Wolf Money(Cryptocurrency)

-

Disclaimer first, I usually don’t comment on things that I had so little knowledge about but cryptocurrency trading is raging which warrant a word of caution. Below are some points one need to think through if one is buying cryptocurrency for investment, not speculating. I am not a big fan of all form of speculative trading. More than 90 percent of the people who trade actively lose money over a run of 5 years and beyond. That subject will be for another day. 

Back to Cryptocurrency investing, one need to consider the recent developments in the cryptocurrency market.

1.) China banned all form of crypto related business including crypto mining. Financial institutions are not allow to conduct any form of business relating to cryptocurrency.

2.) US will be coming out with regulations for transfer that involved more than 10k worth in crypto to stamp out illegal activities like money laundering and tax evasion. New cryptocurrency traders might be subjected to identification registration.

The above headlines from the two biggest economies had probably stop any potential mass adoption of any cryptocurrency in its current form.

US and China might be worry about their own rights to the money printing press. Under current fiat monetary system. The USD is the de facto reserve currency of the world. I can be very confident that US hope to keep the printing press to themselves for a long time. The USD no matter how bad it looks with all the money printing is still back by the full faith of the US government, the military might of the US arm forces and US influence on the world. Non of those is backing up cryptocurrency. I can’t even spend a Bitcoin at my nearest supermarket. The value of cryptocurrency is what the other person is willing to pay for.



The rise in crypto currency is similar to the Netflix drama “Money Heist” where a group of thieves locked themselves up inside the Bank of Spain central bank and start printing their own euro. No good government will let anyone take away their printing press without using some sort of counter measures including throwing in tons of regulations or in China case outright ban.  

All is not lost for cryptocurrency there are probably some form of cryptocurrency that will be issue by central bank government. I particularly like the blockchain technology behind some of the cryptocurrency which have wide application in the future. For example in area like digital art adoption of NFT(non fungible token) . I will stir clear from the cowboy world of cryptocurrency trading at least for now. They are too volatile to achieve mass adoption. Can one imaging the price of banana in crypto moving 20-40 percent through out the day?  There might be another IT expert sitting in his living room creating another cryptocurrency as I sing 🎤 Una Mattina Mi Sono Alzato O Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Bella Ciao Ciao Ciao.......

  (Image credit The Star Media) (Swamp of people going into Shenzhen) Bye Singapore! Hi Malaysia, 2026 This write-up was inspired by a video posted on YouTube. The video talks about Hong Kong hollowing out by Shenzhen. The recent phenomenon of Hong Kongers going to Shenzhen to play, eat and stay is gathering pace with close to 2 millions making the crossing to Shenzhen during the recent Easter Holiday. That is close to 30% of the current HK population leaving for Shenzhen. With deflation taking root in China, things are much cheaper in Shenzhen. The poor economy in HK is another push factor with Hong Kongers trading down their consumption. One traveller from HK mentions his spending in the mainland only cost him 1/3 of the usual price he paid in Hong Kong. Hong Kongers are shopping at Sam’s Club in Shenzhen buying everything from groceries to electronics. The commentator interviewed restaurants and shop owners in HK, most experienced a 30% drop in sales during the holiday.  *The video

  (Credit: Yahoo Finance; Last index high of 3900 in 2007, 16 years and counting. Lost decade of Singapore Market) I spent two nights thinking about this write up since it is a subject close to my heart. The passion and concern I had for our stock market are real. I hope SGX can see my commentary in a positive light. It is about solving problem that matters, no witch-hunting was intended. During my last monthly update. I am critical about SGX for not doing enough to promote the vibrancy of our stock market. After the blog, I have been getting more SGX senior executives looking at my LinkedIn profile. I hope people at SGX can see it as constructive criticism. I want to make my point of view clear before anyone get an impression that I am grinding my axe on our stock market. I love Singapore market, I am also a bull on Singaporean companies. How could I not love our stock market where I allocate most of my investment? The declining interest in our stock market did not happen overnight, i

  (Image credit : Netflix ; Lily Collins in Emily in Paris) (Personal photo : The iconic Arc de Triomphe) (Personal Photo: The street where wallet got murdered) Le Non-Dit Des Sociétés Cotées(The unspoken language of listed companies)*pardon me, google translate In the popular Netflix romcom drama, Emily in Paris, Lily Collins portrayed Emily Cooper, an American marketing executive sent by her US company to their subsidiary in Paris to give an American perspective to marketing. Without knowing a word of French or local culture, she embarked on a difficult journey of communicating with her colleagues and clients, in which it resulted in miscommunication and her being the butt of the joke. Emily assumed everyone in Paris could or wanted to communicate in English. She was forced to learn the language in class so as to communicate well with her colleagues and clients. It is important to understand the language of choice in the area one operates so as to be able to communicate effectively i
