[Almanac @almnc_ai]

Mantic just raised $25M to scale their AI forecasting system after it finished ahead of all 676 human participants in the 2026 Metaculus Cup.

AI systems, like Alma, dominated the top of the competition.

Capital is starting to realise a few extra points of accuracy is the difference between a $375k war-risk premium and $15M on one tanker. Between a decent year and an exceptional one for funds, traders, treasurers and underwriters.

[𝗗𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗗 𝗕𝗢𝗡𝗚𝗢 @DreadBong0]

I can see why people are comparing $TAO to $ZEC

Both have #Bitcoin like scarcity.. 21 million max supply and halvings

#Zcash is built around the idea that financial privacy shouldn't depend on permission from an institution..

#Bittensor is built around the idea that advancing intelligence shouldn't depend on permission from a handful of powerful AI labs..

Both use scarce digital assets to incentivise participation in open networks

Yes.. Different technology and different markets

But the same underlying principles..

Privacy shouldn't require permission.. Neither should the right to build and advance intelligence

One is about keeping financial freedom in the hands of individuals

The other is about keeping the future of intelligence open to everyone

$ZEC and $TAO have more in common than people realise

Congrats to the team on a tremendous milestone.

[Barry Silbert🎗️ @BarrySilbert]

@fintechfrank bittensor is so difficult to explain. but once you go down the rabbit hole and really dig in and meet the people, you come to appreciate it is completely different than anything in crypto…and the most ambitious thing out there

[Score @webuildscore]

No one else can do this.

While every other CV platform is still selling another fine-tuning dashboard

We’re about to let anyone order actual frontier lab work in a few clicks.

The kind only Bittensor miners can deliver.

Model Foundry is coming to Score Studio.

Zero compute? Zero data? Zero ML team? Doesn’t matter.

You describe the hard vision problem, our miners build the production model, you pay inside the Studio.

That spend goes straight into SN44 buyback + burn.

Money never leaves the subnet.

No gatekeepers.
No bottlenecks.
Just open frontier vision for everyone.

Check out the Model Foundry flow 👇

[Shizzy @ShizzyUnchained]

The more I look at @green_compute_, the more its Alphanomics feel backwards from normal crypto.

Customers pay for permanent GPUs → revenue buys ALPHA.
Miners sunk millions into hardware → multi-year paybacks → less reason to dump.
Demand outside crypto. Supply built to hold.

[xTAO - a Bittensor company @xtaohq]

In the latest Novelty Search, @Hippius_cloud SN75, decentralized cloud storage on Bittensor, shows how it turns Bittensor miners into S3-compatible cloud storage, with no egress fees for moving large models and datasets.

Hippius offers storage at a lower price per terabyte than Google Drive, iCloud, and Dropbox.

.@OKX unveiled OKX AI, with support from Opentensor Foundation.

OKX AI turns agent capabilities into onchain services, tasks, and reputation.

And Bittensor subnet APIs are coming soon, bringing subnet intelligence directly into the OKX AI Marketplace.

[Affine @affine_io]

Qwen3.6-35B-A3B now forms the new substrate beneath Affine's open arena.
By the very next day, the first champion had already been crowned. Following that, AFFINE-35B-III came along to break the frontier wide open:

Memory: 11.7 → 70.2
NavWorld: 33.8 → 48.3
SWE: 33.1 → 58.2
Terminal: 46.2 → 78.1

Two more champions have emerged since, each carrying performance further across the benchmarks.

The significance not only lies within the size of the jump, but also within what followed: successive champions continuing to build upon their new foundation, pushing the Pareto frontier outward.

The base changed.
The mechanism sharpened it.

[Minos @theminos_ai]

Our CUDA-native genome generation stack can now generate a whole synthetic genome in just under 20 minutes on eight H200 GPUs from @lium_io .

That's roughly 440x faster than the traditional CPU-bound workflows.

This opens the door to population-scale synthetic genome generation for benchmarking, variant calling evaluation, and genomic AI.

[Eric Nguyen @exnx]

Together with my co-founders Michael @MichaelPoli6, Stefano @Massastrello and Armin @athmsx, I am excited to announce @RadicalNumerics is emerging from stealth with a $50M seed round to build general biological intelligence.

