Gold Sets the Bar, But Bitcoin Can Catch Up. Here’s How: Bits + Bips

Unchained

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The institutionalization of Bitcoin has temporarily sacrificed its digital gold status for liquidity, creating a massive opportunity for those who can stomach the volatility before the next decoupling.
  2. Monitor Japanese government bond yields as a leading indicator for global risk tolerance.
  3. Bitcoin is currently a liquidity sponge, not a bunker. Expect it to follow the Trump Put and tech earnings until its volatility profile mirrors a currency rather than a speculative stock.

The Intersection of AI and Crypto: What Worked, What Didn’t, and What’s Next | Roundup

Bell Curve

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The market is moving from the "Compute Layer" to the "Agentic Layer." Owning the GPU is less valuable than owning the agent that controls the wallet.
  2. Build agent-first interfaces. Stop designing for human clicks and start structuring your data so an LLM can execute transactions on your behalf.
  3. The next 12 months belong to on-chain agents that handle treasury ops and commerce. The "decentralized GPU" narrative is dead. The "AI Agent with a bank account" narrative is just beginning.
