Op zoek naar een nieuwe crypto-godheid

0 Comment

Vorige week schreef ik over technologie die Disney overnam. Deze week heb ik het over de zoektocht naar een nieuwe crypto-messias.

 

Het grote ding

Elon heeft zijn welkom onder de crypto-illuminati versleten en de acolieten van Bitcoin zijn op zoek naar een nieuwe keizergod-koning.

 

Dit weekend zijn duizenden crypto-aanhangers en investeerders neergedaald op een conferentie met Bitcoin-thema in Miami, een zeer echte, zeer zwaar geproduceerde conferentie met crypto-beroemdheden en echte beroemdheden die allemaal op een missie zijn om golven te maken. Dogecoin koers verwachting is omhoog.

Ook al ben ik niet persoonlijk op de conferentie (panels van het hoofdpodium werden online live gestreamd), ik heb genoeg uitnodigingen in mijn e-mail voor afterparty’s met beroemdheden, open bars en eindeloze gesprekken over de gevaren van fiat. De cryptocurrency-gemeenschap is nooit groter of rijker geweest dankzij de meest vurige bull-run tot nu toe, en ondanks een behoorlijk opmerkelijke correctie in de afgelopen weken, geloven mensen dat het beste nog moet komen.

 

Ondanks dat ze zoveel hebben, lijkt het erop dat ze nog steeds een patroonheilige missen.

 

Voor de langste periode waren dat SpaceX en Tesla CEO Elon Musk die de valuta versterkten door Tesla ertoe aan te zetten contant geld op zijn balans in bitcoin te investeren, terwijl Tesla er ook op aandrong om bitcoin-betalingen voor zijn voertuigen te accepteren. Zoals ik in het verleden in deze nieuwsbrief heb opgemerkt, had Musk het moeilijk om het pure energieverbruik van het wereldwijde netwerk van bitcoin te verzoenen met zijn eco-krijger bravoure, wat leek te leiden tot zijn milde en ongelijke excommunicatie (hoewel ik zeker weet dat hij welkom is) op elk moment terug).

 

Er zijn tal van beroemdheden die zijn schoenen willen vullen – een recente goedkeuring die fout is gegaan door Soulja Boy was een van de meer komische voorbeelden.

 

Crypto is onbekend

Crypto is geen onbekende voor grift – daar kunnen zelfs de meest hardcore crypto-grifters het waarschijnlijk over eens zijn – en ik denk dat er enige overeenstemming is dat de enige leider die het evangelie echt kan prediken iemand is die al zo rijk is dat ze het niet eens nodig hebben meer geld. Het is een van de redenen waarom de gemeenschap zoveel respect heeft getoond voor Ethereum-oprichter Vitalik Buterin, die er echt niet veel om lijkt te geven om rijker te worden – hij schonk ongeveer $ 1 miljard aan crypto aan Covid-hulpverleningsinspanningen in India. Een Musk-achtige cheerleader heeft echter een ander doel en daarom is de gemeenschap op zoek naar een goede miljardair.

 

De beste runner-up op dit moment lijkt Jack Dorsey te zijn, en hoewel hij – net als Musk – ook een andere dubbele CEO is, verschilt hij nogal van hem in gedrag en verlangen naar de schijnwerpers. Hij was echter een hoofdspreker op de Bitcoin-conferentie in Miami.

 

Dorsey verzamelt de meeste krantenkoppen voor zijn werk op Twitter, maar het is Square waar hij het grootste deel van zijn crypto-enthousiasme pusht. Gebruikers kunnen de Cash-app van Square al gebruiken om Bitcoin te kopen. Minuten voordat hij vrijdag het podium betrad, tweette Dorsey een thread waarin stond dat Square geïnteresseerd was in het bouwen van een eigen hardwareportemonnee waarop gebruikers cryptocurrency zoals bitcoin konden opslaan buiten de grenzen van een uitwisseling.

 

“Bitcoin verandert absoluut alles”, zei Dorsey op het podium. “Ik denk niet dat er iets belangrijkers in mijn leven is om aan te werken.”

 

Positief over bitcoin

En hoewel de miljardair Dorsey op papier een goede keuze lijkt, tweet hij vaak over bitcoin, maar alleen goede tweets. Hij verdedigt de gevolgen voor het milieu. Hij komt naar House misinformatie hoorzittingen met een bitcoin-tracker duidelijk zichtbaar op de achtergrond. Hij is helaas ook de CEO van Twitter, een bedrijf dat wil heersen over zijn meer lastige gebruikers – waaronder een zeer lastige gebruiker – heeft een breuk veroorzaakt tussen hem en de zeer luidruchtige libertaire sekte van de cryptogemeenschap.

