The 20 Millionth Bitcoin: How Scarcity is Fueling the AI Economy

from The AI Econ Dive · host Wilson x The NotebookLM Team

We just hit a massive mathematical milestone: the 20 millionth Bitcoin has been mined. But what does absolute scarcity mean for the future of finance? In this deep dive, we unpack how the resulting profit squeeze is forcing Bitcoin miners to pivot, transforming their physical infrastructure into high-performance data centers for AI giants. We also explore the rise of autonomous AI agents using crypto rails to execute trades, how Zero-Knowledge Machine Learning (ZKML) is fighting deepfake fraud, and why the legacy banking system must adapt to "atomic settlement" or risk extinction. Tune in to understand the cascading effects of a programmable, 24/7 machine economy.Support this show: https://cmksw2k7t04du01x1hqsc5ehm.firstory.io/join Leave a comment and share your thoughts: Powered by Firstory Hosting
