**AI Crypto Tokens Surge Ahead of Nvidia's Q2 Earnings Report**

Artificial intelligence-based crypto assets have been on a tear over the past week, fueled by anticipation for Nvidia's upcoming Q2 earnings report. Key AI tokens like Near Protocol (NEAR), Artificial Superintelligence Alliance (FET), Bittensor (TAO), and Render (RENDER) have outperformed the broader crypto market.

- **Near Protocol**: NEAR surged 35%, hitting a four-week high of $5.20 on Aug. 25.

- **Artificial Superintelligence Alliance**: FET skyrocketed nearly 70%, reaching $1.39 on Aug. 26.

- **Bittensor**: TAO gained 26%, topping $350 on Aug. 26.

- **Render**: RENDER climbed 40%, reaching $6.45 on Aug. 26.

Onchain analytics platform Lookonchain noted unusual whale activity in FET, indicating significant market interest.

The surge comes as markets await Nvidia's Q2 results, described by analysts as the "most important tech earnings in years." Nvidia's stock has soared 180% over the past 12 months, driven by demand for AI infrastructure. The report is set to be released on Aug. 28.
