  Two people who were early in Bitcoin and early in Ethereum just went on record about $TAO. One of them wrote a book about Bitcoin in 2013. The other invested in the Ethereum ICO in 2015. Both of them started a fund with Jason Calacanis with a single thesis. Bittensor is the third great open-source substrate after Bitcoin and Ethereum. Here is the exact framing they used. In the early 90s Microsoft, AOL, and CompuServe were the well-capitalised incumbents. Everyone thought they would monopolise and run away with the internet. Then TCP/IP, Linux, and the World Wide Web came along and everything converged on an open-source substrate. Bittensor is that open-source substrate for the AI story playing out right now. OpenAI. Anthropic. Google DeepMind. XAI. Different cast of characters. Same pattern. And this time you can actually own a piece of the open-source substrate. Now read the valuation mismatch that should stop you cold. The four main AI labs combined are worth approximately $1.5 trillion. Bittensor is worth $1.7 billion. Ridges subnet competes directly with Claude and Cursor and has beaten them on benchmarks. Ridges market cap is $30 million. Cursor is worth $30 billion. That is not a small dislocation. That is a comical one. The highest valued subnet in the entire ecosystem is around $80 million. There has never been a billion dollar subnet yet. On Ethereum during the ICO mania projects with nowhere near this quality of output were raising hundreds of millions within minutes. Now think about how many orders of magnitude more capital is chasing AI opportunities today compared to 2017. When that capital discovers Bittensor the valuation rerating will be violent to the upside. Their exact words. Not mine. The man who called $TAO at $3,000 by end of 2026 said it directly. By 2030 it will be a trillion dollar ecosystem. Every molecule in my body is screaming this is another one. The people who read the docs always buy before the people who read the price. This is still early.

  @Nasdaq @SpaceX Getting in on SpaceX 🚀 today is like getting in on the railroad industry in the late 1800s. Or, it could be like getting in on dotcom craze in the late 90s. I’m thinking back on AOL, WorldCom, Mindspring, and COVAD. Then there are always those Captains of tech like Kodak, and Motorola. Who eventually died on the vine because they just couldn’t keep up. Their boards were old and myopic and just couldn’t conceive of a future, other than what they were already doing. But $SPCX though. 🤔 Sometimes you just have to say, “what ********” and lay down a hundred grand, cross your fingers, and hope the best for the future. And the future for the next hundred years is going to be the exploration of technologies and space that we can’t even comprehend today. It won’t be easy, it won’t be slick and clean and shiny like some sci-fi would have you believe. It will be *****, cold, fraught with danger in the vast emptiness. Some will thrive, some will lose. Just like the “New World” explorers 300 years ago. There are no guarantees.

  @Xfinancebull That’s the argument that actually matters. Yahoo, AOL, HSBC, Amex, Adobe. These aren’t crypto tourists. They’re builders who solved hard problems before XRP was even an idea. The chart is noise. The team is the signal. Always has been.

  @VerizonSupport the directions I’m given do NOT MATCH my screen. I a sick of the incessant outages and lack of support, I’ll cancel my contract with Verizon and find a provider that actually DOES allow access! AOL in the 90’s was faster!

  23. **Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (2008)** — Lost over $18.5 billion nominally, equivalent to over **$20.0 billion** today due to global credit declines and equity write-downs. 24. **Alcatel (2001)** — Suffered massive merger-related write-downs and market destruction during the telecom equipment collapse, crossing the **$20.0 billion** inflation-adjusted threshold. 25. **Swiss Re (2008)** — Incurred tens of billions in asset impairments and structured credit losses during the financial crisis, placing its real-loss event at the **$20.0 billion** inflation-adjusted mark. The Three Eras of Corporate Destruction What stands out is how concentrated these losses are. The Dot-Com and Telecom Collapse (2000–2002) The telecom bubble produced the single greatest concentration of corporate losses ever observed. AOL Time Warner, JDS Uniphase, Qwest, Deutsche Telekom, Vodafone, Vivendi, Alcatel, and NTT all appear on the list. Trillions of dollars in market value evaporated as companies wrote down acquisitions, fiber networks, wireless licenses, and internet-related assets purchased at bubble-era valuations. The Global Financial Crisis (2008–2009) AIG, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Citigroup, Royal Bank of Scotland, UBS, Credit Suisse, Swiss Re, and Mitsubishi UFJ all suffered enormous losses as mortgage securities, derivatives, and structured credit markets collapsed. Unlike many dot-com write-downs, these losses reflected real capital destruction that threatened the stability of the global financial system. Industry-Specific Collapses General Motors appears three separate times on the list, highlighting decades of structural challenges within the auto industry. United Airlines reflects the severe financial strain associated with bankruptcy and restructuring. Nakheel demonstrates how quickly even seemingly unstoppable real-estate booms can reverse. The Half-Trillion-Dollar Club The four largest losses alone account for nearly $470 billion in inflation-adjusted value destruction: * **AOL Time Warner (2002):** ~$143 billion * **AIG (2008):** ~$128 billion * **JDS Uniphase (2001):** ~$104 billion * **Fannie Mae (2009):** ~$94 billion Combined, these four annual losses destroyed more value than the current market capitalization of many of the world's largest public companies. The lesson from this ranking is simple: the biggest corporate losses rarely occur because a company has a bad quarter or even a bad year. They happen when an entire narrative breaks—whether it is internet mania, telecom euphoria, housing prices that supposedly never fall, or financial engineering that appears risk-free until suddenly it isn't.

  @art_zucker The problem is, they’ve got you all conditioned to pay for tokens like minutes on AOL.
