Hash Rate - Ep 118 - Siam Kidd of DSV $TAO Hedge Fund

Hash Rate pod - Bitcoin, AI, DePIN, DeFi

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. TAO's Asymmetric Upside: Bitensor is presented as a once-in-a-generation investment, with institutional demand poised to significantly reprice TAO.
  2. Subnets are AI Startups: View subnets as individual AI startups; their success will drive TAO's value, but their tokenomics mean TAO itself is the primary value accrual mechanism for large price moves.
  3. Liquidity is King (for Subnets): The growth of subnet valuations and broader participation hinges on solving liquidity depth issues within subnet pools.

Oxford Professor: "AIs are strange new minds"

Machine Learning Street Talk

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. AI's Reality Hack: Supervised learning allows AIs to understand the world via language alone, a game-changer forcing us to rethink intelligence beyond sensory input.
  2. The Autonomy Trap: The rise of agentic, personalized AIs that act for us threatens unforeseen systemic chaos and could amplify individuals' most dangerous beliefs.
  3. Our Faustian Pact with AI: We're trading authenticity and control for AI-driven convenience, risking a "gradual disempowerment" where human agency is systematically diminished.

Crypto Stress Test: Fees, Volatility, and Chain Performance

Lightspeed

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. Evaluate L1s and app-specific protocols not just on throughput, but on their explicit value capture mechanisms.
  2. Prioritize protocols that directly align user activity and protocol revenue with token value, as seen in Hyperliquid's buyback model, over those with less direct or diluted value accrual to the native asset.
  3. Chains that can maintain low, stable fees during peak demand and clearly articulate how their native token captures value from growing on-chain activity will attract both users and capital.

The Dogecoin Community Might Sh**t me for Saying This...

The DCo Podcast

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The ongoing global distrust in centralized financial systems fuels a search for decentralized alternatives, yet the crypto market's focus on "store of value" assets like Bitcoin risks missing the original intent of a truly global, fair means of exchange, a gap Dogecoin aims to fill.
  2. Re-evaluate digital asset utility beyond speculative store-of-value narratives, considering projects actively pursuing frictionless, low-cost means of exchange.
  3. The long-term viability of decentralized finance hinges on its ability to deliver practical, everyday utility, not just investment returns. This means projects focused on transactional efficiency could gain significant ground in the coming 6-12 months.
