Teeka's Note: Friends, I have a special gift I'd like to share with you today… My chief analyst, Houston Molnar, has uncovered a megatrend he believes is in its early stages – just like bitcoin was when I first came across it. You'll think the idea is crazy. But I urge you to carefully consider it. If Houston is right – and I believe his research suggests he is – we could be on the cusp of a technological revolution. And we're getting in before 99.9% of the world's population. Here's why today's Daily is so special… It's an excerpt from my flagship publication, Big T's Inside Crypto. Generally, you'd have to pay as much as $5,000 per year to get access to this type of research. But after you read this excerpt from Houston's latest issue, you'll see it's well worth the price to position yourself in these early-stage trends years ahead of the masses. |

This Massive Trend Could Change Your Financial Future in 2025 |
If you want to know the secret to successfully investing in groundbreaking technology, take a look at this photo from 2013… |
| Source: YouTube |
|
At first glance, there's nothing special about the photo. You see a man speaking to a near-empty conference room. |
But once you find out who this man is… And what he was talking about… You'll see why today, it's considered one of the most famous photos in cryptocurrency history. |
The speaker is Andreas Antonopoulos. At the time, he was an early bitcoin advocate and tech entrepreneur. Today, he's a best-selling author, speaker, educator, and highly sought-after expert in bitcoin and blockchain technologies. |
The above photo shows a presentation Antonopoulos gave to a sparsely attended crowd at the 2013 Bitcoin Conference in San Jose, California. |
At that time, bitcoin (BTC) was trading around $120. No one cared about it. As you can see, the room is nearly empty. |
But imagine if you were one of the five people in the picture who attended Antonopoulos' presentation. And imagine you'd plunked down $1,000 to buy some BTC. |
If you held it until now, you'd be sitting on $883,000 at the time of this writing. |
And that's the simple secret to making money in early-stage tech investing: Get into groundbreaking ideas before they become mainstream. |
Now, this is easier said than done. |
The five people in the picture likely had their doubts when they looked around and saw all those empty seats. |
Some probably thought Antonopoulos was crazy. |
But those who believed in him and invested in bitcoin as adoption increased likely made a fortune. |
If you didn't... well, you're probably kicking yourself to this day. |
But we don't need to travel back in time to fix what would have been a catastrophic mistake. Today, I'm here to tell you history is repeating itself... and giving us a rare chance to take advantage of a similar opportunity. |
Today, I'm going to show you a photo I took during a recent research trip to a crypto conference in Europe. |
It's eerily similar to the photo of Antonopoulos' presentation in 2013. |
Based on my travels, only a small number of people are paying attention to this moneymaking opportunity right now – which means we can get in extremely early. |
This Is How You Know You're in Before the Masses |
Last month, I (Houston) attended the 2024 Crypto AI Conference in Lisbon, Portugal. It focuses on the intersection of blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. |
Now, I've attended dozens of crypto conferences and meetups this year, including major conferences like August's Bitcoin 2024 in Nashville and September's Solana Breakpoint conference in Singapore. |
(You can read my reports from these conferences here, here, and here.) |
Nearly every event at these crypto conferences is packed to the brim. You can't get into most of them unless you know someone important. |
But here's a photo I took just five minutes before the first presentation at this particular conference… |

|
When I walked into the venue, I wondered if I had come at the wrong time. Very few people were in attendance. |
The scene reminded me of the photo I shared above from the 2013 Bitcoin Conference. |
And that's when it hit me. |
We're very early in what I believe will be one of the biggest megatrends of the future: The merger of AI and blockchain technologies. I'll tell you what this merger means in a moment. But it ignited a fire in my brain. |
Here's what I mean by that… |
If you've been following Teeka over the years, you may be familiar with the story of how he became an early proponent of bitcoin. |
Back in 2016, Teeka traveled to the Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show (CES). It's the largest technology showcase in the world. |
At the time, innovation awards went to products like the eGeeTouch Smart Fingerprint-NFC Luggage Loc, Owlet Baby Monitor, and Whirlpool Smart Top Load. |
There was just one speaker talking about bitcoin (BTC). And even then, Teeka was one of the few people in attendance. |
The speaker explained what bitcoin was… why it was valuable… and, more importantly, why its underlying blockchain technology would be so revolutionary. |
And when Teeka fully grasped the power of the blockchain, a lightbulb went off in his head. He had seen the future. |
So he immediately changed his travel plans, flew back to Florida, and told his publisher, "I'm writing about bitcoin." |
