AI-themed cryptocurrencies have taken center stage following Nvidia's earnings outperformance.

What Happened: According to CoinGecko data, AI-related cryptocurrencies are worth $17.2 billion, a 5.4% increase over the past 24 hours.

Bittensor TAO/USD, Render RNDR/USD and Fetch.ai FET/USD are the top three coins with single-day gains of 5.1%, 19.3%, and 16.2%, respectively.

Crypto analytics firm Santiment highlighted data of other recent outperformers: “Among top price risers over the past week, $AGI (+182%), $ALI(+138%), and $AGIX (+122%) have stood out.”

Why It Matters: The recent surge in AI-themed cryptocurrencies tied into the record results posted by Nvidia.

A crypto trader, Crypto Curb, compared the current AI craze to the Metaverse craze in the 2021 bull market.

He saw the current AI run as "turbo-charged" and expects "tradfi fuel as boomer AI stocks also take off.”

What’s Next: Social media analysts saw further upside for AI coins.

One trader expected Render to go higher on "bullish momentum:"
