Why is Crypto Crashing?

Cryptocurrency is often lauded by its enthusiastic followers as the alternative safe haven, the digital gold, the inflation hedge for the masses. Well if that’s so why is it crashing? This article will take a look at the reasons.

Crypto is so volatile that the lure of quick and easy gains is often too easy to resist. Wrapped up in the technological mystique of a digital asset that can be traded easily worldwide without middlemen and restrictions, it’s easy to think crypto is infallible.

The allure of crypto, a kind of digital ‘Robinhood’ is that it allows the masses; the ‘little’ man and woman to participate in activities that were once only the purvey of the rich. This fundamental nature of crypto is the first reason why crypto crashes.

Short-term investors

Whenever a large group of people pile into an asset, one thing usually happens; the price goes up.

When more short-term investors see the price rising, they too pile in pushing the price up more. When the price reaches its peak, early short term investors sell for quick gains, causing the price to plummet.

Those that entered late in the game are left holding their expensively purchased asset hoping for another day when the asset will go to the moon.

Unlike traditional stocks and shares, crypto by its very nature attracts investors that are looking for quick returns.

They are often the first to bail out at the first sniff of a profit. This short-term investor mindset will often cause crypto to crash.

Fear and Greed

Yes, fear and greed are emotions we can all relate to. The intense desire to want something, the craving for wealth at all cost is often insatiable.

However, this is not a simple moral debate. Financial indexes such as the Fear and Greed index highlight effectively how human emotions can cause high volatility in markets.

Cryptocurrency is not immune from such market sentiment. Humans are amazingly predictable when acting en-masse.

When the crowd is fearful, the majority will sell causing the price to fall. When they are greedy they will buy, causing the price to rise.

If you combine a short-term investment mindset with a fearful or greedy investor you create a highly combustible mix.

Larger Market Conditions

External macro events can cause crypto to crash

Cryptocurrency traders will often create fancy technical analysis charts hoping to predict the future performance of an asset.

In reality, such charts may be able to reveal certain cycles in the asset in question but often they are limited in their view of macro conditions that can cause dramatic price movement of digital assets.

Larger market events that can cause crypto to crash include excessive regulation, rise in interest rates, recessions and wars to name but a few.

Combine a few of the above and you can be almost certain your crypto will crash, no matter what your technical analysis chart says.

The Economic Cycle

https://www.slideserve.com/yoko/macro-economics-the-big-picture-powerpoint-ppt-presentation

We have extremely short memories. Every new generation thinks that they are the ones who will change the world and make it a better place.

Unfortunately, history has an uncanny ability to repeat itself. The economic cycle can be thought of as the rising and falling of a market economy.

What this means in simple terms is that periods of expansion, peak, contraction and trough can be roughly predicted. In 1997, the Tech Bubble burst.

In 2008, the Subprime mortgage crisis or Credit Crunch. In 2020, we had the Covid-19 lockdown recession. The pattern is clear, every ten years or so, the world economy is likely to collapse, no matter how well it was doing previously.

If you are holding crypto through such a contraction period, your crypto is likely to crash too.

Manipulation

In every market, there are ‘bad actors’. People who wish to game the system and make maximum profit on the backs of others.

Crypto is no different from traditional markets in that large holders of assets can purposely cause the rise and fall of assets by selling and buying at specific moments in time.

The difference with crypto is that it lacks regulation to prevent excessive market manipulation.

This means that rogue projects can be set up overnight, bolstered by huge marketing or a celebrity front person, pumping the price of the said asset to the moon only for the founders to sell it all at the peak.

This inevitably causes the price to crash; the classic ‘Rug pull’.

Final Thoughts

So, in theory, crypto is a tool that has the potential to be the digital currency of the future. Decentralised and unmanipulated by governments or individuals.

But the unfortunate reality is that human nature has too much of a bearing on the crypto market.

Without somehow detaching itself from the peaks and troughs of our deep-rooted fear and greed, it will continue to be extremely volatile. With that comes great opportunities and also great danger. Tread carefully.

How to Spot A Scam Crypto Project – How Does Your Favourite Project Score?

With so many crypto projects, tokens and coins out there, how do you separate the projects with potential from those that are likely to be a scam or rug pull? This article gives you a simple scoring system to help you separate the wheat from the chaff.

Firstly, we need to say that all crypto is extremely volatile and there are no guarantees. As a result, this article is not financial advice, it is simply a fun tool to be used for educational purposes only. Here we go…

Score 1 point – The Whitepaper.

Does your prospective project have a whitepaper? The whitepaper should identify how the project works and list the ‘Tokenomics’ i.e; how will the project tokens be split.

Deduct 5 points if your project has no whitepaper.

Add 1 point if your project has a whitepaper.

Score 1 point – The Founder(s).

It is important that you can identify the founders of the project. Are the founders anonymous? If so, this is not a good sign. If the project has a whitepaper, the founder(s) should be found there. A pseudonym does not count, you need to have the founder’s genuine full name.

Add 1 point if the founder(s) are not anonymous.

Deduct 1 point if the founder is anonymous.

Score 2 points – Founders History – Google and Bing.

Not only should the project have a visible founder but that founder should have some verifiable history as an entrepreneur.

