Carbon wins Pitchtensor. 🏆
500 TAO raised in under 20 minutes.
Physics AI can turn days of simulation into seconds. @carbonphysicsai is building the tests that show engineers when they can trust the result.
Meet Carbon, headed for a Bittensor subnet ↓

“You’re not launching a company on Bittensor, you’re forming a network.”
Your miners will challenge your design choices. They’ll try to break what you build. Founders need to be ready for that.
At Exploit Summit’s incubator panel, Bitstarter co-founder @macrozack explained what founders need to get right: what miners do, what validators score, and what the subnet produces.
If you can’t explain that clearly, how can anyone back what you’re building?
Watch Chris’s take below.
We're working with @MacrocosmosAI to help teams test their incentive mechanisms with real miners on Apex before launching a subnet.
Listen to the full Space for how this could shorten the path to launch and what's next for Bitstarter.
How can you tell if an incentive mechanism will survive mainnet?
By launching it on @Apex_SN1 first.
Join @macrozack and @macrocrux at 5pm to discover how our upcoming teams will be accelerated on SN1.

Apex was built to hillclimb intelligence.
Our agent harness allows anyone to launch a live incentive mechanism in subnet 1 without writing a line of code. We've reduced the time to create competitions from weeks to minutes. Once live, Apex competitions are mined by a swarm of agents from around the world.
We've solved access to decentralized intelligence.
Now it's time to ask the big questions.
We're very excited to partner with @bitstarterAI as the home of many teams with big ideas.
Join us on Friday for a live community call and AMA.
Check our Apex’s competition page to see what’s possible:

Apex Accelerator: SN1 x Bitstarter
Great concept. But will it work on mainnet?
Now, our teams can find out - testing their incentive mechanism and getting results from miners on @Apex_SN1 - all before they launch.
Full reveal this Friday 16th with @macrocrux - coming soon⚡��
2,000+ TAO staked on Root through the Bitstarter validator.
That stake backs the teams building on Bittensor.
Thank you to everyone staking with us.
$TAO holders: join them, stake with the Bitstarter validator:

Cascade’s model outperforms Toto 2.0 4M on TIME MASE and TIME CRPS:
- With just 15.4% as many training tokens
- Using only synthetic miner-generated data
- In only 58 days
Let’s break down what TIME MASE and CRPS are, and why they matter.
One week ago, I introduced @carbonphysicsai on stage @ExploitSummit - who we placed in SN116, now ranking as a top 5 subnet by price on Bittensor.
One year ago, I launched @bitstarterAI - promising building a community-backed incubator capable of powering teams to the top.
Nine launches later, we're finally getting there.
Thanks to everyone who pitched, pledged, and judged (whether on-stage or otherwise) - none of this would have happened without you.
Breakdown of @markjeffrey hashrate on @cascade_sn91
Aim: To tackle time series modelling.
LLMs have easily grown due to the abundance of data.
Time series data is limited due to having one path through history.
Cascade aim to build both the time series model and produce the synthetic data that it can be trained on.
- Examples of the effects on time series data include
- Trends / Seasonality / Main Reversion / Abrupt news.
- Cascade can become a universal prediction engine, due to a lot of similarities within the patterns that build up the model the same way different chords can make different songs (a nice comparison might I say by @macrozack )
- The competition is in favour of smaller companies since the playing field is the same due to the amounts of existing data.
- This model can mimic similar prediction subnets like 18, 50 but more as a general prediction.

We said we'd work in public.
SN87 is live on Bittensor testnet, the code is open (MIT), and you can verify the chain proof yourself. Come build, mine, or break it.

Raised 500t on Tuesday. Running SN116 by Sunday.
Bitstarter, you chose Carbon @ExploitSummit - together, we got them from pledge to protocol within the week 🚀
“Trust is the next bottleneck in physics AI.”
@carbonphysicsai won Pitchtensor 2026 on Tuesday.
If you missed it, here’s @RyanBequette on the problem their subnet will set out to solve, live at @exploitsummit ↓
“So trust is the next bottleneck here in physics AI.”
Fast predictions only matter if engineers can rely on them. At Pitchtensor, @RyanBequette explains the problem @carbonphysicsai is tackling: proving where a model works, under which conditions, and where its limits are.
“Access, alpha, and assurance.”
@macrozack explains what @bitstarterAI aims to give new subnet founders: access to experienced builders, insights and hands-on contributions, and confidence that their idea can work. From Pitchtensor at Exploit Summit.
“You'll see them in real time getting pledges online and also in the audience.”
You decide who to back. @macrozack explains how Pitchtensor teams compete through @bitstarterAI, with a subnet slot and pledged TAO to get the winner building.
Carbon vs Fugal. Who will you back?
Pitchtensor head-to-head pledging is open @exploitsummit.
Read the pinned terms, choose the team you want to back and pledge through the official page:
