Crypto was the training ground

The author argues that crypto was a training ground that prepared them for the AI-driven world now emerging, even though the current bear market has been harder than any since they bought their first BTC 13 years ago. They attribute the downturn partly to AI, which has taken public attention from crypto since ChatGPT's release, and say the retail losses from FTX, Celsius, BlockFi and Anchor were especially damaging. They remain bullish on broader adoption, bitcoin and privacy coins like $ZEC, and expect attention to return to crypto tied to AI, agents and possibly depin/robotics.
