3 Ways to Profit from a Cashless Society

By Richard Robinson

Tencent absolutely dominates China’s social networks. But its reach goes beyond that.

Tencent is also the world’s leader in electronic gaming, based on sales. And gaming continues to be the company’s largest growth engine. Tencent is already the world’s 11th-biggest company.

And it’s growing fast. Analysts’ revenue estimates through 2020 show an average growth rate of 29.5% per year as revenues more than double to $63.7 billion. Simply put, growth investors must have a position in Tencent.


Investors should consider the PureFunds ISE Mobile Payments Fund (NYSE: IPAY).


Euronet Worldwide (Nasdaq: EEFT) is everywhere. It has 61 offices in 41 countries and is primed to take advantage of the megatrend in mobile payments. But the company also has an ace up its sleeve.

Euronet recently bid nearly $1 billion for MoneyGram. That deal will double Euronet’s revenues and make the company a major player globally.


Buy shares of Tencent Holdings up to $33 per share. Use a $15 hard stop-loss.

Buy shares of IPAY up to $29 a share. Use a 15% trailing stop on the shares.

Buy shares of Euronet Worldwide up to $88. Use a $60 hard stop.

Commit no more than 2% of your portfolio to any one holding. The holding period for all of these securities is five years.

Digital currency bitcoin surged pass US$1,800 for the first time and closed at about HK$1,827 in the evening yesterday, as shown in the Coindesk's bitcoin price index.

With Japan recognizing bitcoin as currency recently, more bitcoins are being bought with Japanese yen.

More users may give bitcoin boost

Bitcoin's value keeps on spiralling and this will likely scare off prudent investors. The most popular virtual currency stood at US$450 (HK$3,510) last year. But it has since gone beyond US$1,700 for the first time this week.

When it was launched in January 2009, one unit was worth only US$0.0001. Since 2010, except 2014, it outperformed other currencies every year. It rose to US$7 per unit in June 2012. But late in 2013, it hit US$1,100 after Chinese investors rushed in.

Every frenzy is followed by a sharp fall. In early 2015, bitcoin plunged to US$200. It resumed its uptrend last year and touched US$1,000 in January this year. Its cumulative gain so far this year is 70 percent.

Bitcoin's popularity has soared in the last few years. In December 2014, Microsoft began accepting bitcoin for purchases of Xbox games and Windows apps.

In July last year, Uber switched to bitcoin in Argentina after it blocked credit cards from being used in Uber. Bitcoin rose after the yuan depreciated late last year.

China's regulators rejected this year two bitcoin exchange traded funds. But early last month, Japan accepted it as legal tender, while Russia said it would consider bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in 2018.

Bitcoin's supply is limited to only 21 million. No one knows how far it will go up further, but some speculate it might hit US$500,000 by 2030.
