Investing in a rich & liquid market (Part 1a)
Tags: Investing, Stock Options, Derivatives, Stock Market

First off, this is not advice nor a recommendation— Do your own research and/or consult with a licensed professional for your personal investments.

This year has been very interesting and a fast forwarded year in the world of financial markets. Anyone that bought any high risk stocks would’ve made a killing. This is a portfolio management 101 technique, where you increase beta weighting to take advantage on a bull market.

But, what happens when QE slows down and the liquidity dries up? Let’s be honest, a lot of us are not good investors or traders, we just happened to buy straight into a colossal bull market this year.

In my upcoming posts I will publish, I will talk in bite-size about stocks I find interesting, how I mitigate risk and trades I enter + recaps.

For now let’s talk about Deutsche Telekom (Ticker: DTE, Global Telecomunications) in a bite sized format. The company makes an enormous annualized revenue of EUR~110b with an EV of ~234b (Market cap of 70b/68% float). The enterprise value is massive due to DTEs large debt (LT + ST), however despite its huge debt, it still trades at an EV/EBITDA of 7.6x — TMobil subsidiary itself should be trading at this multiple, so this sounds cheap.

IMO, for a company of DTE size, I expect it to trade at a multiple of 10.6x or EUR 21 PT.

To take advantage of this, I long 16.8 FEB2021 calls @ 0.05 — This way, I can benefit from the increase in convexity & vega (IV 27%), especially if I expect a PT of 21 (Upside 40% over the next 12 months), we can only assume IV will increase massively as the price moves up.

Lets talk about the downside. This is a far OTM call and I would consider worthless in a ~10% drop. The spread will be wide and difficult to salvage any extrinsic value. On the bright side, it’s cheap with a decent upside and suits my risk appetite.

Further update in January + more stocks.

Scalping makes it easy:

Many traders who love scalping are part-time traders. These are the people who are doing a full-time day job.

And their trading is a sort of multi-tasking process. So a trader is actually doing a lot of things together. and yet this method lets him make small portions of money. And when done a lot of times, it is easier for him to take home big profits. Now since these trades are done on shorter timeframes, 30M seems apt.

Did Santa Come Early this Year?
Tags: Santa Rally, Faang, Options Trading, Optionsswing, Stock Market

How many times have we heard “The Santa rally is coming” this month only to be caught in a choppy market that has option traders gasping for air. This year has been anything but normal which leaves us wondering if the Santa rally came early of it is coming at all. Let us not forget the incredible 10.9% November rally that the S&P had which can be argued happened because all of the good news was being priced in; from positive vaccine data to a promising stimulus package.

Brendan Mcdermid/ Reuters

What is the “Santa Rally”?

Santa Rally refers to the phenomenon that occurs nearly every year which brings a short, sweet but respectable rally the last five days of the year. Problem is, no other year has the market been faced with so much uncertainty. Yes, this market has shown us how resilient it is by rallying to new highs from the March lows but can it sustain at levels considered by analyst to be overbought and overvalued.

Odds favor the Bulls and here is why…

The amount of cash on the sidelines and the Fed’s decision to keep interest levels at nearly zero. Jerome Powell time-after-time continues to throw warnings at the bears letting them know that there is still plenty of led to load the cannons with. Bonds are dead, the dollar is melting down and equities continue to climb despite bearish headlines. New Covid-19 strain, another stall on the Stimulus, and stricter lockdowns; and yet the market continues to break records. The ever lagging Russell has finally broken a decade long resistance and continues to melt faces as it rallies week after week and here we are, waiting for a Santa Rally.

The tape is the best indicator as which direction we are heading; and the tape says up. With smart money betting as high as 3850 for the S&P by the end of the first quarter of 2021 I wouldn’t want to stand in front this moving train.

What will most likely signal that the Santa Rally is happening?

FAANG, FAANG and FAANG; the mega cap market leaders that have been in a deep slumber after hitting their highs back in September. Technical analysis suggest that FAANG is due for a breakout any day now and this will most likely spark the rally.
Decoded: How did a safe-haven asset fuel a stock market crash?

