We show that if K is any knot whose Ozsváth–Szabó concordance invariant τ (K) is positive, the all‐positive Whitehead double of any iterated Bing double of K is topologically but not smoothly slice. We also show that the all‐positive Whitehead double of any iterated Bing double of the Hopf link (for example, the all‐positive Whitehead double of the Borromean rings) is not smoothly slice; it is not known whether these links are topologically slice.
