I'm raising $10,000 for the covered call crypto fund. For the past several years I've been trading and investing in crypto with mixed success. I've made my gains and taken my losses.  Covered Calls with crypto have been one of the hardest to learn -and I'm still learning. Over the years I've realized - making money in a growing market isn't hard - preserving and growing in a bear market is much harder. But possible. Hedging with futures makes it possible. At some point, it can get tricky,…

Both properties are planned to sell for a profit once fully acquired. Tbilisi apartment could be…

And unlike most of the other bids, this was one of the easiest bids, We were just two bidders, the second bidder had entered the bid a few days earlier and probably forgot to bid today, as my bid was just the second highest. In the past I've bought already one apartment using this platform, see: Today I bought my first flat on an online…

For the past several years I've been actively involved in the crypto sphere - building mining rigs, flipping altcoins, buying low - selling high (sometimes vice versa), trading crypto derivatives, exploring smart contracts, launching tokens, and now considering launching Tbilisi real estate as NFT on the blockchain. For most of the time I've been sharing my notes on my blog, the one you are currently reading, but lately, I feel I want to take it to another level - making investment and trading…

On November 17, 2022, together with a partner from Canada, we secured our first co-investment in Georgia - a 47m2 apartment under construction in Tbilisi. Looking to put it on blockchain next. Exploring NFT. Long story short, back in April 2022, while vacationing in Batumi, I come up with an idea - investing in booming Batumi real estate by attracting crypto investments. Original idea was to issue a crypto token, raise the funds, purchase the apartment under construction and sell it for profit…
