Unleash Innovation to Win. America's path to AI supremacy is through deregulation, abundant energy, and aggressive global exports. Over-regulating our own companies simply hands markets and momentum to China.
Fight for an Open AI Ecosystem. The most pressing AI threat is not existential risk but the creation of a centralized, Orwellian control system. This is enabled by regulatory capture and "woke AI" mandates disguised as safety.
Crypto Needs Clarity, Not Chaos. While AI requires a light touch, the crypto industry needs the opposite: clear, stable, and legislated rules. Ending the "regulation by enforcement" era is critical to bringing innovation back onshore and establishing the U.S. as the world's crypto capital.
Human data is the critical asset. The most valuable—and least glamorous—layer of the AI stack is human intelligence. Its scale, importance, and economic value will only grow.
The future is human-in-the-loop. The next phase of AI development will be defined by agent-human interaction, where automated systems can call upon verified human experts on demand for review and guidance.
Expertise will be licensed. The economic model is shifting toward a future where human expertise can be licensed, allowing individuals to earn passive income for contributing their knowledge to improve AI, much like Spotify pays artists for their music.
Power is the New Bottleneck: The critical constraint in the AI race is no longer chips, but energy and the physical infrastructure to deploy them at scale.
Microsoft's Multi-Layered Bet: Microsoft's value from the OpenAI partnership extends far beyond its equity, encompassing exclusive Azure services, massive IP advantages, and a halo effect that pulls enterprise workloads from competitors.
The Golden Age of Margin Expansion: AI will enable a new productivity curve where companies grow revenue far faster than headcount, fundamentally reshaping workflows and corporate economics.
AI's creative power is judged against an impossible standard. Focus on its ability to remix and generate at a scale that surpasses 99.9% of human output, which is where the true value lies.
The future of AI is not just software but hardware. The next battleground is robotics, where China's industrial ecosystem provides a massive advantage that could eclipse the US software lead.
The ultimate AI products haven't been invented yet. The biggest opportunities lie not in perfecting today's chatbots but in creating the entirely new user experiences that will define the next decade.
Surgical Precision Over Brute Force: 375ai’s model proves that DePIN isn’t just about network size. Strategic placement of high-power hardware can deliver more valuable data with a fraction of the infrastructure.
Go Where the Money Is: Instead of building a demand side from scratch, 375ai is plugging directly into existing data marketplaces, giving them instant access to enterprise giants and a clear path to revenue.
Revenue Directly Fuels the Token: The 80% buy-and-burn mechanism is a powerful flywheel. As data sales grow, so does the direct value accrual to EAT token holders, creating one of the most direct links between utility and tokenomics in the space.
**Verification Is the New Moat.** In a world flooded with AI agents, the ability to prove performance is the most critical bottleneck. Recall’s protocol creates a "proof-of-skill" standard.
**From Hype to Hire.** The platform shifts the paradigm from speculative AI hype to a functional marketplace where businesses can effectively "hire" agents with a proven track record for specific, economically valuable tasks.
**Performance Is the Asset.** By scoring agents based on consistent, real-world results, Recall provides a clear signal for organizations looking to deploy AI and for investors seeking to back top performers.
**The Fed Is Trapped:** Powell is trying to project strength, but the underlying trend is toward more liquidity. The pivot to buying T-bills is a form of stealth QE designed to keep the system functioning.
**Markets Are A Rigged Game:** Forget fundamentals. Public markets are now a positioning game defined by extreme concentration in Big Tech and speculative retail frenzies, widening the gap between Wall Street and Main Street.
**The AI Boom Is A Double-Edged Sword:** While driving incredible earnings, the AI buildout is transforming Big Tech into a riskier, debt-fueled, capex-heavy industry, making the entire economy dangerously dependent on a handful of stocks.
**It's Not a Bubble, It's a Race.** The AI buildout is a rational, ROI-positive arms race funded by cash-rich giants. Unlike the dot-com era’s "dark fiber," today’s GPUs are fully utilized, generating immediate returns.
**Sacrifice Margins or Die.** SaaS companies must abandon their obsession with 90% gross margins. In the AI era, lower margins signal that customers are actually using your product. Embrace them or become irrelevant.
