In conversation with Venturebeat video game reporter Dean Takahashi, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said he believes “we’re right on the cusp” of a blockchain-based augmented reality metaverse.
In the interview, published on Saturday, the graphics card chief described a future that is not too distant from the NFT space right now: “The art that you have is a digital art. You own it using NFT. You’ll display that beautiful art, that’s one of a kind, and it’s completely digital.”
Huang envisioned a seamless transition between the physical world of our perishable possessions and the virtual world of our digital assets. “You’ll have our glasses on, or your phone. You can see that it’s sitting right there, perfectly lit, and it belongs to you. We’ll see this overlay, a metaverse overlay if you will, into our physical world.”
Huang’s idea of a ‘metaverse overlay’ is already here—to an extent. This March, teenage NFT artist FEWOCiOUS auctioned a pair of hand-inked shoes as an NFT both IRL and as an augmented reality pair, raising $3.1 million in seven minutes.

Similarly, rapper MF Doom’s last known creative project was a set of AR MF Doom masks. These NFTs can be displayed in virtual worlds, like in art galleries on Decentraland.
Nvidia is no stranger to digital currencies. Driven by the popularity of their graphics drivers in crypto mining operations, Nvidia released in February a graphics card for Ethereum miners: The Nvidia CMP (Cryptocurrency Mining Processor).
In late Spring, the company announced that it was cutting the hash power of three of its most popular graphics cards to keep gamers happy.
At the end of May, Nvidia had made $155 million from its CMP cards. Huang said in May, “CMP yields better, and producing those doesn’t take away from the supply of GeForce. So it protects supply for the gamers."
When the singularity arrives, it’ll be powered by Nvidia.
France-based public investment bank Bpifrance announced Thursday plans to invest $27 million (€25 million) directly into tokens and decentralized technologies in an effort to “strengthen the French blockchain ecosystem.” Announced during a blockchain-focused event in Paris, the bank’s investment seeks to accelerate its “digital asset investment strategy” by bolstering French crypto startups and assisting the local venture capital players in Web3. “We are convinced of the growing importance that...
Tether revealed Thursday it is investing in a pair of firms unrelated to the crypto industry, continuing an investment spree that has only intensified since the company reported record profits earlier this year. The El Salvador-based company snapped up 49,596,510 shares of Latin American-focused agricultural firm Adecoagro, growing its stake in the business to 70%, according to an SEC filing published Thursday. "Our investment aligns with Tether's broader strategy to back infrastructure, techn...
GameStop’s announcement on Wednesday that it would sell convertible debt to buy Bitcoin and bolster its balance sheet seems contrary to its past approach to digital assets. In recent years, the video game retailer debuted an ill-fated NFT platform and sold large quantities of IMX, the native token of Ethereum layer-2 network Immutable X. GameStop now appears to be following the path of Bitcoin hodler Strategy, saying it will offer $1.3 billion worth of convertible senior notes and potentially u...
