A new wave of “human miners” is quietly entering the Bittensor ecosystem, and it’s coming from a place most crypto-native builders rarely reach: the global machine learning talent pool. In a recent Hash Rate interview (watch below), Jean Herelle, founder of Crunch, explained how his company has built a bridge between high-level data scientists and…
Subnet 1 (SN1) Apex is part of the Macrocosmos ecosystem, focused on game-theoretic AI and open-ended intelligence. Instead of a single mining task, SN1 runs multiple live competitions where miners compete by submitting algorithms or models. Each competition has its own incentive pool, meaning miners can specialize in different problem areas while emissions are distributed…
Artificial intelligence has become the defining technology of our time, yet most people remain shut out from contributing to its creation. Training frontier models typically requires massive data centers, expensive hardware, and tightly controlled environments. Macrocosmos, led by CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Will Squires and CTO (Chief Technology Officer) Steffen Cruz, wants to change that….
SUMMARY: Bittensor mining is becoming more accessible, and this video showcases two subnets that offer some of the easiest ways for beginners to start earning rewards. By providing concentrated liquidity on TaoFi (Subnet 10) or depositing $TAO into the Tenexium (Subnet 67) counterparty vault, users can earn both trading fees and mining emissions with minimal…
SUMMARY: Subnet 88 (Investing88) is one of the easiest Bittensor subnets to mine because you do not need AI-engineering skills. Mining is done by submitting portfolio strategies for Bittensor subnet “$ALPHA” or US stocks on the Zero Code dashboard, and the subnet rewards miners whose strategies perform well in simulated 1,000 TAO portfolios. This video…
The TAO Miner Map is now live on Learn Bittensor, marking a major milestone for the Bittensor ecosystem. The interactive map gives the community a clear, visual overview of the network’s global mining operations, something many have been waiting for. The launch was highlighted in a recent post by Joseph Jacks, founder of OSS Capital,…
SUMMARY: The video shows how beginners can profit from Bittensor mining by learning to optimize miners instead of relying on default setups that quickly fall behind competitors. It demonstrates how to pull a subnet codebase, load it into Cursor, analyze validator scoring, and locally test miner responses using AI agents. The demonstration also walks through…
SUMMARY: This explainer breaks down how anyone with a decent computer and a little curiosity can become a Bittensor miner and earn $TAO by helping train decentralized AI. It walks through what miners and validators do, what hardware and basic skills are needed to lock-in, and why this process is more about learning and participating…
TAOHash (Subnet 14 on Bittensor) is redefining Bitcoin mining by injecting the principles of decentralization and market dynamics into a sector long dominated by centralized entities. A recent feature on Open Source Press highlights how TAOHash is making hashrate liquid, tradable, and, most importantly, more decentralized. The Problem of Mining Centralization Bitcoin mining has achieved…
The Bittensor TAO mining course video below offers newcomers a hands-on introduction to mining within the TAO ecosystem. Unlike traditional crypto mining, which relies on solving random hashes, Bittensor rewards contributors for providing useful AI work. If you want to understand how to mine TAO effectively, this guide explains the requirements, setup, rewards, and expectations….
