This is my 4th mohs skin cancer surgery. Before these 4 surgeries, I probably had over a dozen of spots taken off with liquid nitrogen. The mohs surgery is where they deeply cut out the cancerous spot. Pain in my ass since I can’t do much activity for a while. Stitches come out in 2 weeks. I miss the liquid nitrogen removals. Those were easy. Sure they hurt, but no stitches and I could be active the next day. The real bummer here is I have yet another spot on my back which will need to be evaluated and taken off the same way. Moral of the story: wear sunscreen. All those years mowing lawns and lifeguarding as a kid caught up to me.

Bittensor subnet 41 @almnc_ai is having a killer September. Why? Their @Polymarket volume is through the roof and increasing daily. (pic below). What does that mean for Almanac alpha holders? - 1% of all fees from trading are put into buybacks - for context, they went from $11M to $12M in fees in 5 days. $10k buyback. This was on Sept 15th. - they then went from $12M to $13M in 3 days. Another $10k in buy backs. This was on Sept 19th. So far Almanac has bought back 515 bittensor:native and the buyback volume is increasing weekly (as noted above per Polymarket volume). The 515 bittensor:native equates to over 78,000 alpha burned. This is fantastic for alpha holders and miners. Almanac also has over 300 miners. This is a true Bittensor subnet. They also have around 11% of alpha locked, but they said they are focusing more on the burn to satisfy alpha holders and miners (as of now). People always want to hold subnets generating revenue and performing buybacks. This is one of them and the flywheel is flywheeling.

Would y’all rather have this PSA 10 Charizard….. or 3,500 bittensor:native or 660 zcash:native Yes Pokemon and sports cards are going absolutely parabolic. That being said, I think the asymmetric upside lies in blue chip crypto. In this scenario, $TAO all the way. You could literally stake it and earn 6% (very conservative estimate) = 210 $TAO per year….compounding.
Why I spent $1 million on a PSA 10 1st Edition Charizard: Because it’s sick. And it’ll be sick in 25 years too. I've been in the collectibles space for a long time, and it's clear there’s still so much room for growth. When I think about what I want to own for the next 10, 20, 30 years, Pokémon cards top that list. And this Charizard is the purest expression of my belief in this community. First Edition, Shadowless, Base Set, Gem Mint 10, clean 6 cert. There's no better version of the thing I wanted as a kid. There aren’t many things I could spend money on that I'm confident I’d still love in 2050, but this is one of them. I think there’s still a lot to improve in this space, and I’m building something to bring this vision to life. If you’re a fellow collector or builder in the space, dm me and follow @TCXcards.

Welcome to Bittensor bittensor:native Almost every big organization and CEO is saying the same thing without saying the words "BITTENSOR" This is quite literally BITTENSOR. Can only scream it from the mountain tops for so long until those who need to hear it, hear it. Matter of time. Just shows how early you if you hold bittensor:native

Just swapped $ETH into Bittensor bittensor:native subnet alpha tokens using the @taodotcom wallet. Did a small amount to test it. Super easy and seamless. Love the Tao dot com wallet btw. Great user experience and love how easy it is to see activity history, tao/USD balance, and daily returns/declines.
USDC to dTAO Crosschain swaps. Now LIVE. Swaps settle in seconds, it's FAST. Like, seriously quick. Directly from Subnets into USDC (Or ETH) and vice versa. Try it today at TAO.com

Here is a quick summary of Bittensor bittensor:native for those too lazy to click the link and spend a few mins reading. What is Bittensor - the 30 second version: "Bitcoin proved something weird: if you pay people worldwide to compete at one task, you get the largest supercomputer on Earth and $2.5 trillion in value — with no company at all. Bittensor asked: what if that trick worked for AI, science, and every other kind of useful digital work? So it took Bitcoin’s exact economics — 21M coins, halvings, mining contests — and made the task programmable. Each of the 128 subnets is a different task. Together they pay out roughly a quarter-million dollars a day to the people doing the most useful work on the internet." How it actually works: “Each subnet has its own sort of Hunger Games contest of miners competing to earn the TAO. The validators are the judges of the Hunger Games — they decide which miners did the best. Only the best and only the fastest get paid. It’s sort of Highlander: there can be only one.” IMO here is the asymmetric bet for those investing: “You can’t invest in hot, early-stage AI companies unless you are accredited AND you have VC-style access to the deal. It’s closed to you. But Bittensor subnets are open to everyone. Every person on earth now has a way to participate in the AI wave.” “Holding TAO is like owning the S&P 500 of all the subnets. If five or six of them just run and go crazy, it’ll still drag TAO up in value, because TAO sits in the liquidity pool opposite every subnet token. If you don’t know which one to bet on, you just hold TAO.” The snapshot below shows why Bittensor bittensor:native is the BEST at gathering stranded talent from all over the world. Bittensor doesn't care where you're from, your sexual orientation, pronouns, if you have a criminal record, etc - if you are the BEST at improving a specific JOB, then you get paid. Think about that ☝️ and compare it to your typical fortune 500 company. This is why the Bittensor subnets are shipping at an absolutely INSANE speed and beating their centralized competitors. TLDR: buy bittensor:native for financial freedom and a bet on the future of artificial intelligence.

