Let’s get into this week’s ideas ⤵️
Big Idea
Crypto market intelligence hub for digital asset investors
🛑 The Problem: Crypto is noisy. Enthusiasts and investors need a trusted source for news and analysis, but most crypto media is too shallow.
💡 The Idea: What if there were a place crypto investors could go, one they could trust to help them make the best investment decision?

⚙️ How it Works: Ad-supported model with sponsored content. If you can build software on top of this, too, you’d win on both the product and distribution fronts.
❓ Why it Works: Crypto is cyclical, with large booms and busts. But the hardcore crypto fans are extremely passionate and sticky users.
⚔️ The Competition: Big players in the space include Coindesk, Decrypt, and Cointelegraph.
💵 The Numbers: $8.2M TTM revenue | $5.2M TTM profit | $14M asking
⚖️ The Verdict:

Build, Don’t Buy
AI-powered video editor for YouTube Shorts creators
💵 The Numbers: $540K TTM revenue | $407K TTM profit | $750K asking
The idea is a tool that builds faceless videos for YouTube Shorts (and other short-form video platforms). I think we’ll be seeing more and more AI-generated content, and I think no one is doing it particularly well (yet). This niche has a lot of space for a new player to come in and deliver a high-quality product that doesn’t just produce AI slop. Maybe that could be you.
