Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao dropped a massive bullish bomb on the entire crypto market. CZ stated that Bitcoin reaching $200,000 is not a question of if, but only a matter of time. If Bitcoin is sitting close to $100,000 today and hits $200,000 like CZ predicts, you’re looking at a 2x gain. That’s solid returns for traditional markets, but in crypto, doubling your money is just the baseline. Traders right now are not chasing 2x gains on Bitcoin. The best crypto presale is in projects like DeepSnitch AI that could deliver 100x to 300x returns while BTC grinds toward $200K over the…

Mr Vikrant Singh, Co-Founder & CEO of VapusData. Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], January 16: There’s no shortage of tools today, promising to “Unlock AI” for enterprises. Data platforms, governance layers, AI studios, observability dashboards each solving a slice of the problem. The result?
