The Government is set to table the Cryptocurrency and Regulation of Official Digital Currency Bill, 2021 in the Parliament shortly and the clamour surrounding the mining and trading of cryptocurrencies has only grown louder. Politicians, legal experts, and the cryptocurrency industry at large, have been involved in an intense debate, which has seen many experts find loopholes that start with the understanding of this space followed by the trading process in general.
For many investors, Cryptocurrency is often looked at as an abstract investment, not something that belongs in any particular asset class and with very little clarity about the processes involved, it is often considered to be unviable, because the right information might only be available at a premium. Many are unable to relate to the kind of investments made by Tesla and other big corporations in this space. There may be millions of articles listed on the internet, each explaining the process of making an investment, however one can get lost in too much information and end up more confused than before.
But, what if someone was able to take you through the process step-by-step and make it accessible for you, the investor? With our Masterclass on the How to Trade in Cryptocurrency - A starter’s guide with AVP-Marketing at WazirX, Pareen Lathia, you’ll be able to kick-start your Cryptocurrency investment journey or at the very least develop a basic understanding of how to go about it. By participating, you'll be able to understand the risk profiles of bitcoins and its alternatives, the various cryptocurrencies, the trading interface, how to pick the right cryptocurrency to make an investment and how much money you should divert to its purchase.

What do companies like Sony, Yahoo, Microsoft, Marriotts, Facebook, Twitter have in common? They have all been victims of cyberattacks. Experts estimate that there will be a cyberattack once every 11 seconds in 2021, to compare, in 2016 there was a cyberattack once every 40 seconds. Dealing with a cyberattack comes at a huge price and is expected to cost economies USD 6.1 trillion, annually. You could be a nation, a company or an individual, but in today’s hyper-connected world, everybody is at risk of being a victim of a cyberattack.
Organisations have typically looked at cybersecurity as something only to be dealt with by IT Managers using a garden variety of firewalls and other technological tools often classified as cyber mumbo-jumbo. However, a cyber-secure environment is not just a product of tools, it is an approach and mindset that has to be integrated into every aspect of an organisation’s online conduct.
A startup faces many challenges across the board, from fund-raising to prioritizing their major spends. As an entrepreneur, it would be easy to believe that cyberattacks would be something faced by larger companies who have more to lose. Unfortunately, a cybercriminal only looks for opportunities and vulnerabilities, exploiting either one to move in for a kill. Case in point, in September 2020, New York based, cyber threat detection startup Cygilant was hit by a Ransomware attack and their data appeared on the dark web which was later removed but by then the damage was already done.
A cyberattack can derail businesses easily and not every company has what it takes to recover from one. Fortunately, there is much that one can do to create an organisation that is resilient and secure from cyberattacks and especially as a startup, it can be something that makes you stand out from the crowd, making you more investment-friendly. Learn more about how this can be done by joining our Masterclass on Making Cybersecurity Your Competitive Advantage conducted by Ajay Singh, Corporate Advisor, Former CEO and Author of Cyberstrong: A Primer on Cyber Risk Management for Business Managers, on 17th March, between 5.30-7.00 pm!

Love it or don’t understand it, cryptocurrency has been in the news for all the wrong reasons, first with bitcoin values against the dollar constantly fluctuating and then the Indian government and others, considering or driving at an absolute ban. The future of cryptocurrency in India might be uncertain at this point in time, however, the world over, this new-age currency is starting to gain more traction and acceptance. Just recently, Goldman Sachs restarted its cryptocurrency desk, with plans to look into the possibility of a bitcoin exchange traded fund. Earlier this year, Tesla announced its plans to accept bitcoin as payment and has also purchased USD 1.5 billion worth of the currency.
So what is driving this interest in bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin and other types of cryptocurrency? Many expect the hype to wear off in time, but some expect that these currencies will take over the world some day, leading to a kind of parallel economy.
There is no question that cryptocurrency is complex, exciting, and to most governments it means decentralization and therefore, an instrument of anarchy. To cut a long story short, cryptocurrency is hugely misunderstood, while coming with far too many variables, and to set the record straight, Sidharth Sogani, Founder and CEO of CREBACO, will be taking us through its various aspects in our Masterclass on Demystifying Cryptocurrencies & Bitcoin.
CREBACO is a global leader in research intelligence and due diligence focused on the blockchain and cryptocurrency industry. By fostering an in-depth understanding of the cryptocurrency landscape, they aim to regulate, and promote a safer approach to considering investments in this space.
In this Masterclass, Sidharth will tackle the governance and regulatory aspects, explain to us why we need to give Cryptocurrency a fair hearing, discuss its emergence as a Global Asset Class, and lots more that you’ll have to tune in to find out!
Join us for this free and open to all session on 10th March, between 5.30 - 7.00 pm! To register, simply RSVP here: http://bit.ly/MAAcademyCrypto_01
