Contribution to support a charity organization

23. February 2021

Hello Cardano community,

After some helpful discussions with my family, we have now decided which charity organization we would like to support as WSIE pool operator at this point in time:

This is https://www.savethechildren.net/

As an additional contribution, I have decided to donate 50% of my first pool rewards! (the rewards for delegators is not touched!)

“WE BELIEVE EVERY CHILD DESERVES A FUTURE.
Around the world, too many children start life at a disadvantage simply because of who they are and where they come from.

Millions of children are dying from preventable causes, face poverty, violence, disease and hunger. They are caught up in war zones and disasters they did nothing to create. And they are denied an education and other basic rights owed to them.

All children deserve better.

We champion the rights and interests of children worldwide, putting the most vulnerable children first.

With 25,000 dedicated staff across 117 countries, we respond to major emergencies, deliver innovative development programmes, and ensure children’s voices are heard through our campaigning to build a better future for and with children.“ Source: https://www.savethechildren.net/about-us/who-we-are

We hope that with this step we can make a small contribution to improving our world. Please help us and join the pool [WISE] as a delegator.

Be an important part of this community, support this charity organization and small stake pools like us!

P.S .: I also plan to create a smart contract as part of the introduction of smart contracts on Cardano in order to donate a fixed percentage of the pool rewards directly to the charity organization.

Please support small pools and ensure a more balanced distribution.

Yours,

WISE pool team

Cardano Epoch Price Viewer

18. February 2021

Hello Cardano community,

today I want to introduce you my first tax tool for delegators.

My GitHub-Repo: https://github.com/aleincsharp/WISE-Pool

Tool Download: https://github.com/aleincsharp/WISE-Pool/raw/main/cardano%20tax%20tools/Cardano%20Epoch%20Price%20Viewer.xlsx


The tax issue is not yet clearly regulated in many countries with regard to cryptos. Therefore it is currently difficult to find good tools
or to create ones.

This tool should help all ADA stakers to properly record their epoch rewards, visualize them and convert them into a fiat currency.

The following steps are necessary:

  1. Enter Blockfrost.io API Key / Project Id (automated fetching of your stake address rewards)
    • If you have no API Key yet, just sign up on https://blockfrost.io – no registration needed – and get started:
    • Create your Project and copy the API Key to my sheet.
  2. Enter your Bech32 stake address
    • Can get it from a pool you delegated to, example on adapools.org:
  3. Enter your preferred currency
    • USD, EUR, BTC and so on
  4. Click on Ribbon Data -> Refresh All
  5. Click Show Results

Additional sheets:

  • “My Epoch rewards details”: Details as a list with the important columns.
  • “Source Historical Data”

Here you can mix with you own data or source. Just enter your epoch date and the price, so it will be mixed and replaced!

In a later version I plan to create the possibility to add own data about the Epoch rewards, so that you don’t have to fetch from the blockfrost.io API.

I would like to thank the developers of blockfrost.io for the great work and API!

I would also like to thank CoinGecko for the freely available market data API!

Please support us and delegate to our pool: WISE

Have fun and success with staking,

your WISE Pool Team
