In this conversation, we discuss Bitcoin's “IPO moment” — why investors are feeling disappointed, what's really happening beneath the surface, and how these dynamics could reshape portfolios in the months ahead.  Jordi also shares his perspective on Tesla, artificial intelligence, and the shifting political landscape — explaining how the New York City mayor race and overall market sentiment could influence the next phase of global investing.======================Check out my NEW show for daily bite-sized breakdowns of the biggest stories in finance, technology, and politics: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://pompdesk.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠======================This episode is brought to you by Figure (https://figuremarkets.co/pomp), the platform to Earn and Borrow.

Zak Mir talks to Paul Mathieson, CEO of Amazing AI, in the wake of the global fintech group, which has a Digital Asset Treasury Policy that provides online consumer loans and AI finance-related services. AAI announces that, via its 100% owned Mauritius subsidiary Amazing AI Services Ltd, it has made its initial, small and non-material purchase of digital assets within its Digital Asset Treasury as part of a strategic implementation test. Amazing AI plc (AQSE: AAI) has taken its first step into digital assets, confirming that its subsidiary Amazing AI Services Ltd has established a Digital Asset Treasury with an initial Bitcoin acquisition valued in the low four-figure USD range. The company said it will use a dollar-cost averaging strategy to build its position and plans to expand its holdings to include Ethereum, XRP, and Solana before the end of December 2025. Amazing AI is also exploring the addition of a fifth digital asset, potentially gold-backed, as part of a broader diversification strategy. Management said the company intends to increase its overall exposure to digital assets through selective acquisitions while continuing to prioritise its core artificial intelligence operations. Paul Mathieson, CEO of Amazing AI plc said, “We are excited to have made our initial purchase in our Digital Asset Treasury. We believe that AAI's strategy is Digital Asset Treasury 3.0, aiming to provide greater upside whilst insulating Amazing AI from downside exposure across a diversified basket of leading digital assets. By being patient and strategic we have avoided the recent significant price correction in digital assets.”

Amazing AI Plc (AQSE:AAI) CEO and founder Paul Mathieson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's unique approach to digital asset investment and its dual business model rooted in US consumer lending. Mathieson explained that Amazing AI continues to operate a licensed lending business across six US states. The company has expanded its model by launching a digital asset treasury strategy that uses advanced options trading. Rather than directly purchasing Bitcoin, the company uses call and put options to gain leveraged exposure—up to 100 times—to a basket of digital assets including Ethereum, XRP, Solana and potentially gold-linked and AI-based tokens like Tal. “We're not just reliant on the performance of Bitcoin. We have a strategy that makes money if it goes down or up,” Mathieson said. He described Amazing AI's strategy as “Treasury 3.0”, which focuses on diversification and institutional-level trading mechanics, contrasting with other companies that simply buy and hold crypto. The company is also looking to acquire undervalued treasury businesses that can no longer meet new stock exchange rules, integrating those assets into its balanced model of lending and digital asset trading. Mathieson added that Amazing AI would deploy capital over the next two months using a dollar-cost averaging approach to take advantage of current market conditions.

Crypto isn't the narrative driver anymore; it's the infrastructure layer powering the real exponential stories: AI, energy, and robotics. From why altcoins are cooked, to how AI spending is fueling Bitcoin's next run, Kyle explains why investors need to stop waiting for altseason and start thinking bigger. We're not saying crypto is over. We're saying the way you invest in it has to change, fast.~~~~~

Durfinvesteerder Andreessen Horowitz heeft zijn jaarlijkse State of Crypto-rapport gepubliceerd. Volgens A16Z is de cryptomarkt in 2025 echt volwassen geworden. Dat blijkt niet alleen uit de prijzen, maar vooral uit de onderliggende infrastructuur en het gebruik ervan. In het rapport valt op dat stablecoins inmiddels een serieuze rol spelen in het mondiale betalingsverkeer. De waarde van transacties met stablecoins is voor het eerst groter dan die van traditionele betaalnetwerken als PayPal. Daarmee laat de sector zien dat het niet langer alleen gaat om speculatie, maar ook om daadwerkelijk gebruik. A16Z benadrukt daarnaast dat institutionele beleggers de markt steeds meer omarmen. Grote vermogensbeheerders gebruiken publieke blockchains om fondsen te tokeniseren of als onderdeel van handelsprocessen. Dat maakt de scheidslijn tussen de traditionele financiële wereld en de cryptosector steeds dunner. Ook het gebruik van publieke blockchaininfrastructuur groeit hard. Duizenden bedrijven bouwen nieuwe toepassingen op netwerken als Ethereum, Base en Solana, waarbij de nadruk ligt op schaalbaarheid en efficiëntie. Toch is Andreessen Horowitz geen neutrale partij. De investeerder heeft miljarden geïnvesteerd in tientallen cryptobedrijven en protocollen. Van infrastructuurprojecten tot handelsplatformen: A16Z heeft er belang bij dat de sector floreert. Dat neemt niet weg dat het rapport een goed beeld geeft van de verschuiving in de markt: van hype naar volwassen gebruik. Opmerkelijk is ook dat het rapport uitgebreid stil staat bij Bitcoin. De munt wordt genoemd als ‘digitale reserve’, een ankerpunt binnen een steeds breder ecosysteem van digitale activa. In de prijsanalyse kijkt Bert Slagter naar het koersverloop van de afgelopen weken. Ondanks de rustige markt ziet hij tekenen van een “grote rotatie”: oude beleggers die hun bitcoin verkopen aan nieuwe instappers. Dat proces begon al toen de koers de grens van 100.000 dollar doorbrak. Zolang bitcoin zijwaarts beweegt en andere markten wel stijgen, blijft de vraag hoe lang deze fase nog aanhoudt en wat dit betekent voor de langere termijn. Tot slot in het nieuwsoverzicht: Consensys, het bedrijf achter de populaire MetaMask-wallet, wil naar de beurs. De laatste waardering van zeven miljard dollar dateert uit 2022. Naast MetaMask ontwikkelt Consensys ook tools voor bedrijven en ontwikkelaars in het Ethereum-ecosysteem. Tegelijk werkt het bedrijf aan een eigen token die gebruikers moet gaan belonen. De beursgang past in een reeks cryptobedrijven die hun weg naar Wall Street hebben gevonden. Co-host is Jacob Boersma.
