Bittensor (TAO) has made a sharp recovery from its February lows, climbing from $154 to around $330. The move has brought renewed attention to the token and the broader AI-focused network it powers.
On-chain data from CryptoQuant shows the 90-day Spot Taker Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) flipped to buy-side dominance after the $154 floor. Weeks of consistent green bars replaced what had been months of sell pressure, pointing to real buyer activity in spot markets rather than speculative futures bets.
Price is just now catching up to the AI hype around $TAO.

TAO’s market cap has climbed back to roughly $3.17–$3.53 billion. Over 24 hours, about 1.79 million TAO changed hands, equal to 18.68% of circulating supply. That is unusually high activity for a token of this size.
The token’s 30-day gain stands at over 105%, with 14-day and 7-day gains of 58% and 21% respectively. A sharp pullback mid-week sent the price down 17% from recent highs before a partial recovery.
Ecosystem Growth Backs the Rally
Beyond TAO itself, the wider Bittensor ecosystem is showing strength. The total market cap of subnet tokens has risen to $1.4 billion, with nearly every subnet token recording double-digit gains over the past 30 days.
The percentage of TAO staked to subnets has exceeded 33% of total TAO staked. That figure reflects growing participation in the subnet economy and suggests confidence beyond short-term price trading.
Technical Signals Warn of Downside Risk
CryptoQuant analyst Maartunn flagged that spot volumes, futures volume, and retail participation are all rising at the same time. “When everything heats up at once… risk increases,” he noted.
CoinMarketCap data shows TAO surged roughly 160% into a golden cross on March 26. Historical fractal analysis of past golden crosses on TAO suggests average corrections of around 40% within five to six weeks, which would put price near the $200 level.
Intraday RSI sits near 62, and the 7-day RSI is around 58. These levels show bullish bias but no full reset into oversold territory.
