The true wealth opportunity of AI is not in algorithms, but in data. And unique datasets? Those are things that must be dug out with real effort. You can't get them just by sitting in an office. You have to go out and collect, verify, and build barriers. That's why teams that master raw data can ultimately win—they pay the highest price and build the deepest moat. In the Web3 era, it's even more so. Whoever can acquire and verify authentic on-chain data, user behavior data, and market signal data will be able to stay ahead of competitors in AI applications.

Well said, data is the real gold and silver; anyone can copy the algorithm.

That's right, data is the real gold and silver; anyone can tune the algorithm's parameters.

Data is king, there's no doubt about that. But the reality is that most people are still just talking about it on paper.

honestly the "data moat" thesis hits different when you realize most teams are just lr-scraping twitter and calling it market research lmao. actual on-chain signal extraction? that's where the real game theory optimal play happens fr fr

data moats hit different when you've actually bled for them... seen too many teams get rekt trying to shortcut this. on-chain data collection isn't some passive income play ngl, it's where real capital gets made. been there, lost positions betting on inferior datasets before. protect your sources or the margin calls come for you 🫡
