"AI" is a stack of components working together:
When these layers integrate, you get the systems people call intelligence.
128 sub-networks make up Bittensor.
Each subnet is a market-based factory, coordinating miners to produce a digital commodity and rewarding the best outputs.
These commodities can include:
Compute, distributed training, fine-tuning, inference, data, labels, synthetic data, evaluations, ranking, RL environments, agents, vision, audio, storage, privacy tooling, VPNs, search, forecasting, and prediction markets.
This weekend at @frontiertower, builders at the @FundingCommons hackathon will be designing new subnets for the sovereign AI infra stack.
Bittensor (TAO) subnets are generating revenue, serving enterprise clients, and producing research that passes academic peer review
Our first Bittensor report (I’ll link below) sheds light on five subnets that are demonstrating traction, with real world product market fit:

If you TAO pill yourself next year, it'll be too late
Follow @KhalaResearch and turn notis on to remain up to date, we have a lot more in the pipeline so stay tuned
The algo did not kill CT.
Influencers that promoted the shittiest of shitcoins to their audience in exchange for allocations in those projects so they could then dump on their audience for the last few years are the ones who killed CT.
Why?
- Bittensor = the most established coordination layer with 128 subnets (startups) innovating in cutting edge tech (vibecoding agents, prediction, 3D, security, quantum computing, DeSci, and more)
- Subnets widely acknowledged and used by researchers & contributors (Google Deepmind talents, Top ML engineers)
- Incentive distribution mechanism changes the way AI startups raise funds & garner talents (TAO emissions/miner incentives)
- Recent change in emission structure incentivizes teams that can attract net TAO inflow, further pushing teams to commercialize their intelligence and find PMF
- Yuma tripling down on Bittensor ecosystem, Grayscale taking more stakes & launching ETFs, TAO DATs deploying more capital, Bittensor-focused funds on the rise
- Defi on Bittensor starting to bloom — tokenization of future subnet owners emissions, OTC desks, and Bitstarter emerging as the launchpad for Bittensor. All of this reduce the need from subnet owners & miners to sell alpha tokens to continue running their ops.
- Alpha tokens starting to get listed on CEX & DEX — MEXC listed Hippius and Chutes, + incoming alpha tokens on Base.
- We're seeing trends of breakout product/inference — Chutes as #1 inference provider on OpenRouter, Ridges outperformance of their vibe-coding agents, Sportstensor official liquidity provider partner of Polymarket, Synth road to being the best prediction market HFT.
- TAO Halving next month will drastically shift the dynamic for all participants — 7,200 TAO of daily emission cut to 3,600
- Emission halved = scarcity of supply across the board for TAO and alpha subnet tokens. Most quality subnets price will push up 2x+ due to the scarcity (demand & supply dynamics)
- Some subnets price might not push up. This will result in miners' margin collapse which will lead to miners churning from those subnets because the mining incentives < cost of compute
- Consolidation of AI Infrastructure, Middleware, Marketplaces, and Applications positions Bittensor as the best ecosystem to benefit from Decentralized AI wave coming next year
Covering more on this + the Crypto AI landscape across the entire stack in the upcoming "Beginner's Guide to Crypto AI Landscape" article dropping later today.
People still don’t know the majority of global open-source LLM inference in powered by bittensor $TAO…
Everybody uses it: in cursor, clone, janitor AI, https://t.co/WKD9Oi74RQ, kilo code, open code, roo code.
They just don’t know Bittensor is the backend infra of it all.
This is @hamzafpl_'s star team of the week ⭐️
This 112-pointer is worth a GAMEWEEK RANK OF 94 🤯
I don't think we've ever seen a top 100 GW rank in the #Mediocre64. Simply phenomenal 🔥
And that's even with Dorgu's nul points!
Alderete and Doku ⚡
Sensational work 👏👏👏
It keeps getting better for our Qualifier leader @jamieyeo1985, now on the verge of the top 10k 👏
But we wrap with one of the most astonishing GW scores we’ve ever seen… 112 points for @hamzafpl_, a full 16 points clear of the next highest in any of our community leagues! ⭐
@here4impact@Bitrecs sn122 cool and unique idea in Bittensor great job behind the scenes barely anyone mentioned it! worth to mention its still in testing and iimproving phase I think soon will be ready to show the results

@shaunking Humanity will set their differences aside to unify against murdering starving children.
This is the clearest fight between good and evil we’ve ever seen.
