Our COO & Co-Founder, Sukhi Jutla, was recently quoted in CCN article “No Santa Claus Rally as Crypto Analysts Remain Extremely Bearish on Bitcoin”.
She told CCN: “As we edge towards the end of the year, the global landscape continues to look volatile caused primarily by the political uncertainties plaguing the UK with Brexit, impeachment charges against Trump in the US, and still unclear regulations around cryptocurrency uses across the financial landscape. These factors are not providing businesses with the clarity they need in terms of how and if they can utilize crypto in their business models.”
She added: “I predict it will be a slow burn and we’re unlikely to see BTC crossing the $10,000 mark as we close out this year.”

Our COO & Co-Founder, Sukhi Jutla, was recently quoted in Goal Crazy article “15 Ways Writing Your Goals Helps You Achieve More”.
She told Goal Crazy: “I always write down my goals. Writing down your goals helps to solidify your thought process and also frees up space in your mind where you always have many thoughts that can sometimes conflict with each other. Pulling out your goals onto paper and seeing it on black and white helps me to double down on what I am focusing on and acts a mental cue as to where I should be spending my time and focus.

Seeing my goals written down serves as a daily reminder of what I am working on and why. In today’s digital world where everything is designed to rob you of your time, focus, and attention, it is vital you have practical techniques in place that constantly remind you of what you want to work on.

As ultimately, where you put your time and attention is what will increase and flourish in your life. So if you are constantly reminding yourself of your goals that are written down and you look at them on a daily basis, this will act as a subtle and gentle cue for you to refocus on those goals.”

Our COO and Co-Founder Sukhi Jutla has been quoted in this recent article titled “From Libra to Flexa: is it time the franchise world got more on board with cryptocurrency?” written by GlobalFranchiseMagazine.com 
Sukhi says for Global Franchise Magazine:
Although banks and governments have reacted to Libra with scepticism, this project has legs. “Most firms need to see other well-known brands using cryptocurrencies before they take that leap of faith,” 
“In this case, the fact that Visa, Mastercard, and PayPal have confirmed they will be accepting Libra payments is a giant vote of confidence for mainstream adoption.”

Gary McFarlane, cryptocurrency expert at UK investment platform Interactive Investor, provides his thoughts on Brexit and bitcoin while canvassing the views of other experts.
In this great InsideBitcoin.com article “How Will Brexit Impact the Pound and Demand for Bitcoin?”
Our COO and Co-founder Sukhi Jutla is amongst great experts sharing their thoughts on the subject. Sukhi says: 
“A digital currency still in its infancy, Bitcoin has defied critics to become a well-respected store of value, not dissimilar from commodities such as gold. Historically, in times of uncertainty, many people will rush to the safety of commodities. This is why it is hardly surprising, as Brexit looms, that the price of gold has been inching up daily. Gold is often thought of as a safe haven, and a way to minimise risk. It’s real, liquid, and a store of value. Bitcoin is on a similar trajectory; although there is still a lot of contention between governments about whether Bitcoin can be viewed as a real currency, they have relented and agreed that it can be seen as a store of value.
So, with the value of the pound likely to plummet when we leave the EU, I anticipate the price of Bitcoin will only surge. It is seen as a store of value, which can be traded quickly. Though there is an increasing number of businesses that are now accepting Bitcoin as payment (think Brewdog Beer or digital books from Publica), it is still seen as a stable and reliable medium of exchange.
In the coming months, we will continue to see erratic behaviour across the money markets, most notably the value of the pound. With this in mind, I predict there will be a flurry of activity in the gold and Bitcoin markets, driving both of these assets market prices upwards, and providing a flight to safety in the event of Brexit.”