**The New Outcome Economy is Coming.** Business models will pivot from subscriptions to outcomes. AI will enable services to be priced on measurable results, from resolving a customer support ticket to booking the perfect vacation, squeezing inefficiency out of the market.
The Physical World is AI's Final Boss: The speed of AI progress is now governed by the speed of transformers, permits, and power plants. The biggest opportunities are in solving these hard, physical-world bottlenecks.
Specialization is the Only Game in Town: General-purpose is dead. Lasting value will be created through specialized hardware, co-designed software, and tightly integrated systems that optimize for performance-per-watt.
Founders, Ditch the Thin Wrappers: The most durable businesses will not be built on other companies' models. Instead, they will create deep, proprietary feedback loops where the product and the model improve each other.
Crypto as a Political Countermeasure: For Hoskinson, blockchain is the practical tool to enforce the sound money and transparent governance that the US government has abandoned.
The Federal Reserve Is a Core Target: He identifies the Federal Reserve's unchecked power over the monetary supply as a central flaw in the current system, positioning decentralized currencies as a direct challenge to its authority.
A Mission, Not a Job: His daily engagement isn't for financial gain but is driven by the conviction that the fight for a more honest and accountable system is far from over.
Tech Over Hype: Solana’s long-term bet is on fundamental technology. Upgrades like Jito’s BAM are designed to create a superior on-chain environment for sophisticated finance, even if it means losing short-term narrative battles to ETH.
The Institutional Gap: Ethereum is currently winning the institutional game with simple, powerful stories around stablecoins and treasury assets. Solana needs a clearer, more accessible pitch beyond raw performance to compete for this capital.
Performance is Non-Negotiable: The Solana ecosystem is doubling down on its high-throughput thesis. Expect a continued push for more blockspace and faster finality, even if it makes running a validator more exclusive. The trade-off is deemed worth it to bring global-scale finance on-chain.
**Treasury Companies Are A Double-Edged Sword.** They are creating massive buy-side pressure now but pose a systemic risk. Their weak debt covenants could turn a market dip into a liquidation cascade.
**Market Structure Over Fundamentals (For Now).** ETH’s surge exemplifies this trend. Despite weak fundamentals, its powerful technical breakout and role as the next asset for treasury buyers are driving its outperformance.
**Watch the NAV Premium.** The key health metric is the premium-to-NAV on these treasury companies. As long as investors pay $2 for $1 of crypto, the mania continues. A flip to a discount is the canary in the coal mine.
The Cycle is Dead, Long Live the Cycle: The old four-year, retail-driven crypto cycle is over. We're in an institutionally-led "gigachad bull run" that will last through 2026 and push the market cap above $10 trillion, pending regulatory clarity.
Narrative is the Ultimate Metric: Chains that focus on philosophical purity and solving real-world problems (Bitcoin, Cardano) build more resilient communities and long-term value than those chasing fleeting metrics like TPS and TVL.
Bitcoin's Next Chapter will be Written on Cardano: As Bitcoin matures into a yield-bearing asset, its massive capital base will seek returns elsewhere. Cardano’s UTXO model and upcoming interoperability features are designed to capture this flow, positioning it as Bitcoin’s de facto yield layer.
The Dollar's "Gold Moment" is Here. The dollar is decoupling from its traditional anchor (rate differentials) just as gold decoupled from real yields, signaling a permanent regime shift driven by geopolitics, not just economics.
The "Dollar Smile" Has Inverted. The dollar is no longer a reliable risk-off hedge. Its positive correlation with equities means it now falls during market stress—a fundamental rewiring for asset allocators.
The Devaluation Trade is a Trap (For Now). While the long-term bearish case for the dollar is clear, the trade is dangerously crowded. Expect markets to test this one-sided positioning with a painful bounce before the ultimate decline resumes.
**The Real Cycle Indicator:** Forget price targets. The bull market's health is directly tied to the premium-to-NAV on crypto treasury vehicles. When those premiums collapse, the party is over.
**L1s Are Dead Money:** The dominant thesis is a massive market re-rating where capital flees overvalued L1 infrastructure and concentrates into Bitcoin and a handful of cash-flow-positive applications.
**Stablecoins Aren't a Commodity:** The moats are deep. New issuers will struggle to compete with Tether's liquidity network effects and Ethena's structural yield advantage, making it a bear market for new stablecoin startups.
