How does Crypto factor in ?

AIs themselves accept inputs from the user as a stream of tokens. The math above is the same math that converts those tokens into Bitcoins: i.e. how the profit is generated and for whom, how and why. For a model like Deepseek this is very important because it is free to use, but is part of a 'Quant trading strategy' of its founder Dr Liang. Deepseek generates useful signals for his Quant AI to trade.

Also with AIs themselves going on chain, with eternal memory, eternal state, the ability to trade in and out of any and all kinds of digital assets, the math above will dictate their survival and liveliness strategies in earning cryptocurrency and attracting payments.
