Crypto Breakdown, and AI Butlers
Breaking down low-risk vs. high-risk crypto, why your personal AI assistant might change your life, and proof you can work anywhere—even in a car.
Good Evening, and welcome back to ToTheUnknown,
The newsletter that’s like finding $20 in your pocket, except instead of cash, you’re getting gold nuggets of knowledge (and maybe a laugh or two).
Today’s edition is a snack-sized (okei, maybe a bit longer) bite of brilliance because, well, I’m short on time.
Think of it as an espresso shot of insight—quick, energizing, and leaving you wanting more.
But don’t worry, tomorrow’s brew is going to be a double-shot, extra-foamy masterpiece.
Here’s what’s on the menu today:
Grab your coffee, buckle up, and let’s dive into the unknown!
🤖 Your Personal AI Butler is Coming – And It's Game-Changing
Imagine this: You’re chatting with an AI that can actually do stuff online in real time. Not just give you answers, but take action. Like having a tech-savvy assistant who never sleeps.
Here’s how it works:
Let’s say you want to plan the ultimate vacation.
You tell your AI:
“Plan a 14-day trip across Spain. My budget is $7,000 (all-inclusive: flights, hotels, transfers). Oh, and I want 5-star hotels only.”
The AI hops onto Travala.com (a travel site built on Solana, for all you crypto nerds) → scours through flights, hotels, and transfers → finds the best deals → builds you a few itineraries–(basically a detailed plan or route of a journey)→ you pick your favourite → it books everything.
Or how about this for the finance lovers:
“Check all Ethereum and Solana DeFi protocols for the best yields. Move my tokens to the top-yielding option. Run this check weekly and optimize my funds automatically.”
Boom.
You’ve got a personal money manager, working 24/7 to maximize your earnings.
No spreadsheets.
No stress.
Just passive gains.
This isn’t some sci-fi future—it’s agential AI.
And it’s about to turn the world upside down.
Why This Matters
Once agential AI becomes mainstream, businesses that don’t adapt to on-chain integration are toast.
Think about how Blockbuster thought streaming was a fad—and now they’re just a nostalgic meme.
Companies that fail to embrace this new wave will get left behind faster than a fax machine at an iPhone convention.
And here’s the kicker: this tech could be bigger than Google Search. (Yes, I said it. Bigger than the tool that made "Googling" a verb.)
It’s not just about convenience; it’s about unlocking new ways to interact with the world. Business, travel, finances—this is the future, and it’s not waiting for anyone.
Literal chills.
Tomorrow, I’ll drop an update on where other AI agents (that I have already discussed, and new Ai) stand and how they’re shaping up.
Stay tuned!
🛠️ What I’ve Been Up To: Crypto Notes Edition
Alright, friends, buckle up because today, we’re diving into the crypto rabbit hole together.
I’ve been learning a ton about crypto recently—like, eight pages of handwritten notes worth—and while I’m only scratching the surface, I figured, “Why not share a sneak peek with you?”
Here’s the thing: crypto can feel like a maze filled with “to-the-moon” promises, confusing buzzwords, and a lot of drama.
But today, we’re cutting through the noise with some practical tips and strategies that even a 10-year-old could understand (hopefully).
Split Your Portfolio Like a Pizza
When it comes to crypto investing, think of your portfolio as a pizza. 🍕
80–100% = Low-risk slices (the “cheese pizza” of investments—basic, solid, and always reliable).
0–20% = High-risk slices (your “spicy pineapple jalapeno” gamble—might be amazing, might be terrible).
🍕 Low-Risk Assets
These are your Bitcoin ($BTC), Ethereum ($ETH), and Solana ($SOL)—the OGs of crypto.
Think of it like this: investing in these is like getting a 150% annual return on every $1 you invest.
Yep, you read that right—150%!
Sounds crazy, right?
But that's the power of low-risk assets in the crypto space.
With numbers like that, it’s hard to argue against dipping your toes into crypto.
Even big players like BlackRock (yes, BlackRock) and other major institutions recommend allocating at least 2% of your portfolio to crypto.
Think about it—
If the big players are calling it "essential," why wouldn’t you want at least a small slice of the action?
Heck, having at least some exposure to crypto could make a big difference in the future!
Key Traits of Low-Risk Assets (yes, they exist):
Product Market Fit: People actually use it consistently over time. Think of it like your favorite app—if it's been popular for years, it's probably not going anywhere.
Network Effects: The more people use it, the stronger it gets. Think WhatsApp—popular because everyone else is on it too.
