“The Real Alpha Is in the Picks and Shovels — Not the Gold”

Everyone’s chasing the next $PEPE

or $FET.

But the biggest winners in every gold rush?

Not the miners.

It’s the ones selling picks, shovels, and infrastructure.

In crypto, that means protocols powering AI, compute, and real-world asset tokenization.

Think:

$AKT — decentralized cloud compute

$RWA tokens bringing trillions on-chain

Oracle networks like $API3 or $PYTH

Data layers like $AR or $NEAR

These are the quiet builders — and when the next hype cycle comes, the entire industry will need them.

Don't just look for hype. Look for what hype depends on.

True 100x plays are hiding behind utility and silence.