3. The ‘Yen Carry Trade’ in 2008

Going by the definition of carry trades, traders borrow funds in currencies with lower interest rates and invest the proceeds in those with higher rates. Hence, the primary reason for borrowing in Yen and investing in the US was the interest rate differential. Japan had very low interest rates during the first decade of this century whereas the US had higher. This allowed the traders to borrow money at cheaper rates and invest in markets with higher ones, thus allowing them to earn profits at virtually no risks (but not forever!). Confusing, right?!

A simplified example of the YCT-

Let’s say Mr. X is a trader for an investment bank based out of Wall Street. In the year 2002, he sees the interest rate disparity between Japan and the US. So he borrows money in Yen at hypothetically 1% interest rate and invests in US’ Treasury Bills that yield hypothetically 5% for the same period. This allows the trader to earn a risk free return of 4%, assuming no currency movements for the sake of simplicity. Now, the trader realizes that instead of sticking to the US T-Bills that yield 5%, he could invest in risky mortgage bonds, that hypothetically provide returns of around 15%, for the same 1% loan in Yen. This allows the trader to earn a risk-free rate of 14% against the 4% in case of T-Bills.

Again, why was the trader able to earn returns in excess of his loan interest rate? Simply because there was a vast difference in rates in the US and Japanese markets, which eventually got reflected in every possible security, right from government bonds to risky mortgage bonds. And why do we say ‘risk-free return’ for T-Bills? Because the US government never defaults.

So, what was Yen’s role in the market crash?

The 14% risk-free return is based on the assumption that the risky Mortgage bonds do not default. But what if they did? Or, what if the interest rate differential between the US and Japan came down to 0%?

This is exactly what happened!

The risky bonds started to default and the US Fed reduced interest rates in a span of months. So due to defaults and no risk-free return for traders raising funds in Yen, they started selling off their investments in mortgage bonds and later in T-bills & equity markets. This led to a ripple effect, causing more and more traders to square off their positions and dump their shares/bonds into the markets, leading to one of the greatest market crashes ever!

Tags: Millennials, Empathy, CEO, Generosity, Stock Market

Happy Holidays Everyone ! I hope you are all safe and warm and healthy this Christmas ! I want to take a moment on behalf of all struggling New Yorkers, during this very difficult time ,to thank both Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg for their generous holiday tips to restaurant service workers this December. And of course a wonderful thank you to Dolly Parton for her donation for our health .

It would be wonderful if this continued with other people in industries who make an excellent living. Here are a few examples that may be of help.

How bout for the Stock Brokers who get a huge bonus every year — they choose six or seven Stock Boys or Grocery or Drug Store workers to give it to , the Essential Workers that serviced them since March.

How bout the CEO ‘s who approve their own raise , and what they get, give to thirteen to sixteen OSW (Older Single Women )and OSM (Older Single Men) that through the years have been laid off due to Downsizing

For any of the 1%’s how about choosing a Senior Center or Community Center , asking them to provide a list of members and volunteers and make an appointment to come in with your checkbook.

For those people who have the funds and the the moral mind of generosity , those who knew how to make the income in the first place , would certainly have the intelligent and creative mind to know where their contribution would do the most good.

And you know, also when you find in yourself something you can do or give or be part of ,you bind yourself to others , you also Find Love.

To all those giving, or receiving , or witnessing , I wish you love.

As always , from Renaissance P.O.P. Find Love
Investing in your future.

Alright, we have all done it. Wasted money on things that don’t mean much the next day, the next week or year.

I’m talking to us millennials who have spent many nights out with our friends, buying yet another dress, shirt or shoes and eating out as few times a week.

If only I knew the power of investing 15 years ago. You hear it now, if you started investing when you were 25 you’d be a millionaire by x or x.

Yep. If only I had!

But, it’s not too late. Starting today is better than not. So good steps:
Bitcoin touches $25,000 and Shows No Signs of Slowing Down
Tags: Bitcoin, Cryptocurrency, Crypto, Bitcoin Mining, Stock Market

Bitcoin is trading at 24,880.40 United States Dollar at the time of writing this article and it is anticipated that the cryptocurrency will jump over US$25,000 anytime in the next few hours. We initially anticipated price jumping over the $20k barrier in December but nobody predicted price to touch and go beyond US$25,000.

In the span of the last thirty days, Bitcoin’s price has surged high to the highest ever point in its history.