Yes, first-time entrepreneurs can be successful but a true entrepreneur should have some history in Google that indicates they have some knowledge in business. DO NOT rely on Linkedin, Twitter and Facebook to verify the founders!

You really need to look at Google and probably an additional search engine like Bing to see what comes up when you type in the founder’s full name.

Also, be on the lookout for press articles or old search results of over two years or more that talk about the founder in question.

If there are none then why? If there are some but they are negative i.e. convictions, history of scams, tons of negative reviews etc, then you need to seriously consider staying clear of this project.

Does the founder have a history before the start of the project in question? If the founder has no history of running a company or no projects are listed, at best you could have a first time entrepreneur at worst a scam project.

If there are multiple founders you should check all of them.

Add 2 points if the founder has historical listings of at least 2 years old in Google and Bing.

Deduct 1 point if the founder has no historical listings of at least 2 years old in Google and Bing.

Deduct 1 point if the listings are negative.

Spot a scam crypto – evaluate the website

Score 3 points – The Website.

The website is a quick and easy way to see if the project in question can deliver what they say.

Do not be tricked into thinking a fancy webpage means a genuine project. First things first you need to check the age of the website domain name.

Go to https://www.whois.com/

Type in the web address in the box and look at “Registered on” if the website is less than 6 months old you could have at best a brand new project that is about to burst on the scene or at worst a scam project that was quickly set up in order to vanish in a puff of smoke.

If the project is less than 6 months old deduct 1 point.

If the project is 6 months to a year old add 1 point.

If the project is 1 year to two years old add 2 points.

If the project is 2 years or more old add 3 points.

Genuine projects take time to build, if a project’s website has been rushed out quickly it may be a fly by night project.

Score 1 point – Website functionality.

The next thing to consider is, will the project deliver? If the website contains any kind of functionality, it may indicate the project has the skill to deliver on its promises.

If the website is just a single splash page with no functionality, the project may be very early stage and speculative at best and a rug pull at worst.

Does the website do anything? Can you log in, register and perform any activity related to the project. Is the project website more than a single page?

If yes, (the website does something) add 1 point.

If the website is a single static page and offers no functionality deduct 1 point.

Spot a crypto scam – Is the promise reasonable?

Score 3 points – Reasonable promises.

Does the project make reasonable promises? Bogus projects will often over promise and under deliver. This can make it difficult to discern genuine projects from potential rug pulls.

A genuine project will NEVER guarantee gains. If your potential project is guaranteeing gains or yields then you need to be very, very cautious.

Is there a risk warning? If there is no risk warning and the project is simply hyping the project, this could be a red flag.

A genuine project should alert the potential investor of the risks of cryptocurrency. This warning should appear prominently on the project’s website.

Does the project promise any gains? if so deduct 3 points.

Does the project have a risk warning, (warns you of potential losses)? If yes, add 3 points.

If no risk warning then deduct 3 points.

Score 1 point – Is the Token or Coin genuine and on the blockchain?

Due to the nature of cryptocurrency, it may be possible for unscrupulous founders to set up duplicate tokens with the same or similarly named projects as genuine projects. They may also set up websites with similar domain names.

Always check the blockchain to ensure you are looking at the genuine project and the real token for that project. You should find the Policy ID of your project and compare it with that recorded on chain. If they don’t match you could have a scam token.

For Binance based tokens or assets.

https://www.bscscan.com/tokens

For Ethereum assets:

https://etherscan.io/tokens

For Cardano based assets:

https://cardanoscan.io/tokens

Add 1 point – You can verify your project’s Policy ID on the project website and blockchain.

Deduct 10 points – The project’s Policy ID cannot be verified on the project website and blockchain.

And there you have it! Add up your points, the maximum score is 12 points

Check your Score.

Negative score – You may need to stay away from this project – Very High Risk.

0-6 – Very risky project, but maybe a first-time entrepreneur and early stage.

7-8 – A potentially good project with some warnings, be careful.

9-12 – The project shows great promise but you should be aware that all crypto is volatile.

Remember this is not financial advice. Hopefully, this article will give you an objective scoring system to evaluate projects.

After Shocking Diagnosis ‘Superhero’ Entrepreneur Hopes to ‘Help Cure Cancer with Crypto’.

Rather shockingly, it’s estimated that one in two people will be impacted by cancer. This is a scary statistic that is often denied and swept under the carpet. Pop Up World’s founder, Graham Jules has personally been impacted. Last month his wife Angela was diagnosed with multiple brain tumours, only two years prior his mother passed away from the same terrible disease. As a result, Jules founded the ‘Help Cure Cancer with Crypto’ initiative.

Jules is an entrepreneur that knows what it’s like to be an underdog and battle the impossible. In 2016 he famously battled multi-billion-dollar Superman creators Marvel and DC Entertainments Inc in a trade mark dispute over the word “Superhero” and the title of his start-up manual, “Business Zero to Superhero”. He subsequently won the dispute, and his ‘Superhero’ trademark was then officially registered, resulting in worldwide media coverage.

Diagnosis

Jules said, “Obviously, this is terrible news for us and our family. We are reeling from the implications of this latest diagnosis.

We are, however, determined that we continue with our goals and make something positive out of this awful situation”.

