What does tokenization mean for the world? This week, Autonomous Technology and Robotics Director of Research Sam Korus and Associate Portfolio Manager Nicholas Grous are joined by ARK Research Associate Lorenzo Valente to discuss the recent developments in the tokenization of real-world assets, particularly through Tether's new platform, Hadron. The discussion highlights the significance of stablecoins in the global economy and their potential to democratize access to financial products. The second part of the conversation shifts to the rise of new social media platforms like Blue Sky and Threads, exploring their user engagement and the evolving landscape of real-time information sharing. 

If you know ARK, then you probably know about our long-term research projections, like estimating where we will be 5-10 years from now! But just because we are long-term investors, doesn’t mean we don’t have strong views and opinions on breaking news. In fact, we discuss and debate this every day. So now we’re sharing some of these internal discussions with you in our new video series, “The Brainstorm”, a co-production from ARK and Public.com. Tune in every week as we react to the latest in innovation. Here and there we’ll be joined by special guests, but ultimately this is our chance to join the conversation and share ARK’s quick takes on what’s going on in tech today.

Key Points From This Episode:

• Tether's Hadron platform aims to tokenize real-world assets.
