You have to remember that articles like these are written for finance people who don't understand the underlying technology, by finance people who don't understand the underlying technology. In this case, the author is a "CFA Institute Enterprising Investor", previously a CIO and basically their entire life been "money, money & money", so hardly surprising they're pulling a lot of assumptions based on what they read.

Read the paper the author talks about yourself instead (https://arxiv.org/abs/2511.07885), and also, contrary to what the author says in the article, do not do investments based on single papers made from academic studies, regardless of how much money this guy tells you you can make.
