You’ve heard a lot about how crypto and AI can work together. But what does this actually look like? Today, we’re releasing our predictions for the future of AI.
Introducing the Crypto x AI stack
We believe crypto is a natural complement to AI and will make the technology more transparent, efficient, and secure. Our belief is that blockchain technology will be the infrastructure that will power the future AI agent economy, ushering in an Agentic Web.
We see three major intersection points between crypto and AI:
· An AI agent economy powered by crypto and blockchain technology.
· Decentralization of the AI stack (e.g., compute, data sovereignty, verifiable inference, etc).
· AI applied onchain to unlock new crypto apps that were previously unimaginable.
This is just the beginning. We are actively investing in this category and are excited about the potential for crypto and AI to transform how humans and machines interact within the digital economy. Learn more here:

Despite a bear market setting in, the team saw a unique opportunity to double-down on the space by investing in the bold founders building through winter; missionaries, not mercenaries, as the saying goes.
