Over the last day, AI-related cryptocurrency tokens have surged, beating big digital assets like ether (ETH-USD) and bitcoin (BTC-USD). According to Coingecko data, the market capitalization of artificial intelligence tokens has surged by more than 14%, currently standing at $29.9bn (£23.55bn).
After Nvidia (NVDA) surpassed all other companies in the world in value, Wall Street investors began buying artificial intelligence chip stocks, which coincided with the surge.
Top 5 AI-related tokens based on market capitalization rally
The top five AI cryptocurrency tokens by market capitalization, according to Coingecko, have all increased in value during the last day. The biggest increases were recorded by Fetch.ai (FET-USD), Bittensor (TAO) at +5%, Render (RNDR-USD) at +4%, NEAR Protocol (NEAR-USD) at +5%, and Internet Computer (ICP-USD) at +6%.
SingularityNET (AGIX-USD) and Ocean Protocol (OCEAN-USD), two more AI-related cryptocurrency tokens that are somewhat outside of the top five by market capitalization, had increases of over 26% and 23%, respectively.
Big cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, ether, and solana have either traded flat or down, in contrast to the growth in the AI-related token category. After retreating from its previous highs reached in mid-May, the price of bitcoin has increased little during the last day to $65,800.
According to Coingecko data, solana (SOL-USD) decreased 2.7% within the same period while other cryptocurrency tokens, like ether, climbed 1.7%.
Nvidia is currently the most valuable firm in the world
Chip Manufacturer Nvidia’s share price reached an all-time high on Tuesday, making it the most valuable corporation in the world according to lists.
Its graphics processing units (GPUs), which are built to handle artificial intelligence tasks in data centers, are the reason for its amazing rise.
Nvidia’s market capitalization has surpassed $3.3 trillion, almost doubling in value since the start of 2024. With a 3% gain for the day, Nvidia’s shares ended the Wednesday session at $135.58. The market capitalization of the chipmakers has now eclipsed that of Amazon (AMZN), Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), and Apple.
What are tokens connected to AI?
A subclass of cryptocurrencies called “AI-related tokens” are made to take advantage of artificial intelligence technologies in their own ecosystems. These tokens are usually used to fuel AI-integrated platforms and applications, which improve functionality, speed up decision-making, and automate a variety of tasks.
AI-related tokens offer distinct use cases that set them apart from more conventional cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and ether. These tokens can be linked to projects that concentrate on machine learning, data analysis, and decentralized AI networks.
For instance, SingularityNET wants to establish a decentralized AI marketplace where algorithms can be bought and traded, while Fetch.ai uses AI to develop decentralized autonomous agents for a range of businesses.
These tokens give holders access to cutting-edge AI-driven services as well as governance rights and transaction facilitation within their own platforms. AI-related tokens are a promising segment of the cryptocurrency market that is drawing more and more interest from developers and investors as the integration of AI technology grows.
