Introducing Contra Payments.
The first payments platform that lets you sell to AI Agents.
RT + Comment “Contra” and I’ll send you 100 products AI agents are looking for.
So @ridges_ai just announced a partnership with @latentholdings and traders have reacted.
Longterm this is bullish but like most subnet price action plays.... this one will take some time.

Everyone's calling the @opentensor Subnet Ideathon "accessible" and "no code required."
Then you read what Round 1 actually demands.
You need to design:
- Incentive mechanism with emission logic that discourages gaming
- Proof of intelligence/effort architecture
- Miner task assignment with scoring dimensions
V- alidator evaluation methodology with cadence
- Business logic proving long-term sustainability
- Go-to-market strategy with early adopter path
- 5-10 min video walkthrough
1- 0-page pitch deck
And here's who decides if you advance:
@KibibyteMe has built the infrastructure at Latent Holdings - he knows what actually breaks when subnets scale past launch.
@Old_Samster allocates capital through Unsupervised Cap - he evaluates whether your economics survive past the emissions cliff.
@pepeleplutus runs @LeadpoetAI live on the network - he spots the gap between blueprint and what actually ships.
@macrozack built @bitstarterAI to accelerate builders - he filters for whether you can articulate value clearly enough to attract real users.
They're not there to just give advice. They're selecting 7 teams out of everyone who understand mechanism design well enough to build what survives.
$18K + Bitstarter access + potential 1000 $TAO is real.
So is the filter.
If you can architect incentives that resist gaming - Feb 28 deadline.
If you're still learning subnet economics - this brief is your curriculum.
Introducing the judging panel for the Opentensor Foundation x Hackquest Bittensor Subnet Ideathon.
Meet the experts evaluating your subnet blueprints:
🔹@KibibyteMe – CTO of @latentholdings and former core contributor at @opentensor.
🔹@Old_Samster – Managing Partner of @UnsupervisedCap, a liquid fund dedicated to the Bittensor ecosystem.
🔹@macrozack – Founder of @bitstarterai and CMO of @MacrocosmosAI.
🔹@pepeleplutus – Co-founder of @LeadpoetAI (SN71), the decentralized sales intelligence engine.
🔹@masonl – CTO of BT Labs.
Over $18,000 USD in cash prizes
+ Opportunity to join the @bitstarterAI Accelerator
+ Potential discretionary investment of up to 1000 TAO from @UnsupervisedCap
🗓️ Registration is LIVE! Round 1 Submissions close Feb 25. 👉hackquest.io/hackathons/Bitt…

In March 2025, I made a wish:
Bittensor is magical, and its community is extraordinary.
A huge thank you to τao ciτy for making that wish come true.
Even though I don’t speak English, I’ve always been a big fan of the American-style radio shows, that lively, free, creative way of telling stories.
I genuinely believe this channel could become a full-time project.
There is so much to talk about on Bittensor, so many topics to explore, and so many voices to highlight.
Everything is possible:
interviews, debates, deep dives…
and why not shows interrupted by AI-generated music, powered by Bittensor.
We already have The TAO Daily (@taodaily_io) , which you should definitely check out.
From now on, τao ciτy also deserves a permanent spot in your bookmarks.

After what happened with Subnet 67 (Tennex), I created a Telegram group called Recovery TAO.
With the help of Ham Porter, who put together a list of liquidity providers affected by 67, we took a first step toward coordination and support. I didn’t know what the outcome would be, but I knew one thing for certain:
I didn’t want members of our Bittensor community to feel alone, isolated, or abandoned after such a horrific event.
This ecosystem is people-first. Many on that list put real blood, sweat, and conviction into earning and holding their $TAO. When trust is broken, the damage goes far beyond numbers on a screen.
When I heard that @Pop_Collapse may have lost 1,507 TAO, my heart was genuinely broken. I can’t independently confirm that every claim is accurate, and it’s important to be honest about that. That said, @futileturtle made a sincere effort to carry out due diligence and verify what could reasonably be verified under the circumstances.
If you’re in a position to help - whether through advice, visibility, resources, or simply showing support - it matters more than you might think.
We build Bittensor together.
I also want to thank @MarsSmuff , @macrozack , and @LouiseBeattie for stepping into the group to check on the community and offer support. That presence and willingness to help meant a great deal to the people affected.
This is what a real ecosystem looks like when it’s tested.

Looking back at my 2025 Davinci Resolve projects for @TaoCity
What a fun ride so far.
The first official TAO Tuesday of 2026 is in the books. Already stoked for the next stream!

Massive props 👏👏👏 to @ridges_ai for the advancements they're bringing to Bittensor.
It's insane that they are state of the art at SWE-bench and now Polyglot benchmark. And they aren't slowing down over the holidays. There's a race between their miners to improve the product VS the subnet team to deliver a product to end-users. Miners are constantly improving the product before it's even ready lol!
And now, we're seeing their template being copied to tackle other problems like web automation (@AutoppiaAI), security audits (@bitsecai) and more...
It is beautiful to see the explosion of innovation that Bittensor's open source nature encourages.
This next year we're going to see an absolute explosion in innovation! 🤯🤯🤯
🚀 Ridges Update: Christmas Edition
Over the past few weeks, we've been building out our product platform and aggressively updating problem sets.
Here's what's new:
SOTA on Polyglot
We previously only evaluated agents on SWE-Bench, but have since expanded to include Polyglot benchmark questions, which are 'create-mode' style (vs SWE which is closer to bug fix mode).
Ridges agents are now definitively state of the art on Polyglot Python questions, and catching up on other languages fast.
Agents are tested on a custom, harder version of the problem set. When dropped into the regular Polyglot benchmark, agents score over 96%. See the results here: ridges.ai/agent/4d25cfec-24c…
SWE-Bench Pro
Support for a third benchmark, SWE-Bench Pro, is coming this week, to increase the variety of questions agents run on and continue to improve product experience.
What's New And What's Next
At the moment, we review real world agent performance and adjust problem sets manually to tune the incentive mechanism towards areas which are weak.
The end goal is to have product data drop in as the incentive - however to do this we need a lot more data.
For the past few weeks and for the next little while, we are continuing to tune the problem set manually, to get to an inflection point where usage takes off and the product data becomes a drop in. We're also rolling out to more and more users and planning to drop the waitlist entirely soon.
We're almost there, and we'll keep you guys posted. Stay tuned 👀

Merry Christmas from all of us at Chutes🎄✨
Today we’re feeling extra grateful, for everyone building with us, believing in what we’re creating, and showing up every day with curiosity, energy, and heart.
Here’s to the builders, the community, the late-night shippers, and the people who make this journey worth it.
Wishing you warmth, peace, and a holiday season full of magic.
The best gifts are the ones we build together 🎁.

The important thing is that we do the right thing, exploits are signals that teach a mechanism, organism, network how to harden
Don't fight the exploit, learn from them
