Founder & CEO, Halfacre Research
We built Halfacre Research so everyday investors can take back their sovereignty.
Our story
Our story starts in 1996, when Matthew made his first investment through a PepsiCo dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP). He fell in love with investing right away and never stopped.
His father, who is part of our team, taught him the basics: inflation, dollar-cost averaging, asset classes, debt, and how they all work together. Matthew turned those lessons into a lifelong habit of deep research.
Since 1996, we've watched the dot-com boom and the rise of companies and assets like social media, smartphones, Amazon, Airbnb, Netflix, Microsoft, Google, Apple, Nvidia, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and XRP, along with many others. Along the way, we became tech-focused investors with an eye for products and systems that can scale worldwide.
That eye led us to Bitcoin in 2014. Both instinct and research told us it was harder money than any government currency.
Bitcoin also led to a bigger realization: everyday people would eventually run their own retirement with an AI research partner, and much of the world wanted to leave the old banking system behind.
Matthew has always been an entrepreneur and an investor. He has owned a construction company and a martial arts training facility, but investing has always been his true passion. He's also a self-taught systems architect, and he brings a willingness to learn, an open mind, and open ears.
Today, our team includes Matthew, his father, 34 AI bots, and a few trusted subcontractors. Together, we research every decision we make at a world-class level.
Give our platform a chance. It's free to start.
Where you can read my work
Every two weeks I write The New School, a newsletter on markets and systematic investing. In 2025 I published The 2050 Whitepaper, a 25-year projection in 42 sections that draws on the work of more than 30 thought leaders. If you want to see how I think before you trust me with your questions, those are the best places to start.
