AI Token Demand Could Surge 24x by 2030, Grayscale Says

Grayscale’s Zach Pandl says AI token consumption could increase 24-fold by 2030 as lower costs expand adoption and usage. AI agents may consume five to 50 times more tokens than standard chatbot interactions, increasing demand for inference computing. Data center capacity, electricity and GPU shortages could constrain AI expansion, potentially supporting higher prices for scarce computing infrastructure. AI token consumption could increase 24-fold by 2030 as cheaper models and autonomous agents expand usage, according to Grayscale Head of Research Zach Pandl. However, the physical infrastructure needed to run these systems remains constrained.
