Nvidia’s Mining Boosts Market Value by $277 Billion
Nvidia, the crypto mining company, has added $277 billion in market value, making it the largest ever gain in a single day.
“Nvidia $NVDA adds $277 billion in market value today, the biggest single-day gain in history.”
Despite this achievement not being from cryptocurrency mining, it seems to come from the company’s contribution to the growing Artificial Intelligence (AI) sector.
Nvidia is leading and most important in developing chips for AI technology, with its graphics processors being essential as servers for these AI models.
In the fourth quarter of 2023, Nvidia recorded revenue of $22.1 billion, an increase of almost 250%. Since 2022, Nvidia’s shares have exceeded a market cap value of over $1.7 trillion.

The shares of Nvidia Corp (NVDA) surged +16.4% to close at $785.38 on Thursday. Over the last month, NVDA has increased by +31.15%, and over the last year by +226%.
Operators exchanged Nvidia shares for a value of $65 billion on Thursday, equivalent to almost one fifth of all trades of S&P 500 stocks.
This milestone does not depend on cryptocurrency mining but is due to Nvidia’s production of graphics cards for computers and chips for Artificial Intelligence.
Nvidia is now the third most valuable company in the US stock market, surpassing Google and Amazon and trailing only Apple and Microsoft.
