Ask HN: Any chances to eventually relocate to US if working remotely?

Hi HN.

I have an offer from a local (Russian) company with headquarters in the Silicon Valley, they offer trips and working on site, they may relocate their best employees to the USA. But I was also thinking about working remotely for US companies, and the question is - given that firms hire remote workers to reduce costs is there any chances to eventually relocate to the USA?

Are there any success stories when someone started working remotely and then got an H1B Visa?
