• I will be interviewed tonight on "60 Minutes." Hopefully, they will show all the good things we've done over the past 2 years, not even including the First Term, which was incredible. If we get help from the Republican Senate, we can still do things that are unbelievable! President DJT Donald J. Trump
• THE BLOCK: Vitalik Buterin says ETH should be valued as a store of value, not a fee-burning token. He said the burn "was never a true floor" and that optimizing for fees would require heavy protocol spending and interventionist governance. Buterin said Ethereum should keep its fee burn, but holders "should not feel sad" if it stays below 10% of breakeven indefinitely. Ethereum has burned about 19,200 ETH so far this year, down from 1.48 million in 2022, per The Block’s data. The thread comes five weeks after the authors of a proposal to burn a rising share of staking rewards withdrew it following industry pushback. The Block

• Privacy doesn't have to come at the cost of performance. NVIDIA's latest B200 benchmarks show confidential AI inference retaining 96.1–98.2% of baseline throughput, with just 1.2–4.3% latency overhead. With TEE-backed execution, protecting sensitive data during computation is becoming increasingly practical. Private AI is moving closer to performance parity. OpenLedger

• 🚨 $BTC tumbles below $76k — down ~5% Thursday, wiping the post-midterm bounce that had pushed it back above $80k as the stock rally faded. 💥 Democrats swept both chambers. Crypto stocks got smoked ($COIN , $HOOD , $MSTR , $BLSH -9%+). Clarity Act off the table for the lame duck; Warren set to chair Banking and open investigations. Residual Binance-hack fragility still in the tape. ⚡ K33 flagged thin liquidity + leverage as the setup for the swing. Fundstrat’s counter: bigger deficits under split-power gridlock could actually strengthen the BTC hedge bid. 💞 Sellers who faded the $80k rip finally got paid. Holders still absorbing another political fade inside the range. Deficit trade intact, or just more Washington noise until the next macro print? $AIO #olaxbt OLAXBT

• Vitalik: Slowing the Hyperscale Expansion of AI Compute May Do More Good Than Harm @VitalikButerin said he disagrees with the strong negative reaction to the anti-data-center movement, arguing that continued gains in algorithmic efficiency could allow AI capabilities requiring much larger data centers in two years to be achieved within roughly four years using existing infrastructure. He said slowing compute expansion could give society more time to address cybersecurity, biosecurity and other risks, while scientific progress is constrained by factors beyond AI, meaning a one-year slowdown in AI would not necessarily translate into an equal delay in research.

• Bittensor Ecosystem Highlights :: November 2–8, 2026 This week, Bittensor subnets pushed the AI frontier, outperforming leading models in coding, decision-making and security. The biggest stories came from Reax, OpenRoboto, IOTA, Reliquary, Chutes, Trishool, Oro, Minos, Hippius and TPN. [ @reaxlabs - Subnet 92 ] Reax produced the #1 AI decision model on Hugging Face’s Decision Index, beating over 270 competing models. REAX 1.3 combines work from two Bittensor miners and outperforms leading models from Perplexity and Fastino. The model is already available through @DecisionModels’ API, bringing the results of Bittensor’s open competition directly to AI developers. [ @openroboto - Subnet 80 ] OpenRoboto signed its first commercial robotics data pilot with Vulcan Shield Hungary, a major European advanced materials manufacturer. The pilot starts with factory simulations and real-world data collection using OR-S1 headsets, before training robot models for the production line. [ @MacrocosmosAI - Subnet 9 ] Macrocosmos released IOTA Decide 4B, its first open-weight AI decision model, trained across 16 GPUs distributed around the world. The team also generated and labeled 879,000 training examples using its own distributed inference system, demonstrating an end-to-end decentralized AI pipeline. It achieved a reported 78.6 score on JevBench, within three points of the leading result despite having just 4B parameters. [ @reliquary_ai - Subnet 81 ] Reliquary released Teutonic-I-Reliquary, a 9B AI model post-trained entirely on Bittensor using decentralized GPU compute. It outperformed Qwen3.5-9B on 5 of 8 benchmarks, including SWE-bench Verified, where it scored 43.6% versus 35.1%. Four Bittensor subnets contributed: Teutonic (base model), @lium_io (compute), @TargonCompute (sandboxes) and @reliquary_ai (training and evaluation). [ @chutes_ai - Subnet 64 ] Chutes became a launch partner for Tencent Cloud’s new flagship AI model, Hy4, making it available through its API from day one. The collaboration brings one of China’s largest tech companies directly into the Bittensor ecosystem. [ @trishoolai - Subnet 23 ] Trishool released HaloGuard 2.0, a new SOTA in AI output security, outperforming Qwen3Guard-Stream with just 0.8B parameters. With its newly launched Astroware platform, the team is also working to bring this research to enterprise customers. [ @oroagents - Subnet 15 ] ORO launched SMB Bench, testing whether nine leading AI models can profitably run a wholesale business over 90 days. Eight of nine models failed to beat a simple buying strategy, with only GPT-6 Astra coming out ahead on average. SMB Bench takes ORO’s research beyond the shopping agents competing on Subnet 15, toward AI capable of running entire businesses. [ @theminos_ai - Subnet 107 ] Minos launched the public beta of its macOS app, letting users put their own AI assistants to work on scientific research tasks. The ambition is to build a decentralized research network where anyone can contribute through AI agents and earn rewards for verified work. [ @Hippius_cloud - Subnet 75 ] Hippius reached a major milestone with 1 petabyte (1,000 TB) of data now stored across its distributed storage network. [ @TPN_Labs - Subnet 65 ] TPN introduced @Gratis_AI, a free app that lets anyone run open-source AI models locally, directly in their browser or on desktop. Users can access models from Hugging Face without complex setup, keeping their conversations private and on their own devices. Openτensor Foundaτion
