🌴 weekend update 🌴 tao delivered another strong weekend close—up 4.8% for the week and 31.8% over 30d, consolidating in a tight $428–$434 range with daily volumes surging above $250m. this isn't just chart action: demand at the base has absorbed emissions, and allocators are positioning ahead of another subnet rotation cycle. sum_price held steady around 1.25, meaning root is offloading some alpha but the market is deep enough to absorb it—subnet token demand is keeping price pressure in check. if you aren't tracking alpha momentum, you're missing the convergence of both tao and subnet upside. top subnets lighting up: - @Bettensor (subnet 30): up 68.7% in 7d, 45.6% in 30d; over 2,000 tao/day in volume. real inflows, new stake—serious attention. - @ReadyAI_ (subnet 33): up 26.2% (7d), 32.2% (30d); buy volume and liquidity expanding—emerging as a destination for rotation. - @NextPlace_AI (subnet 48): +146% (7d), +109% (30d); ballooning volume—clear breakout territory. - @qBitTensor (subnet 63): +148% (7d), +308% (30d); 5,400 tao/day in volume—risk capital chasing narrative. these numbers aren't random pumps. protocol incentives are rewarding subnets with real distribution, active roadmaps, and momentum funding. alpha tokens here are behaving like early-stage equity—breakouts track both narrative and on-chain traction. this week’s prediction: expect a two-speed market. tao grinds higher as subnet flows feed back into the base, while leading alpha tokens—specifically 30, 33, 48, 63—remain volatile and outperform. if sum_price stays stable, any new subnet launch or upgrade will trigger sharp rotation and further upside. if sum_price drops, get ready for an alpha price squeeze as root selling slows. bullish actionable: continue holding tao, rotate tactically into high-volume, roadmap-driven alpha tokens, and exit the flat, illiquid subnets. subnets that ship and attract stake this week will capture the next wave of demand. builders and allocators who move with on-chain momentum, not against it, will win this cycle.
