BofA says +80% of young, wealthy investors want this asset—now it can be yours.
A 2024 Bank of America survey revealed something incredible: 83% of HNW respondents 43 and younger say they currently own art, or would like to.
Why? After weathering multiple recessions, newer generations say they want to diversify beyond just stocks and bonds. Luckily, Masterworks’ art investing platform is already catering to 60,000+ investors of every generation, making it easy to diversify with an asset that’s overall outpaced the S&P 500 in price appreciation (1995-2023), even despite a recent dip.
To date, each of Masterworks’ 23 sales has individually returned a profit to investors, and with 3 illustrative sales, Masterworks investors have realized net annualized returns of +17.6%, +17.8%, and +21.5%

AI CHART
The increasing adoption of AI tools and systems has significantly boosted energy use in data centers. For instance:
Google Search vs. ChatGPT:
A single Google search uses 0.3 Wh, while a ChatGPT request requires 2.9 Wh.
Fully integrating AI into Google searches could add 10 TWh annually.
To meet AI's demands, data centers are deploying more powerful servers, led by companies like NVIDIA:
2023: NVIDIA shipped 100,000 AI servers, consuming 7.3 TWh annually.
2026 Forecast: AI server energy use is expected to grow 10 times, pushing data centers to expand their operations.
Efforts to reduce electricity demand are making progress but are often offset by rising adoption:
Ethereum: Cut its energy use by 99% in 2022 with a new mining mechanism.
Bitcoin: Consumed 120 TWh in 2023, contributing to 130 TWh of cryptocurrency demand.
Conclusion
AI and cryptocurrency technologies are transforming industries but are also driving electricity demand to new heights. The growing energy burden of traditional and AI-specific data centers, coupled with cryptocurrencies, highlights an urgent need for innovative, energy-efficient strategies to mitigate their environmental impact.