Mind you, this was three years after the photo of Antonopoulos was taken. Even in 2016, few people were aware of bitcoin. So it was still early in the game. |
Long story short: Teeka listened to a gifted speaker's talk on bitcoin. He showed Teeka the future of crypto and blockchain with complete clarity. After his talk, Teeka finally understood why bitcoin had value. |
In Teeka's words, "It was as close to a religious experience as I've ever had." |
Soon after the event, Teeka recommended bitcoin to his readers at around $420. If you'd bought $1,000 worth of bitcoin in 2016, your stash would now be worth close to $251,400. |
Since the beginning of the month, bitcoin has traded well over $100,000. And Teeka has been voted the most-trusted expert in the crypto industry. |
We believe it'll go at least as high as $150,000 this bull cycle. And $1 million by the end of the decade. |
But bitcoin is maturing as an asset. And your chances to turn $1,000 into $883,000 or $251,000 with the granddaddy of crypto are over. |
That brings me back to the photo I took from Crypto AI in Lisbon… If you want a sure sign that we're still early in what I believe is a huge megatrend in 2025, this is it. |
The Biggest Trend of 2025 |
I believe the merger of AI and blockchain technology will be the biggest tech megatrend of the next decade. But many mainstream analysts haven't awakened to it yet. |
Just like they were behind the curve when Antonopoulos pounded the table on bitcoin in 2013… And Teeka officially recommended adding bitcoin to your portfolio in 2016… |
When I was at this conference, a similar lightbulb went off in my head. I understood this collision of megatrends will be transformative. And as I'll explain below, it'll create a wave of wealth unlike any we've seen so far. |
And there's no better time to get in than when no one else is in the room. But there's always a cost to getting in before the masses... |
I tell you this because I want you to be forewarned. The idea I'm about to reveal is so out there, you may think I'm crazy. But it isn't science fiction. It's science fact. |
The technology I'm referring to is AI agents. And if you've been following us for the past few months, you'll be familiar with the term. |
Basically, AI agents are more advanced forms of AI chatbots. |
If you use the internet, you're probably already familiar with AI chatbots. They can answer questions… Write articles, social media posts, emails, and resumes… And help you book a travel reservation. |
At Tiwari Research Group, we use an AI bot to transcribe and organize our videos of our weekly editorial meetings. We just hop on a Zoom call, and the AI bot adds captions and suggests images to improve the overall meeting experience. |
But AI agents will do much more. |
Rather than simply transcribing videos, an AI agent would be able to understand what we're saying and form its own opinions. It would also be able to search the internet to provide us suggestions on how we can improve our research. |
Having an AI agent is like having another person working for you. |
Unlike AI chatbots, which you have to prompt to carry out tasks or get a response, the next generation of AI will think for itself. |
AI agents act on behalf of their human creators. They can achieve specific goals or tasks autonomously. For instance, they can answer emails, plan schedules, and help complete tasks at your job. |
Once developed, they don't need a single input from humans. Over time, they can learn to reason and even improve from their mistakes. |
And these AI agents are evolving faster than anyone can comprehend. They are doing everything from creating music to starting hedge funds. |
While AI agents are advancing by leaps and bounds, there is one task they can't fulfill for their creators yet: Making financial transactions. |
Until that hurdle is overcome, AI agents will never reach their full potential. And as I learned at the sparsely attended AI Crypto Conference, there's a perfect solution already in the works to solve this problem. |
Blockchain technology. |
Pairing AI agents with blockchain will usher in a new economic era. And create massive fortunes for those who are positioned early. |
The Next Stage of AI Will Need Blockchain |
You're probably familiar with ChatGPT. It's an AI chatbot that can respond to questions and write content like articles, social media posts, emails, and more. |
ChatGPT launched in November 2022, and it took the world by storm. Within five days, it gained over 1 million users. And in two months, it topped 100 million. |
Since then, we've seen all the major tech companies — Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta, and Microsoft – spend billions of dollars to launch their own chatbots. |
Developers train chatbots to interact with humans using massive amounts of text data called large language models (LLMs). |
Just like a child learns language by reading books and listening to adults, chatbots learn to communicate using LLMs. |
While you can train chatbots to perform specific tasks – book an airline ticket… order a pizza… fill a prescription… or search the internet for a recipe to bake a red velvet cake – they can't act autonomously. In other words, you have to prompt AI chatbots to carry out tasks. They can't do them on their own volition. |
