one of the dumbest/simple ideas we’ve had actually came from listening to builders in the TAO ecosystem:
take the
$TAO rewards you earn from holding
$BUTT and turn them into actual participation in Bittensor.
bridge to native TAO.
stake to validators.
put the rewards back into the network.
simple. obvious. probably the cleanest alignment loop we’ve found so far.
we also looked at
@Bitcast_network and actually pitched a small experiment around Proof of Cheeks, but that path is off the table for now
so now I’m asking the big brains:
what else are we missing?
what other ways can a meme/community like Buttensor turn attention + TAO rewards into real participation inside Bittensor?
