Yesterday, Subnet 76 — a deregistered subnet with effectively zero pool liquidity — experienced a temporary market cap spike from on-chain buy pressure. Because liquidity was so thin, the distortion pushed SN76 into the top subnets by market cap. This resulted in substantial losses for customers at a competitor that also aims to provide "subnet index" services to TAO holders. According to their announcement, their "Top 5" and "Top 15" indexes automatically rotate and weight constituents purely based on market cap rankings. Here is what happened yesterday: The spike temporarily moved SN76 to the top. That triggered automatic rebalancing in their systems. According to our on-chain analysis ~1,861.78 τ or ~$331,156 USD was then deployed thus far in a deregistered subnet with minimal liquidity. That resulted in a loss of 80.38% staked value. Trades reaching up to 97% slip. This highlights a fundamental architectural difference. TrustedStake does not auto-rotate constituents purely based on market cap movements. For our Top 5, 10, 15 etc. by market cap — this is intentional by design. Subnet rankings churn frequently. Pool metrics, liquidity depth, price action, emissions profiles, fundamentals — there are too many variables to allow constituents to change automatically without human judgment. Our index constituents are added manually via our controller as the ecosystem evolves. Once a subnet is intentionally approved and included, automation handles rebalancing from there. This design has mattered. It allowed us to completely sidestep the 90%+ drawdown in Taohash — even after it briefly entered the top ranks. We chose not to include it due to the velocity of its rise. It allowed us to avoid the ~50% drawdown in Ridges last summer before we added it to our indices. We waited for a proper retrace and structural stabilization before inclusion. We saved our valued users hundreds of thousands of hard earned dollars last night. We monitor these situations closely. We include subnets once strength is demonstrated — not during brief liquidity-driven spikes. And structurally, as another line of defense, our trading engine is built with: • Balance-sensitive TWAP • Internal slippage guards • Price impact thresholds • and much more… Transactions of that nature would not have cleared on our system to begin with. Another important point: the private 88 Quant Fund, run by the @investing88 team, automatically excludes subnets that have been deregistered or are approaching deregistration. Layers upon layers of guardrails. We also offer custom portfolio creation or automated investing into any of our core indices via the “Batch” section of our self-service staking platform. Users can craft their portfolio as they choose — but those positions are not continuously rebalanced or automatically updated with future index changes since they do not use a proxy. Automation is powerful. Automation without guardrails creates fragility. Design decisions matter. Our heart goes out to every affected user in the community.

FOMC out tomorrow. Cheat sheet on Macro Environment. How does this affect #Bittensor | #TAO | #dTAO 🧠 TAO x 2025: Macro Environment Here’s what will move $TAO this cycle and what could break it. 1. Macro Tailwinds • Cooling CPI / PCE: Disinflation = rate cuts = weaker dollar. Risk assets bid. → Bullish backdrop if AI/tech rotations resume. • Dovish FOMC: More liquidity + lower rates = risk-on. → $TAO benefits from rotation into AI-native crypto. • Soft NFP / Labor data: Weaker jobs = easing bias. → Renewed bid for growth assets like TAO. • Weak GDP print: Recession fears = pre-emptive Fed easing. → Structural bets on AI infra get more attention. • Geopolitical clarity: MiCA, G20, or conflict resolution = volatility drops. → Institutions step back in. 2. Protocol Catalysts • TAO Halving (July '25): Daily emissions cut in half. → Miner sell pressure drops. Supply shock incoming. • dTAO Upgrade: Market-driven emissions tied to Alpha Token performance. → Incentive realignment favors high-performing subnets. • Subnet Expansion = real-world AI pipes. → Utility ↑ = valuation ↑ • EVM Compatibility + Hotkeys: TAO plugs into DeFi stack. → Dev adoption + cross-chain liquidity. • Institutional Adoption: Copper custody + TSX listing = legitimacy. → Onboards longer-term capital. 3. Risks to Watch • Sticky Inflation / Strong Dollar: Rate cuts delayed = risk-off. → Broad crypto headwind. • Break below $389: Triggers downside momentum to $356. → Short-term sentiment hit. • Subnet Underperformance: If Alpha mechanics underdeliver, confidence cracks. → Staking + dev activity drops. • Halving Delay (to Jan ‘26): Postpones the supply shock. → Bullish narrative stalls. • Regulatory or Security Incidents: Any major exploit or hostile regulation. → Institutional trust eroded.

@NatanaelTrades Looks like fun. hmu when back

4 month trip and finally back home in Florida. Side note: Chase sapphire card is worth it 💯

Tokenization is quietly becoming Wall Street’s next big move. Goldman. BlackRock. BNY. They’re all in. It’s not just crypto—real assets like funds, real estate, even Treasuries are going on-chain. Here’s why it matters 🧵👇 What is tokenization? It's the process of turning real-world assets (stocks, bonds, cash) into digital tokens on a blockchain. Why now? $256B in stablecoins already exists. Tokenized Treasuries and money market funds are next. Faster settlement. Less friction. More liquidity. Wall Street’s in: - Goldman Sachs + BNY Mellon just launched tokenized funds. - BlackRock is testing tokenized cash strategies. The pitch: - Fractional ownership - 24/7 markets - Global access - Fewer intermediaries The risk? - Regulation is unclear - Secondary markets are fragmented - Some say it’s “blockchain theater” The takeaway: Tokenization is more than a buzzword. It’s a quiet revolution in how assets are issued, owned, and traded. Ignore it at your own risk. #Tokenization #Crypto #WallStreet #DeFi #FinTech

The Nasdaq 100 has gone 60 straight sessions without closing below its 20 day moving average, according to BTIG. That is the second longest streak on record. The last time we saw this was in early 1999. A crash followed. The S&P 500 is trading at 26 times forward earnings. The long term average is closer to 18. J.P. Morgan says investors are buying the most volatile names at the fastest pace in 30 years. The market is pricing in a perfect soft landing with no risk. This is where smart allocation and hedging come into play. You do not have to call the top. But when everyone is leaning the same way, it pays to protect the downside while letting winners run. #Trading #investing #riskmanagement

⚡️Extracting Alpha – A Case Study On May 27, Subnet 88 had a clever miner who deployed a single-day profitable meta strategy, taking advantage of low-cost mass registration. This invited lively debate in our community. Was it random luck, or true alpha? To find out, we applied simple and rigorous quant methods, with zero optimization and a conservative 55% capital allocation—transforming 19 isolated strategies into one unified, diversified composite. The result speaks for itself. Optimized composite strategies will form the backbone of our product line for real-world investors. As dTao matures and liquidity deepens, opportunities abound.

@NatanaelTrades Lezzzzz go!!

Good afternoon, everyone. I would like to take a moment to address my recent absence from social media, particularly Twitter. Over the past few weeks, a lot has been happening in my personal life, which has led me to take a break from my social media activities. However, I am pleased to announce that I am now ready to come back and become more active on my socials. Furthermore, I'm looking forward to taking the next step in building a personal connection with the NateTrades brand and you all. In the coming months, I'll be working hard to share more about my journey and experiences, and to create more meaningful connections with all of you. Thank you for your continued support and understanding during my absence, and I look forward to reconnecting with you all soon.
