Who Is Artur Grandi Uncovering the Mind Fueling a Global Financial Rethink

Published

on

Curious about the man behind the movement, we launched an independent investigation—and what we uncovered was both unexpected and compelling.

When Grand Time was released in 2023, few anticipated the wave of attention it would generate. The book rapidly climbed bestseller lists and began circulating in high-level conversations among investors, futurists, and technologists across Silicon Valley—home to innovators like Apple, Tesla, and Meta. Its author, Artur Grandi, lays out a bold, human-centered economic vision that directly challenges the foundations of today’s financial system.

So who is Artur Grandi—and why is his message striking such a chord?

From Sochi to Silicon Valley

Born in 1974 in the resort city of Sochi, Russia, Artur Grandi was originally known as Artur Zeitunian. In 1991, he enrolled at Rostov State Transport University, where he earned a degree in economics before returning to Sochi to launch his career as an entrepreneur.

His early work focused on improving local living conditions. First, he took over his father’s stake in a real estate firm, then launched several ventures aimed at addressing civic and infrastructure issues. In 1997, he assumed a leadership role in AO Sfera, a joint-stock company managing residential properties. At the time, the company was involved in a legal dispute over unauthorized apartment occupancy. In a widely publicized decision, Zeitunian refused to evict the residents, stating:

“If these people have even a 1% legal claim to this housing, we should let them stay.”

As a result, more than 30 families became legal homeowners—an uncommon gesture of goodwill in Russia’s post-Soviet business landscape.

Building a Business Empire

In 1998, Zeitunian founded his first company, SochiGrandStroy LLC, which focused on modernizing the city’s infrastructure and public services. Over the next decade, he expanded into multiple sectors:

  • In 2005, he launched Chisty Dvorik (“Clean Courtyard”), focused on sanitation and environmental services.
  • That same year, he founded REO-16, which managed residential buildings and public utilities.
  • In 2006, he moved into construction and raw materials extraction.
  • By 2008, he owned the property management firm BIC and co-owned a company specializing in building materials and plumbing supplies.

Zeitunian’s vision consistently blended entrepreneurship with a civic-minded purpose, reflecting his long-standing belief that business should serve the public good.

Philanthropy and Civic Legacy

Beyond business, Zeitunian was deeply involved in community development. He created a youth football club, Sochi Riviera, which still operates today and ranks highly in regional competitions. He also funded a free city newspaper, Sochi Boulevard, which provided public service announcements and local news to residents.

A devout supporter of both the Armenian and Orthodox Christian communities, he financed church construction and maintained close ties with local clergy. It was during these years that his financial philosophy began to take shape—rooted in dignity, inclusion, and systemic transformation.

Collapse and Reinvention

In 2009, SochiGrandStroy—then a major utility provider—was declared bankrupt. The company owed approximately 200 million rubles (around $2.5 million), but was itself owed more than 1.3 billion rubles (approximately $16.5 million) by the city administration. A legal battle ensued and stretched over nearly eight years. Despite independent audits confirming the city’s debts, the courts ultimately ruled against the company.

Following the collapse, Zeitunian moved to Moscow and launched a nonprofit, Support for Honest Entrepreneurs, which remains active today in the software and telecommunications space. The legal and political fallout prompted a dramatic shift: he emigrated to California, adopted the name Artur Grandi, and began planting the seeds for what would become Grand Time.

The Grand Time Vision

Over the next six years, Grandi immersed himself in Silicon Valley’s startup and investment ecosystem. He studied financial structures, venture capital trends, and macroeconomic models—and came to a sobering conclusion: the current system is fundamentally unsustainable.

In 2023, he published Grand Time, a manifesto for a new economic paradigm. Its core ideas include:

  • Money should serve people—not the other way around.
  • Every person deserves financial security.
  • Daily human activity creates value—and that value should be compensated.

Written in plain, accessible language, Grand Time lays out a framework for a more equitable future—one not dependent on governments, centralized capital, or violent upheaval. Instead, it imagines an economy driven by technology, community action, and moral clarity.

A Growing Global Movement

Grandi’s ideas have inspired a rapidly expanding movement. A foundation has been established to promote equitable resource distribution, and the first digital assets—Grand tokens—have already launched. These tokens are designed to serve as the foundation of a new financial model grounded in transparency, inclusion, and shared prosperity.

“We’re not here to overthrow the system,” Grandi says. “We’re here to humanize it.”

Whether Grand Time evolves into a catalyst for global reform or remains a visionary outlier is yet to be seen. But one thing is clear: Artur Grandi is no longer just a name on a book cover. He’s emerging as a serious voice in the growing conversation about the future of money.

BlockBits Launches a Futures Trading Service, Offering Traders a Wide Range of Advanced Tools

Published

3 hours ago

on

July 14, 2025

By

Dubai, UAE – 14/07/2025 – (SeaPRwire) – BlockBits, crypto futures trading platform, launch a new tool for advanced futures trading for higher potential returns with up to 200x leverage.

