The first prediction posits that Bitcoin will emerge as the primary currency for artificial intelligence. Hayes argues that AI requires a censorship-resistant blockchain-backed currency, and only Bitcoin possesses such qualities. He supports his claim by highlighting Bitcoin's superior attributes, stating that it is intrinsically linked to the cost of electricity, which is the lifeblood of any AI.

Very triple-digit Bitcoin
Building upon this notion, Hayes delves into his second prediction, contemplating the potential price surge of BTC should it become the dominant currency of the AI economy. Drawing upon various indicators, including the size of the AI economy, the daily GDP value for 2022, Bitcoin's capitalization to daily transaction value multiple, the velocity of payments and the total supply of BTC, Hayes calculates an optimistic scenario where the price of Bitcoin could skyrocket to an astounding $760,000 per coin.

However, Hayes' predictions and in-depth analysis will undoubtedly contribute to the ongoing discourse surrounding the future of cryptocurrencies and their potential convergence with artificial intelligence.
