When I got into crypto, I was struck by how little integration there was between mainstream tech and financial services.
Turns out finance carries more complexity and a lot more liability than typical apps and consumer tech. You can't just move fast and break things when people's money is at stake.
Crypto forced the issue by providing open global platforms for storing value, payments, and DeFi. This accelerated the convergence of finance and tech, despite regulators and incumbents across both Silicon Valley and TradFi showing little enthusiasm for crypto. But progress remained pretty slow until recently.
Finally, AI and the emerging agentic economy are forcing change. For the first time, regulators, TradFi, crypto, and big tech must all participate in financial innovation and move in the same direction.
That's the reason I'm optimistic about Kraken. It sits right in the eye of the gathering tornado where all things finance and tech are converging.

The AI compute deals today aren’t just infra news — they’re a leading indicator of how much capital and conviction is flowing into the intelligence layer that will power the next wave of on-chain products and agentic workflows. For crypto and overall fintech, the key question is ---- are we building the rails and foundation that these agents will actually use at scale (identity, payments, verifiable execution, data access)? Demand is being locked in years out. Supply and interface layers that serve it will compound. These are all leading indicators.
