Here is what Horizon Kinetics has to say about CACI International Inc (NYSE:CACI) in its Q3 2023 investor letter:
“Companies involved in packaging, managing, and transacting with digital assets (i.e., securities exchanges and asset managers) are a focus of the Fund, but those operations are not entirely necessary to qualify a company as being a blockchain beneficiary. CACI International (CACI), a defense electronics contractor, interestingly enough, is becoming involved in blockchain technology from an entirely different entry point: data analysis, and the kind that can come with barriers to entry (95% of its revenues come from the U.S. government).
There is a treasure trove of data available through public, distributed ledgers. And there is a lot of value in knowing who supplied the funds, where else have they been spent, and what fiat currency onramps or offramps are connected to the transaction. These are questions that can typically be answered with enough detective work. Even if specific parties cannot be identified, trends and narratives can be analyzed just by the flow of activity, since all the transaction data of every single token, from the time it was created, resides on the blockchain.”
