LIVE: Gold vs. Bitcoin & MoltBook | 0xResearch

0xResearch

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The Macro Shift: Geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty are driving a global re-allocation of capital, with Eastern wealth increasingly favoring hard assets and localized crypto rails. This challenges Western-centric market analysis and demands a broader, more nuanced view of global finance.
  2. The Tactical Edge: Cultivate deep domain expertise and critical thinking, using AI as an amplification tool, not a replacement for learning. Focus on areas where human judgment, taste, and the ability to translate AI insights into real-world value remain irreplaceable.
  3. The Bottom Line: The next 6-12 months will see continued divergence in global capital flows and accelerating AI integration. Investors must track opaque Eastern market signals, while builders should prioritize AI applications that augment human capability rather than simply automate, ensuring their skills remain relevant in an increasingly AI-driven world.
