Gate News Bot Message, December 25th, according to CoinMarketCap data, TAO (Bittensor) is currently priced at $222.25, up 5.72% in the past 24 hours, with a high of $234.51 and a low of $206.57. The 24-hour trading volume reached $101 million. The current market capitalization is approximately $2.34 billion, an increase of $127 million from yesterday.
Important recent news about TAO:
1️⃣ Enhanced recognition of the value of AI tokens, with long-term resilience surpassing meme coins
Against the backdrop of capital structure differentiation in the cryptocurrency market, AI public chain projects represented by Bittensor demonstrate significant value resilience. Market cap remains above early 2025 levels, while mainstream meme coins have fallen by as much as 50% during the same period. This reflects a shift in market capital from short-term speculation to projects with real application scenarios. As a direct embodiment of the integration of blockchain technology and cutting-edge science, AI tokens are gradually becoming a niche sector supported by both “technological innovation” and “capital trends,” and are expected to become a core focus of capital allocation in 2026.
2️⃣ Expansion through traditional financial channels, enhancing liquidity and compliance
Swedish regulated digital asset management company Virtune launched the Virtune Bittensor ETP (trading code VIRTTAO) on December 19th on the Nasdaq Stockholm Exchange, offering a 1:1 exposure to TAO, fully backed by physical TAO, with an annual management fee of 1.95%. This product provides European investors with a compliant and convenient way to allocate to TAO, helping to increase awareness and liquidity of TAO within traditional financial systems and potentially supporting the token’s price through institutional demand.
3️⃣ Macroeconomic policy environment supports AI asset prospects
U.S. policy tilt towards artificial intelligence and blockchain infrastructure is creating long-term positive expectations. In 2025, the U.S. invested nearly $3 billion to promote AI commercialization. This policy and capital resonance provides external momentum for AI tokens and helps solidify TAO’s market position as a leading representative of the AI sector.

RAVE’s hype surge triggers a flood of copycat coin mania, as FF and INX expose the “pump-and-dump” scheme
Recently, altcoins represented by RAVE have sparked a fierce investment craze, but some old star projects like FF and INX have used this wave of hype to carry out “pump-and-dump” operations—rapidly driving up coin prices to lure retail investors to buy, and then dumping them heavily, causing the price to plunge rapidly. Such behavior not only exposes the project team’s funding difficulties, but also damages investors’ trust. Investors need to stay alert to signals like abnormal short-term surges in order to avoid the risk of being manipulated by the market.

Why Is Bitcoin Up Today? Hormuz Blockade Triggers Short Squeeze and a BTC Test of $75k
On April 13, Bitcoin rose from its early-session low of 70,741 to trade as high as $74,900 during the session, approaching the $75,000 level. The main drivers came from two directions: after Trump ordered the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, traders began to view Bitcoin as a geopolitical hedge asset; and a massive net short position that had been building as funding rates stayed persistently negative was met with liquidation, triggering a chain of liquidations totaling millions of dollars near the $70,000 support level.
