Artificial intelligence will lead to minimal personnel needs — in the future, companies will consist of one person. This statement was made by Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev at Bitcoin 2025 in Las Vegas.
He referred to Satoshi Nakamoto — the anonymous creator of Bitcoin, noting that the leading cryptocurrency was created by one person.
"I think there will be more companies consisting of one individual, and one can imagine that they will be tokenized and start trading on blockchains — like other assets. Essentially, you will be able to invest in a person or in the economic activity of a project managed by one individual," said the CEO of Robinhood.
Bitcoin acts as the personal brand of Satoshi Nakamoto with technological backing, the expert added.
Tenev believes that artificial intelligence allows for the creation of an increasing amount of value while using fewer resources.
Recall that in May it became known about the development of the Robinhood blockchain platform for trading US securities in the European market.
Earlier, Aptos Labs CEO Avery Ching stated that AI agents need access to assets on the blockchain — cryptocurrencies, tokens, and tokenized instruments like real estate.
