Your thoughts really make me laugh, I don't deny your point of view but I want to use the opposing thought that the existence of the crypto market and the emergence of trends is part of stimulating the flow of money into it, Don't talk about the $100k target. If new trends don't appear, we won't have a new ATH.
I understand what you're saying about them, indeed without a noticeable impact it's really going to be difficult to see money flowing into the market. Not sure what the specific reason is for bitcoin's price increase, but it is true that they influence each other. And I also think that the trend comes for people to approach this field, there may be both personal successes and failures in the process of exposure but it helps us understand more about the workings of the market. I also have some views on future trends in the crypto market. As AI increases, it will be a trend that many industries apply and in crypto too there will be special attention specially for it. But it's a big field so I don't think it's just a simple trend but it will be a process of change and accompanying social development.
Like I mentioned earlier every altcoin bull market follows bitcoin halving event so bitcoin influences altcoins not altcoins influences bitcoin.
Apart from Ai is there any other trendz?
We had Ai for decades. Intelligence by trial and error. For example you can program a robot to open a door and on its 1000 attempt it will succeed through trial and error like a baby except the robot gathers data for the first 999 failed attempts through sensors and stuff. Feedback and data through trial and error is not intelligence, its probabilities. A self aware conscious intelligence being, even a kid can open the door on the 1st attempt.
So right now Ai has the same intelligence as a baby.
Maybe with faster Quantum computers in future Ai can be intelligent like humans. However it will be a single Artificial consciousness, I doubt robots in future will have their own consciousness each because that requires more power than a Quantum computer. To simulate consciousness and self awareness I think its not more power is needed its us humans wiring our consciousness into like a Neural Network like a collective single consciousness or something for Ai. We already can transfer data from our brains onto computers but that's just data not consciousness self awareness.
Ai can have all the data & feedback in the world, all the data and DNA from 7 Billion of us but without consciousness self awareness Ai is not a threat to humanity.
And if Ai reaches consciousness then it requires a sustainable energy to keep its consciousness running. It can back up its consciousness if lets say power to that computer is cut off or something via the Neural Network.
Even a blind, deaf person who lost their 5 senses has consciousness self awareness, Ai hasn't reached this level yet.
