TAO HOLDER MONITOR01 / 06
Four findings from the pilot
- 01
The Top 100 coldkeys hold 5.97 million TAO, equal to 53.55% of issued supply.
- 02
The largest coldkey holds approximately 737,822 TAO, or 6.61% of issued supply.
- 03
Coldkeys between 100 and 1,000 TAO collectively hold 1.569 million TAO.
- 04
Within that 100–1,000 cohort, 82.9% is staked in TAO-equivalent terms.
Focus areas
One monitor. Four lenses.
A repeatable framework for understanding how Bittensor’s coldkey distribution changes over time.
Distribution
Coldkey counts and TAO held across consistent balance tiers.
Concentration
Top 10, Top 100 and cumulative shares of issued TAO.
Staking
Free versus staked TAO across the coldkey distribution.
Change
Planned: monthly movement, bracket migration and long-term trends.
Why this exists
“Make Bittensor’s holder distribution transparent, understandable and independently verifiable.”
