Here’s a little recap of our Live Session on “Investing for Passive Income” held on September 22nd. The webinar was hosted by Nitin Agarwal, Founder of B21 Invest.

AMA Session:

Q — While investing in Crypto, what is your strategy? Can you share some of your experiences?

A — I am a believer in Crypto and I believe that it is the next asset class. So, while I have kept some of my money in safety instruments but the rest of the money I do invest it in Crypto keeping it for the long-term. I look at the price and buy the coins if there’s an opportunity but I don’t’ buy and sell it frequently meaning I do not trade.

Q — How to invest in Crypto?

A — It is very easy to invest in Crypto. There are many platforms available including B21 where you can go and invest easily. It’s better to start investing small.

Q — Harshit: Is it good to hold crypto for long as in more than 2 years?

A — That’s how I would do it. In a shorter period of time, the prices always go up and down but if you look for a longer horizon, it is going be the winner.

Q — Golden Janek: Old Solid Coins or New Coins, your suggestions?

A — It would be best to do your own research by looking at the project, the team, know your strategy, and then invest. Coming to me, I look at the older ones, I hold them for a longer period of time, and because I like to support the ecosystem so I do try to play on shorter ones as well.

Q — Bharat Ogirala: Based on your experience, where do you foresee Bitcoin going in the next 2 years?

A — I think in 2 years, we’ll see more and more businesses and individuals using Crypto as an asset class, it will be also be used as a transactional currency.

Q — Shivangi Khanna​: Staking how does it work on B21?

Q — Janek: Are investment platforms safe to keep crypto?

A — There are many platforms for that, it’s better to do your own research and then keep your assets in the place where you trust.

Q — Manoj: How are Crypto and DeFi expected to transform business in the future?

A — It is bringing more competition in the financial space. Banks are becoming creative, regulators are becoming creative and it is going to be easy to invest slowly and steadily.
