Elbaite

Elbaite didn't start with an idea. It started with a loss. After having cryptocurrency stolen through a third-party exchange, founder Morty Tollo saw how vulnerable users really were. So he teamed up with his sister Samira Tollo to build an alternative. Together, they created a platform where people can trade cryptocurrency while retaining custody of their assets, removing the need to trust a third party. Now, Elbaite is making crypto trading safer and more transparent every single day. This is what happens when experience turns into something better.

Last week, lines stretched around the block outside Sydney’s ABC Bullion as gold prices hit a record high. At the same time, Bitcoin has quietly risen more than 100% year-on-year. Gold and Bitcoin reflect the same investor mindset: preserving value in uncertain times. Gold has served that role for thousands of years. Bitcoin has done so for just over a decade. Both respond to similar forces: inflation, interest rate changes, and uncertainty about traditional markets. Understanding how each performs across market cycles helps build stronger, more resilient portfolios.
