Just got this email

What happened?

When they are offering it too cheap they can’t survive selling gold as costs too high in operating micro gold investments πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

Gold shot up a lot this year by 8% hence it is cheaper to buy paper gold directly in Stashaway now

Hello Sifus,

Pls help explain the Hello Gold biz model and mechanism why it failed.

(As though I'm a 15 yo student, 1st lesson in Physics)...which I scored 17 / 100 marks.

Business failed because economies of scale hence small user base less profitable

Luno will be next soon πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

You did not study Luno well to calculate how much profits they made per day based on their daily trade volume.

Hence your comments are not valid without facts and data to support.

You think Luno been doing well now since crypto winter πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

They downsizing now and cutting more than 1/3 of the workforce hence they will be next πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

Don’t forget the actual owner of Luno is DCG which have already failed venture from Genesis πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ hence cutting the left arm to save the right

Bro, thanks good insight. We see price drops for Binance, Coinbase, etc. Ok, as long no hanky panky.

Likely, the traditional banks will be interested to buy up crypto licences.

So not concerned with customers...change ownership from A to B.

Otherwise, MAS n MOF semua malu...apa regulators?

Banks in the 1st place will not buy Crypto licenses as they are not regulated πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

Even the big boys in US will partner with to run a fund while earning fees hence they are not in the eyes of SEC if anything goes sideaways

Remember banks is always keep the risk as low as possible while earning fees πŸ˜‚

Told you guys so. Back in 2018 I felt the way the system works is similar to what we see in bitcoin. The asset may be just numbers and pumped up by transactions. Once nobody buys and people keep selling. Sure cannot sustain.

Dah lah he says we will take abit of your gold as management fee. Dude what management fee when you didn't keep any gold pun

I believe got ppl buy but no selling πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

Most ppl buy gold long term investment and seldom trade hence HelloGold failed because they only make more money via selling through its spread πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

Management fee is only to cover its operating expenses as you can see from the disclosure it is not making profit hence it is business decision to close down

Stashaway flexible portfolio for GLD ETF or Versa Gold thematic portfolio

Otherwise you can buy Bursa Gold or NYSE GLD ETF directly instead
