We're a much more complex ecology - even BTC wasn't decentralized at 1st - it was 1 guy for 3 years. bittensor is 5 years in & still building" Great point. $TAO

· 2026-04-18T15:20:24+00:00$TAO has a supply problem... not in quantity, but in clarity. Everyone talks about emissions and incentives. Almost no one talks about who actually captures the value.

· 2026-04-18T11:59:54+00:00Non-millionaires are buying shitcoins and criticising Jason here (under his comments). That’s how I know for sure $TAO is the future of AI infrastructure. Because there’s NEVER a world where broke, low IQ gamblers are smarter than self-made rich.

· 2026-04-18T16:03:53+00:00Just picked up some $TAO at $250. Thesis: Bittensor subnets are shipping real product. AI + crypto convergence is inevitable. Not a trade. A 2-3 year conviction hold. BTC dominance still rising = altcoin headwinds short term. But at these levels the risk/reward is asymmetric.
