The future
is open
A public company building the infrastructure for open, decentralized AI.
† Historical, not a forecast: 1,226 TAO earned in the quarter ended June 30, 2026 on 61,201 TAO held at March 31, 2026, annualized. Measured before Bittensor’s Root Reborn upgrade (August 2026), which changed how root rewards accrue.

“xTAO has created an institutional product for Bittensor. We’re aligned on the vision and glad to be working alongside them.”
“We built Bittensor because ownership of AI should not be concentrated in the hands of a few companies. The technology inherent to machine learning is imitation — it reflects the people and incentives behind it, which is why it’s critical that networks like ours remain open, permissionless, and decentralized. Companies like xTAO show how aligned, long-term capital can accelerate adoption, strengthen validator operations, and bring institutional credibility to an ecosystem that must ultimately belong to everyone.”
Our business
xTAO Inc. is a publicly traded technology company building infrastructure for Bittensor and decentralized AI.

Treasury asset holdings
We hold TAO, the native token of Bittensor, on our balance sheet and earn staking rewards.

Growth includes TAO bought with financing proceeds and TAO earned from staking. *Approximate, as reported September 25, 2026.
† Historical, not a forecast: 1,226 TAO earned in the quarter ended June 30, 2026 on 61,201 TAO held at March 31, 2026, annualized. Measured before Bittensor’s Root Reborn upgrade (August 2026), which changed how root rewards accrue.
* Non-IFRS ratio: revenue of US$321,454 divided by operating expenses excluding US$53,532 of non-cash share-based compensation (US$121,096). The most directly comparable IFRS figure is revenue divided by total operating expenses of US$174,628, or 1.8×. Non-IFRS measures have no standardized meaning under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures of other issuers. Revenue is the TAO earned from staking, valued when earned; operating cash flow was −US$161,438, and turning TAO income into cash requires selling TAO.

Issue equity only when we expect it
to create shareholder value
Judged on cash runway, expected return and dilution.
Bitcoin opened up money. Bittensor is opening up intelligence.
Today, a handful of companies control the most capable AI. Bittensor is the alternative: an open network where anyone can contribute AI, anyone can use it, and the best work is rewarded in TAO, the network’s native asset.
How Bittensor works
Subnets
Markets that each produce one kind of AI: coding, inference, data and more.
Miners
Independent operators who compete to supply that AI.
Validators
The judges who score the work. xTAO operates here.
TAO
The asset the network issues to reward good work.
