Bittensor Ecosystem Gains Momentum with Subnet Growth and Institutional Interest
Decentralized AI network Bittensor is experiencing accelerated growth, marked by expanding subnets, increasing wallet adoption, and broader institutional access. A Harris Poll commissioned by Digital Currency Group reveals 77% of consumers now view decentralized AI as superior to Big Tech-controlled systems, with nearly half already using open-source AI tools.
The network, which operates as a blockchain-based peer-to-peer marketplace for machine learning, now hosts 128 active subnets. These span diverse applications—from Yanez's MIID subnet for financial compliance stress-testing to NATIX's StreetVision leveraging crowdsourced urban video data from 250,000 drivers. The surge reflects growing demand for alternatives to centralized AI data monopolies.
