Grayscale has filed Form 10 for BitTensor (TAO) Trust. This is a step toward making this vehicle an SEC reporting product once it becomes effective. The news came as TAO was hovering around $425, building the story of the day around institutional access and SEC disclosures rather than hype.
Why is Form 10 important for institutional access?
Form 10 does not create an ETF. Rather, regular SEC reporting is added to help institutional investors who require audited disclosures before allocation. Similar efforts have been made in other assets, improving distribution and diligence workflows and giving large managers clearer footing for assessing exposure.
BitTensor’s decentralized AI marketplace: 129 subnets
As of today, BitTensor’s network has 129 active subnets. Each subnet performs a focused AI task (text generation, inference, text-to-speech) and pays TAO rewards to miners whose output validators score.
Subnet Liquidity Reserves combine TAO and Alpha tokens to form small marketplaces that compete for TAO while contributing useful computing.
TAO token demand drivers: staking, validation, and builder activity
As the subnet grows, the network will engage TAOs in staking and verification, increasing on-chain work to earn rewards through developer participation.
This loop supports baseline demand independent of short-term trading fluctuations. A widely shared video also noted that DCG reported $11 million in private placement support led by BitTensor, which is consistent with the institutional implementation of the TAO story.

Traders focused on the $400 support and looked for a clean push above the highs of the recent range in parallel with new subnet launches and custody/distribution updates related to the Grayscale Form 10 BitTensor Trust.
