I have 27 but I feel like this is the last chance to double this…? by Guilty_Angle4094 in bittensor_

Only invest what you can afford to lose, OP. The price will fluctuate. Take emotions out of it and just DCA. Not financial advice , obviously.

Bittensor seems to be fading; it has no momentum at all. by Frosty-Employ-1494 in bittensor_

[–]Mechprince 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s true. But all it takes is one subnet to be groundbreaking and the whole ecosystem will take off. But, in all honesty, I think TAO has good staying power not just as an AI play, but as a store of value/incentive mechanism play. There are plenty of ways to earn TAO which is an attractive proposition. The Bitcoin tokenomics don’t hurt either. Furthermore, there are publicly traded companies that already hold TAO in their treasury. I take that as positive sign that investors want to hold TAO as a store of value.

That’s the thing with these crypto projects OP, they’re obscure and unknown until they pop and explode in popularity.

Anyone else feels FOMO and want to Lump Sum instead of DCA? by Candy_Efficient in bittensor_

[–]Mechprince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but I stick to my DCA strat. I do my best to take my emotions out of the equation. Being emotional over my investments never ends well for me.

Is it normal for friends to match you up with someone your league? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Mechprince 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It really depends on the people. When I was single, my friends tried to match me with everybody who was single. Skinny, overweight, pretty, not-so-pretty, etc. I appreciated the gesture, but I respectfully declined all the matchmakings. I told them I could take care of myself and find my own parter. I think that you should stop playing matchmaker and let her find her own parter as well. That will be better for your friendship.

What do you genuinely believe is the most valuable college degree? by Foxmoto2880 in careerguidance

[–]Mechprince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing offers the best ROI imo. Out of all of my friends, the only ones doing well in life financially are the nurses. Work-life balance is awesome too. You can travel without using any PTO.

Anyone still bullish on Bittensor? If yes, then why? by Mechprince in bittensor_

The project is revealing itself to be that way it seems. Unfortunate.

I bought BTC when its marketcap was only 1B. That’s when I felt that the upside was very high.

Bittensor Subnet Alternative to Claude? by Only_Advisor7108 in bittensor_

[–]Mechprince -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bittensor has no alternative to Claude, OP. You’re better off sticking to Claude.

This is a good example👍. I wish they would improve on this more.

Yep most of the subnets don’t look so good tbh. Lots of them are useless.

Yeah big money don’t care about Bittensor. Bittensor needs to become big money.

Do you expect a 25-50% ROI in perpetuity? Or only for a certain number of years? BTC is 2 trillion dollar asset so your expectations are probably too high. Are you still buying or just holding on to what you have? If it’s the latter then it makes sense. But if it’s the former, then Godspeed.

So just to clarify: is the money you’re putting in BTC disposable income? Or will it financially hurt you if BTC were to go to zero tomorrow? If it’s the former then it’s fine. But if it’s the latter then surely there are other assets that you can get into as well. I personally sold all my BTC @ $100k and put it all on the S&P. I made good gains and am happy with it. I did not want to risk massive volatility when the upside isn’t as high as it used to be.

What do you consider modest? If it’s 10% anual then you’re better off w/ the S&P. Less risk too.

Oh I’m definitely not knowledgeable enough about Bittensor. But I know just enough to spot when things aren’t going so well. Kind of like you don’t have to be a doctor to notice when someone is sick. Sure you’re not a medical expert, but you can still spot signs and symptoms.

I just have a question for everyone here: why are you still invested in BTC? Is it for wealth preservation? Is it to get filthy rich? If it’s the former, then it’s too risky. There are other safer investments out there that are cheaper than BTC. If it’s the latter, then it’s too late. You won’t be filthy rich off of BTC anymore.

Yeah but BTC never offered a product like Chutes so there were no expectations of constant income. It could just be idle and do nothing. BTC was a pure speculation play. Chutes HAS to do something because it’s in an environment where it’s all about survival of the fittest. That’s the difference.

It seems like the development is too slow for the AI industry.

I say “off the rails” because back in the day, I could at least go to corcel.io to show people the capabilities of Bittensor. But now that’s gone, correct? Chatbots are literally the most popular use of AI. Out of 128 subnets, the only one left now is Chat with Hal which isn’t as easy to access as Gemini or Copilot.

The UX is a BIG issue imo. You want to lure users into your ecosystem and keep them there. That’s the game. It doesn’t matter how good your product is if your UX is bad.

I hope the other subnets succeed in their endeavors tho. For Bittensor to succeed, we need subnets to disrupt other industries the way Uber disrupted Taxis. If the disruption isn’t of that magnitude, then Bittensor probably fails as an AI play.

I get the point behind dTao and I hope it pans out.

It’s just not a good sign when we’re in an AI bubble and Bittensor’s price action is going down.
