Bitcoin × AI for business # AI makes everything abundant. Bitcoin stays scarce. Your company is about to run on AI. The open question is which memory it runs on, which money, and who holds the keys. Network Effect helps leaders of SMEs and mid-sized companies through this double shift, from Rennes, France. - [Let's talk about your project](https://networkeffect.fr/en/contact/) - [Read the thesis](https://networkeffect.fr/en/bitcoin-ai/) > Back in 2023, we wrote that machines would need a wallet. Today, AI agents buy compute, data and services. They need money native to the internet, settled in a second, even for a cent. It already exists. Bitcoin × AI ## Three convergences. Why Bitcoin and AI meet inside your company. ### The base · Scarcity **What AI cannot copy.** AI prints text, code, images and advice at zero cost. Value moves to what cannot be printed: your context, your customers' trust, and a money whose supply will never change. - [Bitcoin in your treasury](https://networkeffect.fr/en/services/payments-treasury/) ### The network · Agents **Money for machines.** An AI agent has no bank account and no card. It buys data, APIs and compute, and gets paid for its work. It needs a rail that settles in a second, with no intermediary, down to the cent: Lightning. - [A wallet for machines](https://networkeffect.fr/en/resources/#wallet-for-machines) ### The company · Sovereignty **Keep the keys.** An AI that doesn't know your company misses the point.
