Crypto KOL Ansem said in a conversation with Market Bubble and Banks that culture, attention, and collective belief could become more valuable as AI keeps expanding and intelligence turns into a commodity. He argued that if quantum risk becomes a material threat to Bitcoin, Zcash may have a path to a valuation closer to BTC because of its privacy features and a "better store of value" narrative. Ansem added that he personally holds some spot ZEC, though he is not actively long. He also said Murad is directionally right about the premium attached to cultural and belief-based assets, but called it "very, very unlikely" that pure meme coins would ever surpass Bitcoin in market capitalization. In his view, if the future brings a huge number of AI agents and an oversupply of intelligence, the assets that command a premium will be tied to individuals, culture, and what people genuinely believe in.

On Oct. 9, crypto KOL Ansem said in a conversation with Market Bubble and Banks that culture, attention, and collective belief will become more valuable as AI continues to expand and intelligence becomes commoditized.

He said that if quantum risk turns into a material threat to Bitcoin, Zcash (ZEC) could have a path to a valuation closer to BTC, driven by its privacy properties and a "better store of value" narrative.

Ansem also said he holds some spot ZEC, but is not actively long.

On meme coins, he said Murad is directionally correct in arguing that cultural and belief-based assets can command a premium, but added that it is "very, very unlikely" for pure meme coins to surpass Bitcoin in market capitalization.

In his view, if the future includes a massive number of AI agents and an oversupply of intelligence, the assets that will earn a premium are individuals, culture, and assets that people genuinely believe in.
