Artificial intelligence-based cryptocurrencies slumped after AI powerhouse Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA) reported its second-quarter earnings Wednesday.

What happened: The AI-based collaborative token, FET, and TAO, the native token of the decentralized AI platform, Bittensor, shed 7% in the last 24 hours.

Similarly, RENDER, underpinning the Render Network, tumbled 4%. The total market cap of AI cryptocurrency tokens contracted by 3% to $23.29 billion over the past 24 hours, according to CoinGecko.

The chip-making giant's second-quarter earnings and revenue beat Wall Street estimates. But despite the better-than-expected performance, shares of the chip-making giant were down nearly 7% in after-hours trading, suggesting that investors' lofty expectations were not met.
