Happy new year!  Welcome to our Summer Series of archive blogs from the past year.  We'll be featuring our favourite shows from 2024 until we return in Feb'2025.  Thanks for watching/listening.
What do crypto investors look like, and do they invest differently to the rest of the market?  What challenges does the Advice Industry face in trying to service this asset class?  This week we welcome Anna Vennonen, Research Consultant from Coredata to discuss some research conducted in the area of Cryptocurrency and how the Australian Advice Industry is or is not keeping pace with this fast evolving space.  The results are fascinating, if not at times, somewhat disturbing.  It's not all about the coin and the underpinning blockchain that dominates discussions and as always, its caveat emptor, buyer beware.
Anna has also asked us to append a few links that will be of interest to viewers/listeners, so here you go!

We recently interviewed Ben Simpson from Collective Shift at the IFPA conference, and this topic was so compelling, we had to have him back on the show for a full interview.  Today we cover of the basics of what crypto and Bitcoin is all above.  We also love free, so we're handing out a lot of free information and education that you'll be able to learn about this interesting yet still new way of investing - even though it is over 12 years old now.  We are still skeptics here at Dollars and Making Sense, but we are always willing to learn new ways.

A voice from the past, Henry Jennings from Marcus Today returns to reprise our first forays into DMS over 3 years ago!  And to get the tongues wagging, we venture down some old content and rediscover our musings over Brexit, Bitcoin and the current state of the global markets.  Henry is a favoured commentator on many a TV show and commentators including Oz Biz, Kochie, ABC News Breakfast and SBS, and its a real pleasure to have him back.

Following last week's discussion about FinTech - financial technology, a natural follow on in this week's show is all about Bitcoin and blockchain technology.  What is all the fuss?  And are we really going to be exchanging digital currencies in the near future!


You'll be amazed to hear during the show that Bitcoin is but one of more than 2000 digital coins in the market today - and how does blockchain fit in all of this?

Dollars & Making Sense, a weekly show about finance, money and investing, hosted by Ray Trevisan of OTG Capital, and joined by our regular contributors Karen Hadjinicola and Lisa Ellem, don't forget Ray's weekly market wrap covering the ups and downs of local and global markets.
