Ideas
Hold Bitcoin for multi-decade adoption.
Bitcoin and crypto are multi-decade trades that can still change the world; severe drawdowns are normal, but holding for 5-10 years has historically doubled money or more. Institutional ownership remains extremely low, with the median institutional investor holding essentially nothing, creating future demand as institutions eventually have to buy crypto.
Discounted DATs attractive on consolidation accretion.
Digital asset treasury companies trading below net asset value become attractive because larger, well-run DATs with access to capital can buy smaller ones at 60-80 cents on the dollar accretively. This should drive consolidation over 12-18 months, and buying at a discount to par adds extra return.
Solana ETF yield offers attractive setup.
Yield on products like the Grayscale Solana ETF may be underappreciated; if purchased at the right price, investors can lock in an attractive return that is hard to find in the market.
Crypto bottom in, resume higher.
Crypto market has endured a relentless bear phase and people have been getting out of the way, but because investors have anticipated the cycle, the bottom may be in and prices can resume higher. He also observes that buy-and-hold Bitcoin has worked over long periods.
Degenerate economy has huge investable companies.
The degenerate economy has expanded from sin stocks into a huge ecosystem spanning gambling and prediction markets, trading apps, crypto exchanges, delivery, and nicotine alternatives. He lives it and sees it as a major investable theme, though with good, bad, and ugly parts.
Own SanDisk over underfollowed Nvidia.
Social relative strength favors buying stocks with high price relative strength that are underfollowed. He would own SanDisk over Nvidia because a breakout with little social following in a similar industry is a stronger signal.

Debasement trade spreads to gold silver.
The debasement trade has broadened beyond Bitcoin into gold and silver. Retail investors are learning and crowding into precious metals through limited vehicles like SLV and SI, creating momentum that can be front-run.
DeFi essential and lending cheaper onchain.
DeFi is essential to crypto and market structure. Tokenized lending is cheaper than traditional securities lending, and demand for 24/7 digitally native products is strong, so DeFi and tokenized products should benefit as regulation advances.
USDS yield stablecoin supply doubling.
Sky's USDS is the world's largest yield-generating stablecoin, offering efficient risk-adjusted yield. More than $300 billion of stablecoins earn little or no yield, and USDS supply doubled last year with another doubling expected, making it a top-of-funnel beneficiary as capital seeks onchain yield.
Sky buybacks supply growth support.
Sky is generating strong profits and using them to buy back the Sky token. With supply expected to double again and more than $90 million in profits supporting buybacks, the token has a direct cash-flow and buyback catalyst.
Revenue-generating DeFi projects to outperform.
Crypto is becoming more institutional and fundamental-focused. Established, revenue-generating blue-chip DeFi projects like Sky are entering a phase where less noise and more focus on revenue should translate into growth, momentum, and success in 2026.
Tokenized stocks see strong offshore demand.
Demand for tokenized US stocks and ETFs is real, especially offshore where access is limited. Ondo's platform has seen only three net outflow days, capital is coming in, and distribution partnerships with Binance Wallet, MetaMask, OKX, and Bitget make it easier for crypto exchanges to offer these assets.
