⚡️ Context graphs: AI’s trillion-dollar opportunity — Jaya Gupta, Ashu Garg, Foundation Capital

Latent Space

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. The move from general-purpose LLMs to specialized AI agents demands a new data architecture that captures the *why* of decisions, not just the *what*. This creates a new, defensible layer of institutional memory, moving value from raw model IP to proprietary decision intelligence.
  2. Invest in or build agentic systems that are in the *orchestration path* of specific business processes. This allows for the organic capture of decision traces, forming a proprietary context graph that incumbents cannot easily replicate.
  3. Over the next 12 months, the ability to build and extract value from context graphs will define the winners in the enterprise AI space, creating a new "context graph stack" that will be 10x more valuable than the modern data stack.

What To Own This Cycle?

1000x Podcast

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. Own What Institutions Buy. This is not a crypto-native cycle. The winning strategy is to hold the assets institutions are buying: Bitcoin, Ethereum, and potentially Ripple as a speculative trade on its IPO.
  2. Trade Crypto Stocks Like Memes. Public companies like Galaxy are being driven by retail hype, not fundamentals. This creates high-volatility trading opportunities for those who can ride the narrative waves.
  3. Hold Your Conviction. The macro backdrop is incredibly bullish. Don't let healthy, short-term corrections driven by "amateur hour" traders shake you out of your positions before the real move happens.

The Bull Case For GLXY

Empire

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. A Sum-of-the-Parts Discount: The market is failing to properly value Galaxy’s three distinct segments. The existing data center deal with CoreWeave alone is arguably worth more than the current stock price, meaning investors get the robust crypto business and a multi-billion dollar balance sheet for free.
  2. Unmatched Credibility in AI Pivot: Galaxy’s multi-billion dollar balance sheet is its trump card. It provides the financial muscle and credibility to secure financing and execute massive data center projects, a feat cash-burning Bitcoin miners can only talk about.
  3. An Execution-Driven Rocket Ship: The current valuation offers a significant margin of safety. If management successfully executes the full buildout of Helios and secures new tenants for its massive power pipeline, the upside is astronomical.

How The U.S. Controls The Global Economy

Bankless

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. Crypto Is America's Counter-Offensive. The U.S. is betting on privately-issued, regulated stablecoins—not a government-backed digital dollar—to maintain its edge in global payments. This strategy mirrors how it co-opted the offshore Eurodollar market in the 1970s to expand the dollar’s influence.
  2. The Rise of Parallel Systems. The weaponization of the dollar is forcing countries like China to build their own financial infrastructure (e.g., the M-Bridge platform). This guarantees a future where nations have multiple payment networks to choose from, eroding the U.S.’s unique leverage.
  3. Sanctions Are Not a Free Lunch. While a powerful alternative to military conflict, economic sanctions must be used judiciously. Overusing them risks dulling their impact and ultimately dismantling the very system that grants the U.S. its power.
