These surges follow news of Apple’s latest product release, the iPhone 16, which reportedly includes AI features. Rowan Cheung, founder of the artificial intelligence newsletter The Rundown AI, highlighted the new A18 chip, designed to optimize the performance of generative AI models.
“The next generation of iPhones is built to use AI from the ground up,” Cheung wrote.
The AI focus follows the firm’s Apple Intelligence platform, revealed after a series of generative AI news from industry players such as Google and Open AI. Several features of the iPhone 16 are built on this platform, enabling AI capabilities directly on users’ devices.
This development is bullish for AI crypto coins, as it suggests growing adoption and utilization of artificial intelligence technologies, which could drive further interest in the sector.
The “Inverse Cramer” Effect Moves AI CoinsIn addition to the iPhone 16 news, another bullish catalyst for AI crypto coins is recent remarks from Jim Cramer regarding chip-making giant Nvidia. The famous TV personality and host of CNBC’s Mad Money said he is “waiting for NVIDIA to bottom.”
Cramer’s statement appears to have provided guidance to many AI crypto traders and investors who were uncertain amid the current market conditions, prompting them to take action.
Indeed, the television personality’s reputation as the ‘Inverse Cramer’ precedes him. The concept builds on the idea that whenever Jim Cramer makes negative comments about an asset or investment, it is likely to go up in value and vice versa.
In February 2023, for example, Cramer said Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) stock was a buy at $320. As of March 30, 2023, however, the stock was selling for a penny. Similarly, Binance ex-CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) took Cramer’s March 2023 remarks about not doing business with Binance as an endorsement of the trading platform.

Therefore, Cramer’s Nvidia bottoming remark is taken as a positive signal for the chip-making conglomerate’s stock, NVDA. Taken together, however, the news about Apple’s iPhone 16 and Nvidia inspired optimism for AI crypto coin traders.
