How the Top 20 basket works
Spread your exposure across the subnet market, with risk managed position by position.
The 20 eligible active subnets with the largest market cap are the candidates. When the ranking changes, the list changes with it.
The basket only suggests candidates. A rules-based risk engine decides what to buy, how much and when to sell. The same rules apply to every wallet. Entries are spread over time, and the engine can decide not to buy at all.
What you get
- The 20 largest subnets
- Stop-loss on every position
- Gains locked as prices rise
Who is Top 20 Market Cap for?
- TAO holders who want broad exposure to the subnet market.
- Anyone who would rather not bet on a handful of names.
- Investors who want every position protected by a stop-loss.
How every position is protected
A rules-based risk engine decides what to buy, how much and when to sell. The same rules apply to every wallet.
- Each position is sized so that about 1% of your wallet is at risk.
- Every position gets a stop-loss that adapts to the subnet’s volatility and only ever moves up.
- As a position gains, its stop rises to lock in part of the gain.
- Positions are watched around the clock, and a position is sold when its stop is hit.
- TAO that is not in a position stays on Root, where it keeps earning staking rewards.
A stop-loss limits losses but cannot remove them: in a thin market, a sale can fill below the stop price.

Questions about Top 20 Market Cap
Short answers to what people ask before they start.
Which subnets are in the Top 20 Market Cap strategy?
The 20 largest eligible Bittensor subnets by market cap. The list changes as subnets grow or shrink, and the current subnets are shown on this page when they are available.
How is Top 20 different from Top 10?
Top 20 starts from a longer list, so it reaches beyond the very largest subnets and spreads your exposure wider. The risk engine, the stop-loss and the profit lock work the same way in both. Broader exposure does not remove risk: subnet tokens can fall together.
Does Stakao buy all 20 subnets?
Not necessarily. The basket only suggests candidates, and the risk engine decides which ones to buy, how much to put in each and when. Entries are spread over time, and the engine can decide not to buy at all.
