## Quote — verbatim

> Especially with crypto now we're entering this incredible bull phase... I predict mid 2025 is when the decentralized AI is going to shine, because we have a lot of companies... that figured out how to do verifiable machine learning... I think that's going to explode and I think Akash being the foundation layer for this new era is going to be an incredible opportunity for Akash to really shine.
