2021-07-27 18:38:41 Hey Guys,

For those of you who don't know, I run biweekly AMAs in my Instagram.

I get so many interesting and diverse questions. However, one of the most common I tend to get is about my personal investing / research style.

More specifically, how do I keep up with the crypto markets, follow the news, invest and make the videos.

So, I decided that that would be a perfect topic for me to do a video on!

Today, I give you guys an overview of a typical day in my life. From dusk till dawn. Not only that, but I also tell you about some of the resources & tools that I use to study the markets.

Oh, and I also have a few Top Tips that can help to refine your crypto investing strategy.

Hope it helps! Open / Comment

Although the crypto markets appear to be in a slight recovery, there is one potential macro risk that far too few people are paying attention to…

Indeed, up until a month ago, everything appeared to be groovy for the world economy. High GDP growth, low unemployment and victory on the horizon for the global pandemic

However, in the space of a few weeks, things appeared to have turned.

In my video today, I look at the very real possibility that we could one day be faced with persistent stagflation. Yes, that weird economic phenomenon where you don't only have high and persistent inflation but also low growth.

There are a number of well-known economists and market participants that have started to throw the word around and many people still dismiss it outright.

However, we seem to have the perfect conditions for a stagflationary world. Everything from record debt to low rates, high inflation and a resurging Delta variant.

In the vid, I explain what it is and take you through some of the latest economic numbers for concern. I also analyse what other market participants have been saying and break down their respective arguments.

Finally, I will be telling you guys how I am personally diversifying my portfolio to protect it from this potential scenario.

P.S. I hope you enjoy the disclaimer.. Open / Comment

2021-07-24 19:07:56 Time for a new vid!

Last year, the World Economic Forum famously came out with the line: In the Future, you will own nothing and be happy

This was all part of their "Great Reset" theme that caused many people to become highly suspicious of the organisation. The World's rich and powerful meeting in the mountains of Switzerland every year to "solve the world's problems".

So, you can imagine with that background, I was highly skeptical when these chaps decided to release a report on cryptocurrencies a few weeks ago. My initial thoughts were that it would be an opportunity for them to discredit crypto and crow on about the benefits of CBDCs.

Well, thankfully I did read it - and that's because the report was actually pretty insightful. In fact, compared to the BIS report that I looked at a few weeks ago, it was surprisingly impartial and comprehensive.

Of course, given that I spent the time reading through it and taking notes, it was only fitting that I did a video on it. That is exactly what I have for you guys today. I break it down into its most important components and summarise these points.

Spoiler alert: They cover a wide range of cryptocurrencies including ETH, ALGO, XRP and many others.

2021-07-24 18:33:16 Hey Guys,

I wanted to quickly talk about this latest Uniswap move to remove several tokens from front end access. You can see their announcement here:

https://twitter.com/Uniswap/status/1418697012095164420

The full list of unsupported tokens can be seen here:

https://bit.ly/3BLQ2JV

Most of the tokens that they took down seem to be synth tokens (synthetic representations).

Now, the real controversy here is that this was without any sort of governance proposal or vote. This effectively renders the UNI tokens moot.

Why make unilateral decisions for the community when you developed a governance mechanism specifically for this?

Of course, I know that the Uniswap Devs are between a rock and a hard place. They have taken VC funding and these tokens that are trading there are clearly in breach of SEC rules around securities. It is only open source on the backend. The frontend is controlled by them and as such, they could become targets for SEC action.

The protocol is still open and unrestricted, and anyone can create a new frontend to trade those pairs if they wish (some have already).

I have actually talked about this DeFi regulation point in much greater detail in a video I made last year:





The point is that we will constantly be in this position where DeFi will tread on the toes of regulators. The only way that we move to a truly decentralised and autonomous DeFi is through a combination of:

- IPFS (Decentralised Frontend Hosting)
- ENS (Decentralised Name Service)
- DAO (Decentralised Governance)

Until we have all those technologies in place, we are unlikely to see a truly "decentralised" finance.

2021-07-22 22:16:49 Hey Chaps, Glad to see there is a time when Elon is talking and it is not complete Bitcoin FUD... Speaking of FUD, I do want to remind you that the original authors behind the "Grayscale Unlock" theory were the chaps over at JP Morgan. https://www… Open / Comment
