Google has just partnered with Coinbase to accept cryptocurrency payment for its on-cloud services. That is a long-term strategic move for both of them. It’s also a good move for Google in its war for on-cloud services with Amazon web services, as Coinbase will take some of its services to Google’s cloud.

When you analyze the global presentation of their cloud services, you realize that they talked more about AI than anything else.

is telling us that the technological future goes through Blockchain + AI.

So humbly, from our small competitive space of innovative investment funds, I believe that in Belobaba we are betting well on both disruptions.

We are just where we want to be.

Yours in crypto.
