AI stocks set a record on Friday, while the biggest AI crypto token has gone mostly sideways.

Decrypt reported that Nvidia reached a record market value of about $5.7 trillion. Meanwhile, $TAO trades near $302.91, down about 0.6% over 24 hours, per CoinGecko, after slipping to around $295 on Saturday.

My view: crypto AI tokens and AI equities share a story, but they do not share investors. Nvidia earns real revenue from chip sales, while decentralized AI networks are still proving their economics. The question is whether crypto AI can show usage that justifies its valuations.
