We need to talk about crypto

Where is the value in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum? Can they help returns without introducing too much risk? Is Bitcoin getting more stable? If you want to invest, where do you do it? Tom Rodgers is a freelance financial writer and analyst specialising in cryptocurrency. He is the former Head of Research for ETC Group, which runs the biggest Bitcoin fund in Europe.

Don’t invest in cryptocurrency unless you’re prepared to lose all the money you invest.

This is not financial advice. The reason it’s not financial advice is because it’s not tailored to you. We explain the principles of building wealth but if you want personalised advice, it’s worth speaking to a financial advisor. As with everything financial, please do your own research. We really encourage that because no one cares more about your money than you and if you learn the basics then it will change your life.
