In fact, many collectors have suffered from the loss of experts, and they have been deceived by the combination of experts and buyers. Some experts even claim that fake antiques are real and sell them at a high price for their private interests, or they say that they are real as fake, and buy them at a low price. But not all experts are like this. There are many appraiser experts who cherish wings very much, and they severely condemn this phenomenon. At a treasure appraisal site, an expert couldn’t help but turn his face. This person was Cai Guosheng, the appraisal expert of CCTV’s “Treasure Hunt” program.

The story goes like this. At that time, there was a treasure appraisal program in the place, and Cai Guosheng and several other experts were the guests of appraisal. In the morning, an expert surnamed Huang said that a fake Shakyamuni standing statue was true. In the afternoon, the expert was even more unscrupulous. One person brought up a porcelain vase from the Song Dynasty, and the inscription underneath was the Grand View of Song Dynasty’s reign. However, the inscription on porcelain is a tradition that only existed after the Ming Dynasty, so it is obviously fake. But the expert ignored the reminders of the people around him and said it was true.

Then another farmer from Heilongjiang brought up a jade pig dragon of Hongshan culture and said that he dug it out of his own land. However, the Hongshan culture is in Liaoning and Inner Mongolia, how could it be in Heilongjiang? , And there are more than a dozen in one dig. But the expert said it was true again. Teacher Cai Guosheng endured it all the time at first, because no one wanted to offend his colleagues. Until this expert once again described the flower bottle that can be seen everywhere in the antique city as an official imitation official in the Kangxi period.

At this time, Cai Guosheng couldn’t bear it. He stood up and pointed to the expert named Huang, and asked him He Juxin. He pointed out that the Buddha statues in the morning were fake, and the ones in the afternoon were also fake. What are you going to do with this propaganda platform? What’s the ulterior motive. Then Mr. Cai Guosheng took off the headset, got up angrily and left. Later data showed that this appraising program was sponsored by a local collector. Although I don’t know what the purpose of this expert surnamed Huang is, there are indeed many experts who have made false appraisal results for their own benefit or for the benefit of others.

Because the appraisal is inherently risky, if there is a problem with the collection, the experts can also say something as an excuse, and it will have no effect on themselves. What do you think of this matter? Welcome to discuss together.

Tam Coc – Bich Dong tourist area. Documentary photo: Minh Duc/VNA The “Golden Colors of Tam Coc – Trang An” Tourism Week is one of the series of events of the National Tourism Year 2021. The opening ceremony of the “Golden colors of Tam Coc – Trang An” Tourism Week is expected to be held by the Department of Tourism of Ninh province. Binh is held on the occasion of ripe rice in Tam Coc field, Hoa Lu district. This is one of the important tourism promotion activities in order to effectively exploit the value of Ninh Binh’s own identity, bring unique and attractive tourism products to continue affirming the brand and position. Ninh Binh tourism on the tourist map of Vietnam and the whole world is a safe, attractive, civilized, friendly and hospitable destination. Previously, the Department of Tourism of Ninh Binh province coordinated with the People’s Committee of Hoa Lu district to conduct a field survey and consult with the people, determining that this year the rice will ripen around May 25-30. However, due to the complicated and unpredictable situation of the COVID-19 epidemic, following the direction of the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, in order to ensure the safety of people and tourists. According to the schedule, strictly implementing the regulations on prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic, the People’s Committee of Ninh Binh province has decided to stop organizing the Tourism Week “The Golden Colors of Tam Coc – Trang An”.

The market continuously has sessions with very high liquidity.

The market has become more and more unpredictable when each recovery phase faces the risk of selling goods. There is no bad news, only investor sentiment has changed.

The excitement from the positive developments in the world last night sparked some hope at the beginning of the session. VN-Index opened with a slight drop of only 0.18% and then increased by 0.59% compared to the reference. However, despite trading tens of thousands of billion dong on the HSX, the index still couldn’t increase but just moved sideways.

The movement in a narrow band this morning was even worse than the previous sessions. For example, yesterday, the VN-Index exploded and increased by more than 0.8% before being discharged. This session seems to have prolonged discharge pressure, earlier when the width narrowed and the index was almost only “damped” by VIC and NVL.

