🏦 Central banks typically target an inflation rate of 2%. But what’s so special about 2%?
Partly, they target a small positive rate to avoid deflation – which can cause the economy to grind to a halt. And 2% is low enough that things shouldn’t get too expensive, too fast.
Unfortunately, central banks have a terrible record of hitting this target! Your money loses value every year, and often much faster than 2%. #Inflation

🇰🇪 Kenya has proposed a 1.5% tax on every crypto transaction. That’s not capital gains or income tax – it’s a tax on regular payments.
This is a terrible idea that will push crypto innovation out of the country. When Indonesia implemented just a 0.1% tax in 2022, users flooded to offshore and P2P platforms.
Are you based in Kenya? What do you think of this proposed law #crypto #Taxes
💸Buffett’s stance on Bitcoin has always been negative – at least publicly. Eleven years ago, when BTC was just $600, he claimed it “doesn’t qualify as a currency”. Since then, it’s surged over 17,400%. Yet despite his continued criticism, Buffett indirectly profits from crypto through a number of his investments.
It looks like it’s nothing personal after all. As they say, money doesn’t smell.$BTC #BTC #WarrenBuffett
