📈 Analysts anticipate Bitcoin’s potential surge to $100,000, fueled by institutional demand and favorable macroeconomic conditions. ⚠️ However, excessive optimism could trigger short-term corrections, making risk management essential.

Beyond the large-cap assets, many crypto investors remain focused on blockchain-based artificial intelligence (AI) or decentralized AI (deAI). For example, according to data provider Kaito, AI-related projects accounted for about one-third of crypto industry “mindshare” (social media attention) over the last three months (Exhibit 5). The Bittensor ecosystem in particular has been expanding, driving outperformance of its TAO token. Bittensor now has over 90 active subnets, and subnet tokens have an aggregate circulating market capitalization of $580 million. Other notable crypto/AI developments in April included the first successful decentralized training of a 32bn parameter model by Prime Intellect (a collaboration between Flock.io and Alibaba Cloud), and Nous Research raising $50mm in fundraising led by Paradigm to support decentralized model training on Solana.

Bitcoin (BTC) has been on a slow recovery since mid-March. Moves to the upside are limited, and at present, involve multiple unsuccessful attempts to breach local resistance levels before a decisive break ultimately occurs.
