One way to think about the case for crypto x AI is it’s a bet on horizontal v vertical scaling. Big tech has mastered vertical - hoard compute, data ,and buy out competitors and vertically integrate them - form a monopoly. Crypto horizontally scales - high variance in contributions, massive consumer compute, data, etc. Bitcoin as the largest compute network shows horizontal can outcompete vertical. But the contributions are relatively deterministic (does this nonce hash). When things are deterministic it’s easier to scale infinitely horizontally: determinism —> easy verifiability —> permissionless —> anyone can contribute. That’s how you get anyone with a GPU to contribute compute. The hard part about AI is a lot of useful work in the real world that needs AI is not so cleanly verifiable. So we have two options to make this scale:

AI cannot scale or function as a financial instrument withOUT crypto, there is no other alternative
