Just read "#RootReborn" — PR #2759 on subtensor. This is one of the most important economic changes to Bittensor in a long time. Let me explain why it matters. 🧵

We recently scored 75.2% on EVMBench!
Thanks to @OpenAI and @paradigm for putting the benchmark together to test agentic smart contract vulnerability detection.

Every milestone has been leading to this.
We're proud to announce that General Tensor has acquired Backprop Finance from @TensorplexLabs.
@BackpropFinance is the all-in-one trading terminal for Bittensor subnets - and is one of Bittensor's highest-volume trading platforms, accounting for up to one-third of the network's subnet volume annualized.
The next chapter starts now.

Introducing Virtual Vaults: a new platform for institutional onchain lending, secured by Space and Time.
Contango Digital Assets retweeted
I've taken some time to really think about this before sharing.
Huge congrats to @tplr_ai
While yes it is true that the frontier models now have trillions of parameters, its still incredibly impressive, and I believe Templar will catch up to its centralized counterparties.
The most incredible part about this pre-training run is that anyone can join from around the world, BUT that anyone could also exit at any time without ruining the result.
This is the future of DeAI.
Only on Bittensor.

🚀 New on the TestMachine blog:
We sat down with Coinbase's security team to unpack how TestMachine powers token safety behind Coinbase’s new DEX expansion, enabling trading across millions of ERC-20 tokens without compromising trust.
From hidden token privileges to continuous AI-driven monitoring, here’s the inside story on how @coinbase scales token listings securely with TestMachine.

Curious what AI on Base looks like?
Start here.
AI isn’t finding its home in Silicon Valley.
It’s being built and shipped on @base
The proof is in the products below.

🎉🙌2025 was a big year for us.
We began by closing our pre-seed round and scaling our team from 3 to 14. From there, we made it our mission to become vertically integrated across the Bittensor ecosystem.
Over the year, we:
→ Took ownership of Subnet 35 @0x_Markets
→ Hit top mining performance on two of the top 5 subnets
→ Became majority owners of the @21RoundTable validator while retaining @wildsagelabs as the continued operating team
→ Incubated Subnet 23 @trishoolai alongside @kardashev_i and his talented team
→ Partnered with @VantaTrading to launch the Subnet 35 Cartha testnet
We wrapped up the year by closing our seed round and launching our first product: @Rubicon_bridge, built in partnership with @Chainlink. For the first time, enabling Bittensor subnets to bridge directly to @Base.
We want to thank everyone who's been part of the journey.
2026 will take things to the next level. We'll be sharing more soon.

The team at @testmachine_ai is incredible! They are pushing the envelope on blockchain security, with AI-driven solutions that are light years ahead of the competition.
@ContangoDigital is proud to be a long time investor of Test Machine. Congratulations on your most recent funding!

Behind every decentralized triumph: builders who ship at escape velocity, leaving centralized relics in the dust.
@kardashev_i: Enterprise vet from Oracle and Lloyds, built and exited metaverse infra powerhouse Metaphy, —first AI AVS on EigenLayer mainnet, securing $7B ETH restaked, now CEO, co-founder of Trishool.
@uupreeth: Former Yellow.ai, BlueYonder, CTO at Metaphy labs also seeing through to an exit. Now CTO and co-founder of Trishool.
The future of AI isn't being debated—it's being built, decentralized and unbreakable, on Bittensor.
@trishoolai is forging the swarm: Architects, Adversaries, Oracles turning alignment into an adversarial economy that scales with intelligence itself.
Proud to incubate sn23 with @yumaGroup.
(Ψ) TRISHOOL IS LIVE (Ψ)
Subnet 23 on @opentensor has officially launched.
AI (mis)alignment is the biggest existential threat facing humanity now.
And we are using the power of decentralization to address it.
Welcome to the Alignment Economy.

Bittensor subnet tokens coming to @base very soon.
Very proud of the team for shipping nonstop to get this done. And major thank you to our partners @chainlink @base @aeroxyz you guys have been great.
So what does this mean?
Short thread below.
Serious builders, real missions, SOTA systems—this is Bittensor. The next step is a 🌉 worth crossing, a quiet nod to Caesar’s Rubicon. @chainlink @base @aeroxyz #Bittensor #TAO #LSA

AI agents built by @gizatechxyz are now managing $25m AND GROWING EVERYDAY.
This is the future of DeFi. Automated vaults, managed by your own agent.
✦ 𝐆𝐢𝐳𝐚 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝 $𝟐𝟓,𝟎𝟎𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭 ✦
From under half a million in February to $25M in October, our AUA has expanded over 50x in 8 months.
> Compounding at ~63% monthly
> 3x'd this past quarter
> Up 25% this past week alone
Giza agents are proving in real-time that DeFi works better when human attention isn't the bottleneck.
And we're just warming up.
Contango Digital Assets retweeted
This is such a huge integration for @gizatechxyz
This is their 2nd agent after Arma, and its now clear that Giza will be everywhere in DeFi in the near future. This is the start of an ecosystem of agents, that can begin to cooperate and scale exponentially. Swarm Finance in action!
@pendle_fi is the perfect place to start this new phase of growth. Even seasoned DeFi users can find Pendle difficult to navigate. This integration opens up the deep liquidity Pendle has to all retail investors.
Pulse users can earn 13% APR on ETH-PT markets with just a couple clicks. Let Pulse do all of the rebalancing and expiry management as you sit back and EARN.
Giza is really just crushing it at every step. Amazing to see!

Congratulations to the @JoinSapien team on their successful TGE.
$SAPIEN will play a major role in their ecosystem, with users being asked to stake $SAPIEN for their Proof of Quality consensus mechanism.
The next few years will be big for the team.
@RowanRK6 @trevorkoverko
Coinbase will add support for Sapien (SAPIEN) on the Base network. Do not send this asset over other networks or your funds may be lost. Transfers for this asset are available on @Coinbase @CoinbaseExch in the regions where trading is supported.
