What happens when BSV becomes more profitable to mine than BTC? Seriously, think about that question for a minute. BTC and BSV both use SHA-256 proof of work. Miners aren’t charities; they’re businesses, and businesses follow profit.

Right now, BTC has an enormous advantage because its block reward is worth far more in dollars. But there’s a clock running. The block subsidy keeps getting cut in half—again and again and again. Eventually, transaction fees have to carry more of the load.

And this is where things get interesting. BTC is built around scarce block space and relatively few transactions. BSV is pursuing almost the exact opposite economic model: massive numbers of extremely cheap transactions.

Now throw AI into the equation. A human might make a handful of financial transactions in a day. An AI agent could potentially make thousands—paying for APIs, buying and selling data, licensing content, purchasing compute, paying another AI, settling contracts, recording proofs, paying machines and receiving micropayments. Now multiply that by a million AI agents. Then 100 million. Then billions.

Suddenly, a transaction worth a fraction of a cent doesn’t look insignificant anymore, because miners don’t live on the value of one transaction. They live on total revenue.

Imagine BSV reaches the point where billions of tiny machine transactions collectively generate more mining revenue per unit of hash than BTC. What does a rational SHA-256 miner do? He points the machines toward the money. Hash moves to BSV. Security increases.

Greater security attracts more serious economic activity. More activity creates more transactions. More transactions create more fees. More fees attract more hash.
You potentially get a feedback loop:

AI → transactions → fees → miners → hashpower → security → adoption → more transactions.

Here’s the question I don’t hear enough people asking: What if the future battle between BTC and BSV isn’t ultimately decided by investors choosing which coin they like? What if it’s decided by machines choosing which blockchain is economically useful?

AI doesn’t care about the narrative. It doesn’t care what Crypto Twitter thinks. It doesn’t care which ticker has the bigger market cap. It needs to know something much simpler: Can I transact globally, at enormous scale, for almost nothing?

If AI starts answering that question with BSV, the miners may eventually answer it too.
