As a result of this, institutional players are tightening their focus on bitcoin and ether, treating the bulk of remaining tokens as fleeting and mostly \u201cnonsense\u201d. \u201cThe majority of that is nonesense\u201d, said Mitchnick himself.<\/p>\n<p>Token turnover in the top ranks has been \u201cpretty ferocious\u201d, with only Bitcoin and Ethereum sustaining long\u2011term relevance, while the majority of circulating tokens lack staying power. Right now, BTC and ETH sit in different but complementary \u201cmonetary universes\u201d: Bitcoin as a savings\u2011style hedge and Ethereum as productive infrastructure for on\u2011chain activity and tokenization.<\/p>\n<p>What This Means For The Industry<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Mitchnick sees this consolidation as a natural evolution and not a failure, with AI acting as the structural catalyst that will actually need crypto rails in the real economy. He believes there is an organic alignment between what he calls \u201ccomputer-native money\u201d and \u201ccomputer-native data and intelligence\u201d:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cAI agents are very unlikely to use, you know, Fedwire and SWIFT (\u2026) What is crypto? Crypto is computer-native money\u2026 AI is computer-native data and intelligence. And so there\u2019s a natural symbiosis there\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Under Mitchnick\u2019s perspective, crypto is seen less as a speculative trade and more as core infrastructure. A growing cohort of Bitcoin miners is already reallocating capacity to AI workloads, attracted by more predictable income streams and surging demand for compute. Publicly listed firms like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/hut-8-shares-jump-ex-bitcoin-miner-signs-7-billion-ai-data-center-lease-2025-12-17\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Hut 8 (HUT)<\/a>, Core Scientific (CORZ) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/iren-and-cleanspark-signal-mining-evolution-subbd-solves-new-needs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Iren (IREN)<\/a> are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/bitcoin-miners-pivot-ai-data-centers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">converting data centers or signing hosting agreements focused on AI<\/a> and high\u2011performance computing. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/bitcoin-miners-ai-shift-new-overhang\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Other miners are floating comparable strategies<\/a>, even as traditional mining remains at the heart of their operations.<\/p>\n<p>If BlackRock\u2019s thesis holds, the real long\u2011term bet is on AI plus the core crypto stack (Bitcoin, Ethereum and tokenization rails), while long\u2011tail token churn turns even more fleeting and purely speculative. In an AI\u2011led market, the lasting upside is likely to accrue to the assets that autonomous agents and institutional plumbing actually rely on, not to whatever \u201cAI coin\u201d narrative happens to be trending next.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-671495 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTCUSD_2026-03-25_13-35-23.png?w=855&amp;resize=855%2C660\" alt=\"Bitcoin, BTC, BTCUSD\" width=\"855\" height=\"660\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTCUSD_2026-03-25_13-35-23.png?w=2168 2168w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTCUSD_2026-03-25_13-35-23.png?w=544 544w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTCUSD_2026-03-25_13-35-23.png?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTCUSD_2026-03-25_13-35-23.png?w=855 855w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTCUSD_2026-03-25_13-35-23.png?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTCUSD_2026-03-25_13-35-23.png?w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTCUSD_2026-03-25_13-35-23.png?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTCUSD_2026-03-25_13-35-23.png?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 855px) 100vw, 855px\"><\/p>\n<p>Cover image from Perplexity, BTCUSD chart from Tradingview<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BlackRock\u2019s Robbie Mitchnick believes AI to be a bigger long-term force for crypto than the launching of new tokens.
