I recently received an invitation to speak in Babson College professor Steve Gordon's excellent blockchain course

Steve had prepared a presentation on "How to Invest in the Blockchain Ecosystem" since my talk was about investing in cryptocurrencies

[{"selector":"#anim-0874b5b5-69a9-4fa4-a887-db201388f4c0","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-45c97205-e038-4bf6-8047-1cbb0b904c19","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 126.17479%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a93f8f4f-1cfa-4b31-a4f5-5ee7a6af01ba [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Invest in cryptocurrencies like bitcoin. Here at Bitcoin Market Journal, we spend the majority of our time on this very visible investment opportunity

[{"selector":"#anim-a2d281d0-07b3-49ef-b8cc-cf6998b08421","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-bddabfe0-16ff-46e7-bc8f-f8b4381b6401","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 126.58029%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f219aed8-bb9c-4367-a3d3-574317e6d4cd [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

the majority of cryptocurrency "businesses" won't succeed, but a select few will disrupt the financial, banking

[{"selector":"#anim-33a4771d-005d-48ee-9f51-a0a34cc625d9","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-17d2b880-cd05-48ce-b88c-ffaddb8c8240","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 134.31204%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e5fd4f81-3a99-4b3b-aba7-ab79aa020f71 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Take up mining: You can contribute to the operation of a blockchain network by either mining or staking (in Proof of Stake).

[{"selector":"#anim-ea64ce3c-972c-4aea-89d5-c388a756219c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0ee5771e-2350-4576-81d2-be446f6a7a15","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 134.62881%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-5aafc021-ba2b-484b-8dce-e4109cdc256f [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

The majority of the time, mining uses expensive mining equipment and large amounts of power, both of which are bad for the environment

[{"selector":"#anim-71989aa8-5362-4cce-82ca-d41204e51144","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-6939d56a-90cc-48b8-a6f4-db92c558c801","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 129.24764%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d17f5186-39b8-4522-a2a0-89559d5af718 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Purchase stablecoins. Stablecoins, or cryptocurrencies that maintain their value against a different currency, typically the US dollar, can be purchased

[{"selector":"#anim-864551ba-d1d8-4944-ab54-364f7b7c0063","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a5ac44fa-0269-4a45-9514-14fefd676138","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 121.82698%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-318b7906-ef46-46f9-907d-7911f2448193 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Buy a cryptocurrency ETF. A traditional broker or an online trading platform can be used to buy and sell exchange traded funds, which hold cryptocurrency assets

[{"selector":"#anim-97bee9ed-f159-4f09-8518-eded7b39f82f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f0dab50a-22bd-4a83-9519-709ce029b226","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 126.58029%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e051f7fc-1fc6-44d2-9069-3660db9cbb0b [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Invest in blockchain projects in the early stages. You can invest in startup blockchain initiatives, which are also known as angel investments or seed rounds

[{"selector":"#anim-95177f44-ae58-49a5-8f49-e30809a9b7f3","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-6f3175ee-1f1d-407e-9713-672a15b01590","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 125.77954%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-5c595605-d2b4-43a3-9433-97870dabe030 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]
