The price of Bitcoin has broken $100,000! The Bitcoin white paper was released in 2008, the Bitcoin network started running in 2009, and now, on December 5, 2024, after fifteen years, Bitcoin has crossed the $100,000 mark. As I said before, if I hadn't just played around with my wallet and had taken mining seriously in 2012, I would have retired by now.
But what I want to say is not this. What I want to say is: the most important career choice in life is to choose the right track! For today's young people, in the next twenty years, the track you should choose is: AI + Web3. AI is fundamentally changing the way human society produces; Web3 is reshaping the way wealth is distributed in human society.
I was very lucky when I was young because I chose the right track. I entered the internet industry in 2000 and started my own website business in 2003. But the era of the internet is over; there are no more opportunities in that field.
Why do young people need to choose AI for their careers? Because AI is changing the game! Even if you don't understand programming or design, you can now quickly develop excellent apps using AI. The Cat Light App soared to the top of the App Store's paid download rankings; in fact, the creator doesn't know how to program but has developed several apps already. And what about the enterprise side? Right now, everyone's buzzing about digital humans and intelligent agent platforms, and the demand is extremely high.
Why do young people need to choose Web3 to accumulate wealth? Because Web3 is revolutionizing the global financial system. The price of Bitcoin has already broken $100,000, but this is just a temporary goal; sooner or later, Bitcoin will replace gold as the reserve currency.
If you have ever made an international transfer, you must have had a very painful experience: I once had an international transfer that took twelve days to arrive, and the fees were astonishing. But today, in the field of cryptocurrency, transfers arrive in just a few seconds, and the fee is only $1.
This is just for transfers, but what about trading? Binance's trading volume has surpassed that of Nasdaq, becoming the largest exchange in the world by trading volume.
What about saving money? Today, Binance's real-time savings interest rate is 21%, yes, you heard it right! 21%.
Of course, exchanges have already launched payment cards, allowing you to spend cryptocurrency directly in your daily life.
In fact, most of the old money has not yet entered the Web3 space, after all, older people tend to be conservative in their views. And this is precisely the opportunity for young people.
Remember, choice is greater than effort. This is the best time because the revolution of AI and Web3 has just begun!
