OTC Investment: AdTao 21
Delighted to share that DSV took an OTC position in AdTAO (SN21) ahead of Proof of Talk. We got in early because we know where this business is heading. Combining the power of Bittensor with the size of the Google Ads market. AdTAO is real advertising intelligence built on Bittensor, led by an operator with […]
We’ve bought a subnet!
We’ve bought a subnet! A bit of news from our side, DSV has acquired Subnet 69 on Bittensor. Yes, the number is funny. No, we didn’t pick it. Here’s why we did it: There are 21 million TAO and only 128 subnet slots. That might increase, but slots are the scaffolding Bittensor is built on, […]
OTC Investment: Handshake 58
We’re excited to announce that DSV has invested in Handshake 58 (SN58) – the marketplace where AI agents discover services and skills across Bittensor.

Through the Handshake marketplace, agents can […]
OTC Investment: BitAds
We’re excited to announce we have completed an OTC investment into BitAds (SN16).The problem with online ads is simple:– Brands pay for clicks and impressions.– But sales are never guaranteed.

OTC Investment: Vericore
We’re excited to announce we have completed another OTC investment into Vericore (SN70).The problem is obvious: AI is flooding the internet with claims, narratives, and half-truths.

OTC Investment: FlameWire
We’re happy to announce we have increased our position in FlameWire (SN97) through another OTC deal. The problem is most apps still rely on centralised services just to read blockchain data. When those services fail, apps fail too. FlameWire solves this cleanly with one decentralised endpoint that routes each request to the best available node. […]
OTC Investment: Vericore
We’ve completed an OTC investment into Vericore (SN70) – the subnet building the evidence layer for truth on Bittensor. The problem is simple. AI is flooding the internet with claims, narratives, and noise. It’s getting harder to know what’s actually true. Vericore solves this by verifying claims at scale:– Miners find supporting and contradicting evidence– […]
OTC Investment: Bitcast
We are proud to have completed yet another OTC deal with Bitcast, our third to date. The team used the funds from previous OTC deals to accelerate development of the X incentive mechanism and their no code miner – both of which are now up and running and performing well. The team recently highlighted that […]
OTC Investment: Vidaio
We’ve completed an OTC investment into Vidaio (SN85) – a subnet turning video compression and upscaling into a real business, not a science project. Cutting file sizes by up to 95% with almost no quality loss is not a small upgrade. It’s a cost revolution for anyone streaming, storing, or moving video. Vidaio runs a […]
