I didn’t forget about our giveaway. I will announce winners soon. Due to my delay, I’ll do another giveaway right after to compensate you guys. Totally my bad. Love you.

WSX LATEST: Lium, the GPU rental marketplace operating on Bittensor’s Subnet 51, now hosts more than $30 million worth of hardware, including 225 NVIDIA B300 GPUs. According to the reported figures, 91% of its available GPU capacity is currently rented out, indicating strong demand for computing resources. The growth highlights the expanding role of decentralized infrastructure within the AI compute market, as @opentensor’s ecosystem continues to attract attention.

🚨 $TAO | GRAYSCALE - NEW SEC FILING On October 23, 2026, Grayscale filed Amendment No. 2 to its S-1 registration statement for the Grayscale Bittensor Trust. This is more than a simple ETF rumor. Key developments: • Grayscale intends to rename the trust Grayscale Bittensor ETF upon registration effectiveness and NYSE Arca listing. • The proposed ETF would hold actual $TAO, providing traditional investors with exposure to Bittensor without directly managing tokens. • The structure involves institutional infrastructure including BitGo, Coinbase Custody, BNY Mellon and Coinbase Prime. • Staking is contemplated, subject to regulatory and operational conditions. Why does this matter? Bittensor is progressively building bridges between decentralized AI and traditional financial markets. An ETF could expand access to $TAO, attract new categories of investors and potentially create additional demand for the underlying asset. But let's be clear: this is NOT an ETF approval, and no launch date has been confirmed. The regulatory process is progressing. What happens next matters. @DCGco , could you provide more clarity on the remaining regulatory steps, the potential timeline and the conditions for enabling staking? The Bittensor community would certainly appreciate an update. Source: SEC Form S-1/A, filed October 23, 2026. #Bittensor #TAO #GTAO #ETF Source: sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/…

Another 50 Sensei panda nfts have been burnt!! Panda deflation is real my friends. Pandas are transcending the physical. Keel your pandas safe, or watch them leave this reality and go back to the eternal now. Breathe in, breathe out.

Thinking out loud here.. I've always assumed a #Bittensor subnet would struggle to replicate what $TIG is building But the more I think about it.. the more I'm not sure $TIG has its own Optimisable Proof of Work system.. where algorithms compete, benchmarkers test them, and then innovators get rewarded based on adoption $TAO obviously works differently.. with miners, validators and Yuma Consensus deciding how rewards get distributed But.. Given how flexible #Bittensor subnets can be.. whats actually stopping someone from building a subnet with its own version of $TIG's benchmarking, verification and reward system? Could someone essentially recreate something similar to OPoW inside #Bittensor? Someone like @Apex_SN1, for example.. Obviously.. just because something is technically possible doesn't mean it would economically work Still questions around incentives.. verification.. licensing.. how rewards are distributed.. and whether it would all work properly at scale And maybe $TIG does have some very real advantages from being built specifically for algorithmic discovery But.. does that mean theres something fundamental about $TIG's architecture that would make it incredibly difficult for a #Bittensor subnet to replicate? Or.. does it basically come down to who designs the better system and executes it properly? I can already see the replies coming.. lol I'm not trying to FUD anything here.. I'm obviously heavily interested in both $TAO and $TIG I just think its a genuinely interesting question worth exploring.. Because the more I think about this stuff.. The less convinced I am that its as simple as $TIG = algorithms and $TAO = intelligence My dumb monkey brain does not know the actual answer.. So happy to be educated 👍
