Methodology

BT40 tracks the top 40 Bittensor subnets by a composite score (market cap, emissions, validator quality), capped at 10% per subnet and rebalanced every tempo (~72 min). It's a single, diversified exposure to dTAO instead of picking subnets by hand.

You always keep your keys. TaoScale never holds your TAO — every stake is an add_stake extrinsic you sign in your own wallet, routed to the best validator for each subnet. We only request a signature; funds move directly on-chain.

Staking yield accrues to your alpha automatically each tempo. We track your cost basis locally so you see real accrued yield, and you can claim (unstake just the gains) or leave it to compound — your choice, non-custodial.

10% of the yield you earn (never your principal), of which 30% is shared with referring partners. Prediction markets charge a 2% trading fee. No deposit, withdrawal, or management fee on capital.

Trade on subnet rankings, TAO price and index performance with a constant-product AMM. Positions resolve against on-chain outcomes. On-chain escrow settlement is on the roadmap.

Pre-stake TAO toward the launch goal of the TaoScale subnet — a threshold crowdfund priced at the real, live on-chain registration cost. When fully funded, the subnet is registered and backers receive $TAOS alpha first. Refunded if the goal is missed.
