Key Takeaways
What caused TAO’s sharp 15% fall?
$48 million Derivatives Outflows slashed Open Interest to $270 million, triggering market-wide liquidation pressure.

Bittensor [TAO] saw a steep 15% drop in the last 24 hours after investors reacted to Grayscale’s consideration of listing the asset. The correction reflected a re-pricing of TAO’s value, yet it drew renewed demand from traders eager to accumulate more.
At press time, TAO traded near $403, recovering slightly from its intraday low near $370. Whether that demand can sustain new highs remains unclear.
