Mexican billionaire: "Stay away from fiat money ... invest in Bitcoin"

 


Mexico's third richest person sent a New Year's message to the Bitcoin community on Christmas Eve.

One of Mexico's richest men, Ricardo Salinas Pliego, posted a Christmas video advising his nearly one million Twitter followers to buy Bitcoin.

In his message, he gives three pieces of advice before asking his followers to retweet and share:

“Stay away from fiat money. Whether it's the dollar, the euro, or the yen - it's all the same. It is counterfeit money made up of paper lies. The central banks are producing more than ever before. "

The latter, as pointed out by the entrepreneur, has caught the world's attention, particularly in the United States, where banknote printing has increased since the pandemic began. The increasing spending of dollars has resulted in the greatest inflation in the United States in 39 years.

Inflation is a measure that reflects the currency's loss of purchasing power and shows its depreciation against other, stronger currencies, as is the case in Latin American countries. This situation has encouraged the buying of cryptocurrencies to preserve the value of the savings.

In December 2020, he spoke about Bitcoin in an interview with Giovanni Pigni from Cointelegraph. The interview started with Salinas telling the story of how he first heard about Bitcoin:

“I was invited to a conference in New York ... There were several sessions, and one of the sessions this guy from Grayscale showed up. And he gave us a talk about Bitcoin and how it will conquer the world…. That immediately caught my attention. "

Later in the interview, Salinas said:

“I had a big party, very happy with my best investment ever, but we always return to the scene of the crime, don't we? When the price dropped to $ 10,000 I thought, 'Well, now it's more reasonable,' and I bought something at that point. and then it went down to $ 6,000, I bought a little more, and there I am, where our average is now at $ 9,000, and I'm not done yet. I will not sell it. I think I'll sit here another five or ten years. "

Other billionaire entrepreneurs who also recommend buying Bitcoin warn that one must be careful with this. Tim Diper, for example, advises against investing all of your savings in cryptocurrency in order to have a diversified investment portfolio.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...