As cryptocurrency markets mature and price swings become more extreme, active traders are increasingly turning to risk management strategies once reserved for traditional finance. One strategy gaining notable traction is hedging – protecting open positions by opening an opposing trade to balance potential losses.

Unlike in stocks or commodities, hedging in crypto has only recently become practical for a wider range of traders. With the expansion of futures and perpetual contracts, traders can now offset price movements without selling or transferring their core holdings – a key advantage for long-term investors facing short-term market uncertainty.

“For example, a trader holding a major crypto asset can hedge against sudden volatility by opening a short futures position. If the asset’s price drops, gains from the short can help offset losses on the original holding – providing greater peace of mind in unpredictable conditions”, – said in company.

Recognizing this growing need, several crypto exchanges are now integrating built-in hedging tools. Features such as the ability to hold both long and short positions on the same pair within a single account are making once-complex strategies more accessible. This is especially important for traders using high leverage or delta-neutral approaches, where profits and losses on opposite positions can balance each other out.

Such tools also reduce trading costs by avoiding the need to close and reopen positions repeatedly – a process that can rack up fees and slippage in fast-moving markets. A smoother, single-interface experience means traders can react faster to market shifts without interrupting their broader investment plans.

One platform at the forefront of this trend is BlockBits, which has designed its trading environment specifically with hedging in mind. Users can open long and short positions simultaneously on the same pair, track risk and margin separately, and monitor real-time profit/loss and liquidation levels across both sides. In a recent example with the ETH/USDT pair, BlockBits traders were able to hold dual up to 200× leverage positions – a feature not always offered by other exchanges.

By integrating hedging into the core trading interface, platforms like BlockBits are helping crypto derivatives mature – providing tools that cater to both aggressive trading and robust risk management. As more traders seek to balance exposure without sacrificing opportunity, such innovations are set to become a standard part of the crypto futures landscape.

By

Synthetic Darwin™ is launching its self-evolving AI utility token $DARWIN on Solana on July 15, backed by key defense partnerships in Israel and cutting-edge autonomous innovation.

Delaware, USA – Darwin’s Lab, the flagship platform of Synthetic Darwin™, will launch its utility token on Solana on Tuesday, July 15th, under the ticker $DARWIN. Trademark secured. Patent pending. With secured technical partnerships across Israel’s Aerospace & Defense sectors and a CAGE Code registration application in process to support future U.S. government and NATO procurement eligibility.

This utility token is designed to power innovation, incentivize research collaboration, and enable enterprise partners to access Synthetic Darwin’s self-evolving AI platform. The platform can be tasked to innovate and solve complex problems in the industry.

What Is Darwin’s Lab?

Darwin’s Lab represents a paradigm shift in AI development. Instead of training massive static models, Darwin creates a living digital ecosystem inspired by GA (genetic algorithms), where thousands of agents autonomously evolve, mutate, compete, and improve.

Powered by Synthetic Darwinism, this system applies evolutionary principles selection, crossover, and mutation to continuously generate and refine new generations of AI agents in real time. What once took years of human-led iteration can now happen in hours or days, with every cycle building on the last to drive ever-faster progress.

The result – A self-improving intelligence framework engineered to thrive in the toughest environments from unstable, adversarial networks to high-stakes defense simulations continuously adapting to solve problems conventional AI cannot.

Partnerships:

What sets Darwin apart isn’t just the technology, it’s the caliber of the partners.

Confirmed partnerships include:

  • RIMON, a core supplier to Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system, exploring how Darwin can enhance battlefield resilience through adaptive command interfaces and real-time optimization across connected defense assets.
  • MOTOMEA, a pioneering testbed for self-evolving electric motors that autonomously run to failure, learn, and regenerate improved designs.

Together, these collaborations position Darwin at the forefront of aerospace and defense innovation and mission-critical resilience.

Additional partnerships across other high-impact industries are expected to be announced on a rolling basis in the coming weeks.

Trusted at the Highest Levels

  • Trademark Secured: Synthetic Darwin™ is a registered mark under UKIPO.
  • Patent Pending: Recursive Evolution of Intelligence system in motion.
  • Accreditations & Compliance: Partner facilities are ISO 9001, AS9100C, and NATO STANAG certified. Several have active contracts with the Israeli Ministry of Defense.

Powering the Next Wave of Innovation

AI is hitting the limits of centralized, static models. Darwin offers a radically different path: a decentralized, self-evolving intelligence ecosystem that learns, adapts, and improves autonomously. Unlike traditional AI, it requires a fraction of the computing resources and human oversight to drive progress. This isn’t just a research concept—it’s in advanced development today, built in collaboration with some of the world’s leading defense and industrial partners.

Launch Details:

  • Token: $DARWIN
  • Chain: Solana
  • Launch Date: Tuesday, July 15th, 2025
