Bittensor Basics: dTAO

Описание: In this concise 2-minute explainer I break down the essentials of dynamic tao (dTao) inside the Bittensor network:

What is dTao? Dynamic tao is the live, on-chain price signal of each subnet’s economy. It represents the real-time exchange rate between TAO and a subnet’s native reward currency.

What is a subnet? A subnet is an independent marketplace within Bittensor where miners and validators collaborate on a specific AI task, compete for incentives, and issue their own reward currency.

What are alpha tokens? Each subnet mints its own alpha tokens (sometimes called dTao tokens). Miners earn them as block rewards, and holders can trade them for TAO, providing a direct metric of that subnet’s value.

How can newcomers stake alpha tokens? Anyone can acquire alpha tokens on the dTao market (e.g., Taostats or Backprop) and then stake alpha tokens back into the subnet contract to earn additional rewards, share fees, or future airdrops—no special hardware required.

Whether you’re totally new or already mining, understanding dynamic tao, subnets, and alpha-token staking is key to navigating Bittensor’s fast-growing creator economy.
