Jeff Park is a macro strategist and Bitwise advisor who believes the financial system is broken beyond repair for young people - from unaffordable housing to AI displacing an entire generation's jobs.
He breaks down why real estate is actually a depreciating asset, why Bitcoin is the ultimate escape, and how AI will ignite the biggest wave of Bitcoin adoption the world has ever seen.
Occupy AI will be a pivotal moment for Gen Z and Gen Alpha, leading them to discover Bitcoin through an 'aha moment,' much like millennials during the great financial crisis. I am very bullish on the potential of real estate tokenization to reshape finance. This clip explores how these moments impact our understanding of digital assets and investing.
