It visually expands on Mark Cuban's quote by showcasing the specific projects—$CHIP, $ATH, $IO, $TAO, $ONDO, $AKT, $RENDER—that already represent the "chips as an asset class" thesis, with Bittensor ($TAO) notably the largest at $2.22B market cap. > > "Mark Cuban says chips as an asset class will be the new crypto. 9 tokens already own that trade → $CHIP : owns the GPU → $ATH : rents the GPU out → $IO : rents the GPU out → $TAO : buys the compute → $ONDO : owns the chipmaker → $AKT : rents the GPU out → $RENDER :" ### Post #3 by @akashalpha_ > **Author:** Akash Alpha ([@akashalpha_](https://x.com/akashalpha_)) > **Metrics:** 67 likes · 8 retweets · 4 comments · 1.4K views > **Posted:** 2026-08-15T15:04:26+00:00 > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/akashalpha_/status/2088642981150507084](https://x.com/akashalpha_/status/2088642981150507084) > **Visual Note:** A computer screen showing the Akash Homenode dashboard with status 'Active,' displaying GPU (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090, 100%, 79°C), CPU (20 cores, 1%), RAM (21% of 15.0 GB), Storage (13% of 1874 GB), and Network (w1p129s0) usage statistics. > > "Very cool. Got my first job on @akashnet Homenode. Finally got approved and earning $AKT. You can tell when your node got a job because the fans kick up and the heat starts.
