In his view, anyone with a phone can own part of the new financial infrastructure without going through the usual gatekeepers.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe can own the infrastructure layer for the first time in history,\u201d<\/em> Pal said.<\/p>\n<p>His latest $100 trillion forecast rests heavily on AI. Pal said AI adoption is moving at a pace he compared to <em>\u201cMetcalfe\u2019s law squared,\u201d<\/em> with machines already producing more words each year than humans. He also warned that AI systems are moving toward <em>\u201capex intelligence,\u201d<\/em> a stage that could reshape work, finance and everyday services.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\"> <strong>177% up to 5BTC + 77 <strong> Free Spins<\/strong>!<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>New players only.

AI agents need instant settlement, small automated payments and open access. Traditional banking rails were not built for that kind of machine-to-machine activity at scale. Public blockchains, by contrast, can support fast, programmable and borderless transactions.<\/p>\n<p>Asked what could stop crypto adoption, Pal gave a blunt answer: <em>\u201cNothing stops this train.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Pal has also argued that all banks will eventually run on Ethereum, seeing the network as long-term financial infrastructure rather than just another asset. For investors, he recommends Bitcoin as a pure store-of-value position and a basket of major layer 1 networks for exposure to the coordination layer around AI and crypto.<\/p>\n<p>He also pushed back against chasing every rotation. In earlier comments, Pal said capital often rotates between crypto assets without changing the longer-term trend. His preference remains core holdings over short-term bets.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/crypto\/raoul-pal-says-ai-and-blockchain-could-drive-crypto-toward-100t\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Crypto News &#8211; iGaming.org ) Real Vision CEO Raoul Pal is back with a big crypto call, arguing that AI and blockchain are starting to merge into one infrastructure layer for the global economy.
