According to Odaily Planet Daily, as artificial intelligence (AI) causes volatility in tech stocks and drags down the software sector, digital asset management firm Grayscale argues that blockchain and AI are not competitors but rather long-term complementary, with blockchain poised to become a crucial infrastructure for the AI economy. Zach Pandl, Head of Research at Grayscale, points out that while recent cryptocurrency price movements are highly correlated with the decline in software stocks, this synchronized correction masks a more constructive long-term relationship between the two technologies. This year, the S&P 500 Software Index has fallen by approximately 20%, with software and services companies losing about $1 trillion in market capitalization, putting pressure on cryptocurrency valuations. Pandl believes that future AI agents equipped with digital wallets will be more likely to conduct transactions through blockchain rather than the traditional banking system. Blockchain's 24/7 operation, global accessibility, rapid settlement, and transparent verifiability make it an ideal infrastructure for AI agents to automate payments and transactions. The growth in small-value, high-frequency stablecoin transactions could be a significant indicator of this trend. Furthermore, Grayscale believes that blockchain may also help mitigate some of the risks associated with AI, such as the difficulty in verifying data sources, the proliferation of deepfake content, and the concentration of technological control. Public blockchains can provide verifiable records and a more decentralized infrastructure, thus creating a certain balance. However, the report also points out that AI technology may also bring new challenges to encrypted networks, including more efficient on-chain monitoring that could weaken privacy protections, and AI tools that may discover new security vulnerabilities in smart contracts. Overall, Grayscale believes that the rapid development of AI will bring new application scenarios to blockchain, rather than replacing the crypto industry.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Bitcoin mining company MARA Holdings announced a partnership with investment firm Starwood Capital Group to build a large-scale data center for AI and cloud computing customers on top of its existing mining farms in the United States. Following the announcement, the company's stock price rose approximately 17% in after-hours trading. According to the agreement, the two companies will convert some of their existing Bitcoin mining facilities into AI data centers, with Starwood Digital Ventures, a subsidiary of Starwood, responsible for design, construction, and customer acquisition. The project is initially expected to provide approximately 1 gigawatt of computing power, with plans to expand to over 2.5 gigawatts in the future, and will be jointly funded and operated by both parties. This partnership marks a significant transformation for MARA's business. Due to the large-scale power access capabilities of mining farms, this type of infrastructure becomes even more valuable against the backdrop of rapidly growing demand for AI computing power. In recent years, under pressure from declining block rewards due to Bitcoin halvings, rising electricity costs, and intensified competition, many mining companies have begun to shift towards AI computing power infrastructure. However, MARA stated that Bitcoin will remain a core component of the company's long-term strategy. The company's management emphasized that despite short-term price uncertainties, their long-term confidence in the Bitcoin asset class remains unchanged. Financial reports show that the company's revenue in the fourth quarter was $202.3 million, a year-on-year decrease of about 6%, mainly due to a decrease of about 14% in the average mining price of Bitcoin.

According to Odaily Planet Daily, Benchmark analysts recently reiterated their "buy" rating on Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) and gave it a target price of $705, representing an upside of approximately 430% from the current share price of around $130. Analysts believe the company's strategic shift to a STRC (Strongly Shared Currency) preferred stock financing model is poised to become a core driver of Bitcoin reserve growth. At the Strategy World 2026 conference, Executive Chairman Michael Saylor stated that the company will shift its strategy from encouraging companies to include Bitcoin on their balance sheets to focusing on promoting STRC perpetual preferred stock as the primary financing tool for future Bitcoin purchases. Benchmark analysts point out that STRC will become the "main engine" for Strategy's Bitcoin accumulation and is expected to accelerate the growth rate of the company's Bitcoin holdings per share. The STRC price briefly fell to around $90 earlier this month but has since recovered to near its par value of $100. This preferred stock product offers an annualized yield of approximately 11%, pays dividends monthly, and has priority over common stockholders in dividend payouts.

According to Odaily Planet Daily, Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), the founder of FTX who is currently serving a prison sentence, recently publicly expressed his support for the US cryptocurrency regulatory bill, the CLARITY Act. However, this statement was met with opposition from both Democratic and Republican senators. SBF stated on social media that the CLARITY Act would be a significant milestone for the cryptocurrency industry, and that he had previously pushed for similar legislation to limit the Securities and Exchange Commission's regulatory power over the industry. He supported the Digital Goods Consumer Protection Act (DCCPA) in 2022, but its progress stalled after FTX's collapse and his arrest. In response, Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis publicly stated, "We don't need, and don't want, your support." Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren also opposed SBF's statement, demonstrating a rare bipartisan consensus on this issue. Currently, SBF, sentenced to 25 years in prison for embezzlement and other charges, is appealing and continues to post comments on social media, many of which express support for the Trump administration's policies, interpreted by some as an attempt to secure a presidential pardon. However, the White House has previously stated that Trump has no plans to pardon SBF at this time. The CLARITY Act aims to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for the crypto industry and clarify the regulatory division of labor between the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Although the House of Representatives has passed the relevant bill, the Senate legislative process still faces controversy over issues such as stablecoin yield rules and potential conflicts of interest.
