1XBet is one of the biggest employers here in Cyprus where it is headquartered. They employ the best people and their office is in the best in town, shiny seafront building. One of the biggest taxpayers here too, the top #1 being PornHub. Founders are on the wanted list in Russia but the thing continues to operate.

Virtually all business that operates here is forex (both legal and illegal, while legal makes so little money it's usually just a front for the illegal), illegal trading, betting, "dating" (fake one of course), porn, webcams, outright scam/fraud, and services that facilitate all this like anonymisation, hosting, creation of plausible Facebook profiles to buy ads (literally a large company occupies whole building that does just that, accounts are $1000 a pop and if they don't lie, you'll on average be able to buy $20K worth of ads before they shut you down), chargeback-proof payment provision, and yes of course, also crypto and crypto-related scams (although i have no idea what that is if whole industry is a scam).

Out of more legit ones, there are gaming companies, i see a lot of people who work as addictiveness enhancers or how are they called.

Come over here, this is the place to be.
