Artificial intelligence-related cryptocurrencies were the market’s biggest gainers on Wednesday as Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA) shattered its fourth-quarter revenue record.
What happened: KAITO, the native token of the AI-powered InfoFi network, soared over 40% to become the most successful cryptocurrency in the last 24 hours.
IP, the native token of Layer-1 blockchain Story, rallied over 19% to generate the second-best returns.
Launched barely two weeks ago, the coin has accumulated a market capitalization of over $1 billion and has been up a whopping 569% since its debut.
The blockchain project helps creators register, license, and monetize their intellectual property assets in an AI-driven world.
AI16Z, the token associated with ai16z—a venture capital firm led by Al agents—gained 15% on the day.
The overall market valuation of AI tokens rose by 1.8% in the last 24 hours, according to CoinGecko.
Why It Matters: The spike came after Nvidia reported record fourth-quarter and full-year fiscal revenue after Wednesday’s market close. The quarterly revenue and earnings exceeded analysts' expectations.
That said, shares of the chip-making giant were down 1,49% in after-hours trading, indicating that investors' lofty expectations were not met.
The surge defied the broader downturn in the market, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) slipping below $83,000 for the first time in 15 weeks.
Price Action: Shares of NVDA closed 3.67% higher at $131.28 during Wednesday's regular session, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
