Siam and Mark sit down with Keith Singery, host of the Bittensor Guru podcast, who admits he once rage-quit Bittensor, only to get re-hooked a month later.

Keith talks about swapping a 12-year supply chain career for psychedelic soul-searching, mushroom experiments, and finally staking his future on open intelligence.

He breaks down how capital really comes into the ecosystem, why one breakout subnet will change everything, and why he puts Ridges at the front of the pack. He doesn’t sugarcoat it: deregistration will shred 40–50 subnets, only the strongest teams will survive, and price charts are a distraction compared to what holders and builders are doing.

It’s a mix of confession, comedy, and hard-earned conviction from one of Bittensor’s earliest voices.

Void AI is building the on-ramps Bittensor was missing. Hansel Melo – an early miner turned multi-subnet owner (SN27 + SN106) – lays out how Subnet 106 bridges TAO and alpha tokens to Solana now and Ethereum next, so anyone can trade with Phantom or MetaMask and plug straight into DeFi.

What we cover:

• The simple win for users: swap TAO and subnet tokens without a Bittensor wallet

• Why concentrated liquidity beats V2 pools for depth and slippage

• How bridging unlocks composability across Radium, Uniswap, lending, and more

• The revenue flywheel: bridge fees, staking rewards, trading fees, upcoming ARB bot

• Where value goes: TAO buybacks + protocol-owned liquidity to deepen markets

In this episode we sit down with the team behind Subnet 88 – Investing, a project some call the “decentralized BlackRock.” Their goal: optimized trading strategies for any asset in the world, built on Bittensor.

We unpack:

• How Subnet 88 combines miners’ allocation tables into portfolio signals

• Why they see themselves as a decentralized Wall Street – from TAO staking to U.S. equities

• The roadmap toward ETFs, hedge fund partnerships, and signal provision

Mark and Siam sat down with Seby Rubino, the 25-year-old real estate prodigy behind RESI (Subnet 46) – the subnet aiming to be “Chainlink for real estate.”

Seby’s building a nationwide property database on Bittensor – decentralized, cheaper, and more open than the monopolized data silos of Attom Data. That foundation unlocks everything from an AI appraiser to on-chain real estate lending and even a stablecoin backed by property values.

We covered:

• How RESI plans to eat Attom Data’s market share

• Turning property data into prediction markets

• Why early revenues from predictive lead-gen could scale fast to $100k+ MRR

If you want to understand how Bittensor could open a trillion-dollar market, this is one to watch.

On this episode of Revenue Search, we dive into Subnet 75 – Hippius - with Mog and Dubs. Their team is taking on cloud storage with a decentralized model that’s cheaper, faster, and more transparent than AWS, Google, or Dropbox.

We cover:

• Why decentralized storage has never really been solved – until now

• How Hippius uses its own blockchain to align miners, revenue, and token value

• What enterprises and subnets are already building on Hippius

This isn’t just theory – Hippius already undercuts Big Tech by orders of magnitude. If you want to understand how real-world revenue models are emerging inside Bittensor, this is the episode to hear.

AI agents are only as smart as the data they can see. Giga joins us to explain how Subnet 22 is turning LLMs into real-time operators – by piping in fresh data at scale.

We talk:

• Why real-time search is the missing layer in most agents

• How Subnet 22 is already powering live customer deployments

• The business case for 24/7 AI sales reps (spoiler: they don’t need lunch breaks)

James Altucher - entrepreneur, bestselling author, early Bitcoin evangelist, and founder of TAO X - joins us to unpack why Bittensor feels like “Bitcoin in 2013,” and how decentralized incentives could upend not just AI, but entrepreneurship itself. We cover the rise of subnets, the hard truth about alpha tokens, and why value capture - not hype - will separate winners from the noise.

From codified buybacks and equity linkages to miner incentives and treasury strategy, James lays out the playbook he thinks will drive real adoption: make alpha a “ticket to value,” reward performance algorithmically, and communicate like a serious business - not a research project.

In this conversation, you’ll hear:

• How to turn alpha from a memecoin into a “ticket” that unlocks real value (algorithmic buybacks, equity share classes, staking requirements)

• The treasury-company playbook for TAO: tokens-per-share, staking, validators, and why equity-like mechanics matter

• What risks could stall Bittensor - and how better incentive design and clear comms de-risk them

Zeus is building a weather API that outperforms anything that’s available right now now. Miners compete to forecast temperature, wind, rain, and humidity. Validators score them, and the best predictions win. 

• Paid API access coming very soon

• First focus: energy and commodities 

• 50% of revenue goes to alpha buybacks.

Weather forecasting is a billion dollar market, and Zeus has got an edge. Listen to the whole episode to find out how alpha holdres can capture the upside.

In this episode of Revenue Search, we sit down with Fred from Polaris (Subnet 49) - a team building what they call the “Airbnb of compute,” starting from Africa and expanding globally.

Fred lays out Polaris’ mission to make GPUs and compute power accessible for universities, researchers, and builders who can’t afford Big Tech’s pricing. We dive into:

• Their subscription-based model (instead of a race to the bottom on hourly pricing).

• The roadmap for revenue, security, and scaling into a full AI infrastructure layer.

From bootstrapping with loaned GPUs to pitching a $1M raise, Fred is blunt about the challenges, the mission, and why accessibility matters.

Mark and Siam interview Atlas, the founder behind Mantis (Subnet 123) - Mantis doesn’t just score miners on their raw predictions. Instead, it measures the information value of their embeddings - rewarding miners whose signals improve the ensemble accuracy of market forecasts.

Atlas walks us through:

• How a teenager in Costa Rica went from mining Ethereum without home internet to launching one of Bittensor’s most ambitious subnets.

• Why Mantis is starting with BTCUSD forecasting but already expanding into forex and metals.

• The challenge of turning emissions into real-world revenue - from PTN integration to potential hedge fund partnerships.

• How verifiable, time-locked blockchain logging could make signals truly transparent.

If you want to understand how Bittensor is spawning the next generation of quant infrastructure this is one to tune into.