That's where the next generation of AI comes in. They're called "AI Agents." We first wrote about them in our November issue of Inside Crypto. (Paid-up subscribers can read it right here.) |
Here's what I (Houston) wrote about AI Agents in November: |
Chatbots are just the first iteration of AI. They're like dial-up modems. What comes next will be like high-speed internet. It'll be a massive leap forward. Just like modern humans evolved from less intelligent hominids, a more intelligent type of AI is evolving from AI chatbots. And unlike AI chatbots, which you have to prompt to carry out tasks or get a response, the next generation of AI will think for itself. |
|
|
In the future, we believe everyone will have his or her own AI agent. They'll be as ubiquitous as smartphones. |
But there's one thing holding today's most popular AI chatbots back from their full AI agent potential: The tech giants who develop them. |
You see, the developers at companies like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI train their AI models behind closed doors and with plenty of guardrails. |
They do this because companies want to protect their proprietary technology, intellectual property, and patents from rivals. |
Of course, this makes sense. No company wants to publicize its secrets. While keeping tech proprietary is understandable, it also imprisons their AI chatbots in walled gardens. |
Think of a walled garden as a classroom run by a strict teacher who continuously trains their students on one subject and one subject only. Those students will master that subject, but they'll be incapable of doing anything else. |
That's how developers currently train AI chatbots. |
Now, imagine enrolling those students in a university setting. In an environment like that, they can learn multiple subjects. |
More importantly, they can interact with people from different backgrounds, improving their social skills and adaptability. |
That's how developers will train AI agents. And they'll use "open source" technology to do it. |
Open-source technology is code made publicly accessible. Anyone can see, modify, and distribute the code as they see fit. It's developed in a decentralized and collaborative way, relying on peer review and community production. |
Because open-source software is developed by communities rather than a single author or company, it's cheaper, more flexible, and more innovative than proprietary software. |
If proprietary software is like a walled-garden classroom… Open-source software is like a university. |
And in our view, there's no greater open-source technology than blockchain. |
Unlike proprietary tech used by corporations, blockchain enables anyone in the world to contribute to the development of AI agents, allowing them to learn in a similar manner to humans. |
On top of this, AI agents will need a place to transact. |
The legal and ethical implications of AI "personhood" is beyond the scope of what we do in Inside Crypto. But suffice it to say, AI agents aren't considered humans. So they can't open a traditional bank account like you and I can – not even on our behalf. |
Because it's permissionless – meaning you don't need any identification or authorization to use it – anyone can transact over the blockchain, including AI agents. |
When you get down to it, AI and blockchain technology is a match made in heaven. |
We're already seeing AI agents manage investment funds… Create and sell art and music online… And accept donations on behalf of people. |
This is only possible because of the permissionless nature of blockchains. |
I know all this sounds futuristic. But we're at the bleeding-edge of technology. It's similar to when Teeka started recommending a new form of "money" in 2016. |
Back then, you could buy this new form of money for about $400. Today, it's worth over $100,000. Again, at the time of this writing, that's a 25,138% gain, which would turn every $1,000 into $251,400. |
I know getting early on a trend is uncomfortable. Everyone will call you crazy. They'll tell you it's not achievable. They'll ridicule you. |
But that's the price you pay to position yourself early in a groundbreaking trend. And that's how we position you 5-10 years ahead of 99% of the population. |
Regards, |
Houston Molnar |
P.S. While the merger of AI and blockchain technology will be a major trend in 2025, there's a more immediate catalyst on the horizon that could kickstart a melt-up phase in crypto. |
Teeka believes this event will be bigger than all the bitcoin halvings combined. And it will be bigger than the approval of the spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs)… |
We're talking about a bull run similar to 2017, when his readers had the chance to turn $1,000 into as much as $367,000 in Binance… $543,000 in Ethereum… And over $1.5 million in Neo. |
So if you want a chance to reach your financial freedom in 2025, then you need to attend this special briefing on Tuesday, January 14 at 8 p.m. ET called Freedom 2025. |
You can click here to reserve your seat. |
And on January 14, Teeka will explain what this catalyst is, how he's setting up his readers to play it... and a brand-new way to reap the biggest gains. |
