    Cryptocurrency trading platform and learning for noobs?

    I would stay away from those classical crypto exchanges that are filled wash trading bots, If KYC is not a trouble for you. Bitstamp, Coinbase, Kraken are probably the most trustworthy crypto exchanges. Out there are platforms like Quantfury that allow you to trade crypto as well as stocks and...

    Kenya - it is not a member automatic exchange of information alliance, their currency KES is quite stable for the last 13 years. The country is on a growing wave with a few other African countries. The country is open to new innovations and technology. Local interest rates on saving accounts are...

    Cryptoland is calling again!

    I don't think that PayPal effect is behind the current rally. Nowadays less and less people use BTC for payments, the role of BTC is changing to an investment instrument and that's the key in my opinion.

    I have the feeling that the bitcoin value is collasping

    Definitely not those overleveraged shorting guys :) But if you want some examples, Bitmex, and other exchanges that behave as clear market markets against own clients.

    Buying shares as a long-term investment

    In addition, the difference between investing and speculating is not valid as 95% of people don't know how to invest for the long term. The basic rule to invest gradually on more price levels is not fulfilled by retail investors. So most people who think that they are investing just join the...

    Buying shares as a long-term investment

    We don't live in a rigid world. If you learn from history, the world is changing and if you can find new progressive segments in the economy, you will be a winner. If you just put your money into traditional funds focused on bonds and shares of defensive sectors, okay why not. But at the end of...

    I have the feeling that the bitcoin value is collasping

    I met guys who were shorting bitcoin from three digits, they never learned and continued to do that. Most people have a biased opinion and seem no one cares about rough numbers. This is a huge paradox, people who hate bitcoin helped him to reach new highs because they thought that they are...

    I have the feeling that the bitcoin value is collasping

    That's a good question, I guess you should expand your thoughts and then we can add some answers. In my point of view, this is some small insignificant event and I would like to see the whole situation after 4-8 years. I expect we will see the six-digit value of BTC not due to retail, but...

    Buying shares as a long-term investment

    I strongly disagree as in the past 10-15 years "they" told us negative rates are nonsense, no overnight swaps with zero interest is possible, no community currency is viable (BTC), etc. If we cannot absorb new trends, we will die and it is valid for our investment as well. But this topic is...

    I have the feeling that the bitcoin value is collasping

    as usual in trading of everything, only question left, if the pump will go higher and I bet so. When I close my eyes I can see a wonderful world, where most traditional assets bear negative yields. You will take a loan and in the end, you pay less than the principal. You will take a mortgage and...

    Buying shares as a long-term investment

    Don't forget that P/E ratio is nothing more than only one not perfect indicator. For Tesla, you have P/E like 200-500. Tech companies are those that managed the current big correction if you skip big tech companies, you will realize that other industries are much more down than the whole index...

    I have the feeling that the bitcoin value is collasping

    In the long term, I don't think this is important because people who maintain big chunk of money are already in. For FOMO are this kind of articles good, but it is due to the fact that too many people follow nonsense news and act according to them. Most important news of recent months is -...

    Buying shares as a long-term investment

    Hi, There are plenty of options, very important if you are looking for stocks of a particular country. If you are focused mainly on US, then to select big companies like Lockheed Martin, Chevron, Intel, Google could be worth as long term investment. Airlines, travel companies, hotels, or oil...

    If not having money in crypto, then in what?

    It's a very strange and misleading comment as the part of foreign reserves denominated in USD is still over 60% and it is just because European countries keep mainly EUR for an obvious reason. British pound, Japanese Yen, Swiss franc and others have only a few %
