not defending Kashy, but he deserves some of his dignity back.
Anyway, thanks for reading my post, and use code kashy. 😏

Ok first of all I don't stake at all. I used to stake in rs2/rs3 and now I play osrs without gambling.
The first biggest problem that will happen if you delete duel arena is that will support third party websites with runescape casino. There are couple big websites I'm not gonna name that already make insane amount of money that they can daily giveaway 200m just as advertisement. If you delete duel arena there will be much more of them and owners can easilly scam users by playing there, duel arena is atleast safe gamble. If you pay attention to rules of staking.
Second huge problem is money sink. Duel arena delete crazy amount of gp daily from the game. Now if there won't be such huge money sink and not even rare items that worth over 5b gp then all normal items gonna go up with price and they will grow daily. There will be massive inflation.
I know that duel arena is gambling and it can ruin lives, but if you're smart enough you won't lose your mind gambling on osrs. But sure jagex should make some limits or account verification before staking that could help the number of players being addicitve. For example in casino when player feel like he is getting addictive and still want to enjoy playing in casino he can set his daily limit he spend there, or put himself on blacklist.
If someone come with solution how to delete duel arena and solve these two problems then I have no problem. For me I just want to enjoy game and these changes can affect even me normal player. And game might die.

Right now I'm pretty bored so let me tell you guys a story about one of my best friends and I.
A few months ago, when i was on a break from school, i was gaming gt like always and found a quirky player in a random casino world. He was telling other people to go to his world, and so i said "ok" and played along. He was Finnish btw. The world he told me to go to was a casino world. Oh how surprising! Anyway, i got that he was trying to be a scammer, but being pretty immature at that time, greed got the better of me and we eventually decided to be scamming buddies. We scammed a few people by making a fake casino where i would act as a player. We earned a few wls but barely much anyway, and right now i still think it was pretty harmless. However, we scammed one guy who had only a single wl, and so we felt bad and decided to give him back the wl. That happened over the course of an entire afternoon, and i felt that the fun time we had was more important than the wls we earned. The next day, we eventually thought about yesterday's events and came to a consensus that scamming was stupid, and that working honestly was better and faster to getting rich. Thus, we decided to do a massing project together. We started massing d boxes. My friend already made a world for the both of us to mass together in, and we split the cost in acquiring the ingredients. Slowly but surely, we worked together and cleared step by step until we had all the d boxes ready. it took nearly a week, but we had much fun playing together and making dirty jokes with each other(we were teens okay?). It was then i realised my friend wasnt really normal. He would talk to me about having no friends in school, and being bullied by his classmates. Its because of a facial scar he received when he was young. We were great friends by then so i tried to comfort him, and also make him feel better about his situation. I even told him that his family members still care about him, so he can consider them as 'friends'. He took everything i said seriously and really really seemed to like me a lot. He would tp to me wherever i went so we could hang out, and every time he would remind me about how much he appreciates my company.
"Isn't it rough having no friends?"
"But i have friends."
"Wow, you made friends in school?"
"No, my father is my friend. u said that didnt u?"
This conversation stuck with me. For the first time in my life i felt how it is like having someone really rely on me for support.
Eventually, he became my best friend in growtopia. He branched off on his own to build his own world and make music, and would talk to me really excitedly about all his achievements. This sounds really cheesy but i was proud of him, and myself too. We became richer and richer till both of us had diamond locks. The both of us would do geiger hunting and parkour together. We would tp to giveaway worlds and try to earn ez wls. And i believed that if it wasnt for me, he would have just become a scammer.
There was one time where i got scammed a dl's worth of stuff. I wanted to just give up and quit, but he refused to let me go and even cried to one of our friends. He dmed me in snapchat to persuade me not to leave, and, he succeeded. I felt that i was letting him and my other friends down by giving up so easily, so i decided to persevere. Though that dl worth of stuff was all i had then, he managed to help me keep on going. Later that day, i found a geiger charger using my geiger counter and pretty much made all my losses back. We were over the freaking moon!
However, as i have been scammed in the past in my previous accounts, i still had this wall blocking him from gaining all my trust, as i know the consequences of letting someone intrude my privacy too much. In contrast, he was very trusting of me. I dont think he was exactly happy about it, as he could put all his faith in me whereas i could not bring myself to do the same. It wasnt exactly fair. And this slowly but surely seeped into our relationship. I felt like he was secretly a little sour inside because i could not fully trust him.
There was one occasion where he wanted the both of us to drop our locks together so he can take a selfie. However, to me that was a no-no. He very casually drops all his wls, expecting me to do the same. But i just cant. I felt unsafe. And so i denied. He kept on pressing me to do it though, saying its just a selfie. I was adamant though, and eventually he gave up on the selfie. I have no idea if he wanted to scam me or not, as a regular person would never drop ALL his wls in front of a person they dont even know in real life. But he did, and i know it was all he had. I felt guilty for doing that, as i think he was hurt by my lack of trust in him. Even though he said he was fine when i asked him and apologized, i felt that deep inside, my friend was still unhappy.
Some time later, he came into my world and told me he wanted to hang out. He asked why i had tons of random seeds stored up and i told him it was for pineapple fest. I elaborated that i could have the possibility of getting a pine guard and other good prizes by consuming the pineapples, and he was pretty interested. Then, he saw the display box trees growing in my world. In unison, we starting talking about our first project and the struggles back in the day. We are still pretty poor lol (only a few dls, not even 5) but not as filthy poor as then. It was nice reminiscing on those nostalgic times. Everything was good till i realised he was hanging out in my world for an awfully long time, even when i wasnt even in my world. I didnt bother really, but looking back I SHOULD HAVE.
On the day that my display boxes have fully grown, he went to my world and harvested them behind my back. he also took my vend and other seeds, along with more items. When i saw him taking the trees, i thought he only wanted to help me harvest them, and i didnt mind him taking the gems. However, when his backpack was full and i asked him to drop them so i can store my stuff, he left without a word and unfriended me. I messaged him many times but he did not reply. Hours later, we never contacted each other ever again. I couldnt even message him on snapchat. I am not salty about the 50 ish wls i lost but rather the great friend that i had to let go. I believe our relationship was genuine, and so having everything blown to dust in a fit of greed felt very, very sour.
Fast forward to today, and I have not had a friend like him again. I havent played in months and when i logged on last week, less than 5 of my 53 friends were even online at any given time. Most of the time its just me and me alone. Not to mention, some of my friends have changed their usernames, and so i never knew them again. I miss all my great friends in GT. Shout out to JaTheGreat, punchfunn, AviciiAwaken, and more. However, to the irreplaceable friend who betrayed me, I just want to say sorry, and thank you for the good times.
Farewell, 5645j.

