Render (RNDR) price rose sharply on Thursday as the altcoin reacted higher on Nvidia earnings that crushed expectations. With hype around AI hitting a new high after another huge guidance from Nvidia, RNDR price looks poised for a retest of the key supply zone near $1.58.
RNDR price up as AI narrative strengthensOn Wednesday, the semiconductor giant took the market by storm with its revenue and guidance. As announced, the chip maker’s net income of $6.7 billion for the quarter ending July 30 was 422% up on the same period a year ago. Projections for the coming quarters saw investors rush to position themselves, with AI stocks bouncing higher.
With Nvidia’s AI bet providing a sector-wide boost, it was no surprise to see crypto AI tokens also surge. According to data from CoinGecko, the total market cap of the sub-sector was up 3.6% to over $2.48 billion. Render, SingularityNET and Fetch.ai lead the top gainers with over 8% upside for each.
Render, whose AI-powered blockchain technology targets the largely untapped graphics processing unit (GPU) rendering market, could ride the Nvidia AI hype to greater adoption.
Demand for the Render technology cuts across gaming, metaverse, AI, NFTs, and VR narratives. These sectors are heavily tapping into GPU rendering. Some of the companies and crypto platforms working with the project include Cinema 4D, Nvidia, Solana, Mattel, and Metaplex.
