CryptoCurrency Mania has taken the world by storm!

 

From a humble value of 000.1 cent in 2009 to between US$5000 and US$10,000 today, BitCoin & its Crypto cousins have had a wild ride in the past decade.   

 

But this event is about the FUTURE!

 

The sky seems to be the limit. But so are the Risks. And naturally, fears about yet another "asset bubble" (and fraud) have emerged. 

 

Some of these fears are very well founded.

 

Unsurprisingly, few of the skeptics have invested or made money in the area. While early movers have made (and lost) small fortunes, which has added to the intrigue and speculative frenzy.

 

But behind every new frenzy, new winners and losers emerge.

Some regard Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) as "crowdfunding on steroids", disrupting Venture Capital Series C rounds.

 

GO BEYOND ALL THE HYPE & HOT AIR... !

 

Since October 2017, we've received over 1250 special enquiries for advice and consultancy from around the world.  Our members want hard facts, not "crypto fantasy" or media hype.

 

So we have created this special, tailor-made Masterclass Summit to answer (hopefully) ALL your burning questions.

 

It's an intensive day starting at 9am and finishing at 10pm. It includes gala lunch, refreshments, cocktails and dinner.
Hosted in association with the Four Seasons Group and affiliate partner hotels Worldwide

Host cities for 2018....
Sydney, Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, Shanghai, Tokyo, London, Zurich, New York and Las Vegas

 

Plus, the Masterclass Summit can be tailor-made and presented directly at your own office, for a genuine team experience.

It's 100% no-nonsense, hard facts - designed to inform and educate. 

 

There is no selling involved.

Just as there are no free lunches in investing.

 

This Masterclass Summit is designed for people - like you - who want to make INFORMED decisions before they get in.

 

People, like you, who don't chase fads but are ready to strike at the right moment with a clear action plan on what to do next.

(And, with a Plan B & C if things go wrong!)

People, like you, who believe in the long-term potential and value of Cryptocurrencies as a genuine new asset class.

 

As well as a real alternative to fiat currencies.

 

So, what are the hidden risks?

And where exactly do you start - step by step?

 

Do you want to trade?

Or are you a long-term buy and hold investor?

Do you want to know when the best time is to get IN?

 

This Masterclass is delivered by hand-picked Digital Currency practitioners, successful investors and seasoned advisers from all over the world who know Crypto concepts and patterns inside out.

HOW TO INVEST IN CRYPTOCURRENCY - View latest agenda and seats remaining here

 

SHOULD YOU INVEST IN BITCOIN or the multitude of other Cryptos?

A summary of the programme...

After walking you through the basics (eg: what are cryptocurrencies, where do they ‘exist’, how does ‘mining’ work, how do you store them, are they secure), we turn to the obvious issue:

VALUE.

 

QUESTION: How can a string of digits generated from a piece of software possibly be worth $5,000 to $20,000?

The answer lies in basic economics: supply and demand.

The value of anything, whether it’s a piece of art, high rise condominium, ounce of gold or an expensive watch is based on supply and demand.

 

This goes for conventional currencies as well- which, by the way, are almost entirely digital.

To give you an example, the current supply of US dollars is around $13.7 trillion. Yet only about 10% of that amount consists of paper currency and physical coins.

The rest of the US dollar money supply exists merely as digits in electronic bank databases.

 

When you log in to your bank’s website and check your account balance, for example, it’s not like there are a bunch of pieces of paper sitting in the bank vault with your name on it.

Dollars, euros, yen, renminbi, Swiss francs-- they’re all essentially digital currencies. They just happen to be controlled by central banks.

As such, the supply of these currencies goes up and down on a regular basis based on whether or not the central bankers want to create more money.

They could wake up tomorrow and decide to conjure trillions of dollars into existence- which is pretty much what happened during the 2008 financial crisis.

A currency’s demand, on the other hand, is based on several factors: the number of users, the number of ‘nodes’ where the currency can be used to pay for goods and services, confidence in the currency, etc.

 

The US dollar has hundreds of millions of users, and hundreds of millions more places where you can use them, from the coffee shop next door to the government tax office.

 

Dollars also have an unparalleled reputation as the world’s dominant reserve currency, plus it’s viewed internationally as a major safe haven.

 

In a sense, it might seem silly that these green pieces of paper (or the digital representations of those pieces of paper) have any value…

 

… that we can trade digital or paper dollars that can be created at will by un-elected bureaucrats for products and services that we dearly need or desire.

And yet, dollars have value.

It’s similar with Bitcoin (and other cryptocurrencies), but with a few key differences.

Most importantly: Bitcoin supply is FIXED.

There is no central bank of Bitcoin that can conjure more out of thin air.

There will only be 21 million total bitcoins… ever.

So, over the long-term, Bitcoin’s value fundamentally has to be about its demand.

 

Will there be more cryptocurrency users in the future, or fewer?

Will there be more businesses that accept payment in cryptocurrency, or fewer?

Will there be more transactions in cryptocurrency, or fewer?

If you believe the answer to those questions is ‘more’, it stands to reason that future demand will drive the price higher over the long-term.

And there’s certainly a good case to be made that this will happen.