I found out this game from a sibling and I didn't like it from the beginning but I kept playing and playing and I started to love it. My first world name is now nuked because it was turned into a casino when we lost the world. Me and my brother loved to do farming, mostly sugar canes. When I won a Ripper Wing from a giveaway, I tried selling it for one wl. I tried and tried and tried but eventually, I gave up. My brother was busy breaking the whole world and then we changed our name into a GrowID. I was scared of creating a GrowID because I thought I was going to lose all my items so what did I do? I dropped all of my items except 1 dirt. I changed it into Bourne532 and I didn't lose my dirt and We went our day. Then something very unfortunate happened, My brother didn't want to change his GrowID and for some reason, his dad deleted it by accident and lost all of his items and gems, etc. He had to go get all of his stuff back from square one. We just got 200 Sugar Cane Seeds and checked the price of sugar cane seeds and it was 150/1. I was ecstatic and immediately sold the seeds and got our first world lock! We removed the small lock that we still used then........ Someone went to our world and immediately locked it with a World Lock and banned us from that world. Mind you this was our first world and now it's gone and owned by a casino host. We used the world lock to lock the world and sadly forgot the name but it started with BOURNEINFERNO or something along with that. I started to watch some GT Youtubers and found out that people can scam you via trading, drop games, casinos, etc. We started to avoid any of those games and started to clear the world. We cleared the world completely in 5 days. We went back to farming sugar canes and got 300 sugar cane seeds and sold it for 2 wls. I watched some more youtube and found out that Fishtanks are a good farmable for beginners. Sadly, my brother quitted because he was getting bored. I had to do gt alone. I have to go play GT alone.
Part 2 coming out soon.

