Before you get involved in Bitcoin, what should you know about it?

Well, you’re about to find out in today’s episode.

We’re temporarily diverting away from property because Bitcoin is such a hot topic right now.

But what’s more concerning, is that people are wanting to jump on the Bitcoin bandwagon without understanding what it is or how it works.

Rob & Rob love taking on complex subjects and breaking them down into understandable, digestible bits of information. So, if you’re clueless about Bitcoin, this is the episode for you.

 

In the news

This week’s news story had to be none other than Nationwide’s House Price Index which shows annual house price growth has hit 10.9%.

Average property prices have also gone up from £238,000 to £242,000 in a month!

The report puts this down to people still wanting to move out of city areas and gain more space, which we’ve seen happening throughout the pandemic.

So, for anyone who’s got a property portfolio under their belt, they’re likely to be pretty happy right now.

 

Hub Extra

For this week’s Hub Extra, we’re giving you a trio of books for you to get stuck into.

The first one is an easy read and it’s ‘Bitcoin Billionaires’ by Ben Mezrich. We’ve actually recommended this book before but it’s a brilliant story about the origins of Bitcoin.

The second and third books are for you to continue your Bitcoin learning.

We’ve got ‘Inventing Bitcoin’ by Yan Pritzker and ‘The Bitcoin Standard’ by Saifedean Ammous. These two books aren’t the most entertaining books to read but if you’re wanting to understand the technical side of Bitcoin then they do just that.

We recommend listening to them on Audible and you’ll have them boxed off in a few hours.
