Bittensor Ecosystem Progress and TAO Institute Launch
 ### 0xSammy@0xSammy
Most people still dismiss Bittensor as an experiment; they're not paying attention to what's actually shipping
i) Covenant-72B just proved decentralized training works at 72 billion parameters
ii) Targon partnered with Intel on confidential compute
iii) Chutes is dominating OpenRouter inference; becoming a viable alternative to AWS
That's just 3 out of 128 subnets
The ecosystem is moving fast and the signal-to-noise ratio is only getting harder to navigate; there's great research out there but no single framework tying it all together
That's why we're building TAO Institute; an evaluation and risk framework to bring transparency and structure to how people research the Bittensor ecosystem
