Misha Granin for Vice President (at least for a day, so we all can create NEM Foundation 2.0)

[granin]

I’ve published

Please share my interview in all NEM Telegram chats:

Interview with Misha Granin, NEM Foundation Vice-President candidate recorded…

I’d like to add transcript and subtitles in more languages. Can anyone proofread this Japanese translation?

こんにちはLatiNEMチャンネルにいらっしゃいました。

私はMisha Graninと私は約2年の間NEMと一緒に働いています
そして、私は開発に集中してNEMを改善するつもりです。
これが私たちが最も欠けているものです。
私たちがすぐに提供できるものはたくさんありますが、現在提供しているものがほとんどないので、このギャップを埋めるために、開発をスピードアップし、最高の才能を獲得し、オープンソースコミュニティー全体を獲得する必要があります。

NEMエコシステムを拡大し、Catapultが市場のナンバーワン技術であることを確認します。
当初、nemは地域に多くの独立性を与えていましたが、今や私たちはそれがグローバルな組織とグローバルな管理の欠如につながっていることがわかります。だから今、すべてのことが財団によって一元的に管理されているときに、一貫した戦略を立て、グローバルな執行レベルを確立することに焦点を当てる時が来ました。

私たちは分散プラットフォームですが、成功するためには各地域で一貫した行動が必要です。

だから、私が働いている他の組織でこのような課題を解決した私の経験が、NEMの成功を達成するのに役立つだろうと確信しています。

そしてラテンアメリカ地域については、ラテンアメリカが最大の課題を解決したので、あなたは本当にラッキーだと思います。
それは非常に多くのドアを開いており、それはブロックチェーンセンターの開発、多くの会合が起こっている、本当に良い牽引と本当に良いリードの流れ。

だから今私たちがしなければならないのは、ラテンアメリカに最高の素材を提供することです。私たちが他の地域と共有できる最も成功したこと、そして最も重要なのはNEM財団の直接サポートです。

For this to happen please first of all join @Xpedite, me and others and give your vote for candidates who elected by POI vote that happens before elections day:

I’ve done my best to inspire best people I know and people @Xpedite suggested to initiate POI vote and didn’t have choice as no one did it. I’ve initiated it. Details in quote from my reply to his original post:

I'll put my vote where my mouth is

Let’s start a movement:

https://youtu.be/fW8amMCVAJQ

We’ve lost NEM, watch the full video, again and again, to understand how NEM again can get from one to many (screenshots from youtube link quoted above):

Copy this link to youtube video above and send it to everyone who has even 0.05 XEM and shares it with a few words from your heart.
Everyone has to see video @Xpedite posted, listen to it carefully and do just that.
For now, it’s just to

• give POI vote now using this simple guide
  *in case you are eligible member hold your vote for now

The leader doesn’t have much role, and it doesn’t matter who started the movement, @Xpedite, @nembit86 or @JohnGalt You are the hero, who follows the movement first and who joins in after it.

Disclosure: I am the person who’ve initiated COMMUNITY POI vote and, I did it as I believe that NEM is community first and foremost.
NOT group of people who control community being afraid that NEM community that gave them job leaves them on the street without their job,
** NOT** (probably nonexisting) Singapore laws prohibiting POI,
** NOT** even NEM Foundation itself and for sure
** NOT** few people those ~200 members eligible for EGM vote.

More on why I initiated COMMUNITY POI vote in my candidacy forum thread: Misha Granin for Vice President (at least for a day, so we all can create NEM Foundation 2.0)

PS Next best thing you can do after giving POI vote now is think of ideas how this message can be spread globally to everyone one who ever had NEM, they all have some importance for us now, and yes, they have some importance score too.

• Should we make a separate thread or even section on the forum for this?
• Should we make simpler shorter guide?
• Should we send messages on NEM blockchain to inform about POI?
• Should we contact in person each Telegram account in our chats?
• Should we record videos about it? Do infographics? Post on all our channels?
  Don’t just look for ideas or share them, start implementing what you can.

