Vitalik: Crypto is a secure underlying layer, Crypto+DeAI may save the world
In an interview with Tencents Qianwang, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik expressed his views on the intersection of Crypto and AI industries. He said: The role of Crypto is to make a game. The game you make may have many goals. Trading can be said to be a game. Another example is the prediction market. This year, Polymarket (a prediction market project) has been more successful. Crypto can make a game, use smart contracts to execute the rules of the game more safely, and AI can participate in this game. If only people participate, sometimes the efficiency is not high enough. For example, in the prediction market, I played more in Polymarket this year. I found that the quality of their results was not very high four years ago, and this year it is much higher than four years ago. Why? One of the reasons is that there is more liquidity. Last year it may be 1 million or 10 million US dollars, this year it may be 100 million or 200 million. But I also found that this year, its answers to matters with low liquidity are also relatively good. So, it is very likely that AI is involved now. AIs reaction speed is very fast. It takes 24 hours for one person to do this. I have been on the computer for hours, reading all the news every minute and every second. But an LLM, you let it run, it can do it by itself. I think there will be more examples in the future, maybe in the social field, maybe in other fields. Crypto is a security bottom layer. You can make a game through Crypto to ensure that the rules of the game are fair. The role of AI is to participate. In addition, he mentioned: If you want to see how Crypto can save the world? It cant be just Crypto, but Crypto + something else. So Crypto + what? The first one may be Crypto + Decentralized AI; the second one may be Crypto + a technology that can replace AI.
Finally, he believes: If issuing a coin and setting up an exchange is the only thing we do, then this industry is a failure. Before this year, transaction fees were too high, some important technologies were not mature, account security issues were not resolved, privacy issues were not resolved, and many problems were not resolved. Therefore, before this year, our industry did not have enough technology to make applications that ordinary people can participate in. One of the reasons why the only successful application is DeFi is because DeFi can make more money. This year, we finally started to solve these problems. This year is the best time to make meaningful applications.

Andrew Kang: Grass may achieve 9-figure revenue next year
Andrew Kang, partner of Mechanism Capital, wrote on the X platform that the latest developments in artificial intelligence have made data one of the most valuable commodities in the world, and Grass uses crypto incentives to create data pipelines that most AI companies cannot use. At the current growth rate, they seem to be on track to achieve 9-digit revenue next year, or even break through billions of dollars. Andrew Kang added that he has studied many projects that combine encryption and artificial intelligence, but unfortunately, most of them are not investable, and Grass is one of the top legitimate foundation projects that have emerged in this cycle.

NDV Lianchuang: Cheems consensus is not strong enough to reach the $200-300 million range
Christian 2022.eth, co-founder of NDV, posted on the X platform that he was shocked to see the news of Cheems listing. He asked the operation team of Cheems Twitter, and they were completely unaware of the news of the listing. After analyzing the reasons for the plunge, it was found that the rat warehouse addresses that entered the market with a surge on the 19th continued to raise the price, and the robots on bsc generated millions of dollars of selling pressure in the short term until the bottom was caught. I will not maliciously speculate whether these large orders bought later are rat warehouses with insider information, or just speculative purchases based on predictions, but in the final analysis, the consensus of $Cheems is not strong enough to reach the range of 200-300 million US dollars. It is supported by unrealistic expectations of listing (spot), and a sharp drop is inevitable when expectations are not met.

Adam Back: World Hyperbitcoinization is Coming
Adam Back, a crypto-punk legend and co-founder of Bitcoin infrastructure development company Blockstream, said that MicroStrategy continues to increase its holdings of BTC, the world is rapidly re-pricing Bitcoin, and hyperbitcoinization is nigh. Some people have doubts about MicroStrategys approach. But in fact, when something important is mispriced, it is arbitraged. The MicroStrategy strategy accelerates arbitrage of mispricing, so yes, it can be expanded, this is not a problem, but an arbitrage of the fact that the entire fiat currency world is mispriced.