This is ONE subnet on Bittensor bittensor:native Just one of the 128. Got $TAO?
the ARR on @engyai is now 3.5m-4m usd, hoping to scale this beyond 8 figures before end of year. Demand for inference will be infinite, accelerate

I don't know if there will be a great $ZEC rotation into bittensor:native, but I would not be surprised. Both are blue chips and one is severely undervalued by 5x. Opportunity in plain sight.

For those not familiar with Bittensor bittensor:native, this is just ONE of the 128 subnets on the network. ONE. Impossible not to be ultra-bullish here.
Welcome to the era to decentralized post trained models that beat the frontier in their classes.

Me trying to take a piss in the middle of the night.
Car fire at the Wawa in Northampton, PA, yesterday. I’m genuinely not trying to be funny at all, but is it normal for a firefighter to have this much difficulty controlling the hose?

Will barry be right on both zcash:native and bittensor:native ? Both excel in their narratives, on the bittensor:native side the quality has been increasing a lot although we still have a long way to go. Compared to 2 years ago the quality probably went up 100x. accelerate

Don't forget.. $TAO ran 1,600% in 5 months $45 to $750 Since then.. its spent two years consolidating that massive move The biggest mistake people will make.. Is getting so fucking bored and frustrated with this consolidation that they lose interest right before the next big move The reason for the first pump.. was the market waking up to #bittensor's fundamentals In my view, those fundamentals have improved dramatically since.. We are due another repricing People forget just how violently $TAO is capable of moving By the looks of the haters.. so many are going to be caught off guard Its going to be glorius $TAO

How to swap $TAO for USDC using Allways Access @allways_io (Bittensor subnet 7). You can swap assets such as TAO, SOL, BTC, ETH, and various USDC versions directly between independent blockchains. A complete walkthrough below 👇

Good points. Subnets definitely trade at higher beta. Expect volatility. Even with the recent dtao sum of subnet decline, the money will eventually flow back in. Can you time this? Maybe, yes. Every time $TAO pumps, exit your subnet portfolio. Wait for SOS to drop and re-enter. Personally I didn't think a 20% pump in $TAO would cause people to do this, but it seems it is the same paper hands in dtao and until big money enters, we will play these little games. But just a reminder here: 17,000 $TAO is the result of dtao dumping from 1.32 to around 1.18. That's not very much. There are multiple wallets with over $10k TAO. Over time, I would think Root Reborn will solve this as people just stake in root. That root stake will make its way to subnets through the validator weighted baskets. Flashback to when Subnet 3 gained notoriety. The subnet went from like .03 to .09. Huge gains. This was also followed by a $TAO pump and ALSO resulted in a DTAO pump. People found Bittensor and also found subnets. Almost every subnet was 🚀. Then we know what happened, which really left a bad taste in people's mouths.....especially the new investors who felt swindled. I do feel as though we need a breakout or two to reach the point of HODLing subnet alpha and not day trading. For me, I do not day trade subnets. I do not exit when they run up. I do, however, try to time my entries. If I feel the subnet is trading at a "52-week low" and I like the owners, fundamentals, etc then I will enter a position. Even with the recent dtao dump, I am still up on the majority of my positions (meaning I've bought in lower than the current price) and I'm also earning APY. Again, when investors return and enter DTAO, all the same names will pump. When people see others entering, more will enter out of FOMO. We've seen this happen multiple times. In the end, I think dtao investors are just early. We all got in BEFORE the subnet alpha halving which will be looked at as the GLORY DAYS years from now. Excited to see what will be announced at Exploit Summit. I'm sure many subnet teams will announce some bangers. Perhaps the recent dtao dump is a GREAT entry point for the next leg up. I already see a lot of blue chip subnets earning revenue trading at massive discounts.
I understand the fear but subnets will trade with a higher beta...initial lag followed by rapid swings higher as people discover TAO and move out on the risk curve. same way ETH alts exploded in 2021. ETH went from ~$730 at the start of 2021 to an ATH near ~$4,800 in Nov 2021 (~6.5×). many ETH alts / DeFi / NFT / L1-adjacent names did multiples of that: many large caps did 10–50×+, and smaller names expanded even more. I don't know why we wouldn't see that here.

While driving around, I see so many expensive cars on the road. Take this 2027 Yukon Denali as an example. Over $100k What kind of net worth do you need to comfortably purchase this? Personally, I have no debt with over 7 figures in the bank and still would never buy something so expansive. Especially something like a depreciating asset that drops 20% year over year. Seems to me that people live way beyond their means. I still remember buying a car from a dealership when I was like 20 and there was a guy having his whole family (like 5 people) consign in case he didn’t make the payments. Just crazy. No wonder people are broke as shit and living paycheck to paycheck.
