  • Subnet Session with Rizzo from Talisman AI: Subnet 45
    Nov 26 2025

    A lively Revenue Search with guest Greg “Rizzo” unveiling two big threads: first, Subnet 45’s partnership with Talisman to turn its crypto wallet into an AI-augmented “smart” wallet—miners pull sentiment/relevance signals (e.g., via Subnet 64 and Data Universe), users set voice/dictation trading triggers (DCA, limit/TP/SL, on-chain events), with security handled via smart contracts and ledger/iOS support; revenue flows from tool usage and a share of Talisman trading fees earmarked for buy-and-burn. Second, Rizzo + DNA are forming a community-driven, NASDAQ-listed Digital Asset Treasury (target size ~$300M): subnet owners can contribute ALPHA for locked 3–5 year treasury holdings and receive equity, easing sell-pressure; an “Avengers” advisory group of OGs will guide treasury deployment while validator ops and Subnets 20/45 serve as revenue-generating businesses. The session closes with Q&A on copy trading, detailed on-chain metrics/triggers, onboarding newer subnets, and candid takes on TAOFlow’s implications for research subnets.

  • Subnet Session with LeadPoet: Subnet 71.mp4
    Nov 24 2025

    A live, on-location Revenue Search featuring LeadPoet, a Bittensor-powered subnet/product that automates outbound sales by crowdsourcing high-quality leads from miners, validating them, and selling them to clients—initially via sales agencies for scale. The model gates access by burning alpha, creating a flywheel (more demand → larger reward pool → tougher competition → better data → more demand) and plans to evolve from selling leads to booking meetings. Early pricing spans self-serve subscriptions, volume API, and enterprise deals, with strong emphasis on data quality, anti-gaming validation, and eventual conversion-based miner rewards via CRM integrations. Beta opens in December with an open-source qualification agent; early access targets January, with comparisons to Apollo highlighting fresher, re-validated data and broader coverage through permissionless miners.

  • Talking Tao: with Ala and David from Crucible Labs
    Nov 18 2025

    After a short hiatus, Revenue Search returns with Crucible Labs: Ala and David explain why Crucible exists: do the unglamorous, high-leverage work the foundation can’t—validate and allocate, build research and investor materials (via Unsupervised Capital), ship a TAO-native wallet with an auto-allocator and Ledger support, and incubate/accelerate stronger subnets. A big theme is governance and speed: DTO changed incentives quickly by design; true decentralization is the destination, but right now rapid, iterative tweaks are vital to keep a permissionless system healthy. Their near-term North Star is onboarding capital and talent through clarity and tooling, not hype: make staking/allocating simpler, abstract complexity, and help investors and builders see where value accrues.

    They’re bullish that Bittensor is an “anything-incentive layer,” not just AI—and expect breakout products (e.g., dev-tools like Ridges) to pull mainstream attention and capital far more than explanations of emissions.