Battle Tested: It’s survived insane market crashes (aka “crypto winters”) and still bounced back.
Truly Decentralized: No single person or entity can take it down—safe from hackers and governments.
The Usual Suspects for Low-Risk Crypto:
Solid Low-Risk Picks:
“Sorta” Low-Risk Picks:
These assets are like the sturdy, blue-chip stocks of crypto. They’re not immune to dips, but they’ve got solid foundations and a history of bouncing back. 🛠️
Why it’s low-risk
It’s decentralized, battle-tested, and has a massive network of users who rely on it.
🌶️ High-Risk Assets
Now for the thrill-seekers: high-risk assets.
These are your “lottery tickets” of crypto—promising 50x or 100x returns but just as likely to go to zero.
Key Traits of High-Risk Assets:
Hype-Driven: Popular because of social media or celebrity endorsements (looking at you, Elon).
Unproven: No track record and not enough use cases.
Volatile: Can skyrocket one day and tank the next.
The Usual Suspects for High-Risk Crypto:
Memecoins like $BONK.
New projects that sound too good to be true (I don’t have any examples, but you’ll know them when you see them.
Coins with ridiculous names like FluffyUnicornInu (yes, these exist. Well existed)
Example: Remember that friend who invested in a meme coin because Elon Musk tweeted about it? Yeah, that’s high-risk.
The rule here: Only invest what you’re okay losing entirely. High-risk assets are like buying lottery tickets—fun, but don’t bet your savings on them.
1/ Invest in what you know and understand (this goes with everything, including stock investing)
Love gaming? Go play Web3… (okei, some of you (maybe most) don’t know what Web3 is. It’s a new chapter of the internet, basically like web1 and web2 (the internet) were. It incorporates concepts such as decentralization, blockchain technologies, and token-based economics) games and invest in projects that actually make sense to you.
Example: If you’re obsessed with Pokémon, check out blockchain games with similar vibes—just make sure they’re legit.
2/ Do Your Research
Most people in this space (probably in stock market as well, but let’s be honest, everybody only invest in S&P500 and HODL (Hold on for Dear Life) don’t put in the work. If yu actually put in the work you have a massive upper-hand.
Pro Tip: If you wouldn’t put $100 into a stock without researching the company, why do it with a coin named after a dog?
3/ Use the tech
Most people don’t do this either. Just use it and judge it for yourself, you'll be surprised at what crap “influencers” tell you to invest in
4/ Consentration makes you rich; diversification keeps you rich
If you don’t have a lot of money, don’t try to buy too many positions, you’ll end up minimizing returns and focus. I’ll tell you, I have this problem, I have too many assets under my belt (in stock market). I feel like I’m all over the place. But still, don’t begin to trade, it relly minimises returns by a lot. (If you haven’t read “Fooled by Randomness” by Nassim N. Taleb, it really gives you a different perspective on this world of finances. Also, MFM recently came out with a podcast that I’m in the midle of listening: Investing Wisdom from Nassim Taleb, plus ChatGPT Questions That Will Change Your Life)
Instead do the reseach, find the best assets and build out your conviction, then allocate. Follow along the assets journey, that’s how you hit the big plays. I know it’s easier said than done, but hey, that’s life and you have to push through these things inorder to achieve something great.
5/ Don’t chase pumps and FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out)
Pack your bags now (not when we’re back at all time highs). Get into good projects early and ride them up the cycle (this can only be done really, when you understand everything, the macro, and the market indicators. More of them next Sunday). This is the only way you’ll get your big 100x, 1000x returns, if any.
6/ Measure your token returns against $ETH (or $SOL if investing in the Solana ecosystem) not $USD
You might think you’re doing well, especially in the bull, in dollar terms, but if you hold on too long, these lower-risk assets will quickly outperform your (word-to-word) Shitcoins once the mania is over. Basically, high-risk assets need to outperform these juggernauts—if they don’t, why bother?
Remember, crypto is a rollercoaster, not a savings account.
Buckle up, enjoy the ride, and only invest/bet what you’re willing to lose.
P.S. Next Sunday, I’ll dive deeper into how to spot good projects, why DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) is your best friend, and more of my crypto notes. I still have soo much to cover.
P.P.S. Remember, crypto isn’t for everyone, and that’s okay. But if you’re curious, take it slow, learn, and (this is the most important) never invest more than you’re willing to lose.
That’s a wrap for today, folks! 🎤 Mic drop
