Sam Ball is a UK-based TEDx speaker and investor who saved and invested his student loan while studying accounting and finance at Durham University.
Sam made returns of over 70% in his first year in the stock market and has since diversified his portfolio into art and cryptocurrencies.
He currently works in personal tax and is studying to become a chartered accountant.
The firm Sam works for has a special interest in cryptos which is why he reached out to us to spend some time chatting about how the taxation system works in the UK.
Sam is an ICO (initial coin offering) advisor to a blockchain-based real estate and mortgage investment platform called Nest.

What We’ve Learned About Crypto In 50 Episodes of This PodcastPaul
It’s got a LONG way to go! It’s too complex at the moment Bitcoin is still king You can lose your shirt Lastpass isn’t the best password tool to use There’s some great humour around crypto The wallet process is RIDICULOUS - I prefer to focus on a few with simple wallets I desperately want to interview someone about crypto tax I love crypto - I still get a strong sense of deja vu I still really want to be in on this, but in a simpler way - I bought too many coins at first It’s extremely engaging and more interesting that I’d ever have thought :-) I STILL believe we’re all going to the moon! Tax is going to be a pain in the arseAlison
If you don’t understand it straight away, don’t give up and ignore it The crypto market is VOLATILE The only thing that’s predictable is unpredictability Blockchain technology WILL change our lives but there’s still a long way to go and issues to sort out - that doesn’t mean it’s not going to happen. ICO white papers give me a headache but if you want to trade, you have to know what you’re dealing with… Which is why I don’t trade! What goes up must come down (until we go to the moon!)

The Winklevoss Twins’ Bitcoin ETF Application Rejected by SEC - so is it ‘game over’? Why Buying bitcoin, ethereum and other cryptocurrencies with British pounds just got easier McDonalds launch their own limited edition crypto ... we’ll go large on that please! Links From This Week's Show ...1 > Will Blockchain Protect the World Economy from Financial Crises?
https://cointelegraph.com/news/will-blockchain-protect-the-world-economy-from-financial-crises
Alison's excellent summary:
2008 was the legendary beginning of cryptocurrency - banking meltdown and financial crisis paved the way for digital currency & inspiration for Nakamoto’s paper on bitcoin published the same year Blockchain narrative - crisis wouldn’t have happened if blockchain / distributed ledger tech been around. Low cost way of reducing global financial risks and establishing trust between institutions and the public. 2008 financial crisis - cause byu societies faith in banking system and their record keeping practices. Discussed in book called The Truth Machine - example of the Lehman brothers who used a number of shady tricks to ‘cook the books’ and make it look like firm was thriving. Shared record of transactions on the blockchain would theoretically prevent this from happening - central banks/regulators would have clear picture of individual banks operations and be able to intervene if necessary More radical view is that blockchain will enable peer-to-peer networks to take over many of the things we currently rely on banks for BUT while pretty much every bank is currently developing distributed ledger technology, it is far from certain that the systems they come up with will be completely transparent. What’s likely is that a consortium of banks will look to build a common standard of open source software. This is already happening. Will these banks create a system that’ll give governments and regulators the tools to precisely monitor them? Or to create peer-to-peer networks to effectively put them out of business? Unlikely. More likley is that they’re looking to create a blockchain-based system that will work on their terms, and to get there ahead of anything else. So blockchain may replace the current system of bookkeeping, but that doesn’t mean we’ll be waving goodbye to the banks.2 > Warning issued about 'double dose' Bitcoin drugs at Kendal Calling
