At this year's Bitcoin conference, Vance gave a very interesting speech:

"Cryptocurrency is a right-wing technology, while artificial intelligence is a left-wing technology."

At first glance, it sounds a bit abrupt, but if you think about it carefully, it does make some sense.

Bitcoin advocates decentralization, personal freedom, and resistance to censorship, attracting a large group of somewhat conservative tech idealists.
AI tends to concentrate power, emphasize efficiency, and manage boundaries, making it naturally more favored by centralized systems.

This is certainly a rough classification, but it reveals the cultural tendencies behind the technology:
On one side is the decentralized "freedom engine," and on the other side is the centralized "computing power scepter."

Wang Si also mentioned that the next stage of Bitcoin is to become a strategic asset for the United States.
In his eyes, Bitcoin is not just a "financial innovation," but a shield against the trend of centralization in the digital age.

The division of this technical route is worth our long-term attention.
Especially when AI and Crypto no longer run parallel to each other but start to collide head-on.

The choice of future technology may be a choice of values.
