Expert advice

Dominic Gluchowski, a CoinJar executive, says, "If your crypto tokens are undergoing changes on the blockchain, like getting a new name or being swapped for different ones, it's smarter to keep them in your own digital wallet (like MetaMask) rather than leaving them on an exchange. This way, you won't risk missing out on any new tokens that might come your way.

“To be extra safe, always start by transferring a small number of tokens as a test run. Once you're sure it worked, you can transfer the rest with more confidence." The ASI Alliance has ambitious goals for a more open and accessible AI future. Whether they can deliver remains to be seen. As always, be cautious and informed about your investments.

Fetch.ai (FET) and your SMSF

If you have FET tokens in a Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF), it's crucial to confirm with your professional adviser that your trust deed permits storing cryptocurrency in self-hosted wallets. You might need to use a specific self-hosted wallet designated for your SMSF.
