Will Bitcoin become the natural language of value for AI?
Just this year, Tether launched “Tether AI” with native Bitcoin payment options—AI agents now settle invoices and buy data using Bitcoin or Lightning, optimizing for speed and cost. Jack Dorsey’s Block is rolling out Lightning-enabled payments for its Square platform, letting bots and businesses instantly pay in BTC without new hardware. 37% of active crypto users say AI and digital payments are driving adoption, with more AI systems now transacting onchain than ever before. With “ghost in the machine” agents trading sats in real time and companies like Rezolve AI adding massive Bitcoin treasuries to fuel autonomous commerce, it looks more likely than ever that Bitcoin will become the economic engine behind our future AI economy.