I came across a Singapore youtuber, whose primary audience are kids and teenagers, advertising a gambling website and i would like to bring forth a discussion about the moral obligations of youtubers.
As i am unfamiliar with the rules of this subreddit, i will not be linking the video unless i am allowed to.
In this youtuber particular video, he accepted the sponsorship of a notorious gambling website called drakemall and does an entire video gambling on this website. It is notable to point out that this person is a part of JianHao's team and as JianHao's viewer demographic are largely kids and teenagers, such action brings this person's moral and ethics into question. Drakemall offers mystery box that you can buy, with real cash, in exchange for random items that you can either sell back to the website or to be delivered to you. The cost of these mystery box ranges from a few cents to a few hundred dollars; and it is very unlikely that you will profit as per any gambling games (bacarrat, slots, etc.) the odds are always in the favour of the house. Additionally, such odds in these kind of mystery box shady websites are not transparent. Many famous international youtuber such as RiceGum was condemned for accepting such sponsorship, so why is our local youtuber doing the very same act?
For starters, this is highly immoral as all casinos around the world require you to be of 21 as you would have the mental capacity to be responsible for your actions, losses and finances. Drakemall disguised itself as a "for-fun" website with it's colourful background and childish product you could obtain. There is NO regulation from signing up and play; and that is highly dangerous for the impressionable teenagers or kids. I tried signing up and it was easy with a simple few clicks of the button. While it does states on the website that you need to be of 18 years old, this is way hidden on the bottom of the page and is likely done for legal protection of the website. The manifestation of impressionable teenagers are evident in the comment section, where majority of the comments are in favour of his actions.
The worse part of all is that he lured his audience into watching his video by promising free giveaways and he incessantly recommends his audience to sign up for a VIP account on this website. As mentioned, this is highly unethical and unacceptable to be preying on his uninformed audiences, whom i like to remind again, are kids and teenagers. Reading through most of the comment, i came across a comment that says he had lost $60 on the website. From his nickname, he is likely an uninformed kid.
**ʂყɬɧɛ Gaming _**2 weeks ago
I tried wasted 60Sgd Bought vip but still get nothing good
Such mystery box opening websites are, no doubt, gambling and there have been a significant amount of documentaries (search t-martn) and youtuber video exposing them. Such website runs rampage and as soon as they are reported and removed, dozens more website appears. This is the modus operandi of Drakemall who originally started their mystery box opening with CSGO skins under the name of drakemoon, iirc, and it eventually shut down due to lawsuit from Valve. The reason why these mystery box advertising are unethical and misleading is because when these website owners approach youtuber for advertising, they offers a huge sum of money and heavily skews the odds for unboxing expensive stuff for the youtuber (this is explained and exposed from the documentaries). This then gives the audience the impression that it is very easy to unbox expensive stuff and 'win big' for themselves too. But as mentioned, the odds of all the loots available in the mystery box are not transparent. This modus operandi is very evident in the aforementioned youtuber's video, whereby he easily unbox an iphone x easily, and coupled with impressionable kids, such advertisement is highly dangerous.
So, i would like to question the moral obligation of this youtuber in the product they advertise. They accepted such immoral advertisement knowingly that their audience are kids. What's more, i believed that this particular youtuber lacks no offers from sponsorship given his popularity for being JianHao's member. Unfortunately, greed got better of this person.
As we transition into a cashless society, teenagers and kid often see little inherent value in tangible cash and more through branded products, this allures them to start gambling at these websites. Being a youtuber and an aspiring role model to many, he should be using his position to educate his audience for the better.
​
Edit: Some of the comments have pointed out that just dated two years ago, mystery box vending machine was ruled as a form of public lottery and all operation were quickly forced to desist. This is the very same illegal gambling product this youtuber is promoting.

