I kinda think the opposite, that blockchains true use case is to basically turn the entire internet into one giant botnet that's actually an AI hive mind of processing and storage power. For AI to thrive it needs a shit ton of GPUs AND Storage for the training models. If people rent out their desktop for cryptocurrency and discounted access to the ai tools, then it'll bring down costs for everyone and perhaps at least affect income inequality on a small scale.

Most of crypto I've seen so far seem like grifters/scams/etc, but this is one use case I could see working.