VIC struggled for a few minutes at the beginning of the session and started to speed up around 10am. That is when the stocks started to be sold a lot and fell. VIC increased continuously until the end of the morning session, from the reference level to the top of VND 144,100, equivalent to an increase of 2.27%. NVL increased earlier than VIC, hitting the ceiling of 190,600 dong at around 10:10 am. This stock then went sideways close to the ceiling price. The negative signal was that although VIC and NVL gained extremely “hot”, the VN-Index was weaker, until about 11am, it only increased by 4.8 points, to 11h13 it fell back to reference. In the few remaining minutes in the morning session, the index was knocked down very quickly, partly influenced by VIC suddenly fell. At the end of the morning session, the index evaporated 8.8 points compared to the reference.

In the afternoon, VIC recovered a bit, helping the VN-Index less badly. However, the narrow width on this floor still showed that the majority of stocks were sold out too clearly. VIC closed up 1.49% and HSX’s trading system was congested again after 2 hours, it turned down. The index ended the session with a drop of 8.54 points, or 0.68%.

Movements of the VN-Index during the session, the system blocked at the right time when the index got out of the bottom.

Although the decrease was still quite slight like yesterday, the number of decliners on the HSX was 4 times higher than that of the increase, which is much less than the previous session. Although it did not reach the floor level, there were nearly 240 stocks down by over 1 percent, of which about 175 stocks dropped over 2 percent. With such a plunge, the VN-Index is an annoying phenomenon.

Small and medium stocks were the most heavy losers. Midcap decreased by 1.16%, Smallcap decreased by 1.58%. YEG, SHA, QBS, TNI, TLD, DLG, PXT hit the floor. Many stocks fell deeply with very high liquidity such as LDG, QCG, SJF, ITA, FIT … On the contrary, the heavy speculative stocks rose strongly such as ROS, MHC, HQC, FLC, HQC …

Although there are always stocks going against the market under any circumstances, the width is still a reliable indicator of the general price movement level. The stock declined a lot today and the early recovery phase ended quickly. VN30 group alone had up to 15 stocks reversed from the peak, causing losses of over 2%. Stocks like VHM, BID, PLX, STB, and TCH also reversed and dropped over 3%.

This session was at the most exciting intensity since HSX’s system increased the load. This exchange started to block orders from around 2h10 and stopped at the liquidity threshold of 20,048 billion dong, the highest of the week and set a new historical record. Due to congestion, this phase ATC matched only over 56 billion dong, basket VN30 matched 19.6 billion dong.

The frozen market caused the recovery from the bottom of the VN-Index to freeze at a drop of just over 8 points. Like other jam sessions, investors can deduce both directions when the demand did not come in and pushed the market up or sellers could not take advantage to cut further losses.

Foreign investors continued to be net sellers with the scale of VND 560.8 billion on the HSX, focusing on discharging VHM, HPG, and VNM with hundreds of billion VND of each code. CTG, BID, MSN, PLX, and PNJ were also net sold over 20 billion dong. On the buying side, there were NVL, MBB, FLC, HCM, and DXG with strong net buying.

Attractive virtual money market

After many sessions close to the old peak, Bitcoin has penetrated the threshold of 62,000 USD and then 63,000 USD / Bitcoin on the evening of April 13. Currently, Bitcoin price is fluctuating around 63,500 USD / Bitcoin, sometimes close to 64,000 USD / Bitcoin. Thus, in the past 1 year, the price of Bitcoin has increased about 9 times, a level of return far exceeding all traditional investment channels such as stocks or gold.

As Wall Street becomes more and more open to cryptocurrencies, Coinbase’s direct listing is attracting great investor interest, according to financial experts. Especially on April 14, Coinbase officially became a public company on the Nasdaq. This is the first major crypto company to list, considered a major turning point for the digital market as well as a test of the level of investor interest in startups. (startup) differs in this area.

Not only Bitcoin, but also many cryptocurrencies issued by exchanges also increased in price ahead of the Coinbase listing. Typically, Binance Coin increased 23% in the first day of the week; Houbi Token and KuCoin Token both went up.