It seems like, with this pace, Bitcoin could well hit US$100,000 by 20201. This is a huge task for regulators to battle it out and keep the price in check.

Many investors still believe Bitcoin is irrelevant and it’s a Bubble. Regardless of what people think in for or against Bitcoin, there’s a clear difference in the pattern of 2017 and 2020.

Puppet: Writing simple manifests
By: Rajeev Ghosh
Tags: Automation, Iaac, Puppet, Infra As Code, Infrastructure As Code

In my previous article, I wrote about how to build a puppet Master-client infrastructure.

In this article, we are going to learn how to write simple manifest to create “a user.”

Introduction to Puppet:

“Puppet is a Configuration Management tool that is used for deploying, configuring and managing servers.” Puppet uses a Master Slave architecture in which the Master and Slave communicate through a secure encrypted channel with the help of SSL.

Scenario 1: Steps to create a user in all the servers ( That includes puppet master and client servers):

Please change to “/etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/manifests” on your Puppet -Master server. You will see something like below:

2. Now open site.pp in your text editor and modify it to look something like below:

3. Run “puppet parser validate site.pp” command to check if there’s any syntax error.

4. Run “puppet apply — noop site.pp” command to run it in Dry-run mode.(Note: It will not perform the actual user creation).

5. Now run “ puppet apply site.pp” to perform actual user creation.

6. Validate if the user has been created on “Puppet-Master” server.

7. Now go to the client server and run below command.

puppet agent -t -d

This command will fetch required details from puppet master and perform the user creation on puppet-client.

8. Now validate that the user “abhi” has been created on puppet client:

That’s it. The user has been created on both Puppet-Master and puppet client.

Scenario 2: Steps to create a user in specific nodes only:

On puppet master : Modify the site.pp to look like below.

This manifest will create user only on Puppet-Client server called “node1.unixlab.com”.

2. Once you have modified the site.pp file, run below commands on Puppet Master server:

puppet parser validate site.pp puppet apply — noop site.pp

3. You will see, the user called rahul doesn’t exist on Puppet-Master server:

4. Now login to Puppet Client server and run below command:

puppet agent -t

5. You will see, the user “rahul” has been created on “puppet-client”.

We are all set.

Configure Hadoop and start cluster services using Ansible Playbook !!
By: Shashwat Singh
Tags: Ansible Playbook, Hadoop, Automation

First We Need to create an inventory file where ansible could know that these are the IP’s of Target Nodes.

Inventory file means it contains IP’s of Target Node with authentications . Where we give IP’s Of Master as well as Slave Nodes….

Inventory File

Master Configure

1> First We will transfer the Software’s to the Target Node then we are going to install…

Before Installing First we also check is that Software is installed or not becoz the there is no module in Ansible is made to for the setup or install the Hadoop Software (due to Extra keyword used i.e — force the Hadoop and the Module which we are using i.e Command it not support the idempotent of the ansible ….

- hosts: master



vars_prompt:



- name: fold_name_hadoop_master

private: no

prompt: "Enter the Name for your master Folder ?" - name: port_num_for_hdfs

private: no

prompt: "Give the Port Num for the Master Service ?" tasks:



- name: "Transfering the SOftware Hadoop !!"

copy:

dest: "/root/hadoop-1.2.1-1.x86_64.rpm"

src: hadoop-1.2.1-1.x86_64.rpm



- name: "Transfering the Software Java !!"

copy:

dest: "/root/jdk-8u171-linux-x64.rpm"

src: jdk-8u171-linux-x64.rpm - name: "Checking that Hadoop is INstalled or NOt !!"

command: "rpm -q hadoop"

register: hadoop

ignore_errors: yes - name: "CHecking the Java is Installed or Not !!"

command: "java -version"

register: java

ignore_errors: yes - name: "Installing the JAVA !!"

command: "rpm -ivh jdk-8u171-linux-x64.rpm"

ignore_errors: yes

when: java.rc != 0 - name: "Imstalling the Hadoop !!"

command: "rpm -ivh hadoop-1.2.1-1.x86_64.rpm --force"

ignore_errors: yes

when: hadoop.rc != 0

Now we need make an folder to the master node so that slave nodes can share there storage through it and some meta data save into it and we need to configure the Configuration Files like:

→ hdfs-site.xml

→ core-site.xml

- name: "Configuring the Conf file hdfs-site.xml !!"