AMA took place here: https://t.me/youforia2020
All questions were answered by the dev quantumFLUX:
Q&A:
Q: How would you explain YFR to someone who has only heard of Bitcoin and has basically no knowledge about Blockchain tech?
A: youForia offers a PoS program that does not require the holder to have a continuous internet connection. Monkey language PoS: Hold tokens get rewards, see it as a savings account which you hold tokens to get interests. But youForia isn't just focused on being a PoS token, we created the PoS feature to reward holders for waiting till the total development is done for youForia. youForia is building an own streaming platform/social media platform which will be integrated with the blockchain.youForia will make it easy as 1,2,3 to reward people for content creating, or maybe you wanna send some tokens to your aunt who lives on the other side of the world. youForia will be use-able on all social media platforms that exist today and we will keep developing on future platform + our own platform of course. And if that is not enough, youForia creating an open-world RPG based game on the blockchain which will be integrated with youForia. And eventually, all tokens can be listed in our game, which makes it very interesting.
​
Q: Where do you see Youforia in 1 - 2 years?
A: I want the streaming/social media platform done by then, and focus on building our open-world game
​
Q: I would like to have an update on the game developments...
A: Current updates on game developments; A artist is drawing artwork for the game, and the basic codings are made...When the time is there, I will eventually hire people to help to build the game...I have a history in game developing, and I can reach out to friends...
​
Q: What will YouForia be for in the game...purchasing equipment or land or something like that?
A: Yes exactly. Think about weapons, potions, rare cosmetic items
​
Q: Future Exchanges?
A: Exchanges that I have in mind for the future is Mercatox/Idex
​
Q: Are there new partnerships on the way?
A: Yea, once cryptoraves has its platform integrated with chainlink. We will partner up with cryptoraves for social media tipping. Cryptoraves will focus on moving around tokens on all social media.
​
Q: Would there be any future chain swap by Yfr + which chain might you prefer?
A: If ethereum keeps acting like this, I think youForia is forced to do a swap chain. youForia will all be about the trading, moving around tokens in the game, platforms, dividends or rewards. We need that to be cheap. But I think we should have patience till ETH 2.0I think TRON is very interesting, also for building dApps you already have some devs building on the tronchain.
​
Q: Will there be any marketing campaigns in the near future?
A: yeah once this fund sale is over, I'm going full-blown marketing mode. the uniswap pool is way more interesting then...
​
Q: Now that the ETH rewards are gone, do you already have plans for another way of distributing rewards other than ETH?
A: yes, I am thinking about holding all ECIT - Eternal Casino Investment Tokens holding on the youForia address. Which pays out monthly ESH, which can be swapped into ETH for rewards. Or swap it into TRX and people can swap dividends for TRX to make it cheap, but for now, I have ECIT in mind. And I hold loads of that tokens, so I get a decent amount of ESH monthly. It's not the 0.7 ETH weekly as before, but it a start.
​
Q: Can we get an update on the development of the hardware wallet and the streaming platform?
A: Hardware wallet needs better security, but that is almost finished. The streaming platform is done for 50% and I will start dropping teasers soon. Other things f'ed some development up, but that's ok: step by step. and I will always find a solution. simple.
​
Q: How expensive will the hardware wallet be?
A: I think around 5$ in $YFR. But it would be nice to find an anonymous way of selling/buyingDecentralized marketplace
​
Q: Besides Hardware wallet is there any plan for mobile/android Yfr wallet?
A: Yes, when we release the hardware wallet. We also release all software
​
Q: Will $YFR have any some more possible uses in those wallets?
A: Yes, people will be able to stake their YFR directly. To get a daily %But then you will need a continuous internet connection.

Q: But daily dividends seem a bit expensive to be sent out. Is there a solution for that?

Q: There were some rumours about a coinsbee listing. May we get an update on that?

Q: The whitepaper says " 3.2 Every transaction will burn 1 $YFR from the stake pool, Burn happens every 24 hours." I don't see those transactions on the blockchain, why is that?
