Thread on #6 of #Babai20 undervalued picks, Voyager's $VGX. Voyager is a commission-free crypto broker with 2M users and a $5B AUM.
CEO, Steve, pioneered online trading in the 1990s, and now he's repeating it for cryptos.
A bluechip in the making 💯.

@Ehrls15@investvoyager Today, orders are executed instantaneously but did you know back in the 1990s, you had to call your broker who calls someone at the stock exchange that shouts to execute orders?
Voyager's @Ehrls15 is one of the few people who changed this game forever. $VGX

Now there is a new problem.
Crypto investors can't buy their favorite coins in one place today. So they open accounts at 10+ exchanges.
This is time-consuming, hard, expensive, and also very risky. With ~500 exchanges today, this is only getting worse.

Problem #2: Custody
Status quo:
❌ Typical providers keep 98% of funds in cold storage, making funds highly illiquid and inaccessible during market peaks.

We talked about Voyager being an online crypto broker, but there is so much more. Are you ready?
Wait, Voyager pays 12% interest? How come my bank pays only 0.5%, and my broker pays nothing?
Every bank and brokerage lends your deposit for interest, but they keep 100% of the profit. Voyager returns 80% of profit back to customers like you.

Let get into #3 of #Babai20 undervalued picks $TRIAS, my biggest bag atm. @triaslab is a mammoth in the decentralized computing space with connections to Oxford, Mitsubishi, Peking Univ. It is lighting the torch in bringing "Trust" back to machines. Mega-thread below 👇.
How can a company like @23andMe that does genetic testing using your #DNA be confident that the underlying computing machines are not misusing your private data? Well, Trias is building a decentralized "Trusted" computing layer exactly to address that problem. $TRIAS
@triaslab $TRIAS solves this problem by separating the powers in cloud computing 1) power to execute software ("EXECUTIVE"), 2) power to verify the software implements only intended behaviors ("LEGISLATIVE"), and 3) power to decide who does what and who gets what ("JUDICIAL").
