Blockchain is taking a Backseat to AI, but it's still the Same Vehicle

---

Blockchain and crypto were once the biggest hype on the internet, but more recently it seems that Artificial Intelligence is the new cool kid on the block. And even more recent, it's been robotics in combination with AI. At least, that is my perception. Where once every friend and or family member approached me with questions about cryptocurrencies, they know come bearing AI question marks.

You could think that one hype has just overtaken another hype, but I think it's more than that. AI is just another player in the evolution process of the internet, or our digital evolution as a whole. So instead of one overtaking the other, one is here to support the other. Blockchain is not dead but has rather taken a backseat in the same vehicle of digital advancements.

It is very much alive in mainstream financial institutions, political discussions and even as a legal method of payment in countries like El Salvador. Whether you're investing with research, knowledge or money, blockchain is more and more turning out to be a strong long-term player in the game.

Maybe less volatility in hype is also a sign of getting closer to mainstream adoption. It could also mean everything might crash. Which brings us to the only consistent thing with crypto, it can either go up or down, at any moment in time.

What do you think? Is blockchain technology a long term player, or is the hype over?
