Bitcoin's core protocol couldn't just be threated by AI. I mean it's decentralized, and so it can't just alter it's consensus as obviously if someone attempted that, it will be recognized right away.

Maybe government can use AI to crack down the foot prints or track everything in blockchain. But as what we have said, there are already companies doing it and so far nothing big has been crack by blockchain analysis companies.

In turn, maybe someone could developed a AI, a better train to be used for scalping or trading.
