Idiot mindset.
If someone is willing to invest in an S&P 500 ETF but not in individual stocks, your answer is that they should sell their ETF? That’s absolutely idiotic.
@EmersonDickie@JesusMartinez@SiamKidd So you’re saying if someone only wants S&P 500 ETFs and not single stocks, they should sell the ETF?
That’s a ridiculous way of thinking.
Everyone has their own risk tolerance and strategy.
@Watata100 Worst case: TAO trades sideways for 3 years until the next halving, Fed rate cuts, or $TAO builds a unique PMF/AI chokepoint then breaks out to new highs and goes parabolic.
@TravelKing711@JesusMartinez@SiamKidd I'm capping my subnet risk at 10%. Currently, I have 6% in subnets (4, 44, 63, 21) and don't see any other subnets unique enough in terms of price action, business model, or tokenomics to deploy the remaining 4%. I'm happy sticking with this allocation for now.
@TravelKing711@JesusMartinez@SiamKidd Let's say you invest $100 → 100 tokens at $1. 176% APY = 276 tokens.
Price dumps 70% ($0.30) → $82.8. Still ‑17%. Assuming APY holds for years is unrealistic.
Subnet risk = price keeps falling + dereg risk + no liquidity.
Wana Sell? Slippage wipes you out.
@TravelKing711@JesusMartinez@SiamKidd Not saying skip subnets but be careful if you’re not degen enough to lose your $TAO.
Subnets feel like gambling to me.
Not sure who wins, but $TAO wins no matter what.
$TAO: 21M max supply the ultimate pick-and-shovels play.
dTAO: 128/256/512/1024× the 21M supply.
@AlgodTrading Although I don’t 100% agree with all your arguments, some of them are great. Please keep going. Even though I’m TAO-pilled, we need people to be critical for the project to grow, as you said.
@AltcoinMillie Just came up with a use case: Dedicated Longing & Shorting Subnets could be built around stablecoins. While TAO could support long/short without them, stablecoins would offer traders much better stability by avoiding double volatility exposure on both TAO and the subnet token.
@CryptoZPunisher What if root staking income came from different sources, such as staking in an active subnet ETF and the upcoming longing and shorting mechanism of the funding rate?
