General TAO Ventures has officially rebranded to General Tensor (@generaltensor). The team, strategy, and focus remain unchanged, with continued emphasis on building decentralized intelligence infrastructure within the Bittensor ecosystem.
In the announcement, General Tensor outlined its track record and current footprint.
The team has been active in Bittensor since 2023, owns Subnet 35 (0xMarkets), and maintains top-tier mining positions across major subnets. It recently acquired the 21RoundTable validator, which continues to be operated by Wild Sage Labs, and is incubating Subnet 23 (Trishool AI). The group has also played a role in partnerships and launches, including Cartha on Subnet 35 and the Chainlink-integrated Rubicon bridge. On the organizational side, General Tensor closed pre-seed and seed funding rounds and expanded its team from three to fourteen people.
The rebrand signals an ambition to operate as a broad, vertically integrated builder within decentralized AI, taking inspiration from historically influential “General” companies that shaped earlier technological eras. The team teased unified brand updates and a major announcement before the end of January 2026.
The move was well received across the ecosystem, with partners and community members pointing to the more mature, institutional direction of the new brand.
Overall, the rebrand positions General Tensor as a long-term infrastructure player in Bittensor, with expectations of deeper ecosystem involvement and larger initiatives in the near term.
