Key takeaways include recognizing urgency, secrecy, and mismatched information requests as signs of scams, and knowing what steps to take if you or someone you know has been scammed.

Is crypto going mainstream? Dave Ripley is co-CEO of long-standing global crypto exchange Kraken, service provider to Sharesies Crypto.

Why does Dave believe that AI is, by nature, the "exact opposite" of crypto? How does tokenisation work, and why does he say it could change property investing?

How to spot a bubble
Is the market in a bubble? With US exchanges seeing record highs, AI hype still soaring, and a recent US Federal Reserve rate cut, it’s a question some investors are asking. In this episode, we get Scott Phillips’ views on identifying an expensive share price vs a worthy buy—based on his experience as The Motley Fool’s Chief Investment Officer, Advisor, and Portfolio Manager. Scott explains why a record high isn't always a red flag, and his strategy for distinguishing between a bubble and justifiable optimism. We discuss the current state of the market against first hand lessons from the dot-com bubble and the COVID crash. Scott shares the perils of trying to catch the bottom—and how even the best business in the world may be overpriced. Plus, Scott’s take on assessing investments, weighing up reasonable probabilities against downside and upside risks.
