Episode notes
INSIGHT

TAO Holders' Conviction During Crypto Downturn

  • BitTensor (TAO) showed strong conviction during a 30% Bitcoin correction and remained in the top 15–20 tokens excluding stables/memes.
  • The hosts see this resilience as evidence of committed holders and growing institutional interest.
INSIGHT

Intermittent Decoupling Signals Latent Demand

  • TAO briefly decoupled from Bitcoin, spiking from 380 to 536 with ~$1B volume before re-aligning with the market.
  • That move suggests intermittent institutional or large buyers can drive rapid TAO price action.
ADVICE

Use Dollar-Cost Averaging For Convicted Positions

  • Dollar-cost-average into liquid public assets if you have long-term conviction to minimize slippage and execution risk.
  • Public markets let you DCA while private markets are infrequent and favor elites.