 

Dorsey kwam niet erg ver in zijn toespraak voordat een bedrieger een scène maakte waarin hij hem een ​​hypocriet noemde vanwege dit alles met een paar anderen die binnenkwamen, maar zoals elke goede potentiële crypto-koning zou weten te doen, wachtte hij gewoon rustig op de geluid om te sterven.

 

Andere dingen

Hier zijn de TechCrunch-nieuwsverhalen die deze week vooral mijn aandacht trokken:

 

Het Trump-verbod van Facebook duurt minimaal 2 jaar

In reactie op de aanbevelingen van de Facebook Oversight Board dat het bedrijf meer specificiteit biedt rond het verbod op voormalig president Trump, kondigde het bedrijf vrijdag aan dat het Trump in ieder geval tot januari 2023 van zijn platforms zal weren, hoewel het bedrijf zichzelf in feite de mogelijkheid heeft gegeven om die deadline te verlengen als ze dat wil… Cardano verwachting is gestegen.

 

Nigeria schort Twitter op

Nigeria sluit de toegang tot Twitter in het land af met een overheidsfunctionaris die het “gebruik van het platform voor activiteiten die capabel zijn” noemt. om het bedrijfsbestaan ​​van Nigeria te ondermijnen.” Twitter noemde de sluiting “zeer zorgwekkend”.

 

Stack Overflow wordt overgenomen voor $ 1,8 miljard

Stack Overflow, een van de meest bezochte sites van ontwikkelaars in de technologische industrie, werd overgenomen door Prosus. De zware investeringsfirma is vooral bekend vanwege het bezit van een enorm deel van Tencent. De oprichters van Stack Overflow zeggen dat de site onder het nieuwe management onafhankelijk zal blijven opereren.

 

Spotify verhoogt zijn personalisatie

Muziekdienst Spotify lanceerde deze week een speciale sectie genaamd Only You, die tot doel heeft een deel van de personalisatie vast te leggen die het heeft geserveerd in zijn jaarlijkse Spotify Wrapped-recensie. Hoogtepunten van de nieuwe functie zijn onder meer gemengde afspeellijsten met vrienden en beoordelingen halverwege het jaar.

 

Hooggerechtshof beperkt Amerikaanse hackwet in historische zaak

Rechters van de conservatieve en liberale vleugels hebben zich verenigd in een historische uitspraak die grenzen stelt aan welk soort gedrag kan worden vervolgd op grond van de controversiële Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.

 

Deze ene e-mail legt Apple uit

Hier is een leuke, de e-mailuitwisseling die de App Store heeft voortgebracht tussen wijlen Steve Jobs en SVP van Software Engineering, Bertrand Serlet, zoals geannoteerd door mijn baas Matthew Panzarino.

Medevoorzitter van Man Utd, Avram Glazer, zet voor £ 70 miljoen aan aandelen te koop

0 Comment

Hij zou een enorme meevaller kunnen krijgen nadat hij aankondigde dat hij 5.000.000 Klasse A-verkoopt, maar dit heeft geen invloed op het eigendom van de club.

Medevoorzitter van Manchester United, Avram Glazer, heeft vijf miljoen van zijn aandelen, met een waarde van ongeveer £ 70 miljoen ($ 97 miljoen), te koop aangeboden.

 

United maakte donderdagavond het besluit van Glazer bekend, en het bod loopt naar verwachting tot dinsdag. Met de huidige waardering van de New York Stock Exchange van $ 20,13 per aandeel per aandeel, zou dit zijn dat hij in aanmerking komt om $ 101 miljoen (£ 72 miljoen) binnen te halen.

 

Als de verkoop zou gebeuren, zou het eigendom van de Glazers van de club dalen van 78 procent naar 74,9% en het is duidelijk dat de familie niet van plan is om het eigendom volledig af te staan. BAM aandeel koers is omhoog.

 

Wat is er gezegd?

De verklaring van donderdagavond bevestigde dat de club geen geld van de verkoop zou ontvangen: “Manchester United plc [” Manchester United “] kondigde vandaag de aanbieding aan van 5.000.000 van zijn Klasse A Gewone Aandelen door de Avram Glazer Irrevocable Exempt Trust [de “Verkopende aandeelhouder”].

 

 

“Manchester United zal geen opbrengsten ontvangen uit de verkoop van gewone aandelen van klasse Een door de verkopende aandeelhouder. Het aanbod zal naar verwachting op 16 maart 2021 worden afgerond.”

 

Wat betekent dit?

Klasse A-aandelen, die dit zijn, hebben een tiende van de stemrechten van Klasse B-aandelen en de familie Glazer bezit de gros van Manchester United.

 

Het is duidelijk dat de familie geen plannen heeft om de controle op te geven. Als de verkoop doorgaat, zou het persoonlijke belang van Avram Glazer in de club dalen tot 10,2%, terwijl het gezin als geheel iets minder dan 75% zou bezitten.

 

Wat voor invloed heeft dit op United?

