You can only buy this watch with bitcoin, and you can use it as a cold storage wallet

Alright, I gotta admit this ain't nothing new - as my favourite rapper would say - because this watch was actually launched a couple of years ago. But I only found out about it so I'm writing about it now. Sorry. It's the Franck Muller Vanguard Encr...

Staking vs Earning: PROs and CONs

16 Jan 2022 2 minute read 1 comment LeftFooted

Yesterday I wrote about the PROs and CONs of exchanges vs wallets and I thought it'd be interesting to share the same perspective on staking vs earning. If we wanna keep it simple, staking and earning are basically two different ways of defining the...

Exchange vs Wallet: PROs and CONs

15 Jan 2022 2 minute read 7 comments LeftFooted

I gotta be honest with y'all, the 'not your keys, not your coins' mantra is absolutely important. It's useful. You must know that, you must remember that. But if you're new to crypto, and I'm assuming the goal we want to achieve is to get as many peo...

Experiment: I much I made staking KAVA for 21 days

15 Jan 2022 1 minute read 11 comments LeftFooted

About a month ago, I was looking for some staking opportunities with coins I wasn't familiar with and I found KAVA, and I picked it for a technical and logical reason... I liked the name. Kava is the Serbian/Hungarian (and a few more) word for 'coffe...

Let's play a silly game: pick your favourite coin/token based on the logo alone

14 Jan 2022 1 minute read 2 comments LeftFooted

I think that the logo and the name of tokens and coins we invest into play a much bigger part than we care to admit? I once bought some Tribe just because I used to work for a company with a similar name, and I bought Kava because it means 'coffee' i...

This Glenfiddich 1973 whisky bottle NFT costs nearly half a million dollars

13 Jan 2022 1 minute read 0 comments LeftFooted

A few days ago I had an idea: I thought it would be interesting to put together a list of 'boozy' NFTs but then I realised that BlockBar, which is essentially a marketplace for NFTs with a sole focus on drinks and spirits, gets updated pretty much da...

Will Bitcoin ever hit $1 million? Here's why I think it's inevitable

13 Jan 2022 1 minute read 2 comments LeftFooted

Bitcoin is simple and complicated at the same time. From the outside, the first thing newcomers see is the rise in price. They hear stories about people who bought 10,000 bitcoin at $1 ppc, or about that one guy who bought 2 pizzas for 10,000 bitcoin...

Shiba Inu is a pup that's trying to be dog, will it succeed?

13 Jan 2022 1 minute read 0 comments LeftFooted

Shiba Inu started out as a memecoin, we all know that, it went parabolic between January 2021 and October 2021 and a lot of people got rich pretty much overnight. Good on 'em. There was a lot of noise, and the self-proclaimed 'Doge-killer' began rece...

The main reason why I believe that bitcoin, whatever else happens, can't go 0

12 Jan 2022 1 minute read 0 comments LeftFooted

It's a simple reason, actually. And maybe I should apologise because I'm gonna turn this into a full-blown article but the bottom line is: bitcoin won't go to 0 because people believe, fiercely and strongly, it won't. It's basically a religion. Bitc...

I'm gonna sell (most of) my watches and put money into bitcoin

12 Jan 2022 1 minute read 1 comment LeftFooted

I'm a small-time watch collector, I don't wish to sound immodest because the combined value of the watches I own probably doesn't match the value of a brand-new Rolex, but that's a different conversation. I've always loved watches, and for about two...
