The group named the non-profit outfit the Canadian Web3 Council. The non-profit created by Connor Spelliscy and Jelena Djuric has been at the forefront of moving the blockchain and cryptocurrency industry forward in Canada years ago. 

This information is important because it shows that Canada is ready to take the bull by the horn as these individuals who have different interests institutionalized a non-profit that will be in touch with the government on laws that will be beneficial to every one including the government.]]> 2022-04-02 15:11:09 UTC https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2126554468 Website #2 WonderFi Technologies to acquire Canadian crypto exchange Bitbuy abiodunmorufat https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2126579844 A company named WonderFi Technologies Inc., is on the verge of buying a crypto exchange Canadian owned company called Bitbuy. A Canadian businessman has been the man behind the deal, worth $162m after completion. The takeover will grant WonderFi complete control of the booming Canadian crypto marketplace.
The company (Bitbuy) was created in 2016 and has since been one of Canada’s biggest crypto marketplace with about 375,000 users on its platform with a total transaction of about $4.4 billion since its inception.

The News is worth mentioning because it highlights how important the crypto market is in Canada and why investors are interested in breaking into the market because Canadians have embraced cryptocurrencies more than stocks these days.]]> 2022-04-02 15:52:13 UTC https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2126579844 Website #3 Canada stocks Beat U.S. by Most in 13 Years abiodunmorufat https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2126606619 The Canadian stock market experienced a boom because of oil prices that have gone up in recent times and have charged the Canadian stocks in 2022, which stock experts say the surge will still grow.
The Canadian S&P/TSX Composite Index gained 3.1% in the period, 8% more than the S&P 500, its US counterpart. This gain has been the biggest quarter for the Canadian stock market in about 13 years. The Canadian's energy and materials stocks have experienced a boom because the war in Ukraine triggered a demand for oil and haven assets; these stocks have a high impact on TSX to fresh highs.

Even though crypto has been the new bride in investment, stocks have been holding its on for a while and with the recent high prices of Oil due to war on-going in Ukraine. The surge in the oil prices have help Canada's stocks in Energy and haven assets to experience surge and was able to out performed US stock market in a quarter making it the biggest in 13 years.]]> 2022-04-02 16:38:41 UTC https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2126606619 Website #4: 2 High Risk, High Reward Stocks That Could Go to the Moon. abiodunmorufat https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2126625990 It is understood to say that no investment is a risk-free investment in the stock market or cryptocurrency market. The term risk is relative; however, some stocks are riskier than others. Many investors have decided to stay away from some companies' stocks tagged to be volatile and seem to pose a greater risk. Some risk-takers have played actively in these volatile stock markets, deemed too risky by other investors, and have since been reaping from investing in these volatile markets.

The author of this article is admonishing the would be investors about taking a risk to invest in stocks as there is no investment without its own peculiar risks. Some investors have reaped in stocks deemed to be risky by risk averse investors, which eventually turned out to be good investment.]]> 2022-04-02 17:11:32 UTC https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2126625990 abiodunmorufat https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2126646328 The video is about whether the world is better than what it was 20 years ago, as seen in the video in 1994 of Today Show, where the television crews discussed what the internet was like at the time. Cryptocurrency offers investors full transparency, and the privacy of their investment is guaranteed through cryptography. With the adoption of blockchain technology in managing cryptocurrency, no centralized entity or go-betweens is driving the cryptocurrency market. No bank is involved in creating the currency, but bitcoins are regularly moving amongst investors.
The benefits of cryptocurrency outweigh its disadvantage because businesses now use the currency as a medium of exchange. The system works because there is an open communications protocol that investors or stakeholders must consent to before performing network actions.

Likewise, investing money into crypto isn't for everybody; if a billionaire like Warren Buffett is staying away from investing in cryptocurrencies investment capital, it is an indication that such a risky investment might not be for everyone. The risk-neutral investors will rather stay away from investing in cryptocurrencies because they view it as gambling which is 50/50.

We all saw what happened when Elon Musk announced that he would accept Bitcoins as a means of payment for buying his Teslas; after the announcement, he mopped up so many Bitcoins that the cryptocurrency market crashed a few days later, and people lost their fortune in the process. I could not agree less with the video because there is no haven in business or investment as there are risks everywhere.]]> 2022-04-03 03:59:26 UTC https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2126890277 The best is yet to come for Canadian oil and gas stocks: Bison Interests' Young abiodunmorufat https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2129369572 This video was specifically about energy and Gas production as affected by the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic and how world powers were trying to manage the situation regarding oil prices.
The capacity of the oil-producing countries has been an issue for a while now, which has affected various countries' economies.
The importance of this video to the Canadian stock market is enormous, as this is the best time to invest in energy and gas stocks due to the supply issues all over the world amid covid-19 and the war in Ukraine. Russia's sanctions are one thing; Mexico is not cooperating with production, and Venezuela and Iran are under sanctions, which leaves Canada to play a significant role in all of this. Therefore, investment in stocks in Energy and Gas in Canada will be a massive opportunity for Canadian investors to take.]]> 2022-04-04 19:43:36 UTC https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2129369572 abiodunmorufat https://padlet.com/abiodunmorufat/b2xu5978yb7rqw8c/wish/2129372674 The video is about how Canadian stocks have relied on conventional stocks like Walt Disney, Gold, etc. In the past, stocks in Canada were doing well in the era of commodity stocks. Still, the dollar doesn't go five percent higher from here, obviously, but that's what's attracted us. But, of course, the old complaint is that you can't build a decently diversified portfolio if you stick to Canada's conventional stocks.

One key thing that I could deduce from the video is that the Canadian stock market must diversify from conventional commodity stocks to new innovations, as we are currently experiencing with the crypto market. Like in the U.S. and European markets, Traveling and Hospitality stocks are making waves, and people are investing in these stocks.

It entitles the owner of the stock to a proportion of the corporation's assets and profits equal to how much stock they own.
A cryptocurrency is a type of virtual asset that is protected using cryptography. It typically uses a system called a blockchain to record and keep a history of transactions.

In all of these, investments in stocks and cryptocurrencies are a function of taking risks, there is no shortcut to making money if you are not ready to take that risk of investing your money in either stocks or cryptocurrencies. We have witnessed people becoming so rich through stocks and cryptos as well as people taking a huge loss in these investments.
Investments in either stocks or cryptos should be done with utmost care and sense.

Investment in cryptocurrencies is volatile, and we were meant to believe it; however, no investment has ever been easy. Therefore, crypto investment is like any other investment that could go bad or turn good. On the other hand, Crypto offers many security opportunities that make transaction intermediaries less, quick settlement, and identity theft impossible. Moreover, every member of the network has access to each in real-time.

First, as an equity owner in a company's stocks, you have a voice indirectly in the company's management. You can put your money in different stocks as an investor, thereby spreading your risks.
