Artificial intelligence is now being used as a market oracle by investors to model scenarios, price ranges, and sector-level shifts across global asset classes. In 2025, AI adoption accelerated across crypto markets and asset management companies, with funds and analysts using large language models to interpret macro signals, onchain data, and regulatory developments. Predictions for 2026 suggest a maturing market shaped by institutional capital, infrastructure growth, and sharper regulations.
