Specialist Agents
The TAO council replaces the generic BTC/ETH agent personas with 6 specialists calibrated for Bittensor-specific intelligence:| Agent | Domain |
|---|---|
SUBNET_ORACLE | On-chain Bittensor: subnet count, staking ratio, emission rate, validator Nakamoto coefficient |
MACRO_SAGE | Global macro environment: DXY, US10Y, risk-on/off regime, Fed tone |
AI_NARRATIVE | AI sector sentiment: NVDA, BOTZ/IRBO ETF flows, GitHub commit velocity |
MOMENTUM_HUNTER | Price momentum: TAO/BTC ratio trend, RSI, EMA proximity, 4H/1D bias |
LIQUIDITY_GUARDIAN | Order-book and on-chain liquidity: Kraken depth, volume surge, stablecoin flows |
RISK_WARDEN | Tail-event detection: manipulation flags, ETF event windows, institutional rebalancing |
Risk Flags
Risk flags are raised by RISK_WARDEN and LIQUIDITY_GUARDIAN during deliberation. One or more flags in the response does not automatically block an entry — the Chief Judge weighs flags against confidence scores. However,LIQUIDITY_RISK
in combination with a low liquidityDepthUsd typically results in an AVOID
or HOLD ruling.
| Flag | Trigger |
|---|---|
LIQUIDITY_RISK | Gate 0 liquidity probe returns INSUFFICIENT |
MANIPULATION_RISK | Volume spike without matching price or depth confirmation |
INSUFFICIENT_DATA | One or more critical signals unavailable (e.g. taostats.io timeout) |
ETF_EVENT_WINDOW | Upcoming BTC or crypto ETF event within ±48h (macro contagion risk) |
CENTRALIZED_AI_OVERHANG | Major centralized AI model release within ±72h (TAO narrative headwind) |
INSTITUTIONAL_REBAL | 13F filing window or end-of-quarter rebalancing detected |
