One thing I learned:

I did some research on Ark Investments today. An investment firm in which their strategy is to invest/bet in emerging and disruptive technology. It wasn’t until about a month ago that I connected the dots between Cathie Woods and Ark Investments. I honestly thought she was like a Michael Saylor that was just super outspoken about Bitcoin to get publicity. Hey,I personally loved her analysis (and agreed with it) but didn’t know where the credibility came from.

However, a month ago my boss and I were talking about Ark and their Bitcoin ETF and all the dots connected. Yeah, not my brightest moment lol.

Anyways, from an outside perspective Ark is quite admirable. From an investment strategy they 1. focus on crypto and understand that it isn’t just a money play but token can have real utility and have value in a web3 ecosystem. 2. From a culture perspective they really sell the opportunity to make an impact. That is really cool to know your firm wants you to grow and potentially be, find, or create the next big innovation to help the world.
