Explore the topic of crypto and traditional markets, exchange with your peers and find new investment opportunities for yourself.
What will 2020 hold for cryptocurrencies? Will it be a better investment than stocks? Should you put all your eggs into one basket by looking at crypto or perhaps stocks may seem more appealing?
The price of Bitcoin and other crypto-assets drastically decreased in 2018. Now, in the beginning of 2020 and almost 2 years later, Bitcoin and other crypto-assets have proven its fierce value in the industry, and investor faith seems to be restored in the currency.
In 2019, the IPO market with its high-profile companies like Uber or Lyft surprised us with disappointing returns. However, 2020 should be an active year for the IPO market with a solid list of companies that could go public. We look into Palantir, Airbnb, Rackspace, Instacart, Robinhood.
The panelists will analyze and discuss the crypto and traditional markets reflecting on the best investment opportunities in 2020 and why them.