Angela agreed, “Yes, we want to make sure that we contribute something positive to fight this terrible illness, I‘m undergoing intensive radiation therapy to the brain at the moment, so we are determined to make this a success, we need everyone to sit up and take notice of this issue.”

Pop Up World and the Pop Up World Token

Recently, Jules launched Pop Up World and Pop Up World Token (PUW) a digital platform and cryptocurrency for underrepresented entrepreneurs on the Cardano Blockchain.

Jules commented, “I’ve always thought that cryptocurrency had the capability to offer so much more to society than just meme coins and dog pictures. Essentially, crypto allows for fundraising on a massive scale, offering its holders the capacity for large gains, not just the original developers”.

Yes, but recent crypto crashes and the question of volatility is always an issue with digital currency?

Jules responded, “Yes, volatility is always an issue, we all know that crypto is highly risky. But if you’re sitting on a bad investment or you’ve done really well, you can simply donate your underperforming or performing crypto assets to Pop Up World and we will aggregate all the various assets and distribute them to cancer causes.

Why not put your more speculative digital assets to a good cause? We have also donated 1 billion PUW tokens to this fund, so by supporting Pop Up World Token (PUW) not only are you supporting entrepreneurs, you’re helping fund vital cancer causes too. If you don’t yet have any crypto assets simply support the Pop Up World token”.

“The added benefit is that we will still be helping ground-breaking entrepreneurs on our Pop Up World platform. In particular, I also want to invite medical start-ups to apply on our Investor Connector app, where we will list their pitch and proposal for free and distribute it to VCs and Angels. Let’s take action and Help Cure Cancer with Crypto!”

Final Thoughts

1 billion in crypto to worldwide cancer charities and fundraising for medical start-ups, this is certainly a huge battle cry from the underdog entrepreneur. We wish his wife and family all the best.

Should You Incorporate Your Business Or Start As A Sole Trader?

In this article, we are going to look at company registration and why you should consider incorporating your business.

In the UK you can set up a Limited Company (Ltd) and in the USA a LLC or C-Corp. Either way, we give you the rundown on why entrepreneurs should consider setting up a corporate body for their start-ups.

Company incorporation is a legal method of registering your business. Essentially, you are creating a separate legal entity from yourself.

What this means is your new company will be treated as though it’s an ‘individual’ in its own right. Setting up a separate legal entity may be advantageous for a number of reasons, we highlight some of them here.

Legal Action

Setting up a a sole trader can leave you legally exposed

An incorporated business can be sued in its own right. What this means for you as an entrepreneur is it offers some level of protection should someone decide to take action against your business.

As a sole trader if someone were to sue they could lay claim to your personal assets. Your house, your car and other personal assets could be at risk if the other party were to win.

As a sole trader, you are personally liable should things go wrong. As a company, only the assets of the company are at risk.

The only exception to this is fraud, if you are found to be a fraudulent entrepreneur you will not be able to hide behind a corporate body and you may be found personally liable in such cases.

Debt

An incorporated company can take out debt or loans in its own right. This means that any loans will be recorded on the company’s credit file and not your own.

As a sole trader, all company debt will be recorded on your individual credit file and may hamper other applications for credit.

If things were to go wrong a sole trader would be fully liable for the debt. In contrast, the company itself would be liable and not necessarily the owners unless they signed a personal guarantee.

Investors and Shareholders

As an incorporated entity it’s relatively easy to allocate shares in your new company since the legal structure is created for that purpose.

This means investors can easily take a share in your business and their allocation can be easily recorded in the company register.

As a sole trader, there is no easy vehicle for an investor to take shares in your business although a partnership may be set up it could mean both you and the investor could be liable for any future obligations unless a detailed agreement is set up laying down exactly what the obligations are for each partner.

Tax

Company incorporation – There may be tax advantages

An incorporated body will pay tax on its profits, income minus operating costs (Corporation Tax).

Corporation tax may be considerably less than personal tax in many jurisdictions. A sole trader may pay personal income tax on their entire earnings.

Many of the tax rules are less advantageous for sole traders than they are for companies. In the UK, for example, Corporation tax is currently 19%, and the personal income tax rate is currently 20% for basic rate earners and 40% for higher earners.

Record keeping

Having separate bank accounts and records for your business adds a degree of protection should there be any queries further down the line regarding your income.

Since a corporation is a separate entity it cannot easily be argued that the income of your company is the entrepreneur’s personal income, a distinct line is drawn between company and personal.

A sole trader’s income is usually viewed as the income of the individual after allowable expenses, no convenient distinction is drawn.

A company will usually have to file accounts and other statutory forms including company tax returns. The directors of the company will have to perform statutory meetings such as board meetings.

There may be no such obligations on sole traders apart from filing relevant tax returns. Although at first glance the increased burden of paperwork may seem a disadvantage for companies, this may be offset by the ease with which loans and funding can be accessed for companies with filed accounts.

Sole traders would have a harder time securing loans and investments, even grants since they are often perceived as higher risk.

Professionalism and Image

Incorporation may help present a professional image

Put simply an incorporated business just looks more professional. In a competitive market image is everything. If all your competitors are incorporated you have to seriously ask yourself why you would want to set up as a sole trader.

