Exchange Rate

Mind Blowing:



We all want to become a multi-millionaire and live a better life.

Now, there's an easy way to achieve that.

Forget about the hard-work because Google say's that;

"If you want to become a Multi-millionaire, you'd better to convert/exchange your $100 to Vietnamese dong or if you think you deserve more, try also the Iranian rial." - You'd better to do it now or you will miss the chance of living your dreams.

 


Lesson:
Don't be confused by the huge numbers you are holding,
know its real value or you will be fooled forever.  Wink

Meet "latvian lat" - currency that was replaced with euro in January 1 2014.
Stars: 3

Latvian lats were national currency for almost 100 years, but after the country joined EU, were replaced by euro.
Latvian lats were represented by banknotes:

(Most of the latvians haven't held 500 lat banknote in their hands. I've heard rumors, than once one person tried to pay with 500 lat banknote in some small town in Latvia. The locals thought it was a fake money and called the police Grin)

and coins:

(coins were subdivided into santims. 1 lat = 100 santims).

Funny thing - national bank loved "1 lat" coin so much, so it issued it in 16 options (releasing each year new coin). Doubt that all of them were valued by numismatists, but people stood in queues to get them. It was believed, that Eurobank copied that feature for its "1 euro coins" (each EU country has its own designed 1 euro coin), when it saw 16 different types of "1 lat" coins. (Actually only latvians believe in that)


I personally like latvian lats more than euro. By switching to euro country had lost its personality a bit...

💰💸💸💸💸 THE BROKE TRILLIONAIREs 💸💸💸💸💰

Product: Zimbabwean dollar

Stars: 1

Date: 2015

Size BILL | Style ZIM DOLLAR

Review: In whichever part of the world you go to, being a trillionare should be something that should translate in being financially stable, probably put you in the league of the Jeff's, Bill Gates, the Warren buffett's of this world and many other elites but unfortunately for our friends in Zimbabwe, this was a worthless currency to own that put everyone no one near this path of being considered an elite. The trillionaires country had huge dolar bills such as the 100 trillion dollar that was equivalent to a dollar which could easily push this free fall currency to the top for being the worst currencies ever. If this was a crypto, this could be the mother of shit coins and I advice everyone to stay away!!! Its devs have ditched this boat and no one is in control !!

Those are some strong entries from taikuri13 and Johnyz, welcome to the party pals!  

With the news about Deutsche Bank trending at the moment it could be a fun time to review that particular financial institution  Wink

Don't forget it doesn't just have to be fiat currency that gets reviewed, there's all kinds of fiat backed things to poke fun at: Coins, Cheques, Credit or debit cards, Bank accounts, SWIFT, Wire transfers, Savings accounts, Bank Loans, Mortgages, Inflation, Remittances, Exchange rates, Recessions, and anything else you can think of!

If you get confused you can find full details at the Cloudbet blog

Good luck! Smiley

Philippine Peso

This is the Biggest money in the world, its value right now is around $1800,

But the cost of this money if you want to own it is around $3300.

You can notice that there's a charge of $1500 if you just want to own big money,

who wants to bring an A4 sized money in the market here?

Collectors will do, but this is a clear scam that is government ever made. Cheesy

They can earn more than $1500 if they will just print more money like this.  Grin

The ruble is a terrific currency.

Every year I have more rubles but less money.

The project team is very strange. She convinces users that they need to keep their savings in rubles. But the team keeps their savings in dollars. But everyone should pretend that no one knows about it.

Smart contract also works very unusually.
The project team claims that the value of the ruble does not depend on the price of oil. But everyone knows that this is not true.
If the price of oil falls, the ruble also falls. But the price of gasoline in Russia is growing. It turns out that the price of gasoline in Russia does not depend on the price of oil. This is the Russian paradox - the prices of goods in rubles are always rising. But the project team says it is not true.

In the blockchain, there are strange chains and connections that lead to offshore. Rumor has it that this is a bribe and money laundering. Everyone knows about it, but the project team does not see it.

The ruble, like a drunk husband, falls all the time, but it's native and all love it.

3 stars!

INR (Indian National Rupee)

3 star

Works fine:  If you have in your pocket it belongs to you ,very similar to bitcoin if you have private keys, it is yours.
Hard Forked: One fine morning Indian government find that there might be problem in existing notes and they hard forked .
Counterfeit:  You never know when you get counterfeit one (that is also one of the reason to hardfork it)
Store of Value: There are lot of anonymous "Hodler" of this currency.  It is rumored that lot of holders have money in Swiss bank .
Centralized : Just like XRP.

Remittances (USD)

I bought USD at the Blackmarket last Nov. 5 because its cheap compare to the price in bank for the purpose of remittance.

But in order for me to remit that money, I need bank to do that for me so I deposited it on my account.

The time when I approached the teller, I'm happy because after a long line of waiting finally its my turn to deposit.

Suddenly, the teller tells me the horrifying news that I have to pay for the deposit fee that is almost $50 for buying outside their market.

I was shocked that time, and thinking that I don't really save money from buying at the Blackmarket in fact it cost me more.

and I have to think for another fee for remitting that money directly to my supplier, another service charge that banks collecting from our money.

Only if all the companies are accepting cryptocurrency, maybe we don't need to pay for bigger fees that bank's collecting from us.

Don't use bank's for remitting money it will cost you more and a lot of papers that you need to provide for them to process your request,

better to use cryptocurrency/blockchain technology, its more faster and a lot more cheaper.

Hopefully I win this time... My review is for Japanese Yen:

2 stars - Don't believe the hype.

Had a million but lost it on slots. Doesn't travel well either. Couldn't get it to work outside of the country it was made in. Questionable longevity and long term value prospects. AVOID.

Croatian Kuna - 1 star, high SCAM probability

I think it is easiest to approach this review with comparison to Tether. You know how Tether is supposed to backed with fiat dollars? Well, our national currency is called KUNA (translated to English - marten,  an animal like weasel), we even have a graphic of marten on our coin with denomination of 1. With a little bit of logic we can conclude that Croatian government has decided to back our fiat currency on 1:1 ratio to martens. I am hoping we are talking about live animals here, couldn't find reference anywhere.

I have written numerous times this last year and asked Croatian government to provide the proof that they have a live marten stashed somewhere safe and in humane conditions for every fiat coin they print. My emails have gone unanswered. I can't believe that scam of this portions haven't been included on national news. Only conclusion sane person can make is that all our media channels are 100% controlled by government.

Some evidence:
Pic 1 - Croatian Kuna coin with denomination of 1, linked directly from Bank of Croatia site (expect slow loading due to government outdated infrastructure):


Pic 2 & 3: Random Marten pics



Conclusion:
Stay away from this SCAM project, they didn't have a single audit to confirm marten numbers backing their "fiat" money. You have been warned. Since I have decided to publish this publicly I am now afraid for my life. I suspect I will be forced to leave the county and our Croatian Kuna has zero value after I cross the borders. I am now collecting crypto donations in order to be able to pay for food while on the run.
