Johnson was later asked about ethereum and its evolving role in the future. The analyst was quick to explain about ETH, adding that Ethereum being embedded with the AI domain can help strengthen its use cases and dominion. With AI agents gaining steady momentum, these agents may end up using Ethereum as their preferred ledger to transact, bringing a new use case for the blockchain to earn popularity on.
“Ethereum, as I was sort of touching on before, is what goes hand in hand with the sort of transaction layer. If AI agents are going to take over 70 percent of stock trading for us. Or kind of sign up for subscriptions and all this. Ethereum is just naturally placed kind of to be that sort of settlement currency. That the digital world is going to. And these agents are going to transact in.”
