Previous wording

As of May 12, 2026, TAO’s circulating supply was approximately 10.9 million tokens with a market capitalization of approximately $9.38 billion, according to publicly available sources. The lifecycle of TAO follows a supply schedule. Approximately one block is produced every ~12 seconds, with 1 TAO per block minted before the first halving (about 7,200 TAO/day), and 0.5 TAO per block minted after the first halving (about 3,600 TAO/day). The first halving occurred when total issuance reached 10.5 million TAO on December 15, 2025. TAO is not halved on a daily basis. Instead, the per-block emission rate decreases by 50% when predetermined issuance thresholds are reached. TAO has a hard cap of 21,000,000 tokens. Subtensor transaction fees are paid in TAO. Current public documentation indicates that transaction fees are deducted from total issuance rather than distributed as rewards. Accordingly, subnet miners and subnet validators generally do not receive TAO as transaction-fee awards for validating transactions, and instead earn rewards primarily through protocol emissions. In addition, per current documentation, certain staking-related transactions are described as subject to a percentage-based fee (for example, 0.05% of the TAO amount being staked or unstaked), in addition to any weight-based transaction fees (in this context “weight” is a measure of compute time).

Previous wording

We have not established a specific target amount of TAO that we seek to hold. Instead, we monitor market conditions, liquidity needs, and financing opportunities in determining whether to make additional TAO purchases in the future. We view our TAO holdings as long-term holdings and expect to continue accumulating TAO over time. As of September 10, 2025, approximately 88% of our treasury holdings were invested in TAO. We do not hedge our TAO exposure and have no diversification strategy into other crypto assets. Accordingly, our treasury strategy currently reflects long-only exposure to TAO. However, we are exploring the potential implementation of hedging strategies to manage risks associated with digital asset price volatility; we have not implemented any hedging strategies to date, and there can be no assurance that any such strategies will be implemented or, if implemented, effective.

Previous wording

Although a liquid market for TAO exists, we have not monetized (i.e., sold) any TAO to date. All TAO is staked as soon as trade settlement permits, and we currently stake TAO through two staking providers - tao5 and Yuma. We only engage in TAO staking. In the future, we may explore additional yield-enhancement strategies, including participation in Bittensor subnets. Any such activity would likely be undertaken with a third-party partner possessing substantial subnet expertise.

We recognized total other expense of $2,157,574 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to other expenses of $13,025,911 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which consisted, for the periods 2026 and 2025, of unrealized gains on digital assets, and for both 2026 and 2025, interest income on funds deposited in interest-bearing money market accounts and investments in short-term U.S. treasury bills, and changes in fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities. The decrease in interest income and unrealized gains on treasury bills totaling $274,398 is primarily attributable to the decrease in cash balances over the period and lower interest rates. The total decrease in other expense is primarily attributable to the decrease in the fair values of warrant and derivative liabilities of approximately $12.7 million and income attributable to the Yuma partnership investments of $31,870, partially offset by the unrealized loss on digital asset investments of approximately $1.6 million and the decrease in interest income as noted above.
