Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions, answered here

What is MegaTAO?

+

MegaTAO is a perpetual futures protocol, purpose built for the Bittensor ecosystem. It is the only way to long, short and hedge Alpha exposure.

Is this a subnet?

+

No, MegaTAO isn't a subnetโ€”and that's by design. We've chosen not to bid for a slot to avoid distorting Bittensor's reward mechanics. Instead, we're building on the Bittensor EVM with TAO as collateral and Alpha for exposure.

How does it work?

+

MegaTAO uses a vault model. When you trade, you don't need to hold the underlying Alpha token - positions are synthetic, with the protocol vault acting as counterparty. All collateral and settlement happens in TAO.

What can I trade?

+

MegaTAO beta users will be able to trade an initial set of Alpha tokens via perpetual contracts. All collateral is in TAO, with up to 3x leverage to start.

What about fees?

+

There are zero deposit or withdrawal fees on MegaTAO. The protocol runs on minimal trading and liquidation fees designed to stay competitive while supporting unique markets.

Why not just use existing exchanges?

+

We're not here to bring "all of crypto" into Bittensor. Our focus is narrow and deep: core ecosystem liquidity for Alpha traders, subnet owners, and those betting on the intelligence economy.

How is this different from other protocols?

+

MegaTAO is purpose-built for Bittensor. We're not raising VC dollars - this project will grow through community support and ownership, just like Bittensor itself.

When can I start trading?

+

MegaTAO beta is launching in November. Join our Discord and follow us on Twitter to be among the first to access the platform.