blockinfile:

path: "/etc/hadoop/hdfs-site.xml"

insertafter: "<configuration>"

block: |

<property>

<name>dfs.name.dir</name>

<value> {{fold_name_hadoop_master}}</value>

</property>



- name: "Configuring the Conf file core-site.xml !!"

blockinfile:

path: "/etc/hadoop/core-site.xml"

insertafter: "<configuration>"

block: |

<property>

<name>fs.default.name</name>

<value> hdfs://0.0.0.0:{{port_num_for_hdfs}} </value>

</property> - name: "Creating the DIr in the Master NOde !!"

file:

state: directory

path: "//{{fold_name_hadoop_master}}"

Then we need to format that folder for the first time and then we will run the service according the given port from the user…

- name: "Formating that Directory !!"

shell: "echo Y | hadoop namenode -format" - name: "Starting the Service !!"

command: "hadoop-daemon.sh start namenode"

By the same steps we can configure the Slave Node Too… only one thing we need use our brain to capture the IP of the Master Node on the fly by the help of the facts variable…

{{groups[‘slave’][0]}}

Hence Configured 😎….

Configure load balancer and webserver using Ansible ROLE
By: Ankush Chavan
Tags: Web Development, Automation, DevOps, Ansible, Load Balancing

This article will teach how to configure a Loadbalancer using HAProxy software and configure the web server using Ansible.

Ansible is a configuration management tool and HAProxy is a software that provides a high availability load balancer and proxy server for TCP and HTTP-based applications that spread requests across multiple servers.

Prerequisites:

Basic knowledge of AWS and Ansible. Basic knowledge of the Load Balancer.

We will launch some servers and make one of the servers a load balancer and tag it as a load balancer. And all of the other servers will become webservers. After that, we will add the IP address of these servers to the inventory and group them according to the tags. All of the webserver IPs are grouped to form one group of web servers and the IPs of loadbalacers are grouped to form a group of load balancers.

For doing implementing this use case, we required two ROLES. One is the webserver ROLE that will configure the web server on the IP addresses tagged as webservers and another is the HAProxy ROLE that will configure the load balancer in the IP addresses tagged as the load balancer.

If you don’t know what is the Ansible ROLE and how to create it then refer to this article where I had explained how to create the ROLES in ansible and I had shown how to create a webserver and haproxy ROLE.

Creating webserver ROLE

Creating haproxy ROLE

Step 1: Creating Ansible-Playbook using a webserver and haproxy ROLES

By now, we have a webserver and haproxy roles ready. So, let’s create an ansible-playbook using these roles.

$ vim web.yml

The playbook above will run the haproxy ROLE on the hosts that are grouped as a loadbalancer and the webserver ROLE on the hosts that are grouped as apache_webserver.

Step 2: Add the IP addresses of the webserver and loadbalacner hosts to the inventory

Let’s go to the ansible inventory file and add the IP addresses of the webserver and loadbalancer hosts to the ansible inventory.

Step 3: Run the playbook

Now, run the playbook with the webserver and haproxy ROLE and check if everything works fine.

Step 4: Check if the website is accessible

As we had configured the load balancer, we can the website using the load balancer IP and the load balancer will automatically balance the load among the available servers and shows the website to us.

We simply have to go to the IP of the loadbalancer on the port 8080.

The URL will be LOAD_BALANCER_PUBLIC_IP:8080/home.html

The image above shows that the website is accessible through the load balancer IP. So, everything we had configured is working fine.

That’s it for this article!
Ansible Use Case
By: Chirag Nagori
Tags: Automation, It, Ansible Use Case, Ansible, It Companies

This blog tells you “How the IT world use Ansible” . So let’s start…

What is Ansible ?

Ansible is an open-source software provisioning, configuration management, and application-deployment tool enabling infrastructure as code. It runs on many Unix-like systems, and can configure both Unix-like systems as well as Microsoft Windows. It includes its own declarative language to describe system configuration.

Use Case of Ansible

HOOTSUITE

Hootsuite is a social media management system used by businesses and organizations. It allows the execution of social media campaigns on a variety of networks from a secure dashboard. Hootsuite is popular among Fortune 1000 companies.

