"History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes." Desktop web -> mobile internet 2000: Sharp J-SH04 as the first camera phone in Japan 2007: First iPhone by Apple 2013: 4G LTE 2019: 5G Today: Satellite phones & edge AI Gas cars -> EV 1890: Mirrson Electric Wasgon as the first electric car 2008: First Tesla roadster 2012: First Tesla model S 2020: Tesla became the most valuable car maker by market cap Today: EVs make up 20%+ of global car sales True shifts in tech don’t happen overnight Crypto and AI are the two most disruptive techs today. AI boosts efficiency across nearly every aspect of life, while crypto redefines ownership and financial freedom. I've been asked many times - how do AI and crypto converge? To me, AI can be centralized and decentralized as long as it delivers the performance, efficiency, scalability, and privacy that users expect. But when it comes to how value is created and distributed in AI systems, that’s where crypto makes a difference. Crypto introduces a new kind of economy that allows for clear ownership, fair attribution & value exchange among all stakeholders. The vision of Sahara started two years ago with data labeling. We saw the need for crypto as micropayment in this niche economy, and also token as powerful incentive to drive better data quality. It’s clear the world is moving rapidly toward an AI-driven future, one where AI becomes embedded in how we work, create, learn, and connect. Today marks a new milestone for Sahara - SIWA. In this new chapter, Sahara will build the tools, infrastructure, and resources needed to accelerate that future. We want to be the driving force behind this paradigm shift, and bring crypto and AI together. Sahara is your platform, a place where data contributors, model developers, and consumers all have a role to play and a stake to own. You will find your place with us and grow alongside this journey towards a decentralized AI economy. Excited for what's ahead. AI和crypto未來可期，我們一起攜手並進，更好的掌握AI，使用AI，和創新AI
