Meanwhile, US stocks opened higher on Monday as the week began on a better note, with investor focus likely to be on Nvidia earnings and the Fed meeting at the Jackson Hole symposium.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Ahead of that, <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/tag\/hsbc\/\">HSBC<\/a> has hiked the price target for Nvidia shares, up from $600 to $780. Can this outlook be replicated across <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/tag\/ai\/\">AI<\/a>-powered crypto tokens, like Akash Network?<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Strong demand for Nvidia\u2019s AI GPUs<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A note by HSBC analyst Frank Lee reaffirmed the buy rating for the NVIDIA shares, with the bank\u2019s outlook pegged on earnings potential driven by an expected boom in AI. There\u2019s a lot of room for the company to grow in 2024 and 2025, Lee noted.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201c<em>We continue to see strong demand that continues to outpace supply, especially with regard to AI GPU shipments. We believe this will continue to be the case going into FY25e especially as the market has better visibility over US CSP cloud 2024e CAPEX expectations by late 4Q23<\/em>,\u201d the analyst <a href=\"https:\/\/www.streetinsider.com\/AI\/NVIDIA+%28NVDA%29+PT+Raised+to+%24780+at+HSBC%2C+Still+room+for+upside\/22066873.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">explained<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The company\u2019s shares popped more than 4% in early trading to $451.53 as of 10:35 am ET. The HSBC price target gave it an 80% or so upside premarket.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Akash Network to benefit from AI boom?<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">AI cryptocurrencies have in the past exploded on strong Nvidia earnings and revenue projections based on expected demand for artificial intelligence. As Nvidia\u2019s chips powering AI gains massive traction, analysts say crypto projects such as Akash Network could benefit from the resulting pivot.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Projects such as Render (RNDR), <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/fetch-ai\/\">Fetch.ai<\/a> (FET) and Cortex (CTXC) could see significant traction. Today, Akash Network, a decentralised marketplace for cloud resources is outperforming the rest of AI tokens. The native token AKT is up more than 6% in the past 24 hours and 148% in the past two weeks to trade at $1.48.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Aiming to deliver the world\u2019s first decentralised AI Supercloud, Akash has seen several AI models successfully deployed on its Akash GPU Testnet. Nvidia GPUs have been tested on the network as projects seek to leverage AI in dApps.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">While other factors could impact AKT price down the road, it appears marrying blockchain technology and AI could be a powerful driver of adoption. Revolutionising the decentralised physical infrastructure networks (dePINs) will likely underpin AKT price performance.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">AKT price reached $1.77 on August 20, 2023, which is some distance off its all-time high of $8.07 reached in April 2021.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/akash-network-price-soars-as-hsbc-hikes-nvidia-price-target\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : CoinJournal: Latest Bitcoin, Ethereum &amp; Crypto News ) Akash Network price rose 6% to $1.48 at the time of writing and was 150% up in two weeks.
