    Farzam Ehsani

    Join TechCentral for a live YouTube discussion with VALR.com co-founder Farzam Ehsani on Tuesday, 4 June, at 11am — and pose any questions you may have for him.

    Ehsani, the former blockchain lead at RMB, who quit the bank to found the cryptocurrency exchange VALR.com, will talk about the company’s launch of rand trading in bitcoin next week and the process involved in doing so.

    He will also give his views on the recent surge in the value of cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, and what’s driving the renewed interest in the asset class.

    He will explain why you should invest in cryptocurrencies, and what the right approach is to doing so — especially given continued volatility. When is the right time to buy, or sell, and why?

    And does it matter that bitcoin is not (yet) being used widely as a currency for day-to-day transactions?

    Join TechCentral in the chatroom on YouTube (it’s not visible on this Web page) and pose your questions to Ehsani — we’ll try to get to all of them during the discussion. And hit the play button below and click “Set a reminder” to be reminded when the live stream starts.
