Bittensor (TAO) is the only asset since Bitcoin that Karia deeply understands and believes in. It creates a decentralized intelligence layer that coordinates global compute and talent to build AI models that compete with and surpass centralized AI. Subnets are generating real external revenue (top three subnets collectively ~$20M ARR), proving product-market fit. Tokenomics mirror Bitcoin with a 21M hard cap and halving schedule, giving it a predictable supply. As awareness of centralized AI risks grows, TAO benefits from the same movement dynamics that made Bitcoin successful.
Foundational decentralized money and store of value.
Bitcoin is the foundational decentralized money and store of value. Karia went all-in on Bitcoin in 2016 because it was the only crypto asset that truly made sense to him. He holds it as the core portfolio asset alongside TAO, driven by deep conviction in its role as an unconfiscatable, permissionless financial system.
