Why Buy Bittensor?

Here are the main reasons why many Indonesians buy Bittensor:

1. Bringing AI and blockchain together:

Bittensor is designed as a protocol where AI contributors (miners/models) and validators can collaborate openly to create and evaluate machine intelligence.

This allows more democratic access to AI services and reduces the dominance of large companies.

2. Scarcity tokenomics, fixed TAO supply & “fair launch” model: 

TAO has a maximum supply of 21 million tokens, with no pre-mine or special allocation for early investors/insider investors; all are distributed through contributions to the network.

This approach provides a “relatively deflationary” structure that can support long-term value if network adoption grows. 

3. Incentives for contributors & validators:

Those who contribute (either as AI model providers or quality validators) are rewarded in TAO, thus motivating active contributions and growing the ecosystem with better quality AI models. 

4. Growth potential with AI adoption & decentralized AI future:

Since Bittensor offers a model where anyone can contribute to global AI and be rewarded, if the AI ​​& decentralization trend continues to grow, TAO could benefit from increased demand for AI services and broad community participation.
