Crypto & Blockchain in Malaysia: Communities, Companies and Associations in Malaysia You Should Know

Posted by Suraya - 4 Comments

One thing I noticed about people who are passionate about cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology is their ideologies and values.

They tend to be the same people who rank transparency, efficiency and financial inclusiveness high in their belief system. Not all of them (some just got in it for the moneh), but many of them. And for that reason, I support the industry.

In the interest of promoting the cryptocurrency and blockchain in Malaysia, I have compiled Malaysia-based companies, associations and groups you should know.

Note that this list is not exhaustive – I might have missed some – but the popular ones with active members are here. If you know of any more, please comment and I’ll add it in.

I Created My Own Cryptocurrency For Fun (And How You Can, Too)

Posted by Suraya - 6 Comments

Before I begin this,

HI BNM! YOU’RE DOING AN AWESOME JOB! BTW THIS ‘CRYPTOCURRENCY’ I DID HAVE NO VALUE AT ALL! ABSOLUTELY NONE! THIS ‘CRYPTOCURRENCY’ IS MORE LIKE A FUN BUCKETLIST PROJECT AND A CREATIVE EXPRESSION RATHER THAN A CURRENCY PER SAY. IN FACT THINK OF IT LIKE TOKENS OR POINTS. I AM A TAX-PAYING CITIZEN!

Okay now that’s done…

Guys, I made SurayaCoin! 1000 of them! And it’s super simple via the Waves Platform – literally just 4 steps!

FAQ: How to Invest in Cryptocurrencies in Malaysia (Aside from Bitcoin)

Posted by Suraya - 83 Comments

This is a follow-up to my Bitcoin FAQ article. You need to understand bitcoin first before diving into other types of cryptocurrencies. If you have not read that, you might find this confusing, so read that first.

This article looks at cryptocurrency and altcoins from a more ‘investor’, rather than ‘tech’ point of view. If any info here is wrong or outdated, please let me know by commenting.

RM10,000 in: 6 reasons why I invest in Bitcoins

Posted by Suraya - 23 Comments

Today, I reached a milestone! RM10,000 in Bitcoins. This is the second investment I made after ASB (aka genetic lottery due to being technically Malay) that I hold more than RM10k in one investment vehicle.

Update March 2016: I’m now RM15k in.

In a previous post, I wrote about the 4 things I learned about buying Bitcoins in Malaysia.
