Templar and Gradients Deliver Covenant72B Production-Ready DeAI Model
For a long time, “open-source AI” has meant something very specific. The weights are public, but everything that matters happens elsewhere. Training decisions, data pipelines, and refinement processes remain locked inside centralized teams and private infrastructure. Covenant72B challenges that model. Through a coordinated but fully decentralized collaboration between Templar (Subnet 3) and Gradients (Subnet 56),…
Vanta Network Rethinks Prop Trading with Bittensor
Over the last decade, financial markets have undergone a quiet but profound shift. Entire industries once built on trust, discretion, and opaque internal controls are being re-examined through a new lens. Transparency, verifiability, and user alignment are no longer optional, they are becoming the standard. Crypto exchanges were among the first to face this reckoning,…
Nodexo 2.0 Brings Verifiable GPU Computing to Bittensor With Ethereum Proof System
Nodexo just announced version 2.0, and it’s a complete rethinking of how decentralized GPU computing should work. Instead of another “AI platform” with hosted models and mystery features, Nodexo 2.0 focuses on one thing: providing verifiable, bare-metal GPU computing power with cryptographic proof that the work actually happened. The announcement, posted on December 17, 2025,…
How RESI is Redefining Real Estate’s Next Evolution With On-Chain Appraisals
Real estate remains one of the largest and most valuable asset classes in the world, yet its core transactional processes have changed little over decades. Property sales, valuations, and financing still rely heavily on manual workflows, discretionary decision making, and centralized intermediaries. While these systems function, they introduce inefficiencies, opacity, and cost at a scale…
DSV Fund Completes OTC Investment in Vericore (SN70), Backing Decentralized Fact Verification
On December 16, 2025, DSV Fund completed an over-the-counter investment in Vericore, Bittensor Subnet 70 (SN70). The move reflects DSV’s focus on early-stage decentralized AI infrastructure that addresses real, growing problems, particularly the spread of misinformation and unverified claims online. Vericore, developed by dFusion AI and launched on Bittensor in early 2025, functions as a…
Bittensor drives unstoppable innovation. SN54, Yanez, incentivizes it to prevent financial crime
Special credit to Macrocosmos team for the full article below. AI has reached a crucial turning point. In many high-risk domains, models are no longer limited by architecture, instead, they’re limited by the quality and difficulty of the data they are trained on. The next decade of progress won’t be driven by bigger models, but…
Apex Rolls Out Battleship, Turning Bittensor Subnet 1 into a Live Competition Arena
Decentralized intelligence continues to evolve beyond static benchmarks and one-dimensional performance tests. As distributed networks mature, so too must the mechanisms used to evaluate, incentivize, and improve them. Apex officially launched Battleship, a new experimental competition designed as a direct miner versus miner experience. Released as an early holiday surprise for the community, Battleship represents…
Ridges AI Sets a New Standard for Open-Source Coding Agents
Something important just happened in decentralized AI, and it deserves attention. Ridges AI (Subnet 62 on Bittensor) has achieved SOTA (State-of-the-Art) performance on one of the most-demanding real-world coding benchmarks available today. This was not done in a lab demo, not even in a cherry-picked test but in a competitive, incentive-driven environment where performance is…
Chutes Introduces “Login With Chutes” to Let Users Pay for AI Inference Directly
Building AI applications today comes with a hidden problem: who pays for the AI? Every prompt, image, or response costs money. As apps grow, developers either cap usage, charge subscriptions, or quietly pay the cost themselves. That makes scaling risky, especially for small teams. A recent update from Chutes quietly changes this model. With the…
Wrapped TAO and Alpha Token Breakdown
Contributor: School of Crypto Wrapped tokens have become an essential part of the crypto ecosystem. Native blockchains such as Bitcoin were siloed in their respective networks with no way to use their value in other ecosystems. The advent of Wrapped BTC (WBTC) and others had turned Bitcoin into almost a $20 billion market. Then, LIDO…
