Metaplanet CEO: As AI Drives Replication Costs Toward Zero, Bitcoin's Absolute Scarcity Will Become More Valuable

Odaily Planet Daily News Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich stated that his long-term bullish outlook on Bitcoin is not based on price trends, but rather on AI transforming the concept of scarcity in the economy. As AI significantly reduces the production and replication costs of software, content, analytics, and other products, future value may increasingly flow to assets whose supply cannot be expanded through technology.

Gerovich noted that Bitcoin's 21 million supply cap is enforced by network rules and cannot be increased by improvements in production efficiency or intelligence levels. Meanwhile, as an asset that cannot be replicated or diluted and can be settled 24/7 globally, Bitcoin's scarcity attributes will become even more pronounced in a context where AI is driving more goods and services toward abundance.
