The synthetic internet needs a trust layer

The convergence of AI and crypto is not about decentralized compute or AI tokens. The real opportunity lies in trust infrastructure: systems that combine cryptographic verification, content provenance, persistent identity, and economic accountability to make truth verifiable in a world of infinite synthetic media.

AI has made it trivially cheap to clone voices, generate faces, and fabricate video. Crypto — through primitives like public verification, immutable timestamps, and programmable trust — offers one of the only scalable paths to rebuilding authenticity online. This is why the largest venture funds in both industries are quietly converging on the same problem.