Name Protection

Registering your company gives some protection to your company name but note it does not give total protection. When you incorporate your company, the name is required to be unique on the company register but remember it does not prevent someone from setting up shop with that company name as a sole trader! To protect your company name fully you should also trade mark your brand. As trade mark owner you can legally sue anyone who tries to use a name that is the same or similar to your own. A sole trader has no level of protection for their company name.

Final Thoughts

Of course, the final decision is yours, but hopefully, this article gives some food for thought.

Although, a sole trader business is less burdensome paperwork wise. As a fledgling entrepreneur, it may be too risky to enter the dog eat dog world of business, fully exposed to all potential risks and liabilities.

Top Ten Cryptocurrencies Explained

Should you trade mark your brand name? – How I won against a Multi- Billion Dollar Media Company.

Trade marking is a legal method of protecting your brand or company name. In this article we discuss why as an entrepreneur, it is important that you should consider trade marking your brand.

Intellectual Property

Intellectual Property – How to protect your ideas

Trade marks are a form of IP (Intellectual Property) protection. Owning intellectual property gives you a legal right over the name of a brand, the ideas written down or the things that are designed.

Owning intellectual property rights gives you the legal clout to prevent someone stealing your names, writing and designs.

Most importantly owning intellectual property gives you the right to make money from those intellectual property rights. So you can see, it’s important that every entrepreneur considers their IP early on in the start-up process.

There are different forms of IP protection of which Trade marks form one element. Different forms of IP protection include:

Trade marks

Patents

Designs

Copyright

Depending on the type of intellectual property you own, you should select the correct type of intellectual property protection.

A trade mark can protect a brand name or company name, whereas copyright would protect an original essay, novel or song. A patent would protect for example, an original invention.

Why Register?

Trade mark your brand – gives legal protection from IP theft

Owning intellectual property rights in any of these would give you legal protection from anyone using or stealing these properties. If someone wanted to use these properties you would have every right to charge them for the property you own.

Many companies make considerable sums of money by licensing their IP to manufacturers to make branded tee-shirts, merchandise etc. View licensing as a way to ‘rent’ out your IP to someone for a limited time in exchange for a fee (royalty).

There is a common misconception amongst entrepreneurs that simply registering a domain name or registering their business as a corporate body is a form of protecting their brand. Put plainly, this is simply incorrect.

If you have a particularly unique brand name, by all means secure the domain names and form the corporate entity but be aware that this alone will not prevent an individual from using a similar or exactly the same name! If you want solid legal protection you will need to trade mark your brand name.

Also, bear in mind there are some entrepreneurs who have formed a new company and begun marketing their brand only to be slapped with a lawsuit because they have infringed someone else’s trade mark.

This then results in having to scrap all the marketing materials, domain names and create new ones. All of this costs money and as entrepreneurs, money is often in short supply!

It’s also worth mentioning that investors will often look on favourably at start-ups who have their IP sorted and fully protected thus avoiding the problems mentioned.

The Power of Trade marks – Marvel and DC Entertainments INC

Marvel and DC Entertainments and the trade mark “Superheroes”

As an entrepreneur myself, I have experienced first-hand the power of trade marks. I will explain how protecting my brand name via a trade mark gave me the legal clout to protect and win over a multi-billion dollar media company!

The media company in question was Marvel and DC Entertainment Inc, (Now owned by Disney). Most people are aware of their brands; they are creators of Superman, Batman and the entire Marvel Universe. So, I am not exaggerating when I say these guys were and still are huge.

Way back in 2013, I was putting together a book, a start-up manual for entrepreneurs called Business Zero to Superhero. In the process of writing the book ,I thought it would be prudent to trade mark the brand name “Zero to Superhero”. In order to protect a rather unique brand name, or so I thought.

Fast forward a year or so (2014), I had enrolled in a graduate program to study Business Law (LLB) and out of the blue, I received a cease and desist letter and an opposition to my trade mark.

Marvel and DC were claiming that my trade mark “Zero to Superhero”, was an infringement on their existing mark, “Superheroes”. A two year battle ensued and finally (2016) Marvel and DC backed down and I retained the trade mark!

Trade mark Success

Business Zero to Superhero – Trade mark Success

But why did I win?

In my opinion, first and foremost registering the trade mark, gave me legal clout to pursue my assertion that ‘Zero to Superhero’ was an original brand not easily confused with the marks of Marvel and DC.

An unregistered mark would find it difficult to protect itself against claims from Marvel and DC regarding infringement. In fact many small publishers had previously been forced to back down and remove the word “Superheroes” from their published works.

By registering my mark, Marvel and DC had to follow the process of the Intellectual Property Office (IP protection in the UK) rather than simply issuing a cease and desist from their heavyweight lawyers.

Secondly, in my opinion Marvel and DC are in a bit of a legal bind with their trade mark “Superheroes”. By definition you can only trade mark a name that is unique and is not common in everyday use or ‘generic’.

Many argue and I agree that “Superheroes” is indeed a generic term that should not have been registered in the first instance. This may be the reason why Marvel & DC backed down rather than test the case in court.

So there, you have it. Seriously consider registering your brand. Once you have successfully trade marked you can display the ® symbol next to it, to denote a fully trade marked registration.

To register your brand in the UK go to the Intellectual Property Office or in the USA go to United States Patent and Trademark Office.

Please note, this article is not a substitute for legal advice, always seek advice about your particular case from a qualified lawyer in your jurisdiction.

