FAQs

Yes. Bittensor (TAO) is treated as a Virtual Digital Asset under the Income-tax Act, so buying, holding, and selling are allowed, though it is not legal tender. India regulates crypto as a taxable, speculative asset, and platforms serving Indian users must be registered with FIU-IND under anti-money-laundering rules.

To buy Bittensor for the first time, sign up on CoinDCX, complete KYC with your PAN and Aadhaar, deposit INR through UPI or IMPS, then open the TAO market and confirm your order. Most first-time buyers complete all four steps on the same day.

Add INR to your CoinDCX account by choosing UPI as the payment method, entering the amount, and approving the request in your UPI app. Once the balance reflects, open the TAO market, enter your INR amount, and confirm. UPI deposits are usually credited within minutes.

You do not need to buy a whole TAO, which has a high unit price. It supports fractional investing, so a small INR order buys a fraction of a coin. The exact per-order minimum is shown on the CoinDCX order screen before you confirm.

Yes. Even though one TAO costs far more than ₹100, it is divisible, so ₹100 buys a small fraction. Open the app, search for Bittensor, tap Buy, enter the rupee amount, and confirm. Given how volatile it is, only use money you can afford to lose.

TAO can be bought against the rupee on FIU-IND registered Indian exchanges that list it. Because its price varies widely across sources, always check the live rate. Judge any platform on FIU-IND registration under the PMLA, ISO/IEC certification, a direct INR pair, and custody practices such as cold storage and Proof of Reserves.

Buying and holding TAO is not taxed. Selling or swapping your tokens triggers a flat 30% tax plus 4% cess on profits, resulting in an effective tax rate of 31.2% under the Income-tax Act, 2025. Additionally, a 1% TDS is deducted from the total trade value upon transfer under Section 393(1) of the Act. Crypto losses cannot be set off against other income. Report gains in Schedule VDA and confirm your position with a chartered accountant.

Bittensor provides exposure to decentralized AI infrastructure with Bitcoin-like tokenomics, but the asset carries market volatility and technical execution risks. Align your position size with your personal financial goals and risk tolerance, and treat any purchase decision as your own.

Bittensor is an open-source decentralized network that creates an economic marketplace for machine intelligence. It uses independent subnets where machine learning miners produce intelligence outputs and validators score their quality, distributing TAO rewards to top-performing models using consensus mechanisms.

Bittensor adopts a tokenomic model inspired by Bitcoin: a capped supply of 21 million TAO, programmatic halving events every four years, and a fair launch mechanism with zero pre-mine. Staking locks a significant portion of circulating coins to secure subnet consensus.