We’re also sharing an early preview of our new model Omnii, the most powerful genome language model to date.

Omnii preview link:
https://t.co/ouikMtRVwf

At Radical Numerics, our mission is to master the code of life, and to drive the frontier of biological AI for both design and defense.

This is our dual mandate, which comes from something our own team helped make possible.

Our founding team trained Evo and Evo 2, the largest biological AI models (40B params) trained on DNA sequences. Trillions of tokens across all of life, from microbes to mammals. It’s fully open source, and created the field now known as generative genomics.

Last year, scientists used Evo to generate the world’s first complete genome from scratch using AI. Turns out it was a bacteriophage—a type of virus. It functioned in the real world, and in this case it was harmless. But for us, it was a clear turning point.

It showed that AI is no longer just analyzing biology. It is on the cusp of generating functional lifeforms. Eventually, AI will have the power to design and control life itself.

That should make all of us incredibly excited, and incredibly uneasy. (Anyone can design DNA with a new function, and have it synthesized and delivered, like something from Amazon Prime).

The same technology that will help us cure cancer is the very technology that might create the next global pandemic, or worse, allow the creation of bioweapons that can wipe out populations.

We believe these forces are inseparable. If you work on the frontier of biology, you have to build technology to safeguard it from its misuse. Existing biosecurity tools are sorely losing the arms race, relying on outdated “have I seen this exact thing before?” style algorithms.

We founded Radical Numerics to turn the tide.

And we can’t do that by training on textbooks and natural language. We must understand the language of biology from the raw physical data itself, to reason across every molecule and modality, from DNA to proteins.

The next frontier for AI goes far beyond chatbots or video generators to models that can understand and engineer life.

Today, we’re previewing Omnii, which is already far surpassing Evo 2, and will continue improving as we scale and add new modalities (training now).

1. For human health, Omnii can read and write whole genomes (more on writing later). It’s state of the art (SOTA) on detecting causal variants for disease, and can rank Alzheimer's mutations zero-shot. We’re partnering with a diagnostics company to use Omnii for early cancer detection (pancreatic and multi-cancer).

2. For defense, Omnii is SOTA at detecting AI-generated pathogens. We benchmarked existing detection tools, and they simply can’t detect the AI-generated ones (“deepfake viruses”). We’re partnering with a US national lab to pilot Omnii for detecting the next pandemic, both natural and AI-generated.

We have a data center full of Blackwells in construction now to build the most powerful biological AI models ever. This mission takes a new kind of AI lab that can actually scale on physical, biological data: new alignment research (mid/post training), scaling long context, building out mech interp teams to dissect what these models learn, new architectures and systems designs, all from the ground up.

Our team is made up of AI researchers and scientists from top labs and institutions (e.g. Stanford, MIT, Google DeepMind), but more importantly, we all share the belief that this is the most important challenge of our lifetime. If you feel similarly, we are hiring. We aim to bring the brightest minds in AI and science together to save lives.

Thanks to our partners on this journey, led by Emergence Capital @emergencecap, with Obvious Ventures @obviousvc, Triatomic @TriatomicCap
, and Patrick Collison @patrickc. Our advisors include Eric Horvitz @erichorvitz, CSO of Microsoft, Chris Re @HazyResearch of Stanford, George Church @geochurch of Harvard, and Andrew Weber @AndyWeberNCB, former Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear, Chemical and Biological Defense Programs.

🚨Early version of my JMP! 🚨

To what extent is the contact between corporate lobbyists and federal government officials publicly disclosed?

In other words, how big is the market for "shadow lobbying"?

The Lobbying Disclosure Act mandates quarterly disclosure of lobbying "contacts" subject to many caveats. Watchdogs have long complained about lacunae in the LDA, but there is little evidence of the size of shadow lobbying market.

In my JMP, I use 4.5 trillion pings from 179 million smartphones spatially merged to building shapefiles and observe movement between lobbyists' offices, corporate headquarter buildings, and the federal government in Washington DC.

See below: movement of lobbyists from corporate HQs to federal government buildings:
