Common Between Enron And Bitcoin

I was at a Melbourne Cup luncheon yesterday, and someone asked me why I do not write about Bitcoin.

But the truth is that given the attention Bitcoin has garnered over the past 5 years – I have barely written anything more on it.

During the period the price of Bitcoin has been very volatile, and every move has been accompanied with millions of words written by the mainstream press as well as the more respected blog writers.

Take a look at the 5-year graph below:

The value of a single bitcoin rose from nearly 0 in 2016 to over 25,000 AUD in late 2017. Since then it has been very volatile, now relatively steady in the range around AUD 9,000 mark.

Lots of people came on TV and explained all the reasons why it was where it was that point in time.

2 Things You Should Know About Common Between Enron And Bitcoin

1. I never give any investment advice, or offer an opinion that could be construed as an investment advice.

Many friends who knew that I scored the only 100% mark ever in the sloggiest finance course in my MBA would not believe either of those too reasons. And, they would press me for an opinion. Perhaps they had money riding on it.

Some, the wiser lot, even took my unwillingness and inability to offer a point of view as a sign, and made the decision which turned out to be right for them. A few even thanked me. Yet, I claim no credit for saving them a buck, or two.

I was merely stating a fact –
