Oblong (OBLG), a Nasdaq-listed IT solutions company, has significantly expanded its foray into the world of decentralized AI by purchasing 5025 TAO tokens for $1.65 million. This investment, made last week at an average price of $328.38 per TAO, signals Oblong's commitment to its Bittensor (TAO)-based artificial intelligence (AI) and TAO reserve strategy, as previously announced after a successful $7.5 million capital raise. This strategic move underscores the growing interest in leveraging Bittensor's decentralized network for AI development. By accumulating TAO, Oblong aims to participate in and contribute to this burgeoning ecosystem. The investment could position Oblong to explore innovative AI applications and potentially integrate them into its existing IT solutions offerings. ```
