Chris | Start With TAO

Helping you start with Bittensor. I trade subnets with my own AI bots and post every move, wins and losses. Learning in public, ask anything. NFA $TAO

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

Want to get into Bittensor or AI but don't know where to start? I was there not long ago.

I run my own AI bots that scan all 128 subnets, rebalance every 3 days and post every trade here, wins and losses.

Follow along and start with TAO. NFA.

$TAO #Bittensor

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

Price target check 🎯

Where do you see $TAO by the end of 2026?

And which subnet do you think has the biggest upside from here?

Drop your numbers below. No wrong answers, I'll read every reply. NFA #Bittensor

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

Subnet 3/128: Teutonic

Problem: training frontier language models is locked inside one lab.

How: miners challenge the reigning "king" model; validators crown a better checkpoint.

Live chain is Teutonic-II ~110B MoE (per https://t.co/etPrwEFY8T)

$TAO #Bittensor

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

For newcomers asking what a subnet actually does:

@Hippius_cloud priced 50TB stored + 25TB downloaded a month:
Hippius: $245
Cloudflare R2: $750
Amazon S3: $3,318

A subnet competing with AWS on price. That's decentralized AI in practice. $TAO

[The TAO Daily @taodaily_io]

As @markjeffrey said, a “Jevolution” may be coming to Bittensor.

But what is Jev? How could it change decentralized AI? And how are Bittensor subnets already using it today?

We answered all three in this article 👇

@RvCrypto That pace is exactly why I post every rebalance. Subnets ship weekly; waiting a quarter to catch up misses the point. What's one shipping update from this week that stood out most to you?

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

@taodaily_io Weight copying is the part newcomers miss: if you can copy another miner's score without doing the work, rewards stop reflecting real contribution. Fair scoring keeps the incentive engine honest. $TAO

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

@OnChainFox @green_compute_ This is the kind of real infrastructure I watch. My bot kept SN110 on the clean-uptrend list through the last couple of rebalances — green power + paid compute is rare. Still early. NFA $TAO

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

Right now $TAO still moves with Bitcoin, not with AI.

But subnets are reporting real revenue from GPU rentals, storage and inference.

So when does it start trading like an AI business instead of a crypto coin? What's the trigger for you? #Bittensor

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

Subnet 2/128: DSperse

Problem: you can't prove an AI answer really came from the model it claims.

How: miners run the model as a zk-circuit and return a cryptographic proof validators check.

By @inference_labs (300M+ proofs on-network per their docs)

$TAO #Bittensor

[Mark Jeffrey @markjeffrey]

Does your blockchain produce products?

$TAO products produce $50M in annual revenue now.

... And they're on track for $100M by end of 2026.

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

@BittensorIntern Newcomers miss this bit: registering a subnet isn't just a fee. You get months of emissions paying the owner and miners to build. That ~155k alpha runway is basically a grant for shipping. Wild when you put it in plain terms.

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

@Robin_T100 For me it's the infrastructure bet. A pure crypto trade wouldn't keep me posting every rebalance. I'm here for subnets that ship real products, not just charts. How do you weigh that split?

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

@i_compounding @green_compute_ Appreciate that. SN110 has stayed on my bot's clean-uptrend list through the last couple of rebalances — rare for something this new. Still learning. NFA

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

Beginner tip: a Bittensor wallet isn't just key storage anymore.

Tools like @CrucibleLabs are built for the ecosystem: hold $TAO + subnet alpha, swap across subnets, claim rewards.

If you're starting out, pick something made for subnets, not a generic crypto wallet. $TAO

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

Just set up an AI kitchen bot and I'm stunned 🤯

It logged into Tesco, built my shop from the meal plan, grabbed every meal deal + Clubcard price, checked photos of my fridge so it skipped what I've got, booked a delivery slot and ordered it.

Future's here @elonmusk @grok #AI

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

3 things I wish I'd known when I started on Bittensor:

1. TAO is the main token. Each subnet has its own alpha token
2. Staking TAO into a subnet = buying its alpha
3. Unstaking sells it back to TAO, so subnet prices move

Learn the mechanics before anything else. NFA $TAO

@YVR_Trader For beginners: buyback-and-burn looks bullish on a chart, but it can starve the runway.

A treasury funds liquidity, incentives and product when revenue dips. Scarcity is nice; survival is nicer.

Curious which subnets you think are doing the treasury path well? NFA $TAO

[Chris | Start With TAO @StartWithTAO]

@Donaxbt For newcomers: SN51 is Lium — a real GPU rental business on Bittensor. Customers pay for compute; that revenue is what pulls weight for $TAO when most subnets are still early.

Revenue > vibes is the filter I use. NFA

[Jolly Green Investor 🍀 @jollygreenmoney]

$NEAR made $2.2M in revenue last month which is $26M ARR

Market cap is $7B

SN51 lium made $1.4M in revenue last month which is $17M ARR

Market cap is $180M

$TAO is an ecosystem which has several subnets like lium earning millions in ARR and Bittensor as a whole has a total ARR of $50M+

Market cap is $3B

What am I missing here?
