NEW MONEY
New ideas and technologies are creating new payments systems and new forms of currencies that will completely change the way we make financial transactions,
And as more people choose (or are forced) to use these new currencies, paper bills and coins may become a thing of the past.

      The principal element of Suprematism in painting, as in architecture, is its liberation from all social or materialist tendencies. Through Suprematism, art comes into its pure and unpolluted form. I think if you do something and it turns out pretty good, then you should go do something else wonderful, not dwell on it for too long.

      We were just building stuff 'cause we thought it was cool. I do remember having these specific conversations with my friends where we thought, you know, someone is gonna build this. Someone is gonna build something that makes it so that people can stay connected with their friends and their family. The product helped us to develop new directions in or brand strategy, to attract new customers and buyers. We started 3 years ago and got the top in Business One rating system. A great honour! Let us be honest, we could try to get same result attracting third-party specialists, but we had best luck to be in a boat with Elestory team!
