Render token surges 40.8% amid AI infrastructure demand

The Render (RENDER) token experienced a significant rally, climbing 40.8% over a 30-day period to reach $1.95 by late September 2026. This growth is attributed to a combination of network upgrades, such as the July implementation of RNP-023 which integrated Salad’s decentralized GPU subnet, and a broader market rotation into artificial intelligence (AI) and decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) tokens.

As the token approaches the $2 resistance level, market analysts are monitoring whether it can break through this critical barrier. The rally coincides with a broader surge in the AI crypto sector, which saw substantial capital inflows and a significant increase in total market capitalization during the third quarter. On-chain data also indicates rising activity, with trading volume reaching levels not seen earlier in the quarter.
