EXHIBIT 99.1

## Oblong Taps $TAO Expert Siam Kidd to Lead Strategic Advisory Committee and Accelerate Decentralized AI Expansion
***DSV Fund CIO joins to scale Oblong***'***s $TAO treasury into the leading public vehicle for decentralized AI***

***Kidd brings institutional expertise to unlock value across Bittensor***'***s $1B+ AI subnet ecosystem and ignite next wave of growth***

**Denver, CO** – **August 5, 2025** – Oblong (Nasdaq:OBLG), dedicated to advancing decentralized artificial intelligence through strategic treasury investments in Bittensor ($TAO), is thrilled to announce the formation of its Advisory Committee, with Siam Kidd appointed as its inaugural member. This milestone underscores Oblong's commitment to building a robust platform for investors seeking exposure to the rapidly growing decentralized AI ecosystem.

● Siam is a globally recognized crypto investor, trader, and thought leader with over 21 years of experience in financial markets, including M&A and hedge fund management.

● As Co-Founder and Chief Investment Officer of DSV Fund, the world's first hedge fund exclusively dedicated to Bittensor ($TAO), Kidd has pioneered institutional-grade strategies for decentralized AI investments. His leadership has positioned DSV to capitalize on $TAO's explosive growth within Bittensor's subnet ecosystem, which now drives over 50 million daily AI inferences and a combined subnet market cap nearing $1 billion.

● A former RAF pilot, Kidd brings a disciplined, data-driven approach to navigating volatile markets. His deep expertise in $TAO's tokenomics and subnet operations enables him to craft strategies that maximize Bittensor's potential as the "FTSE100 of decentralized AI," framing it as a scalable, censorship-resistant alternative to centralized AI giants.

"Decentralized AI is reshaping the future of technology, and Bittensor is at the forefront of this revolution," said Kidd. "I'm excited to join Oblong's Advisory Committee to help build a treasury strategy that captures the diverse potential of this ecosystem, delivering value to investors while advancing open-source innovation."

The Advisory Committee will provide strategic guidance on optimizing Oblong's $TAO-focused treasury, identifying high-impact investment opportunities in development teams on the Bittensor platform, known as subnets, and fostering partnerships within the decentralized AI space. Kidd's appointment signals Oblong's dedication to establishing credibility and delivering long-term value for retail and institutional investors.

"Siam's expertise and vision make him the ideal first member of our Advisory Committee," said Pete Holst CEO of Oblong. "His proven track record in leveraging Bittensor's ecosystem will guide our $TAO treasury strategy, positioning Oblong as a premier vehicle for investors in the decentralized AI revolution."

Oblong is actively expanding its Advisory Committee to include additional experts in AI, blockchain, and finance, further strengthening its strategic position.

**About Oblong, Inc.** 

Oblong (Nasdaq: OBLG) is building a robust cryptocurrency treasury focused on decentralized artificial intelligence (AI) and the acquisition of $TAO, the native cryptocurrency of Bittensor, a decentralized blockchain network for machine learning and AI. By leveraging the power of decentralized AI, Oblong aims to provide investors with unparalleled exposure to the future of open-source intelligence. The Company also provides innovative video collaboration and network solutions, centered around our patented Mezzanine™ product line and managed services.

## Exhibit 99.2

EXHIBIT 99.2

**Oblong Deploys $8M in Fully Staked $TAO to Capitalize on Decentralized AI Surge**

***Strategic initial $8M $TAO position staked through top validator to support the ecosystem and compound returns.***

***Oblong becomes a high-leverage public proxy for Bittensor***'***s AI ecosystem and AI commodity market.***

***Driving yield, scale, and upside across crypto***'***s most explosive decentralized AI networks.***

**Denver, CO** – **August 7, 2025** – Oblong (Nasdaq: OBLG), leading the charge in innovative treasury strategies, today announces it has now invested $8 million in Bittensor ($TAO), fully staked with a trusted main validator. This bold move underscores Oblong's unwavering belief in decentralized and distributed AI as a game-changer, enabling global innovators to build open-source intelligence without centralized gatekeepers.

In Bittensor, staking means putting $TAO to work to support the network's operations and reward top AI innovators, much like how Ethereum investors stake tokens to secure the blockchain and earn profits. Unlike Ethereum, Bittensor's staking directly fuels a global AI marketplace, driving breakthroughs in every AI silo from serverless compute, multi-modal AI to advanced text prompting and reasoning akin to a "decentralized ChatGPT". By staking its entire $TAO position, Oblong reinvests in this ecosystem, strengthening innovation and aligning with its vision of a decentralized AI future.

"Our $8 million $TAO investment, fully staked for strong returns, shows our commitment to a decentralized AI revolution," said Pete Holst, CEO of Oblong. "Our goal is to build wealth for investors while advancing a global AI community."

Oblong will continue to evaluate additional $TAO purchases on a weekly basis. The Company is also exploring partnerships within the Bittensor ecosystem to potentially develop technology offerings, further aligning its operational and treasury strategies. Transparent updates on treasury performance, including staking yields and token holdings, will be provided in Oblong's Q2 2025 financial results and at upcoming investor conferences.
