Bittensor drops 9.24% to $166.90 today

Highlights

Bittensor integrated VoidAI 2.0 and Chainlink's router and bridge, expanding its ecosystem to support multi-chain access and improve cross-chain liquidity and scalability.
TAO experienced a 50% supply halving announcement set for December 2025 and increased staking rates, but remains under significant selling pressure despite being listed on Upbit with new trading pairs.
TAO trades at $166.90, below MA-20, MA-50, and MA-200, facing heavy seller dominance with immediate resistance at $179.20 and a likely downside range of $150.00–$180.00 in the near term.

Broader selling persist despite ecosystem expansion and increased staking rates

Bittensor expanded its ecosystem through the integration of VoidAI 2.0, supporting multi-chain access for subnet tokens and leveraging Chainlink's router and bridge to improve liquidity and total value locked across blockchains. Recent upgrades enabled a shift from a single-chain to a multi-chain DeFi model, facilitating improved cross-chain liquidity, staking, and network scalability. TAO was listed on Upbit with new trading pairs and temporary safeguards for volatility, accompanied by a reported 50% supply halving in December 2025 and increased staking rates, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Downward momentum intensifies as resistance strengthens and indicators weaken

Technically, TAO is trading below all major moving averages, with the MA-20, MA-50, and MA-200 trending above the current price, indicating selling dominance in short-, medium-, and long-term timeframes. The Ichimoku Kijun line at $179.20 establishes immediate resistance, while support lies near $150.00. Technical momentum is negative: MACD signals a strong sell, the ADX suggests a weak, seller-driven trend, and both RSI and Stochastic RSI highlight ongoing selling pressure without reaching oversold territory. The Commodity Channel Index is neutral, and Bull/Bear Power remains overbought, with sellers controlling most intraday intervals.

Bearish risks outweigh rebound chances as volatility bands narrow

For the next five sessions, the typical volatility band for TAO is expected between $150.00 and $180.00. There is a high probability (over 80%) of further downside, while a sustained rebound is less likely in the short term. The baseline view anticipates sideways trading within this range. A bullish scenario requires clearing the $179.20 resistance and stabilizing above $180.00, while a bearish outcome would see the price breaking below $150.00 if intraday selling persists.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes that TAO is under sustained selling pressure across all timeframes and is unable to recover above its key moving averages. He sees recent ecosystem upgrades and staking changes as insufficient to offset the prevailing negative momentum and lack of bullish sentiment. The analyst remains focused on key technical levels — with $179.20 as resistance and $150.00 as crucial support. "Until TAO decisively reclaims $180.00, I remain skeptical of any short-term rebound."

Last time, analysts noted that Bittensor (TAO) is trading well below short-, medium-, and long-term moving averages, experiencing a sharp intraday decline and strong downside momentum as it hovers near session lows. Technical indicators, including bearish MACD, weak trend strength on the ADX, RSI moving toward oversold, and dominant seller activity, reinforce continued downside pressure despite expanded multi-chain utility in the ecosystem.
