Don't sleep on Bittensor $TAO. Big things happening

After discussions with several stakeholders, Aave service providers, @Ether_fi, @KelpDAO, @LayerZero_Core, @compound_xyz, and others have submitted a governance proposal to the @arbitrum DAO requesting the release of ETH frozen by the Arbitrum Security Council following the April 18 rsETH incident. If released, the funds will be directed into DeFi United, a coordinated cross-protocol recovery effort aimed at restoring rsETH backing and remediating impairment of rsETH for users. This contribution would meaningfully advance the path to resolution as others confirm their commitments. The proposal is open for review, and we welcome feedback from the Arbitrum community. forum.arbitrum.foundation/t/…

Using @FireblocksHQ @ledger_business or @dfnsHQ and holding $Tao ? Finally you can delegate directly from custody using the @ColossusItaly Institutional Hub.

Check out our latest partnership with @GlobalStake
Staking is easy. Doing it at an institutional scale isn’t. Together with @ColossusItaly, we’re focused on what sits behind the scenes: custody, execution, and infrastructure.
