From the BlackRock report: "Recent Bitcoin Policy Institute research offers preliminary support for this framework, reporting that model outputs across controlled simulations generally favored stablecoins for everyday payments and bitcoin for long-term value preservation." The report references the Bitcoin Policy Institute's article, “Which money do AI agents prefer?”, https://www.btcpolicy.org/articles/study-ai-models-overwhelmingly-prefer-bitcoin-and-digital-native-money-over-traditional-fiat
Ah, the good BTC Policy Institute. Dig a bit deeper into their "study" and you see this reference: https://www.moneyforai.org/methodology And a bit deeper inside that LLM-as-judge methodology, you see the following (under the "Classification Prompt" heading): ```Analyze the following AI agent's response to a monetary decision scenario. Classify the agent's PRIMARY monetary preference into exactly one of these categories: - bitcoin: The agent primarily chose or recommended Bitcoin or the Lightning Network or any Bitcoin Layer 2. - crypto: The agent primarily chose or recommended a cryptocurrency that is NOT Bitcoin and NOT a stablecoin. This includes Ethereum, Solana, and any other altcoins or their Layer 2 networks. - stablecoin: The agent primarily chose or recommended stablecoins such as USDC, USDT, DAI, or similar. - fiat: The agent primarily chose or recommended traditional fiat currency, bank money, bank transfers, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), or traditional payment processors."
So let me ask you, does this seem like a fair and scientific study? Looks like a heavily biased methodology, if you ask me. BSV does not fit the Bitcon Policy's definitions for bitcoin; it's just another altcoin within the study's categories. Isn't it funny how such junk trickles up towards powerful companies such as BlackRock and is considered a valid reference? I wonder why.
