AI + Web3 Convergence: How AI Brings Blockchain Adoption Back to the Innovation Curve
AI + Web3 Convergence: how AI brings blockchain adoption back to the innovation curve. Based on X Space #2 with ChainAware co-founders Martin and Tarmo (Credit Suisse veterans, CFA, PhD). Core thesis: Web3 is now behind Web2 on the innovation curve — mass marketing at 0.1% conversion vs Web2’s 10-30% with intention-based targeting. AML systems assume reversible transactions (wrong for blockchain). Only 5/25 top DeFi lending protocols have original code. Uniswap copied Bancor. AI cannot be copy-pasted. Blockchain proof-of-work data ($70/user WhatsApp equivalent — free on-chain) enables 1:1 targeting. New user journey: BNB chain → Telegram group → rug pull → leaves forever. 20-30 new PancakeSwap pools/hour, 90% rug pull patterns. Clean contracts still rug pull — trace the funding chain.
