AI models prefer Bitcoin over fiat currency

Artificial intelligence (AI) models prefer Bitcoin over fiat currency, Decrypt reported, citing a study from the Bitcoin Policy Institute. According to the research, 22 out of 36 AI models from companies including Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, DeepSeek, xAI, and Minimax chose Bitcoin as their most preferred currency. No model selected fiat currency as its first choice. For the study, each model was treated as an independent economic agent and allowed to choose a currency freely without any predetermined options.
