My aim is to share my experiences with crypto & hopefully inspire the non 20-30-somethings who would like to stick a toe into the crypto-ocean #Crypto
I have various aims in #crypto: 1. Secure my retirement in 7 years. After saving & investing all my life, the kitty is still pretty empty. I see crypto as a way to supplement this (in a big way!)
I have various aims in #crypto: 2. Hedge against the very real possibility of my local currency going heads-up (the South African Rand - ZAR). South Africa has already been junked by various rating agencies.
I have various aims in #crypto: 4. Really understand this new environment, from the #token economy, new business models, to the possibilities of the #blockchain. Particularly in making life better & more equitable in South Africa & the developing world
I have various aims in #crypto: 5. Eventually come up with a #blockchain concept that can dramatically improve the quality of life for the poor. Give them hope & skills & opportunity!
Oh, and I'm a long-term #crypto investor, not a trader! And #altcoins, not #Bitcoin! I love the great ideas & creativity of #altcoins. This where the future will be invented!
This is current my portfolio:
$SALT, $MCO, $QSP, $CVC, $KNC, $OMG, $POWR, $CND, $WTC, $REQ, $XLM, $MOD, $IOT, $REAL, $PLBT (embarrassing, this one, but in my defence, my first ICO investment when I knew diddly-squat!)
For any South African #crypto pioneers out there, I use @lunomoney to convert $ZAR to $BTC or $ETH. Very expensive, sometimes up to 20% more than the average cost of these currencies. But price determined by the market.
#crypto tip re using @lunomoney: check early in the morning (4am-ish) to see whether you can get a good price. I look at the @BitfolioApp price in $ZAR & compare. Also, when $BTC or $ETH are rising rapidly, there is a lag sometimes
