Web3 technical
"strategic initiatives across Web3, infrastructure, and digital asset markets"
An approach to the internet that uses decentralized technologies (like blockchains and smart contracts) to give users control over data, identity and digital assets instead of relying on a single company. For investors it matters because it enables new business models—token-based ownership, marketplaces and governance structures—but also brings higher volatility, novel revenue streams and regulatory uncertainty, so investment outcomes can be very different from traditional tech.
AI infrastructure technical
"Currenc is building a unique platform at the intersection of fintech, AI infrastructure, and digital assets"
AI infrastructure consists of the hardware, software, and systems needed to develop, run, and support artificial intelligence applications. Think of it as the foundation and tools that enable AI to process large amounts of data quickly and accurately, similar to how a strong foundation supports a building. For investors, AI infrastructure is important because it underpins advancements in technology that can drive new business opportunities and competitive advantages.
