Barry Silbert & Bittensor Steal the Show: How AI’s Next Frontier Ignited Proof of Talk 2025 in Paris

Paris became the epicenter of crypto’s AI revolution as Barry Silbert and Bittensor took center stage at Proof of Talk 2025. The buzz? Decentralized intelligence isn’t just coming—it’s already rewriting the rules.

Silbert’s keynote cut through the hype, framing AI as crypto’s killer app—while Wall Street bankers scrambled to pretend they’d read the whitepaper. Meanwhile, Bittensor’s protocol demo bypassed traditional machine learning bottlenecks, proving decentralized nets could outperform legacy AI—no $10M GPU clusters required.

The afterparties saw more alpha leaks than a hedge fund’s Signal group. VCs lurked near espresso bars, whispering about ‘the new web3 stack’ between sips of overpriced Bordeaux. One thing’s clear: the machines are learning faster than your portfolio manager.
