Michael Saylor: AI Will Want Bitcoin
Michael Saylor just connected two of the biggest ideas shaping our future artificial intelligence and Bitcoin. In his latest reflection, he described Bitcoin as digital energy, the purest form of value transfer that intelligent systems will one day rely on.
His point is simple but powerful.
As AI evolves, it will need a monetary network that doesn’t depend on people, politics, or trust. Something incorruptible. Something self-verifying. Something alive inside code itself.
That’s where Bitcoin comes in. Its proof of work consensus isn’t just about mining, it’s about anchoring truth to energy.
A system that can’t be edited, bribed, or reset. For autonomous intelligence, that’s not a choice, it’s a necessity.
Saylor sees Bitcoin as the backbone of a digital civilization where computation meets value. AI represents unstoppable logic, Bitcoin represents unbreakable trust. Together they form a new kind of economic gravity where intelligence runs on energy and energy runs on Bitcoin.
