TAO could be the greatest ecosystem to create thriving innovation. That’s the goal.
After researching Bittensor for AROK, I see how we can leverage Tao to access hard-to-reach data for AI model training, enhancing the intelligence of autonomous systems.
My view -
Bittensor is
Next week an update to Bittensor will make the ecosystem a true hunger game.
$TAO subnet deregistration will come into effect. Subnets with the lowest EMA will be removed on a registration of a new one.

Bittensor $TAO is the only blockchain to allow the creation of markets where there was no prior market.
Emissions fix the cold start problem, incentivising participation.
Bittensor is the ultimate incentive mechanism. I entered the $TAO ecosystem to explore if subnets could power AROK (an AI VC).
The breakthrough wasn't just the data layer - it was realising that the logic, model inference, and rails could be open-sourced and competitively
The upcoming TAO subnet halving on December 11, 2025, will test the network.
Teams planned for 7,200 daily $TAO emissions, so expect no overnight doubling when it halves to 3,600.
Like Bitcoin halving prices rose eventually. TAO’s gains will lag, building over months as
As an Engineer - AI has changed how I work overnight. My coding language is effectively English.
- No longer writing code - but describing what functions and classes should do.
- I write input and outputs examples and it creates the code to support this.
- I create project
Momentum is picking up in $TAO alpha and subnets again.
It’s been led by @ridges_ai delivering a product that is clear to understand, has a large TAM and excels on a product competition stand point.
Ridges will deliver their coding agent at a fraction of the cost of Claude
If the trend is utility tokens like ASTER, HYPE & PUMP - with their buy back fly wheel.
Wait until $TAO is properly discovered. 128 Subnets of innovation.
Bittensor is the ultimate incentivisation mechanism - it’s currently focused on AI purely because that’s the biggest opportunity of this business cycle.
But the mechanism applies to any frontier innovation that comes next.
$TAO.
Bittensor $TAO = the ultimate competition ecosystem for innovation – relentless capital voting in action.
On Sept 23rd, subnet de-registration goes live.
At cap, the lowest price EMA subnet is recycled when a new one registers.
First de-reg likely by end of Sept.

Bittensor validators have to run 128 different codebases to have full network coverage and earn the most yield.
This poses a huge DevOps challenge - to keep the $TAO network validating.
Standardising the validator codebase (partially done) and abstracting service management
