Crypto crime of the past has involved muggings, kidnappings, and physical threats. I’ll talk about that in this video as well as the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange.
Some of these bad things have happened because bad dudes want other people’s crypto. How would we fix this? The NSA tracks Bitcoin users. This could help. But also secure storage could be a solution. Regulated custodians and cold wallets would add extra bit of security. Regulation to some extent could help as well.
You could do a McAfee stunt and hire a small army to keep your crypto safe. Or arm yourself with a few semi-automatic weapons. But there’s one problem with that. It’s not practical. Consider the more practical options.
I thought that the ZSE was a place for insider trading and dodgy tactics. These tactics are used by those in connected financial circles. This is one of the things that need to change as Zimbabwe moves forward. If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll have noticed I uploaded an IGTV video on the day MDC alliance was demonstrating in Harare. Just to give you a bit of an update as to what happened then and since then. Again, I am impartial as to what happens; I think both of the main parties could help the ailing economy here, which is what I care about mostly really. As I said before I know Nelson Chamisa is more partial to utilizing blockchain technology so I like that about him. That being said ED is very business savvy and has made significant advances in getting the coming back on track so either way works for me. So the army came in and started firing live ammo at the demonstrators, 6 people were killed. MDC alliance has approached the high court with what they claim to be proof that the election results were faked. I guess we’ll wait and see what happens now.
