Strategies

Five ways to follow the network

Deposit in USDT/USDC or the equivalent in TRX, BNB, BTC, SOL (Solana) and POL (Polygon).

Starter · Conversational AI

Chat TAO

Follows Bittensor's conversational-AI subnets, where miners answer prompts from validators and are scored on the quality of their replies. The most accessible way in to learn how emissions reward useful work.

Min. deposit: 15.00 USDT
Est. daily rate: 0.70% – 0.92%
Lock: 90 days
Capital: Returned at the end

Accepted: USDT · USDC · TRX · BNB · BTC · SOL · POL

Cancellable in first 25 days

Activate

Intermediate · Detection & inference

Bitmind / Corcel

Combines two real use cases on the network: BitMind, a subnet whose miners detect AI-generated images and video, and Corcel, apps that serve text and image inference from Bittensor subnets. Diversified across verification and inference.

Min. deposit: 50.00 USDT
Est. daily rate: 0.85% – 1.15%
Lock: 90 days
Capital: Returned at the end

Accepted: USDT · USDC · TRX · BNB · BTC · SOL · POL

Cancellable in first 25 days

Activate

Advanced · Text prompting

Subnet 1

Built around Subnet 1, the network's original text-prompting subnet and one of its most competitive. Validators score miners' language-model answers against each other, so only the strongest replies earn emissions.

Min. deposit: 250.00 USDT
Est. daily rate: 0.97% – 1.32%
Lock: 90 days
Capital: Returned at the end

Accepted: USDT · USDC · TRX · BNB · BTC · SOL · POL

Cancellable in first 25 days

Expert · Automated

ReplyTen / TAO Bot

An automated strategy: bots manage miner registration, stake and subnet selection around the clock, following where emissions move. Designed for the largest deposits.

Min. deposit: 1,000.00 USDT
Est. daily rate: 1.05% – 1.50%
Lock: 90 days
Capital: Returned at the end

Accepted: USDT · USDC · TRX · BNB · BTC · SOL · POL

Cancellable in first 25 days

Special · The $TAO token

TAO Burn

Centred on the $TAO token itself: a hard cap of 21,000,000, halvings that cut new issuance roughly every four years, and the TAO burned when miners and validators pay subnet registration fees. Scarcity is the thesis of this strategy.

Min. deposit: 25.00 USDT
Est. daily rate: 0.67% – 1.61%
Lock: 180 days
Capital: Included in daily rate

Accepted: USDT · USDC · TRX · BNB · BTC · SOL · POL

No cancellation

Deposit rules

How the lock and cancellation work

90-day lock

Deposits in Chat TAO, Bitmind / Corcel, Subnet 1 and ReplyTen / TAO Bot are locked for 90 days. When the training period ends, the full deposit is returned.

Cancel in the first 25 days only

You can cancel within the first 25 days. A 25% enrollment fee is charged on the deposit, and all earnings generated while the plan was active are also deducted.

After day 25

From day 26 the deposit can no longer be withdrawn — you must complete the full 90 days. This stops anyone from collecting returns and cancelling at the last minute.

Weekends are paused

Strategies run from Monday 00:00 to Friday 23:59:59 UK time. They pause on Saturday and Sunday and resume on Monday at 00:00 UK.

TAO Burn: 180 days, no withdrawals

The capital is paid back in parts inside each day's earnings, so it is not returned at the end of the 180 days, and the plan cannot be cancelled.

No compound interest

Daily earnings are paid to your balance and never reinvested automatically. Compounding would create false expectations about the results of AI strategies; a separate compound-interest section is under evaluation.

Example

John deposits 100 USDT in Chat TAO and cancels on day 20, after generating 11.20 USDT. He receives 100 − 25 (fee) − 11.20 (earnings) = 63.80 USDT. On day 26 he could no longer cancel.

Important information

Daily rates are estimates. They vary every trading day within each strategy's range and are not guaranteed. Past or simulated results do not predict future results.
Deposits are accepted in USDT/USDC or the equivalent in TRX, BNB, BTC, SOL (Solana) or POL (Polygon). The equivalent is calculated at the exchange rate at the time of deposit.
Strategies 1–4 lock the deposit for 90 days and return it when the training period ends. Early cancellation is only possible during the first 25 days and costs a 25% enrollment fee on the deposit plus all earnings generated while the plan was active. After day 25 the deposit stays locked until the full period is completed. These rules protect the training capital from uncontrolled withdrawals and prevent anyone from collecting returns and cancelling just before the end.
TAO Burn locks the deposit for 180 days and cannot be cancelled. Its daily rate includes the return of capital, so the deposit is not paid back at the end.
Strategies only generate earnings from Monday 00:00 to Friday 23:59:59 UK time; weekends are paused.
No compound interest is applied: earnings are paid to your balance and are not reinvested automatically, because compounding would give a false expectation of results the AI strategies cannot promise. A compound-interest section is under evaluation.
Crypto-assets are volatile and you may lose part or all of your deposit. Only deposit what you can afford to lose. Nothing on this page is financial advice.