But bear in mind that nothing goes up or down forever in a straight line, including cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin has been extraordinarily volatile. And this is also about supply and demand.

As the price rose this year from $1,000 to $2,000 to $5,000 to $10,000, a lot of people who missed out started to buy Bitcoin in a panic.

Coinbase, the world’s largest crypto brokerage, added more than 100,000 new accounts on Thanksgiving 2017 alone. And nearly 10 million new accounts over the last 12 months.

But at the same time, the number of people willing to sell Bitcoin is pretty low.

Think about it: if you own something that seems to be going up 10% per day, would you sell?

Maybe a little bit.

But a lot of folks are tempted to keep their Bitcoin, believing that, with such incredible momentum, the price will double again by next month-- why sell today when you can sell later at twice the price?

 

With this view in mind, there are few sellers… combined with a LOT of buyers.

This is the primary reason why the price has been soaring higher.

It’s reflexive: The higher the price goes, the more people want to buy it… and the less people want to sell it… which drives the price even higher... and the cycle continues.

 

We encourage you to stay rational when DECIDING to pull the trigger...  we'll show you exactly how!

If you want to buy Bitcoin at $10,000 (or any price), it should be based on a rational, objective assessment of the long-term demand.

 

Don’t buy because you’re in a panic that you missed out.

We hear this from people who feel that they missed a ‘once in a lifetime opportunity.’

That’s nonsense.

Speculators like Kyle Bass made billions shorting the housing market in 2008.

Investors who used conservative leverage to bet against the British pound prior to Brexit in 2016 made a 10x return in less than a month.

Crypto has been a great opportunity, and may continue to be so.

But if you feel like you missed it, and/or you’re not willing to speculate at this price, never forget that there will ALWAYS be other great opportunities out there.

 

BEWARE OF LISTENING TO SELF-STYLED EXPERTS...

 

If you’ve been on the Internet in the past six months, you’ve no doubt seen loads of ads touting “crypto geniuses” that have found the next token that’s going to explode…

 

 But the truth is, nobody has a crystal ball.

 

Ultimately, what’s going to drive crypto prices is what drives all asset prices in the long-run – supply and demand.

 

Most cryptocurrencies have a fixed supply. For example, there will only be 21 million bitcoins mined.

Ever. (Today there are about 17 million in circulation).

And because there’s a fixed supply, prices should be determined by long-term demand.

Every crypto expert you talk to will have his/her own opinion on which coin is going to the moon… and why.

But it’s important to form your own opinion.

 

With crypto, the fundamental question you should ask yourself is will there be more demand or less demand in the future?

 

And if you believe there will be MORE demand in the future, the next question is-- which coins have superior technology?

This is an important question. Every coin has different software code with different features and limitations.

For example, Bitcoin has a big limitation in that its network can only process a few transactions per second.

Compare that to Visa or Mastercard, which can process 24,000 transactions per second – nearly 10,000 times more.

One of our team members attended a crypto meeting of the minds in New York City recently… and of course the room was filled with self-proclaimed geniuses.

 

But there were a few legitimate standouts who had a much more rational view.

 

One of them was Barry Silbert.

 

Silbert founded a company called SecondMarket, an exchange for private company stock, which he sold to Nasdaq in 2015.

Then he founded a company called Digital Currency Group (DCG).

 

He’s spent the last several years learning about and investing in the sector, including in various cryptocurrencies, as well as crypto companies like Coindesk.

He also founded the Bitcoin Investment Trust (GBTC), which is essentially a Bitcoin ETF.

 

Silbert’s firm owns $600 million worth of crypto, 95% of which is in bitcoin, Ethereum Classic and Z-Cash.

 

He thinks over time, that bitcoin will become a form of ‘Digital Gold,’ the industry standard for storing value in crypto.

Z-cash, Silbert explained, will be the industry standard for privacy.

 

And Ethereum Classic will be the standard for ‘smart contracts’.

 

More bluntly, Silbert explained that most other coins will go to zero over time.

 

The reason is because they don’t have any functional purpose.

Now, remember that Silbert’s opinion is exactly that: his opinion.

 

There are plenty of other investors in the crypto space who would say something completely different.  And their logic would be equally sound.....

But Silbert’s point about utility is important: why should anyone own a token that doesn’t have any purpose.

 

Look at CryptoKitties and other nonsense, for instance. Where’s the value?

This value question goes back to what we said in the beginning about demand/supply analysis.

 

Will there be more demand in the future for CryptoKitties, or less demand?

In the long-run, demand has to be driven by some sort of utility.

 

The coin must present some special benefit that other coins and tokens don’t have… and that people will actually NEED. Coins and tokens that lack this important characteristic will likely fail.

 

And when they do, it will seem so obvious in retrospect.

 

This is an easily avoidable mistake… and an important point we’ve been repeating for a long time: with crypto, as with anything else, stay rational.

 

WHEN TO BUY, 

WHEN TO SELL

 

A decision to BUY should be based on an informed, educated analysis about future demand… not an emotional frenzy because the price is surging.

 

Similarly, a decision to SELL should be rational and based on the presence of new information or a different analysis, not simply because the market is in a panic.

 

We hope to see you soon!

In your corner...

Good investing.
