AI and crypto are not a meme pairing IMO. They are two general-purpose technologies fixing each other’s constraints to some extent. We identified 8 use cases as a map for allocators: 5 where AI needs crypto rails (trading, payments, asset management, private inference, storage) and 3 where crypto captures AI demand (compute, miner power, security). If even a sliver of agentic commerce settles, stores, or computes onchain, the asset class inherits a tailwind most portfolios still don’t price. Read the @21shares framework below.
