According to Brad Freeman (@StockMarketNerd), Waymo, owned by Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), is actively pushing for expansion into New York City as hardware costs drop and more cities adopt autonomous vehicle technology (Source: Twitter, June 18, 2025). The ongoing expansion into highways and airports indicates accelerated commercial deployment, which could boost GOOGL's stock and increase institutional interest in AI-driven crypto projects. The reduction in hardware costs for autonomous vehicles may also fuel demand for blockchain-powered mobility and payment platforms, potentially impacting related tokens.
