TAO – The Digital Dream That Promises to Beat Bitcoin.
I came across a video that, at first glance, seemed like just another enthusiastic plea for an obscure cryptocurrency. The title? “How Many TAOs Do You Need to Become a Millionaire?” – a classic clickbait that makes you wonder if you’ve missed the train to financial paradise. But curiosity pushed me to listen. And what i discovered was more than just speculation: a story about ambition, technology and, perhaps...hmm!! 😊⚡a little naivety.
#BitTensor, with its #TAO token, presents itself as a kind of blockchain infrastructure for artificial intelligence. Not just a place to trade coins, but an ecosystem where AI can be trained, stored and distributed. Sounds impressive, right? A kind of free market for AI models, where every contribution is rewarded in TAO. Basically, TAO wants to become the fuel for a global decentralized AI network.
The author of the video claims that TAO is young, less than two years old, and has all the ingredients for an explosive success: limited supply (21 million tokens), halving mechanism (the first will be in December 2025), and a growing demand for AI.
And yes....The project has all the ingredients for a #crypto success: limited supply of 21 million tokens, halving mechanism that will reduce daily emission in the future, and a booming market - artificial intelligence. It's easy to see why some investors are excited. TAO seems to be at the beginning of a trajectory that, in theory, could rival that of #Bitcoin - So far, everything seems to be aligning perfectly.
As you can see in the chart below, TAO has had an upward evolution in recent days, a sign that interest in the Bittensor project is starting to grow. However, the current price is still far from historical highs, which leaves room for speculation — but also for caution.
This is where things get interesting. TAO is not only a coin, but also the key to access subnets like #Shoots or #DeepSeek – projects that offer open-source AI models, some even considered rivals to #ChatGPT. Shoots, for example, delivers 10 billion tokens per day and is growing at an interesting pace. DeepSeek, developed in China, was absorbed by BitTensor and offers free access to high-performance AI models/... So, what makes TAO really interesting is not just the token itself, but the access it offers to subnets like Shoots and DeepSeek.
But here comes the first shadow of doubt. Although the subnets are promising, the platform is difficult to use. Even the author admits that it is complicated to configure your wallet and interact with Shoots. For a project that wants to democratize #AI, accessibility should be a priority. Hmmm!! from my point of view this would be the first crack in the enthusiasm displayed: the platform is not exactly user-friendly. Setting up a #wallet, interacting with subnets – all of this requires above-average technical knowledge.
One of the boldest claims in the video was that if TAO reaches Bitcoin’s current value, you’d only need a few tokens to become a millionaire. It’s simple math, but based on big assumptions. More realistically, if TAO were to make it into the top 10 #cryptocurrencies, the price could be several thousand dollars per token – which would still mean huge earning potential.
But here’s where the criticism comes in. TAO is still a niche project, with a small community and a technology that’s hard to digest. It’s not listed on all the major platforms, it doesn’t have the hype of other coins, and it hasn’t yet proven that it can sustain mass adoption. Comparing it to #Bitcoin is risky – Bitcoin isn’t just a currency, it’s a symbol, a financial revolution. TAO, for now, is just a promise.
#BitTensor and #TAO are fascinating. The idea of building a decentralized AI network is ambitious, and if it succeeds, it could be a game-changer. But we shouldn’t let our enthusiasm blind us. In the #crypto world, every dream comes with risks, and TAO is no exception.
So if you’re thinking about investing, do it with an informed mind. TAO isn’t just a coin—it’s a bet on the future of AI. And like any bet, it can bring huge rewards… or expensive lessons.
I always think as soon as someone say that this is the best blockchain and has potential that someone tries to push something. I don't believe in this and the past often shows that I was right about it. In the beginning of my crypto journey I followed every hype but nowadays I refuse to invest in every new thing. Same with meme and shitcoins. This saved me a lot of money which I lost before.
Also there is no need to make a blockchain for every crap idea which let me think that they want to make massive money with their own blockchain. IDK It feels weird to me and I learned to trust my instinct.
!BBH !DUO
You just got DUO from @chaosmagic23.
They have 1/1 DUO calls left.

Your expectations are valid and even necessary in the crypto world. Hype can be dangerous, especially when fueled by empty promises. I really like seeing a realistic comment like yours. I'm not saying that TAO is guaranteed to succeed, but i find the concept behind it interesting. I'm trying to understand more, without jumping in headfirst. Thanks for bringing a bit of balance to the discussion.
It's always good to understand more or DYOR. I didn't think that you just jump right into something but some people might. Some people throw with DYOR around them but never really did it. 😂
