Bittensor$248.25's subnet 3 team has successfully trained a 4 billion parameter LLaMA model using completely distributed computing, according to a post by Grayscale. The achievement highlights Bittensor$248.25's capability to coordinate decentralized AI training at scale, a key validation of its subnet infrastructure for distributed machine learning workloads.

Grayscale's comparison of top 20 cryptocurrencies from 2018 to April 2026 reveals significant market shifts: TRON$0.3407, Dogecoin$0.10364, and Bitfinex's Leo token have entered the top 20, while earlier leaders like IOTA, XEM, and Nano have exited.

Bittensor$248.25 has successfully trained a 72-billion parameter language model using a permissionless network architecture rather than centralized data centers—a claimed first at this scale. The achievement highlights the practical viability of decentralized AI compute and may support continued institutional interest in TAO as an AI infrastructure play.

Grayscale notes that digital asset treasuries (DATs) like MicroStrategy, which traded at discounts to their underlying crypto holdings throughout 2025, are now seeing those discounts compress. The shift signals improving market pricing efficiency for crypto treasury shares as institutional adoption of DAT strategies matures.
