Smart Tech Revolution: How Blockchain and AI are Reshaping Investment

Two digital revolutions, blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI), are converging, creating smarter ways to manage assets from crypto to private equity.

In Bitcoin terms, the S&P has lost 15 percent year-to-date and a staggering 99.98 percent since 2012, according to The Kobeissi Letter.

Meanwhile, stablecoins have become lifelines for emerging markets, crossing US$160 billion in market cap in June, up from US$150 billion weeks prior.
