"I think this is a generational opportunity to go about build."
Santiago Roel Santos on the AI opportunity he calls generational:
"I tell my team: we can build massive businesses by acquiring smaller organizations, bringing them under one roof, and making them way more efficient."
"Give me something that takes 80 hours to produce. It might now take two hours, and you're still billing the exact same amount to the end customer."
"Similar to crypto, there's a massive opportunity to increase throughput and lower costs across most industries. It's incredibly exciting."

Santiago Santos of Inversion shares his perspective on the real benefactors of crypto.
"The CEO of Western Union is here because he realizes onchain settlement can save his firm billions on the float."
"That is the real Institutional FOMO."
@santiagoroel says we’ve transitioned from a retail-driven "buy the coin" market to an institutional "fix the P&L" market.
The pressure is coming from a "basket of public companies" that are already using these rails to outperform the S&P, forcing the old guard to either innovate or be liquidated.

The disconnect between crypto adoption and token prices is at an ATH.
Despite the correction, most tokens are still overvalued and won’t recover to ATHs. Hyperliquid is the exception.
The alpha is in crypto-enabled equities. Founder-led companies like Figure, Nubank, and Robinhood will outperform.

Santiago R. Santos, Founder & CEO of Inversion:
“I think the biggest challenge of crypto has been over-indexing on the technology and not so much in go-to-market.”
“...the biggest challenge and opportunity is how can we make crypto invisible to the end user, but then really, really seeing the benefit of it.”

Crypto needs real GDP, not just speculation. @santiagoroel (Founder, @inversion_cap) returns to TOKEN2049 Dubai on 29-30 April.
He's acquiring operating businesses and embedding crypto rails for payments, efficiency, and UX. This is what mainstream adoption actually looks like.

What if 2% of your monthly churn isn't really churn, it's just bad payment rails? Plug in your numbers: inversioncap.com/labs/calcul…
@inversion_cap
I obsess about payment infrastructure because it is a drag that shouldn't be there, and yet most accept it as a cost of doing business. Whether you're in SaaS, subscriptions, or any recurring business, payment infrastructure is a friction tax that eats into margins and unit economics. And it's about to get worse. AI is breaking the pricing model that card rails were built around.
Programmatic spend requires programmatic money, and credit cards are not that. I think this goes away. It is the single most impactful lever you can pull to improve the business. I built a calculator because it's easier to show how corrosive the current payment infrastructure is to SaaS than to explain it.

Why Most Layer 1s Won’t Justify Their Valuations in 2026 (And Where the Real Upside Is) w/ @santiagoroel
Crypto has built massive infrastructure.
But ~90% of valuations sit at Layer 1s while <20% of revenue does.
That gap matters a lot heading into 2026.

Always great to hear the latest from my friend @santiagoroel, founder of @inversion_cap. I love his maniacal focus on driving efficiencies for companies by integrating them on his blockchain “highway.”
Every business eventually adopted the internet. Blockchain is next. ⏳
In this interview with Chris Perkins, Santiago Roel Santos explains why every business, over the next 25 years, will use blockchain the same way they adopted the internet... and this generational shift is already underway. 🌐
