🥊 Main Event of the Week
Last week, the US digital payment company announced it will soon allow users to buy, sell, and hold bitcoin (and other cryptocurrencies).
Huh? Why? To encourage the use of cryptos and prepare its network for new ones. The Giant also seems to prepare for the ones that will be developed by central banks in the future.
They’re eyeballing an upcoming revolution in the economy. And setting solid foundations for a future monopoly…

👁 Sneak peek into the future
It's 2025. Hard times for banks in America...
With the recent popularization of crypto and major financial institutions validating them as legit' assets, the current banking system is close to becoming as useful as "diet water" in the financial world.
On top of Bitcoin being a tangible asset for investors, it also takes transactions to a whole new level!
Take Third-World countries: More than a third of the world population didn't have access to basic banking services. That meant no loans and no cashflow for aspiring entrepreneurs over there. A lot of wasted potential...
But now, blockchain technology connects them financially to the rest of the world. Instantaneously. At virtually 0 costs!
Business Angels saw a land of opportunities open right in front of them! And they went all-in: Soon enough, investments started slowing down locally... since all the fun was happening on the other side of the Atlantic.
Many entrepreneurs were now struggling to find investors in America...
But Childish investors took action early, and prepared to take their projects to the next level!

Step 2: Share your vision
Where do you see your project in five years? What’s your exit strategy?