Kortom, het heeft helemaal geen invloed op hen. De familie Glazer heeft nog steeds de overgrote gros van de aandelen en er zijn geen aanwijzingen dat ze plannen heeft om deze op korte termijn te verkopen. Amazon koers aandeel is gestegen.

 

Wat de financiën van de club betreft, kondigde United vorige week in hun laatste financiële resultaten aan dat ze hun nettoschuld hadden zien groeien tot £ 455,5 miljoen ($ 633 miljoen), een stijging van £ 64,2 miljoen ($ 89 miljoen) in vergelijking met de resultaten van vorig jaar.​Hoewel de hoofdschuld hetzelfde blijft, is het duidelijk dat de toename van de netto-inkomsten voornamelijk te wijten is aan het gebrek aan inkomsten als gevolg van de pandemie van het coronavirus.

 

 

Selecting Investment Funds By Performance, But Is This Always The Smartest Way To Invest On The Stock Market?

0 Comment

Anyone who has followed the news a little bit over the past period has probably heard the name Standard & Poor’s (S&P) pass by a number of times. Especially when it came to the creditworthiness of (the economy) of the Netherlands and especially Shell aandelen were under big pressure after the coronavirus. This credit rating agency is taken very seriously when it comes to assessing financial and economic performance, even to such an extent that a negative rating for a country has immediate annoying consequences on the loan market.

However, Standard & Poor’s is not only concerned with assessing countries and governments, investment funds are also regularly scrutinized by this assessor. These assessments can provide interesting information for you as a potential participant in an investment fund. If an investment fund is assessed particularly well by S&P, it will receive a Platinum rating. With a Gold or Silver rating, a fund still performs well in the various areas (return, risk, management, etc.). From Bronze on, it is already a bit less. The returns are indicated with stars (5 stars is a very high return, 1 star is a low return). In addition to S&P, Moody’s and Fitch are also involved in assessing investment funds.

Comparing fund investments on return and risk

The ratings of the rating companies give a fairly nice overall picture of the working method, success and reliability of an investment fund. However, before you make a choice you will probably want more specific information on certain topics. One point at which investment funds can be compared is the level of return that a fund is able to achieve. Those who are willing to take (relatively) much risk can choose an investment fund that is known for its high returns. However, a very high return usually means that the risks are also quite high. When comparing investment funds, you can assume that return and risk are inversely proportional to each other, regardless of the nice talk that some investment funds proclaim on their own site.

Comparing funds at an additional cost

It is nice to know that your investments in an investment fund are managed by a team of financial specialists and analysts. These people know about it! At the same time, it means that investing through an investment fund involves extra costs that you would not incur if you arranged your investments yourself. The employees of the investment fund have to be paid and the fund wants to improve itself. For this reason, a number of different costs are charged to the private investor who joins an investment fund. Different investment funds have different costs, and the amount of these costs can vary considerably per fund. This makes it interesting to take a good look at the costs when comparing funds. Funds are required by law to clearly state all costs, and they usually do this in a prospectus, what also helps is starting with the so called ”broker vergelijken” to make sure you choose a safe and reliable partner when investing in funds.

Based on your postal code, the insurer determines where you live. For example, do you live in the city? Then the costs for a moped insurance are higher than when you live in a quiet area. Again, the insurer considers the risk of using your moped in the city higher than in a quiet area.

While the current time of progress presently implies that Bahrain has gotten one of the most prosperous and appealing countries in the Gulf district in which to live, work, contribute and succeed, it’s quickly extending economy and critical political changes have made a fundamental sensation of destabilization among specific groups of the nearby populace.

The explanation behind this is that Bahrain is situated in a significant vital situation in the Gulf and has willingly volunteered to be the country offering least protection from worldwide organizations requiring an actual presence in the district. Because of alluring enactment, straightforward strategic approaches and a low/no assessment strategy, Bahrain has prevailing with regards to pulling in enormous quantities of global and worldwide companies to its shores who each require a base in the Gulf district and who each enlist huge quantities of global ostracizes who are presently moving to live in Bahrain.

This resultant solid internal relocation of expert exiles requesting lodging saw Bahrain being one of the first of the Gulf countries to concede freehold land possession rights to outsiders.

While this strain goes generally disregarded some are beginning to state that Bahrain has moved too quick in growing new regions of its economy and in permitting worldwide organizations to set up activities in the nation. These multinationals have been blamed for generally utilizing ostracize staff in a nation where, particularly among the Bahraini youth, there are critical joblessness issues and furthermore the lowest pay permitted by law issues.

Along these lines, while worldwide interest for property in Bahrain is solid and expanding and improbable to die down in 2007 which implies financial specialists have a hot market to target, expanding area and development costs and a developing division between neighborhood moderateness and land costs is establishing an undeniable climate of uneasiness that ought not go neglected by a speculator deciding if the dangers of market passage exceed the possibilities for property market benefit.
