The market, and why this works now
Emerging technologies like blockchain and artificial intelligence are reshaping investment landscapes, making education in these areas crucial for new investors. A viable first-revenue move is leveraging platforms like Reddit, specifically targeting subreddits focused on investing and technology, to offer introductory courses and attract users to the freemium model.