The main challenge facing Hootsuite was the lack of repeatability. This made automating Hootsuite’s infrastructure a challenge, and Hootsuite were also facing difficulties in application deployment.

To resolve this, Hootsuite introduced Ansible core. This allowed Hootsuite to build servers from scratch and enabled repeatability. In the future, Hootsuite plans to implement an Ansible migration of its app deployment and possibly in ad hoc production server management.

Since performing their Ansible migration, Hootsuite says ops and devs ‘feel safer’. Additionally, Ansible allows developers to repeatedly test server builds on a local level until the team can be sure they work.

Hootsuite intends to use Ansible in many other ways, and as Beier Cai, Director of Technology, Hootsuite Media Inc., explains, “In the beginning I didn’t realize Ansible is good for orchestration as well but found it out quickly and I really loved it as it beats competitors right there.”

AMELCO

Amelco is a UK-based company that develops software solutions for the betting industry and financial betting markets. The business was looking for a way to deploy its applications efficiently across its hundreds of different environments, and it also sought to limit downtime. To do this, Amelco performed an Ansible migration to an agentless automation framework. This reduced the complexities it faced with the deployment, operations and the upgrade of applications over a range of contrasting locations, while also using one simplified language.

In addition, by introducing Ansible and Ansible Tower, Amelco has successfully automated its application deployments. Other benefits include reduced complexity and continuous delivery, along with speed solution delivery.

Further benefits include:

“Faster time to deployment for its bespoke and modular client solutions, resulting in speedier time to market and higher customer satisfaction”.

“A simplified and repeatable deployment process, leveraging true multi-tier, multi-step orchestration that minimized the complex dependencies of heterogeneous environments,”.

are you one of the windows user who’s disk space is soon approaching its 100% capacity and you are not sure which files to delete?.

don’t worry even i was in same situation until i found a freeware that helped me identify files occupying disk and helped me reduce the disk space usage.

download freeware from https://www.jam-software.com/treesize_free

once you run the software it will ask you for drive to scan:

under select directory chose an troubling drive:

it will ask you to restart the software as admin to access all folders. accept it.

once it restart, it will show you all the folders and files that are occupying most of the disk space in a gui format from which you can analyze folders and delete required folders.

Kubernetes: the story of innovation

What is Kubernetes?

Kubernetes, also known as K8s, is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. Kubernetes progressively rolls out changes to your application or its configuration, while monitoring application health to ensure it doesn’t kill all your instances at the same time. If something goes wrong, Kubernetes will rollback the change for you. Take advantage of a growing ecosystem of deployment solutions.

Use cases

babylon

The story of Babylon unfurls as one of the greatest tales of innovation in the Medical AI sector supported by the Kubernetes framework. A large number of Babylon’s product use machine learning models, however the in-house computing power was fairly inadequate to sustain large scale experimentation.

This called for automation in the terms of application of Kubeflow, a tool of Kubernetes used for deploying machine learning models. This caused landmark changes in terms of service. Client validation came in faster and it was no longer required to wait for hours to be able to deploy computation.

Based on that experience, Vallée’s team was tasked with building a self-service platform to help Babylon’s AI teams become more efficient, and by extension help get products to market faster. The main requirements: (1) the ability to give researchers and engineers access to the compute they needed, regardless of the size of the experiments they may need to run; (2) a way to provide teams with the best tools that they needed to do their work, on demand and in a centralized way; and (3) the training platform had to be close to the data that was being managed, because of the company’s expansion into different countries.

Once the team decided to build the Babylon AI Research platform on top of Kubernetes, they referred to the Cloud Native Landscape to build out the stack: Prometheus and Grafana for monitoring; an Istio service mesh to control the network on the training platform and control what access all of the workflows would have; Helm to deploy the stack; and Flux to manage the GitOps part of the pipeline.
Configuring reverse proxy with Ansible and also updating HAProxy conf file each time new node join inventory
Tags: Automation, Apache, Apache Server, Haproxy, Ansible

This blog is about how we can Configuring Reverse Proxy i.e. Haproxy and updating it’s configuration file automatically on each time new Managed node (Configured With Apache Webserver) join the inventory.

So What HAProxy actually is..?

HAProxy is free, open source software that provides a high availability load balancer and proxy server for TCP and HTTP-based applications that spreads requests across multiple servers. It is written in C and has a reputation for being fast and efficient (in terms of processor and memory usage).

