Look Inside

Crypto asset investing in the age of autonomy Ebook

Competition, the drive for efficiency, and continuous improvement ultimately push businesses toward automation and later towards autonomy. If a business can operate without the need for human intervention, it will minimize its operational cost. If Uber can remove the expense of a driver with an autonomous vehicle, it will provide its service cheaper than a competitor who cant. If an artificially-intelligent trading company can search, find and take advantage of some arbitrage opportunity, then it can profit where its competitors cannot. A business that can analyze and execute in real-time without needing to wait for a human to act, is a business that will be able to take advantage of brief inefficiencies from other markets or businesses. Autonomy is the ultimate competitive advantage. Crypto Asset Investing lays out a case that weve begun a new technological revolution similar to the Internet Age of the 1990s. Artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, robotics and cryptocurrency are converging to deliver on a new age, what I call the Age of Autonomy. Understanding the transformation thats taken place before anyone else can yield enormous investment opportunity. In this book, youll learn how and why to invest in crypto assets.