My name is Graham Jules, I am a Business Law Graduate (LLB Hons), founder of Pop Up World. and Pop Up World Token.

Best way to Create a Crypto Cardano Wallet and Fund it with ADA – Easy Steps

When starting out in cryptocurrency it can be a bit confusing. In this quick ‘how to get started’ with Cardano guide we show you how to set up a Cardano wallet and fill it with crypto.

First things, first, what exactly is Cardano? Cardano is what is known as a blockchain. A blockchain is a digital ledger or a list that holds all details of all transactions that are carried out by users.

The advantage of a blockchain is that it cannot easily be altered, therefore any transactions that are carried out on the blockchain are considered ‘immutable’. Think of it as a list of transactions in your bank account.

Another advantage of a blockchain like Cardano is that it is ‘decentralised’, in effect the information or list of transactions stored on the blockchain is not stored in one place, the data is stored on thousands of computers across the globe. So, if a bad actor were to attack a single computer it would not affect the blockchain and transactions can carry on normally.

Cardano was started by ex Ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson and offers a way for individuals to transact with each other without middlemen (Banks etc) much like the original cryptocurrency and blockchain, Bitcoin.

Before you can begin making transactions on Cardano you will need something called a digital wallet. Your wallet will need to be Cardano compatible. It’s important that you use the right digital wallet for your chosen blockchain or you will lose your funds if you send them to an incompatible wallet.

Digital Wallets on Cardano.

Here are a number of suitable compatible wallets on Cardano:

Nami

https://www.lace.io/

CCvault (Eternl)

Yoroi

Daedalus

We would not recommend using Daedalus if you are new to Cardano as it requires downloading a full copy of the blockchain and takes a lot of time to set up.

Nami is very user friendly and easy, so we will use that to start off.

The downside of Nami is you can only Stake your Ada to one pool (their own), so if you wish to stake your Ada to other stake pools, choose Yoroi instead. The process is similar.

***UPDATE – 2025 – Nami wallet has been integrated into the Lace Wallet so you can use that instead.

(Staking is a method of earning rewards on your Ada, without transferring or locking up your Ada. You get free Ada for securing the network). For more information on staking you can read this article:

Staking Cardano

Create the wallet – Go to the Nami or Yoroi website:

https://namiwallet.io/

Select your required browser, Chrome for example.

You will then be prompted to add Nami to your browser

Click the Blue Button to add Nami to your browser.

Confirm adding the extension

And that’s it Nami Wallet should be added to your browser! Who said crypto was complicated!

Setting up your new wallet.

Click on ‘New Wallet’ and accept the terms and conditions. In the next part of this setup, your seed phrase will be created. Consider your seed phrase a confidential password that you should not give to anyone. If anyone gets hold of your seed phrase they can take all your valuable crypto and there will be no way you can get it back.

Write down your seed phrase and keep it in a secure place.

Nami wallet seed phrase – keep it secure!

Once you have written down your seed phrase select ‘next’ to continue.

You will then be prompted to enter your seed phrase to confirm that you have it down correctly. You can then enter your Account Name and a Password.

Congratulations, you have successfully created your wallet!

Funding your Wallet

Click the Nami extension in the top right of your browser and you should see your newly created wallet with zero balance. You will now need to fund your wallet with ADA (The native currency on Cardano).

In order to fund your wallet you’ll need to find a ‘receive address’ that can be used to fund your wallet. Think of a receive address as an account number to your wallet that allows someone to transfer ADA and Cardano tokens to your wallet.

To get a receive address to your wallet click on ‘Receive’ on your Nami wallet and copy the address.

Your receive address will look something like this: addr1q8w6k26wcuseysajmxqnna8mcs6l2f0wtytfzengteptv40zvjmn7ff5vc9sh3gnpcve7qh7ljsurups8zhnvep6cdus7dnwp6

To fund your wallet with ADA go to a centralised exchange like Coinbase, purchase ADA and SEND it to your wallet using the receive address you just copied.

Once you have ADA in your wallet, you can begin to transact on Cardano and purchase other native tokens using your wallet on Decentralised Exchanges (DEXs) like MuesliSwap, MinSwap, SundaeSwap, and WingRiders.

And you’re done! Don’t forget to pick up some Pop Up World Tokens (PUW) on the way!

Superhero Entrepreneur Launches Crypto for Underdog Start-ups.

Graham Jules is an entrepreneur that knows what it’s like to be an underdog. In 2016 he famously battled Superman creators Marvel and DC Entertainments Inc in a trade mark dispute over the word “Superhero” and the title of his start-up manual, “Business Zero to Superhero”. He subsequently won the dispute, his ‘Superhero’ trademark then officially registered, resulting in worldwide media attention.

Fast forward six years and Jules has launched another venture squarely aimed at assisting the underdog. Traditionally start-ups have had to seek disparate sources to launch and grow but maybe not anymore. His venture, a digital platform called, Pop Up World ® aims to connect budding entrepreneurs with various apps and services including access to VCs and Angel Investors, his aforementioned start-up guide, and most interestingly a cryptocurrency token called PUW (PopUpWorld Token).

