The Altcoin Rises

O n May 11 2020, the crypto world experienced the phenomena knows as Bitcoin halving . For those who are still a little looney-toons regarding this phenomena, here's the lowdown . Moral of the story is that, as the Bitcoin supply decreased and it's 21 million market cap slowly approached, it was widely accepted that the low supply and high demand will increase the price of the cryptocurrency back to its previous highs. Basic business right? Wrong! Source: Equity Trust Company BTC prices actually fell and after briefly holding steady, are only just rising above the 10000 USD range. Surprise eh? Well, we are not done yet. Because while the most valuable crypto coin wasn't showing it's expected gains, some other cryptocurrencies shot to outer space. There was no SpaceX rocket nor a Tesla Roadster involved. These "altcoins" bumped up in their market value thanks to the entire underlying system of cryptocurrency: investor speculation.  But what exactly are these ...

The McLaren Speedtail is Egregiously Elegant

Form follows function.   That has been McLaren's mantra ever since its humble beginnings less than a decade ago. If producing a  supercar  as your first ever car can be called humble. They made the F1 in the '90s and partnered with Mercedes-Benz to give birth to the SLR's with its various editions in the early 2000s but the proper start of the organization only began in 2010, with a car name more apt for the Musk family, the MP4-12C. However, in just 8 years the brand has gone from strength to strength. And massively improved their naming system. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the pinnacle of McLaren Automotive: the Speedtail. Source: Google Images The Speedtail is a part of McLaren's Ultimate Series lineup and it's the evolution of McLaren's DNA which began with the 12C, followed by the 650 S, the 500 series, P1, the 720 S and the Senna. As you can see, the cars in McLaren's lineup not only became a lot easier to pronounce but more importantly stuck to t...

So you actually did it. You read more about Bitcoin Halving. You felt now was the time for you to shine and decided to invest your money into the crypto market. You thought of buying some Ethereum (ETH), maybe a little Ripple (XRP), but you said 'Nah. To hell with it', and decided to go for the real o.g. Bitcoin (BTC). Source: CoinDesk You signed up with a respectable broker who and now you have some BTC stored in a fancy digital wallet. Life is good until I tell you that your wallet isn't secure. You panik, yes, panik. "Really?", you say. And I'm like "Yes, really. You could lose all your holdings online in a snap ". Your panik intensifies. Source: Twitter Mon Dieu! My money! Non! While it's understandable to worry in a weirdly french way (unless you are french...in that case 'Bonjour'),  do remember that no security is always 100% safe. Blockchain tech is the safest that is out there, but that doesn't mean that there aren't big...

What Next For Aston Martin?

S acking your CEO is a great way to boost investor confidence. Just ask Aston Martin. After their CEO, Andy Palmer, was 'arrghed' of the 'ship' a-la Boss Baby style, the British brand's share price went up over 30 %. To any business shareholder reading this, this may seem like a quick way to make money . That is if you conveniently ignore the fact that under Mr Palmer's tenure Aston's share fell by 98%.  Source: Livemint But sure, any improvement is a good improvement, right? Improvement is a key part of the Aston Martin story. The Gaydon based manufacturer has gone bankrupt almost 8 times in its 107-year history ( Someone should give them the 'Trump: Art of the Deal' book). Thus, in 2014, Andy Palmer was brought in to do some ' improvements'. This Andy here wasn't going to spend his time writing his name on Woody and Buzz Lightyear.  He was tasked to do the good old 'switcheroo' on the company's fortunes. The English man had ...
