CZ: AI cannot combat inflation, Bitcoin has long-term value storage properties

Odaily Planet Daily News CZ stated on the X platform that AI and Bitcoin serve different functions: AI drives productivity improvements, while Bitcoin is used to combat inflation and protect wealth. CZ stated that AI cannot protect users from inflation, but Bitcoin can. The market often views AI and Bitcoin as two major热门 investment themes, but their natures are fundamentally different. AI is a technology that enhances corporate efficiency and economic productivity, whereas Bitcoin is a digital asset with a fixed supply.

CZ pointed out that the AI industry is developing, with global companies continuously investing billions of dollars in AI software, data centers, chips, and other infrastructure, driving transformations in sectors such as healthcare, finance, and manufacturing. However, AI companies can issue more shares and expand through financing, and their investment value still depends on business performance and market competition. In contrast, Bitcoin's total supply is fixed at 21 million coins, meaning holders possess a scarce asset that cannot be diluted. CZ believes this characteristic gives Bitcoin long-term value storage properties and provides protection when the purchasing power of fiat currency declines due to inflation.

CZ has previously also stated that the AI craze may attract some funds that would have originally flowed into the Bitcoin market. As AI companies like OpenAI and Anthropic gain more capital attention, some investors may sell other assets to allocate to AI-related investments. However, CZ believes that AI and Bitcoin are not in a competitive relationship and should be viewed as complementary assets: AI drives technological progress and production efficiency, while Bitcoin offers a way to store value unaffected by supply expansion.
