RENDER Network burns surge 279% in 2025 amid rising AI demand, price lags despite strong fundamentals.

RENDER Network, a decentralized GPU computing platform, burned 530,171 tokens from January to September 2025, marking a 278.9% increase from the same period in 2024. This surge reflects growing real-world usage driven by AI workloads and new partnerships with NVIDIA, Stability AI, and others. Despite this, RENDER's token price remains 85-90% below its March 2024 peak, attracting investor interest due to the gap between fundamentals and price. Mid-term price forecasts for 2026 range from $8.00 to $19.27, supported by network expansion and AI adoption, though competition and revenue challenges persist.
