E87 • Aug 18, 2024 • 13 mins

In this episode, we kick things off with an introduction to episode eighty-seven. We then explore Coinbase's AI initiatives and the potential of AI in the financial sector. The discussion moves to Franklin Templeton's recent filing for Bitcoin and Ether ETFs. We delve into the trend of Bitcoin miners shifting towards AI and high-performance computing (HPC) sectors. VanEck's response to financial challenges following the Bitcoin halving is also covered. We wrap up the episode with closing remarks and a thank you to our listeners.

Key Points

  • Coinbase has launched an artificial intelligence accelerator grant program to support projects that combine AI with cryptocurrency wallets, offering $15,000 to five selected initiatives.
  • Franklin Templeton has filed for a new ETF that would hold both Bitcoin and Ether, reflecting the growing interest and confidence in cryptocurrency as a viable asset class for traditional financial markets.
  • VanEck's report suggests that Bitcoin miners could significantly boost their annual revenue by partially transitioning their energy capacity to the artificial intelligence and high-performance computing sectors by 2027.