🔹First we have to update the Ip addresses in Inventory file(#vim /root/ip.txt) of controller node on which we want to configure something.

🔹Ansible Configuration file

In this file have to update Inventory file location .The path of file is #vim /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg.

Now check the connectivity of Managed Nodes with Controller Node.

#ansible all -m ping all command is used to check the connectivity.

Now we see our Ansible Playbook

🔹Ansible playbook

host: load_balancer ➯ For Load balancer

host: b_server ➯ For Backend server

🔹HAProxy file configuration

🔹 Running Playbook

Now we are done with the Controller node configuration..!!

Lets check it manually on managed node.

🔹Managed node

Lets have a look of what we configured actually.

Load balancer:-

⭐HAproxy service started⭐

⭐HAproxy config file⭐

here you could see that this file is dynamically updated with the Ip of the Backend server.

🔹checking on browser

Now we can add as many new instances as managed nodes to configure them as a backend servers by just updating their IP’s to the inventory file and dynamically it will update it to the configuration file of haproxy.

So let’s configure one more backend server as a apache httpd webserver with the same webpage by just adding its IP i.e 192.168.43.101 to the inventory file.

Now Ping again ,just to confirm that new instance is pinging or not

Now we just have to run the playbook again and thats it.

This server is launched successfully.

Lets check whether this Backend server is updated in Haproxy file of loadbalancer or not.

🔹Checking haproxy config file

🔹Finally ..lets check both the servers on browser.

Hence verified..!!

✨Loadbalancer is working very fine…✨

How To Automate Searching For The Target Audience For User Interview
By: Mykhailo Glodian
Tags: Automation, User Interviews, Custdev, Customer Development, User Insight

Parsing group members

I had several Slack groups where my potential target audience was hanging out.

I selected one group and took it to Slack Channel User Extractor

1.The Extractor asks to give a cookie from Slack. To do that click Get Cookie from Slack. After the first click, you’ll be offered to add a browser extension. Add and click the Get Cookie from Slack button again.

2. Put a workspace link

3. Add a link to the spreadsheet containing the list of channels you’re going to parse. It looks like this:

* Make this spreadsheet public so Phantombuster can access it.

4,5,6. The name of the column from the previous spread, the number of lines per launch, and the number of users to parse (leave empty to parse all at once)

7. Enter the file name and click Save

8. On the next screen select Manually & Save

9. Notifications settings are up to you. I always chose this:

Click Save

10. Go to this Phantom and click Launch

11. Download the completed file

12. Open the file in Google Spreadsheet. Now we will work with this document.

🔥Tip # 1

The first thing I recommend is to exclude admins, so not to get in trouble.

🔥Tip # 2

Some groups even provide you with an email list. Using this list, you can create a custom or lookalike audience, for example in Facebook Ads Manager.

The 5 Benefits of Having an Access Control System (ACS) in Your Building
By: Aitor Alonso
Tags: Real Estate, Proptech, Internet of Things, Technology, IoT

1. Touchless Entry

Whether the access card is in plastic format or tied to your phone, there is no physical contact of any kind during the process. By tapping on the reader we avoid exposure to potentially contagious bacteria that could affect the whole building population.

2. Monitor Busy Hours

With users coming in and out of the building, there will be times when a crowd might be arriving all at once. Monitoring the average number of entries by hour of day will allow reception to ensure sufficient supervision of the busiest entrances to the building, adding an extra layer of security.

3. Automate Roles and Permissions

The peace of mind that comes with a fully connected and automated ACS is undeniable. Creating, granting, restricting and managing user groups and accesses in one platform has become the norm in building management. This may be, of course, a little complicated to set up, but it rewards you with the most efficient approach to a well-managed space shared by both tenants and facility managers.

4. Reduce Energy Consumption

There are countless options in the market to integrate with third-party energy efficiency services, and this is where the potential of an ACS truly shines through. Think about an office building (or a gym in a co-living space) where we are monitoring the users onsite in real time. When patterns of space usage show no users at a specific time, property managers can schedule light and heating/cooling systems to be turned off. Achieving high energy efficiency by performing these actions can really make a difference in driving cost savings.

