Bitcoin could see renewed momentum if artificial intelligence reshapes the global economy and influences central banks toward easier monetary policy, according to research from NYDIG.
Greg Cipolaro, the firm’s research lead, argues that AI may emerge as a “general-purpose technology” comparable to past transformative innovations. Its broader impact on labor markets, productivity and liquidity conditions could become a defining macro driver for digital assets such as Bitcoin, which was recently trading near $66,000.
Cipolaro notes that if AI-led growth coincides with expanding liquidity and stable real interest rates, the environment could be supportive for Bitcoin. However, stronger economic growth that pushes real yields higher and reduces the need for policy accommodation may create short-term pressure on risk assets.
Labor Market Disruption Could Boost Liquidity
The research suggests that AI-related job displacement or volatility could prompt fiscal expansion or looser monetary conditions. Such a liquidity impulse has historically benefited scarce assets, including Bitcoin.
Goldman Sachs’ claimed in a report in August that widespread AI adoption could displace up to 7% of the US workforce, but would also likely create new job opportunities.
While the adjustment may be uneven, NYDIG maintains that technological shifts historically lead to integration rather than long-term economic decline. For Bitcoin investors, the trajectory of monetary policy in an AI-driven economy may prove decisive.
