    Data center as a Investment

    Maybe you should invest in ipv4 ranges, think of them like houses you rent. But maybe not, maybe ipv6 will take over ;)

    Hungary AML KYC Banks

    Who knows, reminds me of one polish bank, I have 6 years old document there that I haven't updated, every year they send me mail to update or that they'll suspend my account. Nothing happened, yet.

    Identity theft EU

    You should get a new passport and never hand your passport to anyone, but if you travel through EU (especially Italy) or countries like Georgia or Ukraine and book hotels or rent cars. Almost every single of them scans your passport and who knows what tf they do with it. They are so obsessed...

    Sending stuff from EU to Russia

    I have recently received a shipment from Russia to EU, it went through state owned post. Not sure how they got it there, from Moscow to here, however the customs for some reason sent it back, again through normal post. Each direction took about a month. Not quite sure why the customs returned...

    Silicon Valley Bank scrambles to reassure clients after 60% stock wipe-out

    The whole US banking sector is rotten, and EU isn't doing much better. Think Wirecard 2.0. Sketchy s**t that is happening.

    Where do I pay tax if I don't live 183 days in any country in a calendar year?

    Well.... as far as I know you really are always obligated to pay tax to a country you are a citizen of if you don't spend in any country more than 183 days and you aren't tax resident anywhere else. That's it for most of EU Countries. If you do spend somewhere more than 183 days, then you'll...

    Anyone had experience with the new "Paraguay Temporary Residency" procedure?

    How'd you solve proof of address in Paraguay? Do you just give them a paper? How does that work? Also is it doable to do it all by yourself, considering one knows Spanish or would you recommend hiring a local lawyer for that? Still am considering taking a trip there this Summer.

    Moving to a country with very high tax. Can I use assistance from my parents and take advantage of the low gift tax to pay less tax on my crypto?

    I think each country treats this somewhat differently. However I think yes. That should work. You probably don't want to send the stable coins to yourself, it should probably be your parents crypto-wallet, which they for some reason probably lose their private keys to. However you also mention...

    slight paranoia. :)

    I wonder if any of you too and how do you handle it? I wouldn't say it's unjustified or delusional, if you know what I mean. I just am slightly scared of everything and everyone. I'm relatively young and in my early 20s and I have developed such a complex structure in the last few years and I...

    Moving to a country with very high tax. Can I use assistance from my parents and take advantage of the low gift tax to pay less tax on my crypto?

    I'm strongly anti-KYC and hodl for life type of guy, but besides of that, I think that yes it should work. I'd say just make sure to use theirs document and their bank acc to cash out.

    Hidden/unknown gems where the rich people stay in Europe

    I have experience with Portugal or Prague, some elites settle in Switzerland. Luxembourg comes to mind as well. For vacations, Greece or Croatian coastline. But as others have said, it's very subjective. I wouldn't give my personal experience much value.

    Permanent residency in Paraguay

    Proof of balance is not required too? I heard they want either that or that. I'm not sure what do they consider as proof whether I have sufficient amount of money elsewhere. Thanks

    Verifo EMI asking for source of funds for 50 EUR

    It is indeed disgusting and sad. Regardless of red flags.

    Permanent residency in Paraguay

    Lots of people getting these from Europe. Territorial taxation and as a Plan B + additional documents. The process seems pretty straight forward. If you have EU-University degree initial €5000 deposit is not even required. I wonder what the catch is? I suppose the problems might be with opening...
