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...

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.

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.

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...

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 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...

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...

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...

Well, maybe you agree or not that the world is changing. Tech companies will be with us no matter if you like it or not, btw Microsoft IPO was 34 years ago

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...

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...

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 -...

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...

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 %

We are people and for some reason, we like doomsday predictions. There is one little dangerous thing out there and it is called "lost confidence in US dollar". Hypothetically if USD would go through a long downward cycle and depreciates, then other central banks that have really big foreign...

Yes, I really believe that FED doesn't let any big company bankrupt and the reason is simple. The freezing interbank market in 2008 was so huge, that I don't see why they should allow this scenario to repeat again in the situation when they have enough easy tools on how to prevent this trouble...

Inverse ETF's have some costs that's true, but the questions were what is out there for hedging during a crisis (I guess the author meant short or medium hedge, not for years)

Not sure if your response is irony, but yes, in my long term point of view, the investments into US stocks make sense as FED cannot afford to let them go too low

It looks like that, even big strategically important companies will likely not go to bankruptcy and states bailout them. After Lehman Brothers, people in charge are aware that they will not take this risk again, maybe in 20-30 years the situation changes as people in charge forget