Jules explained, “The problem is, out of all start-ups launched each year, only 1% of those start-ups ever achieve any external funding. For ethnic minority or female founders, the figures are even lower with only 1% of that 1% ever achieving external funding. We previously launched our Investor Connector app on Pop Up World to help connect start-ups with Angel Investors and VCs but we need to do more”.

Cue the PopUpWorld Token (PUW), a native token on the Cardano blockchain. Obviously, cryptocurrency is all the rage at the moment but crypto is notoriously volatile, how can a start-up hope to achieve any benefit from this digital token?

“It’s relatively simple”, said Jules, “A start-up gets rewarded with PUW each time they use key services on Pop Up World. They can then trade their collected PUW for other services or trade them on Decentralised Exchanges (DEXs) for other tokens, namely ADA (A Cardano native asset), that can be easily converted to currency, GBP or USD”. He continued, “Yes, crypto is volatile but if we can achieve significant liquidity in the PopUpWorld Token, we would be able to reward start-ups and fully fund their projects in the near future”.

“This is obviously ground-breaking; it would mean for the first time start-ups would be able to access funding without complicated raises or investment rounds. The Pop Up World community would decide which start-ups they will support”.

In effect, the PopUpWorld Token acts as a “Social Token” that its followers can collect and exchange for rewards. But can non-entrepreneurs benefit from this?

Jules replied, “Potentially, yes. If an individual believes in this project, they can purchase PopUpWorld Token on DEXs such as MuesliSwap, Minswap or on the Pop Up Worldplatform. If the price were to rise, you could sell PUW for a potential gain. It should be remembered, however, that this is a project to help entrepreneurs and as such it’s a high-risk venture with no built-in guarantee of returns.”

A quick glance on MuesliSwap shows that the PopUpWorld Token has a supply of 77 billion PUW and a Market Cap of 20 million ADA (approximately $14 million Dollars) at the time of writing. So, it’s very early days.

Jules concluded, “Yes, it’s early days but we’ve been working hard on building a solid foundation for the future. I strongly believe the underdog can win once more!”

Well, you have to admire the guts of this underdog, but the crypto world is dog littered with promising projects that are now no more. Here’s hoping this underdog’s project is not just a stifled dog whimper and its bite is truly stronger than its bark.

What Can Entrepreneurs Learn from the Will Smith Slap?

Probably the most hyped media event of the century. On March 27th 2022, Will Smith (53) strutted on stage at the Oscars and slapped the jovial Chris Rock (57) squarely across the face and the world’s jaw collectively dropped. Both men are entrepreneurial industry heavyweights with their own influential media empires. However, their response to extreme pressure was so different. What can entrepreneurs learn from this incident? We compare and contrast Will Smith’s with Chris Rock’s reaction to the Oscars debacle.

Handling Pressure

Several million eyeballs on you, a seemingly insensitive joke about your wife. We can only imagine what it would be like to be in this situation. Will Smith, initially laughed at the joke about G.I Jane and his wife’s (Jada Pinkett Smith) haircut but for whatever reason, he felt the need in a high-pressure situation to react violently.

Chris Rock on the other hand, when confronted with a high-pressure situation decided to diffuse the situation with humour.

What can entrepreneurs learn? When dealing with a high-pressure situation, an upset client for example, always look to diffuse the situation first. Try not to get into defensive mode and hit back with defensive actions. Ask lots of questions and listen. If appropriate use light humour to get them on side. Try to get to the facts and share them with the aggrieved party. Solve their problem as quickly as possible.

Be Professional

In a professional situation, there are rules and guidelines. Let’s not forget that Will and Chris were at work. Yes, it can be glamorous work at times but it’s still work.

Will slapped a professional colleague across the face. In most places of work that behaviour would result in dismissal and police intervention.

Chris on the other hand, amazingly continued to deliver jokes and punchlines and the show went on despite the oxygen draining from the room.

What can entrepreneurs learn? Always strive to be professional, despite the situation. If a colleague or a customer completely loses it, don’t resort to a slanging match. Continue to deliver and do your job. Keep in mind that court proceedings or even incarceration are possible if things escalate.

It’s Not All About You

Yes, Will Smith is the main man and all eyes were on him. But we need to remember that Will Smith would not be ‘Will Smith’ without his team. All the scriptwriters, cinematographers, fashion designers and business associates are all relying on Will to put food on the table. As a result of his actions shows are cancelled, deals put on the back burner and people lose work. That’s the harsh reality.

Chris on the other hand has no such problems. Sales of his latest tour have skyrocketed and media outlets are clamouring to get his side of the story. Business is booming.

What can entrepreneurs learn? Yes, it’s your baby, you are the boss, we know that. But even if you have a small business there are probably tens if not hundreds of people that depend on you. Be it suppliers, clients, or family, there can be a real impact if an entrepreneur ‘loses it’. One of the great things about being an entrepreneur is that you can have an impact on the lives of others, try to ensure that impact is positive.

Don’t Forget to Apologise

Jada Pinkett, Chris Rock and Will Smith – Old friends.

It was interesting to see that during Will Smith’s Oscar acceptance speech, he failed to apologise to Chris Rock directly. In fact, he managed to name the Academy and others except for the actual victim of the incident. Also, he tried to justify his actions by framing it as an act of ‘protection’ for his family. A few days later Will finally decided to release a formal apology to Chris but the media storm had already begun.