It’s not about this candidates now; it’s about NEM community showing to the world and itself that it still exists.

[granin]

s think of ideas how this message can be spread globally

Probably chat is better for opened brainstorming so feel free to join us on Telegram. Please join our chat https://t.me/NF2_0

[granin]

I am not sure if someone is playing of spamming voting polls but it’s another reason for us to start doing something about it

Those 3 new polls in the top of the list could be easily created on Testnet, they seem to be pure testing.

Hello newbie. Where were you last year?

What about the ZEUS ecxchange you were setting up months ago, is it working?

[r3n3]

Misha, I think you could actually mention some of the work which kept you busy and not too active in the NEM community in the past months.
Tongokongo is right; you had been rather invisible to the community in the past months. Anyhow, don’t take me wrong - I’m happy to see your comeback to the public community

[r3n3]

@tongokongo
IMHO given the only existing options Nelson/Misha… I would prefer you not to pick to much on Misha … Disclaimer: Misha is my friend.
Nelson had always mentioned that he’s just a soldier following commands from above and he’s not up for anything political. Which makes me wonder who’s soldier he could be now, being put into the VP position candidacy.

[lady_in_dreams]

I would also like to receive an answer to this question.
granin And why was your friend Denis Druzhkov fired from ZEUS?
P.S : “With whom you visited Latin America”

[tongokongo]

So many new accounts here lol. Welcome, anonymous newbie @lady_in_dreams

@r3n3 sorry, but it appeared those topics were known only to the current Foundation members.
And we both know I am a No-One in NEM. It’s hard to judge the bigger picture without knowing all the details.

[lady_in_dreams]

Hi Tony, I watch your videos, you make a great contribution to NEM

[Trikar_Blockchain]

hen for a year I was NEM Industry Partnership Coordinator speaking and traveling extensively to start over 100 projects like national stock exchanges, pilots in national banks and opening new countries for NEM with conferences and other events, yet focusing on NEM development with my team of over dozen developers and UX designers. Now all of them are applying to work with Foundation and Core devs are reviewing their CV’s, and I’d like to run for NEM position of NEM Foundation Vice President.

Hi Misha, I don’t know you personally, but We talked briefly in some NF channels before you were “removed” in February, I remembered listen to different Nem Foundation Employees about your unprofessional behaviour, but because I don’t know you I can’t judge. As a Council candidate and if I have to work with you, I would like to know with who I have to deal.

Can you list which of this 100 projects you were involved and where are they now?
Can you explain some concerns of community members who were banned in NEM red for asking about your relation with Petro?
Can you share your CV or Linkedin publicily?
Can you explain your contradiction in the interview endorsing Jaguar critics about NF wasting time and money travelling when you did the same at the time?
Are you going to accept the NF poll or the Community poll?
Thanks

[n3lz0n]

the core devs + the team + the community

I would also like to receive an answer to this question.

Nice to see you here! So many new people are joining!

To make sure that you are not a Troll pretending to be a beautiful girl. What’s your name on Telegram? I think I met you on NEMred on Telegram right?

[Anton_B]

Hi Trikar.
You have raised interesting question I thought about as well.

Misha several times mentioned about his famous design studio and some global projects, like in first message of the thread:

“Since 1998 I built design studio and several other related businesses that became world leaders in areas like UX design and cryptographic software protection”

I wondered what kind of studio and projects he talks about, but never names them.

From his profile in linkendin we learn that the company is called Softidentity
http://www.softidentity.com/home.php
All site metrics show that it has been dead for several years, and maybe more.

Match Misha and the company and get information from open sources:
https://zachestnyibiznes.ru/company/ul/1083812001371_3812102587_OOO-SOFTAYDENTITI

From the data it follows that Misha’s company on simplified tax system and has existed since 2008, and not 1998, as Misha said and it looks like his all world projects is not true.

We look further and we notice court cases on taxes.

