This week Bitcoin and property are going head-to-head Following on from last week’s episode, Rob & Rob are back to talk more about property vs Bitcoin, and where Bitcoin could potentially form part of your investment portfolio. Like any investment option there are pros and cons to everything. For example, Bitcoin and gold are defences against inflation whereas property is an attacker. So, is property still the safest investment or is it under threat to Bitcoin? Tune in to find out. In the news This week’s news story comes from the Evening Standard and the headline reads, ‘UK’s ‘eye-popping’ pace of recovery stokes staff shortages and inflation fears’. This is from a survey that’s showing the strongest growth in business activity for 24 years! So basically, now that some lockdown restrictions have been lifted, more people have been going out spending. And, with the increase in demand but a shortage of staff, the hospitality industry fears a rise in inflation with talks of an £8 pint (at least in London) could be on its way. Hub Extra For this week’s Hub Extra, our resource for you this week is simply YouTube to carry on your Bitcoin learning. It’s a great place to learn more about the topics we’ve touched on over the past couple of episodes so if you simply search for ‘getting started with Bitcoin’ that’s a good place to start. However, if you’re wanting something a little more advanced, take a look at BitBoy Crypto, CoinsKid or Altcoin Daily.