Chris on the other hand reportedly apologised to another host (Wanda Sykes) for stealing the limelight. Yes, that’s right the victim of the act apologised.

What can entrepreneurs learn? We are all human and sometimes we make mistakes. When this happens it’s important to give a genuine apology to those impacted. Don’t try to frame the apology and make excuses as the apology will come across as insincere.

A delayed apology will often be viewed as fake. Apologise immediately after you realise you are in the wrong. Paradoxically, doing this will often give you the respect of those that have been affected. Upset clients may continue to do business with you as they now view you as honest but human. Most will accept a genuine apology. Don’t just apologise with words, give something in return to help make things right.

Beware of the Ego

Denzel Washington reportedly gave Will Smith an inspiring pep talk following the incident. He said, “In your highest moments, be careful; that’s when the devil comes for you “. Will Smith was about to be nominated for best actor but yet, at the pinnacle of his career, he threw away decades of hard work because of a mild joke and a slightly bruised ego.

Chris Rock on the other hand put himself and his ego to one side. While the sting of the slap resonated in his face, he told a joke. While the humiliation of being slapped in front of millions of people bounced around his confused mind he put his ego and feelings aside and ‘simply’ delivered.

What can entrepreneurs learn? At our highest moments, we are standing on the shoulders of many others. Try not to let our ego get the better of us. Yes, we may be the biggest, the best, the highest earner but remember all our success is dependent on others. Without them we are nothing.

Entrepreneurs – Is a Verbal Agreement a Binding Contract?

Many business deals have been finalised on a handshake alone. When two people trust each other and are eager to move forward with working together the formalities of paperwork and agreements can often be forgotten.

But what happens when things go wrong? Can the handshake or verbal agreement be binding? This article looks at the consequences of verbal agreements. Here we go…

The general thinking amongst many entrepreneurs is that if there’s no agreement then the deal is unenforceable. This has lead to many disagreements and fallouts when the verbal agreement is not adhered to.

Unscrupulous entrepreneurs may make false promises with the hope of going back on their promise by claiming a lack of a signed contract.

The idea that lack of a signed agreement means there is no contract is wrong! In the eyes of the law, there is no requirement for a written agreement although a signed contract certainly helps if you want to prove what was agreed in the first place.

Here are the necessary elements for a contract:

There must be some kind of offer –

For example; I will sell my shoes for £40

There must be acceptance of the offer –

For example; OK, let’s do it. (The handshake)

There must be an intention to create a contract –

For example; You’re looking to buy shoes. I’m looking to sell shoes.

There must be ‘Consideration’ –

For example; Something in exchange – (usually money), but not always.

There must be clear terms –

For example; I will give you the shoes if you give me the money.

If you have all the above chances are you have a valid contract whether you have a written agreement or not.

We can say this with reasonable certainty because of past case law, in particular, the case Carlill v Carbolic Smoke Ball Company Carlill v Carbolic Smoke Ball Co [1893] 1 QB 256 Court of Appeal

In this case, which dates back to 1893 the Smoke Ball Company advertised in a newspaper that if any customer caught an illness after using their smoke ball in accordance with the instructions they would be rewarded with £100. A customer used the smoke ball and caught the flu shortly after.

In court, the company claimed that there was not a valid agreement in place since the offer was too vague, with no notice of acceptance. The court rejected the company’s assertion.

Although the above does highlight that there is not a necessity for a signed agreement to form a contract, it’s important to understand that some offers may not be offers at all, but are classed as ‘Invitations to treat” or a kind of pre-offer communication.

Examples of this would be a shop display or someone who says, “I may sell to you”. So you do have to be careful as to the circumstances.

Other Considerations – Promissory Estoppel.

Promissory estoppel is a method in contract law that allows someone to claim damages if a party goes back on a promise even without a legal contract.

The requirements for Promissory estoppel are as follows:

The promisor made a significant promise that caused the other party to act on it.

The other party relied on the promise.

The other party suffered damages as a result of the promise.

Fulfilment of the promise is the only way the other party can be compensated.

The elements of the above were laid out in an English contract law case way back in 1947; Central London Property Trust Ltd vs. High Trees House Ltd (1947) KB 130

The elements above show that ‘Consideration’ i.e. something of value given in exchange is not required for Promissory Estoppel. This means it is feasible that a court could award damages even in the absence of payment and a legal contract.

Final Thoughts.

As an entrepreneur, you should be careful and be wary of any situation that involves making significant promises without a signed agreement. Lack of an agreement does not automatically mean you can back out of any details of the promises made, especially if the other party is likely to suffer loss as a result.

Cryptocurrencies: What You Need to Know and Why They’re So Popular

Cryptocurrencies are all the rage right now and for good reason. They’re a new form of currency that is digital, secure, and can be used for a variety of transactions.

But what are they exactly? How do they work? And why are they so popular?

In this blog post, we will answer all of those questions and more! We’ll give you an in-depth look at cryptocurrencies and explain why they are such a big deal. So if you’re curious about this new form of currency, read on!

What are Cryptocurrencies and How do They Work?

Cryptocurrencies - What are they? — Cryptocurrencies – What are they?

Cryptocurrency first came to life in 2009 with the release of Bitcoin. Since then, there have been many different types of cryptocurrency released.

