Michael Heinrich’s Affection for AI Cryptocurrencies: Goat, Turbo & Aethir – Excluding TAO

Michael Heinrich, the co-founder of 0G Labs, has some strong opinions on AI cryptocurrency tokens. While many traders are speculating on which tokens will succeed next, Heinrich believes that the best ones are yet to come. In a recent interview with Hall of Flame, he expressed his enthusiasm for three particular tokens that are already on the market: Goat, Turbo, and Aethir.
Heinrich finds Goat and Turbo, which are AI meme experiments, to be particularly interesting to watch. He also sees potential in Aethir, comparing it to an Airbnb for GPU computing. However, he is not as intrigued by Bittensor (TAO), the second-largest AI token by market capitalization. While he acknowledges that TAO may perform well, he believes that it doesn’t address the core issue of providing true AI on the blockchain.
Born in East Berlin and raised in San Francisco, Heinrich has been involved in the crypto space since 2013. In 2017, during the first major bull market, he was already running Bitcoin mining operations. His interest in AI led him to co-found 0G Labs with Fan Long and Thomas Yao in 2023, focusing on merging AI and blockchain technologies.
Heinrich attributes his following of over 250,000 on X to his honesty and willingness to challenge mainstream opinions. He encourages authenticity and embracing mistakes, rather than relying on PR agencies to curate content. Heinrich’s content on AI and Web3 often delves into the ethical implications of AI and advocates for AI that serves human needs.
Additionally, Heinrich enjoys sharing human interest stories that evoke emotions and shares predictions for the future of AI and decentralized finance. He predicts advancements in decentralized training and AI alignment research in the coming year. Overall, Heinrich’s approach to content creation is rooted in authenticity and a passion for exploring the intersection of AI and blockchain technologies.
