Did you see that clip that was going around the internet?

It was a clip of Sam Altman at some interview.

He said, he was talking about how, yeah, I think ads are like a last resort business model for chat GPT.

That was like two years ago or something.

I suppose that underlines or emphasizes why you are so grateful for crypto's funding of things.

Is because it's kind of like leveraging a third business model or just like a new strategy that's just outside of what came before it.

Let's talk about positive feedback loops because that's definitely what happened to Zcash recently.

Let's talk about Zcash.

There's been just a ton of attention on Zcash lately.

Brought on by this incredible price action.

So like Zcash, I think something in like September or October was $50 for a single Zcash transaction.

Ran all the way up to $750.

Came back down to where it is now at $350.

So pretty incredible, incredible price performance.

No advertising and no lock-in.
