Bittensor is one of the more legitimate ideas in crypto because the concern it’s addressing is real. Centralized AI is becoming incredibly powerful, and there’s a real case for open, permissionless alternatives. The problem is that end users do not care about architecture first.

My theory is that Peter Schiff was genuinely bullish on Bitcoin when he first discovered it. Then he met bitcoiners, realized they were the most insufferable people on the planet, and decided he could never become one of them.

How It started vs. how it's going

The web3 playbook so far has been solving problems web2 already solved, making the experience 5x worse, then wrapping it in "decentralized" and "permissionless" and hoping nobody notices.

There's clearly a few momentum leaders. $HYPE, $ZEC, $TAO and $FET looking strong as hell. The market is getting more selective and liquidity is concentrating in fewer coins. If you're not being selective you're probably going to get rekt.

The bull thesis for crypto is simple. Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

ETH narrative graveyard: → The Flippening (never) → Ultrasound money (lol) → Digital oil (nope) → Backbone of the on-chain economy (L2s ate it) → Institutional DeFi hub (still waiting) Every cycle a new story. Every cycle the same result.

AI is either going to lead to mass burnout from people constantly chasing the next new thing or 500 half finished projects that never ship. there is no in between

Most crypto isn’t valuable because of real demand. It’s valuable because people hope someone else will pay more later. That’s very different from blockchain infrastructure, which actually may have trillion-dollar utility: tokenized settlement, 24/7 markets, programmable assets,
