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).

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

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

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

A faucet is basically the monocled-top-hat-wearing-tux-rocking name of a tap. Faucet, tap, same thing but different name, kind of like having twins (where you probably love one more than the other). At the end of the day, a faucet is a device that controls the flow of liquid or gas from a pipe or container. So a Bitcoin faucet is basically a device (in this case a website(s)) that controls the flow of bitcoin to its users. It basically transfers free bitcoin to its users. Yeah, free bitcoins. You just sign up, watch advertisements, perform surveys, fill captchas, even press a very obvious 'Roll' button and et voila, you, the lucky user has now received some sweet sweet Bitcoin. Ka-ching from a faucet. Now, why are these faucets so kind in giving away free bitcoin? Well, they know that to really make any money on their platform, you have to be a dedicated user with a decent referral count. That gives them access to your and/or referrals' data (basically what most webs