5. Replace Plastic Cards with Phone Access

Plastic building access cards suffer many mishaps and are one of the biggest headaches of office managers and receptionists. Lost, stolen, broken, forgotten, damaged… are some of the most typical words heard when talking about plastic access cards. Their reliability is questionable and nowadays they are fully replaceable by our phones, an item we never leave the house without. Tenant Experience Platforms like Spaceflow allow building owners to connect the whole ecosystem of buildings into one app, which maximizes the potential of an ACS as well as offering multiple other unique features, such as an amenity booking system and facility issue reporting system.

10 IoT Use Cases in the Retail Industry

Several essential use cases of IoT in the retail industry.

1. Customer Satisfaction Monitoring

Various retailers have started utilizing the IoT technology to enhance the experience of the customers. You can also include IoT sensors or dashboard to get direct customer feedback after their purchase.

Moreover, the deeper a store knows the desires of its customers, the more exciting items a store can present to its customers. Ultimately, it helps a store to offer more value to customers and enhance sales.

2. Smart Shelves for Inventory & Supply Chain Management

Various small to medium-scale retail store owners use IoT to enhance their inventory management. Due to this, employees don’t need to inquire about stock & product kept in shelves now & then.

You can also integrate smart shelves in your store to get quick notifications & updates about the sales levels.

3. Capturing Photos of Barcodes

Barcodes have become essential to provide in-depth information about any product. One of the latest examples of this is PUMA, the world’s leading sportswear manufacturer collaborated with EVRYTHNG to enable customers in the New York flagship store to capture photos of barcodes present in the shoes to obtain more details regarding every shoe.

4. Automated Checkout

Various customers don’t like to wait in a big waiting line at your retail store. To resolve this, you need to hire more employees and integrate various systems, which is pricey.

To get over this, you can use a machine that does the work of a checkout cashier. Also, this checkout system verifies all the items with the customer and deducts the total as soon as the customer leaves the store.

Hainan Government chooses MXC for Green Smart City Initiative
By: Mxc Official
Tags: Blockchain, Mxc Foundation, Crypto, China, IoT

Hainan is swarming with unspoiled nature and stays true to both its natural and ethical nature. Hainan is separate from Chinas mainland, which gives it a unique appeal, teeming with forests and beautiful beaches. In order to preserve their natural haven, the green Smart City initiative will see MXC and Huawei Tech working together to roll out a series of smart lighting solutions for Hainan, with an initial focus on the government district of FullSing Town. Smart lighting solutions will not only make the city greener and more inviting, it also has the potential to boost the tourism industry.

In a pledge of full support, the Hainan government has agreed to invest in MXC Foundation and to further support MXC Foundation and Huawei with technology and external aid. One of the noticeable parts about this initiative is that working with the Hainan government allows the MXC Foundation to gain valuable access to the government’s expansive network — including key corporations such as Alibaba.

Why is smart lighting necessary?

Smart lighting predicts the foot traffic flow of the people, enabling the government to allocate its lighting resources more efficiently. Which, in turn, saves costs and reduces pollution. From a social standpoint, well-lit areas are much more welcoming and safer. This can motivate members of the public to walk to an event for example, or, to feel safer walking from home. All of these people that will now choose to walk home due to smart lighting can reduce the pollution in Hainan.

“MXC is not only connecting smart devices, we connect people! By working together with Huawei Tech and the honorable Hainan Government we are connecting data to improve the lives of citizens and improve environmental conditions for generations to come”. Aaron Wagener, Co-Founder of MXC

The Government of Hainan chooses MXC and Huawei Tech

MXC’s vast, scalable LPWAN network and the reach in the region make both MXC and Huawei an attractive match to tackle the issue. MXC has been generating impetus with the M2 Pro miner, which provides cryptocurrency incentives for anyone to provide LPWAN coverage in their region and to become a part of a substantial data network. This innovative, smart lighting solution will begin taking its course in 2021 but the preparation has already begun. The Government of Hainan will further provide support to MXC by providing both financial and technical support as well as connecting MXC to other giants within the nation.

As an MXC miner, what can you expect?

Miners can expect to see a surge in demand for their network that has the potential to further their earnings. Meanwhile, MXC token holders can see a rise in demand for the MXC token and look forward to future partnerships with the support of the Hainan government.