Before the excitement of virtual money, the virtual money market, also known as electronic money in Vietnam, became active again when investors realized that this currency had promising potential. As can be seen, the appearance of Pi, a new cryptocurrency and other virtual currency units in early 2021 has attracted a large number of new investors to join.

In Vietnam, virtual money in general and currencies like Bitcoin, Litecoin … in particular are still not recognized and are not legal means of payment. The issuance, supply and use of virtual currency are prohibited acts and will be sanctioned according to the Government’s Decree No. 96/2014 / ND-CP on sanctioning of administrative violations in the monetary and banking sector. Criminal Code 2015 (amended and supplemented). Previously, the State Bank of Vietnam had warned many times that investing in virtual money caused great risks to investors.

Unpredictable risks

According to market research Statista, Vietnam has the 2nd highest cryptocurrency usage rate in the world, after Nigeria. With millions of dollars traded every month, crypto exchanges are a good prey for cybercriminals.

The technology security companies said that fraudulent acts on electronic transactions are very diverse and sophisticated, such as collecting information from developers and investors; attack with malware, phishing, malicious code, fake notification, navigate to fake website, DDoS … and steal electronic wallet security key.

The famous criminal group in the world that focuses on cryptocurrencies today, such as Lazarus, BlueNoroff (a member of the Lazarus family that specializes in attacking the financial sector) is also said to be carrying out related attacks. to cryptocurrencies in Southeast Asia under the name SnatchCrypto.

The vibrant virtual money market attracts many Vietnamese investors to rejoin (illustrations).

Not only that, the risk of losing money also comes from virtual currency exchanges and can be collapsed at any time. Commenting on this type of investment, Lawyer Pham Duy Khuong, CEO of ASL Law Firm, said that although he is always warned about potential risks, what makes virtual money still attractive to investors. it is too big a profit. But the downside of the coin’s development has actually created a series of risks of “junk” virtual money investment channels appearing more and more.

Worryingly, virtual money “trash” tends to increase sharply and is “sucking blood” of investors. Specifically, with an attractive offer of great profits from virtual currency exchanges, investors massively poured money into “junk” virtual currency floors and then after a short time, the floor suddenly collapsed, when Then new investors fall back to be deceived. More sophisticated, when many cryptocurrency exchanges have “lured” investors to buy real virtual money, then use these virtual currencies to buy back virtual money “trash” “In order to make high profits and then the investors lose all their investment money.

However, according to the experts, it is very difficult to sanction fraud on these type of exchange owners. Because, if investors contribute with real money to the property, it can also be sanctioned, but if you contribute virtual money – a currency that is not an asset or a means of payment, there is no legal status, so it is not. there are grounds for punishment

Chris Connell, Managing Director of Kaspersky Asia Pacific said: “The development of cryptocurrencies is an integral part of digital transformation in the region and in Vietnam. Therefore, we encourage individuals accessing these financial technologies to have a basic knowledge of security measures to keep their cryptocurrencies safe.

Specifically, before investing, learn about cryptocurrency exchanges. These platforms provide the means for buying and selling virtual currency units as there are more than 500 exchanges. Do research, read feedback and talk to experienced investors before going any further.

After buying cryptocurrencies, investors need to know how to choose a digital wallet to keep. Because there are different types of wallets, each has different benefits, technical requirements and security. Therefore, players should research hosting options before investing.

However, according to the warning of financial expert – securities Phan Dung Khanh, Investment Advisory Director of Maybank Kim Eng Securities, do not put all your capital in Bitcoin just because it is the only name you know. There are thousands of options and it’s best to divide your investments by a few different units of money. Even so, cryptocurrencies are a volatile market, so if their investment ability or mental health cannot withstand the volatility, cryptocurrencies may not be a wise investment.

In particular, always uphold security when trading virtual money. Ideally, home trading is safer than using a public network, but you need proper security. For starters, it’s a good idea to change your router’s default password because the root password is usually the same for all routers of the same model, making your Wi-fi vulnerable to attack. In any case, it is best to do all electronic transactions over an encrypted VPN channel, which will add an extra layer of security.
