Curve founder: Crypto is key to the future of finance

Curve (CRV) founder Michael Egorov said on X that while pessimism is spreading in the crypto market due to the surge in AI stocks, the industry should focus on its intrinsic values of guaranteeing individual sovereignty and providing an uninterrupted financial network. He stated that cryptocurrency is not a temporary trend or a toy, arguing that market fundamentals are stronger than ever, as large financial institutions are actively adopting crypto systems that operate without intermediaries. In contrast, Egorov suggested that AI technology could face a period of structural stagnation with declining quality and rising costs. He emphasized that crypto and AI are not competitors but independent future technologies, and that cryptocurrency will become the core infrastructure driving the future of finance, regardless of short-term market price movements.
