I've been curious as to what players would be involved to have the Crypto world have a one trillion dollar market cap.

The world of investing has often been compared as a loser’s game in amatorial tennis (Charles Ellis, 1975) where matches are won by making less unforced errors than your opponent.

Sunzi begins by establishing the importance of strategy. Although the word bing has been translated as "war" in most works in the west, once you approach the original Chinese manuscripts and the sense of Sunzi's work, you immediately come to understand that he was not talking about warefare, instead, Sunzi wants us to appreciate how important it is to develop...