Cryptocurrencies are digital or virtual tokens that use cryptography to secure their transactions and to control the creation of new units.

Cryptocurrencies are decentralised, which means they are not subject to government or financial institution control.

Bitcoin, the first and most well-known cryptocurrency, is a decentralised peer-to-peer electronic cash system.

Transactions are verified by network nodes through cryptography and recorded in a public dispersed ledger called a blockchain. Bitcoin is the first successful implementation of a distributed ledger database.

Cryptocurrencies are often traded on decentralised exchanges and can also be used to purchase goods and services. Many people overcomplicate the use of cryptocurrency when in its most basic form it can be used like regular cash.

You can buy things with cryptocurrency, hold them as an investment, or trade it for other cryptocurrencies or traditional currencies.

The main difference is that cryptocurrency transactions are digital and often anonymous.

Why Are Cryptocurrencies so Popular?

Popular crypto — popular cryptocurrencies

Cryptocurrencies are becoming more and more popular for a variety of reasons. One reason is that they offer an alternative to traditional fiat currencies.

Fiat currencies are government-issued currencies that are not backed by a physical commodity.

Cryptocurrencies are not subject to government control or manipulation, which makes them appealing to those who are distrustful of the traditional financial system.

The decentralisation of cryptocurrencies also makes them very secure. Because there is no central authority that controls the currency, it is incredibly difficult to hack or cheat the system.

Cryptocurrencies are also borderless and can be used by anyone with an internet connection. Another reason cryptocurrencies are so popular is that they are a new and innovative technology.

They offer a new way of doing things that is more secure and efficient than traditional methods.

For example, blockchain technology, which is the underlying technology behind Bitcoin, is being used to create new applications that can revolutionize the way we do business.

What are the Uses of Cryptocurrency?

There are many uses of cryptocurrency. Below are some of the most popular uses:

Online payments: Cryptocurrencies can be used to make online payments. Because they are digital, they are fast and easy to use. Unlike the traditional system, there are no fees or charges for using cryptocurrency to make a payment.

Investment: Cryptocurrencies can be bought and held as an investment. They are often traded on exchanges and can appreciate in value over time.

Anonymity: Cryptocurrencies offer anonymity for users. This is because transactions are often done without personal information attached. The main benefit of this is that it can protect users from identity theft.

Smart contracts: Cryptocurrencies can be used to create and execute smart contracts. Smart contracts are digital agreements that can be automatically executed when certain conditions are met. From real estate to loan agreements, smart contracts can be used for a wide variety of purposes and will change the way we do business in the future.

Peer to peer lending: Cryptocurrencies can be used to facilitate peer-to-peer loaning. This is where two individuals can loan money to each other without the need for a bank or financial institution.

How to Buy and Sell Cryptocurrencies

Again people believe this is a complicated process but due to the popularity and media attention, new methods of buying and selling cryptocurrencies have arisen that make it easy for anyone to get involved.

The most popular way to buy cryptocurrency is through a broker or exchange. There are many different exchanges available, so it is important to do your research before choosing one.

Once you have selected an exchange, you will need to set up an account and deposit money into it.

You can then use this money to buy cryptocurrency. Once you have purchased the currency, you can store it in a digital wallet or trade it on an exchange.

Your digital wallet allows you to store, send, and receive cryptocurrency. Each cryptocurrency has its own blockchain, which is a digital ledger that records all transactions.

When selling cryptocurrency, you will need to find a buyer who is willing to pay the price you are asking.

This can be done through an exchange or by finding someone who is interested in buying the currency you have. Once a buyer has been found, you will need to send them the currency and they will pay you the agreed-upon price.

As the years go on buying and selling Crypto will become as easy as buying and selling stocks.

What Are the Risks of Investing in Cryptocurrency?

Cryptocurrency is a new and innovative technology, which means that there are some risks associated with it. Below are some of the risks you should be aware of before investing:

Volatility: The value of cryptocurrency can fluctuate wildly. This means that you could lose a lot of money if you invest without doing your research first.

Scams: With any emerging technology, there will always be scams. Be sure to do your research and only invest in reputable projects. To ensure you avoid scams, it is best to only invest in projects that have a solid track record.

Loss of private keys: If you lose the private key to your digital wallet, you will lose access to your cryptocurrency. This is why it is important to keep your keys safe and secure.

The Future of Cryptocurrencies?

The future of cryptocurrency is very bright, as mass adoption continues to happen all over the world. More and more businesses are beginning to accept cryptocurrency as a form of payment, which is driving up demand.

As demand increases, the price of the cryptocurrency will also increase. This is why now is the perfect time to invest in cryptocurrency. With new projects and businesses being launched all the time, there are many opportunities to make a profit.

Ensure you do your 100 hours of homework and understand what you are buying before investing, and you could see huge returns in the future.

Please note: This is not financial advice and should not be taken as such. Please do your own research before investing in any cryptocurrency.

Conclusion

Cryptocurrencies are becoming more popular by the day, and it’s important to understand why.

This technology has the potential to revolutionize how we interact with the digital world, making transactions faster, easier, and more secure.

With so much promise on the horizon, it’s no wonder cryptocurrencies are gaining such a following. Are you ready to join the cryptocurrency revolution?
