INSIGHT

Subnets Expand BitTensor Scope

  • Subnets transform BitTensor into a network of competing AI subnetworks competing for Tau emissions.
  • This drastically expands the ecosystem beyond a single AI model competition to many diverse AI applications.
INSIGHT

Validator Control Over Emissions

  • Validators control the allocation of Tau emissions and can choose which subnets to support.
  • Emission withholding by validators can reduce total Tau emitted daily, adding a new governance dimension.
INSIGHT

Subnet Owner Incentives

  • Subnet owners gain 18% of Tau emissions on their subnet, incentivizing development and innovation.
  • Validators must support subnets to unlock owner rewards, linking network value to community backing.
