Jensen Huang: Bitcoin stores energy, AI a universal currency

  • Jensen Huang said at CES that Bitcoin converts excess energy into a portable form of value.
  • Huang argued intelligence and AI models could serve as a more universal medium for moving compressed value.
  • His remarks echo similar views from Elon Musk and Michael Saylor, including Musk’s post and Saylor’s MIT keynote.
  • Bitcoin traded near $92,600 at the time of reporting, and retail sentiment remained highly bullish on social platforms.
  • NVIDIA remains central to AI infrastructure, and its stock saw modest after-hours gains following the CES appearance.

Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, said at the Consumer Electronics Show on Monday that Bitcoin turns surplus energy into a transferable form of value. He explained the network effectively stores excess energy as a new kind of currency that can be moved across locations.

Huang described the process in detail, saying “Essentially, what Bitcoin is doing is taking excess energy and storing it into a new form. It’s called currency. And you take that currency, and you take it wherever you like.” He added, “You took energy from one place, and now you’ve transported it everywhere.”

The CEO placed Bitcoin’s energy framing alongside broader industry views. His comments mirror Elon Musk’s remark that Bitcoin is “based on energy,” as shown in Musk’s post, and the description of Bitcoin as “digital energy” used by Michael Saylor in his MIT keynote.

Huang also contrasted Bitcoin with Artificial Intelligence, suggesting models could compress and carry value more broadly. He said, “You find places with excess energy. Go put a data center there. Transfer that energy, compress it into an AI model, and take that model all over the place to use it.”

At the time of reporting, Bitcoin traded around $92,600, down about 1.2% in 24 hours, while chatter and retail sentiment on social platforms remained high. Nvidia was a top trending ticker, with shares gaining modestly after hours following the CES remarks.
