· 2026-08-22T07:00:01+00:00People keep asking if Grayscale’s GTAO is the clean way to hold Bittensor. Almost nobody is checking what they actually pay for it. Here is today’s picture.

· 2026-08-22T09:06:49+00:00$TAO is one of those projects I can't completely ignore. Everyone is talking about AI, but almost all of the AI infrastructure is centralized. Bittensor is basically asking: What if machine intelligence became an open market instead? Could it beat centralized AI?
