AI potential to drive crypto demand remains ‘underappreciated’: BlackRock

Users and companies that rely on machine-driven payments would be the ones to notice this first, because BlackRock is tying AI adoption to demand for stablecoins and programmable payment rails. That means the practical focus shifts toward payment infrastructure for autonomous systems rather than only human users, and the change is framed as immediate interest in those rails rather than a finished rollout.

Compared with a crypto market centered only on trading and store-of-value use cases, this introduces a different set of possible functions for digital assets: paying for compute, tokenized claims, financing, and automated settlement. BlackRock also said payments face fewer technical barriers than tokenized compute, so the easier part to watch is the payment layer, while the compute side remains a separate possibility.