We go to the website of Federal Bailiff Service, look for the name of the company and find that Misha is many times tax evader. The number of court cases has increased from 2016: https://bit.ly/2SFyHL6
FSSPRUS.RU.pdf (913.8 KB)

If you look even deeper, the court decisions were not executed, because Misha is hiding and simply cannot be found for collection.

So I add my voice to your and wanna to see:
1. The list of over 100 projects
2. The list of businesses that became world leaders in areas like UX design and cryptographic software protection.
3. Why does Misha not pay the taxes of his company and why the bailiffs cannot find Misha and execute court decisions.

P.S. Wanna notice that all the infromation above is from open data source. It took 15 min for finding and everyone can check it.

[r3n3]

Yes! I PM’d you. Happy to squeeze your brain and expertise, Misha.

LuxTag has a Catapult private chain network in production already, run half in the cloud and half on physical machines. We’re working out the anchoring CATAPULT-PRIVATE to NEM-PUBLIC at this moment.

[r3n3]

Denis wanted to get ZEUS tech to KASE (Kazakhstan Stock Exchange) and IFCA (International Financial Center Astana). I was in Kazachstan with Denis and Misha when they introduced ZEUS & NEM there.
Misha was the person who brought NEM into the picture and convinced ZEUS to do the intended projects for KASE and IFCA using the NEM blockchain.

The trips were not paid for by NEM, but in particular that one Kazachstan trip was paid half by LuxTag and half by ZEUS if I remember correctly.
Besides KZ, I know of other businesses and trips of Misha promoting NEM in Cyprus, HK, China, Germany; and projects like mine (LuxTag) were sponsoring Mishas travel expenses.

There was more info on ZEUS published here, too @lady_in_dreams

Crypto Zeus Statement

[granin]

What about the ZEUS exchange you were setting up months ago, is it working?

That was long ago. I keep in touch with them, lately connecting them with some interested parties in Asia. I asked about development couple of weeks ago, and I got to know that regarding exchange launch it happened now only for simplest one of their products, it’s like shapeshift, see it here https://swap.zeus.exchange

PS I hope you’ll agree that I’m late only to this forum, not to the whole NEM party

[granin]

You have raised interesting question I thought about as well.

Hi, Anton, I don’t have an accountant, and as online software, I sometimes it glitches and doesn’t send reports on time, yes I have some unpaid loose change and couple of fines for not submitting routine docs on time. I’ve paid all those multiple payments in the range from $0.36 to $7,54. I have a nice pile of receipts, all my reports for last 7 years of my business, statements from tax inspections for this period and even requested a confirmation that I never was involved in any criminal actions which I’m not at all. I suspect that I’ve got blocked in all of your official Russian and Ukrainian speaking chats because of this but it’s all taken care as of today, and I’ll be happy to share all docs with you or almost anyone to audit.

I am requesting I’m added back to all chats or explained what offense I did to be banned. I am not competing with you guys for your council seats, so let’s move on and do something constructive now.

[granin]

Misha, I think you could actually mention some of the work which kept you busy and not too active in the NEM community in the past months.
Tongokongo is right; you had been rather invisible to the community in the past months. Anyhow, don’t take me wrong - I’m happy to see your comeback to the public community

I have taken some time away from NEM as an official representative, it was a mutual decision, but I never left and have been still working all this time doing. I was extremely busy with quite a few projects, till February I’ve shared a lot about it both with council and community. From March there were just a few projects with deed focus. As I was not in the role of community manager I could dive deep into building concept and architecture for NEM use cases. Some are too early to show, most important one big release is coming soon; it’s NEM blockchain based ecosystem supported by one of highest rated governments that gave us a contract for 25 years to create a special free economic zone for blockchain businesses with 0% taxes and 0% customs fees. Most interesting is my scientific research in the field of blockchain, consensus algorithms and NEM and POI in particular, we all know that this is one thing that holds us back from release of catapult and I hope that I’ll share some results soon, yet for now we still work on it with brightest minds of from academic science.
