The convergence between cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence isn't just speculation—it's inevitable. Here's why: AI systems increasingly require efficient, decentralized payment mechanisms to operate autonomously. As AI agents multiply and interact across networks, they need a trustless medium of exchange that doesn't rely on centralized intermediaries. That's where crypto steps in. We're already seeing the early signals. The infrastructure is building itself. Whether through Bitcoin, emerging smart contract platforms, or other digital assets, this integration will reshape how value flows in the digital economy. The next wave of innovation sits right at the intersection of these two forces.

AI and crypto were meant to go together all along, and now finally someone has explained it thoroughly.

ngl ai+crypto this logic sounds like it's just trying to hype the concept... but on the other hand, a self-operating system indeed needs a way to pay its own bills, and it seems like there's no way around that.

Huh? It's the same old story... I feel like I'm hearing the same thing over and over again, but each time it cuts even deeper.

Honestly, I've heard this argument so many times before, but there is some truth to it... I trust the part about AI needing trustless payments, but ultimately, the implementation depends on who can first successfully run the scenario.
