How to buy Bittensor exposure
Virtune Bittensor ETP gives you TAO price exposure through a Nasdaq Stockholm security. At a broker offering VIRTAO, you can hold the investment without operating a Bittensor node or managing a personal TAO wallet.
Bittensor organises its work into specialised networks called subnets. They produce digital services, including AI responses, computing capacity and storage. Miners supply services and validators assess their contributions. TAO connects incentives across this system. What Bittensor is explains the participants and their roles.
Why buy Bittensor through an ETP?
The ETP makes TAO exposure available through a broker, without requiring you to register a subnet, run a validator or supply an AI service. Virtune holds the TAO backing the product in custody.
You own the security, which follows TAO's price. It does not pay you for supplying AI work, and it is not a portfolio of shares in the companies building those services.
Virtune holds TAO with a custodian as collateral for the ETP. The crypto-asset backs the security you own; it is not a personal coin balance in your name.
Buying through a broker
At your broker, the product can be found by its full name or the ISIN shown below. The broker's order page identifies the listing, trading currency, current buy and sell prices and applicable charges. If the broker offers several listings, they still refer to the same security where the ISIN is the same.
Virtune Bittensor ETP has ISIN SE0027098484 and Stockholm ticker VIRTAO. Nasdaq Stockholm is its only listing; trading began on 19 December 2025.
The Bittensor ETP product page brings together available brokers, product documents and current details. Account availability and tax treatment depend on your country and account type; the exchange listing alone does not establish either.
Costs of buying and holding the ETP
The management fee is deducted from the product's value over time. It is different from the costs of trading: the broker may charge commission, the buy and sell prices have a spread, and a currency conversion charge can apply when the trade uses a different currency from your cash account. The table below separates these costs.
Costs when buying Virtune Bittensor ETP
| Cost | Charged by | When |
|---|---|---|
| Brokerage commission | Broker | On every purchase and sale |
| Difference between bid and ask price | Market | On every trade |
| Management fee, 1.95% per year | Issuer | Ongoing, from the product's value |
| Currency conversion | Broker, if applicable | If the product trades in another currency |
Risks to understand
Crypto-asset prices can move sharply, so the value of the ETP can fall. Crypto markets continue trading when stock exchanges are closed; the next ETP quote can therefore differ substantially from the previous close.
The security also carries issuer and custody risks. If Virtune cannot meet its obligations, what investors recover depends on the crypto-assets held as collateral and the process for enforcing their rights. Problems with custody or delays in recovery can affect the outcome. These product risks are separate from the convenience of holding the investment at a broker.
The crypto ETP buying guide explains the purchase process and the difference between a security and a crypto-asset holding.
