If you are curious about the world of online currency or what to know how you can improve your current investing

(The Independent )

The price of cryptocurrency is seemingly in constant flux which causes a gauntlet for investors to run week to week and day to day.

Bitcoin remains in limbo following last week’s flash crash, which some analysts mistook for the start of a bear market that would see its price continue to tumble in the short term.

None of this is new with cryptocurrency making headlines for years, but its unpredictable nature and complex myriad of currencies means for many it is an area too daunting to delve into.

For those who have taken the plunge and invested there have been those who have become millionaires and even billionaires as a result, while there are those who have also lost a considerable amount as the price proves to be a constant rollercoaster for investors.

To decipher exactly how cryptocurrency works, how to invest and what the future looks like for the likes of bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH) and Cardano (ADA),The Independent is hosting an expert panel to explore the ins and outs of digital money.

The virtual event, which is free to attend, will be hosted by our own crypto expert, tech writer Anthony Cuthbertson and he will be joined by digital currency leaders who will be able to give their first-hand account of trading in the online market.

One of the panellists is none other than Fred Schebesta, a co-founder of financial comparison website Finder, self-made entrepreneur with an estimated net worth of $214million.

Another is Dr Iwa Salami from the University of East London, who is an associate professor in financial law and an expert in FinTech and crypto regulation.

The third and final panellist is Will Harborne, CEO of the decentralised crypto exchange DeversiFi, who is able to share his vast experience in the decentralised finance space and explain the opportunities it presents for traders and investors heading into 2022.

The expert panel will be held on 15 December at 6.30pm (GMT). To find out more and sign up for free click here.
