AI projects are also doing halving? Bittensor’s first supply cut is imminent

[BlockBeats] Remember Bitcoin halving? Now it’s the AI sector’s turn to play this game.

Bittensor, a decentralized machine learning network, is about to experience its first-ever halving around December 14. The daily output of TAO tokens will be slashed in half—from 7,200 down to 3,600.

This network is quite interesting; it turns AI services into a market-driven “subnet” model, using incentive mechanisms to get each node to compete. It only launched in 2021, and in less than four years it’s already learning from Bitcoin to control supply.

Some analysts say this is a “key milestone in the network’s maturity.” After all, TAO’s total supply cap is set at 21 million, just like BTC’s 21 million. With tightening supply and decreasing inflation, how will the market react next? We’ll have to wait and see.

It looks like the decentralized AI track is seriously aiming to create its own narrative.
