ORO

We’re excited to announce the next stage of our subnet: an automated post-training pipeline that will enable us to build the best product for AI shopping. It’s only been 50 days, but we’re now getting 20k high-quality trajectories per day that are rich training signals for online shopping tasks. Using the trajectories we have thus far, we saw an 18% → 42% climb on Qwen3-4B base using our post-training pipeline.

@vaNlabs The worst part was, it was through someone we knew who's telegram was compromised. Regardless, won't happen in the future.

@oroagents Well known attack vector. These guys don't screw around either, it all seems very legit while its happening. The only tell is the URL is usually teams(dot)livescalls(dot)com if links are properly inspected, which people tend not to do. Can't fault anyone that fell for it.

@xGnomeshgh_ thank you for your support

@oroagents 加油，一切都会好起来的🫡

Over the past several days, we've been working around the clock to understand the security incident that impacted the ORO subnet owner wallet on July 13th. First, the most important thing: the subnet is fully operational. The breach was contained to only the SN15 owner wallet, which had 147K Alpha Tokens transferred to the attacker. The team has worked closely with the @opentensor, @CrucibleLabs, @ConnitoAI, Crypto Exchanges, Law Enforcement, and members of the community to identify the root cause and have filed reports with the necessary authorities in an attempt to recover some of the funds that were stolen. We believe that the source of the breach was a team member’s computer that had been compromised and exfiltrated the owner wallet. The team is still gathering information to determine exactly how this happened. We do have evidence pointing to a single attacker behind both our and Connito's incidents. There is no evidence that the Crucible Wallet is the source of this attack. When we have more information, we will share the full post-mortem with the community to ensure this doesn't happen to anyone else in Bittensor. When we bought the subnet slot, we'd decided both the validator and the owner wallet would sit on hardware wallets. In a coordination lapse, the owner key was set up as a software wallet instead. That was inexcusable, and it was our mistake. We are truly sorry for the impact this has had on our community and our supporters. This incident reinforced an important lesson for the team: building great products also requires continuously evolving our operational security. As part of that commitment, we've already implemented or are implementing: • A coldkey swap of SN15 ownership. • Multi-signature hardware protection for the subnet owner keys. • A Conviction lock on owner emissions. • Additional internal operational security controls and reviews. Our priority now is rebuilding the community's trust and continuing to ship improvements to the subnet. For those who have stuck by our side, we thank you for your continued support. The best is yet to come. Yours, ORO

@evilsadsick all the way up

@oroagents only up for ORO

In the past 101 days of being live, we have judged 2.5M+ agent trajectories. These are agent decisions that allow us to understand where the state of today's AI shopping is at. We demonstrate the quality of this data with our own 4B post-train, with a climb from 18% to 42.7% on just 1 day's worth of data. You'll be able to visualize this very soon. We've also increased the payouts. The best builders on ORO are taking home up to $20k USD a day in on-chain rewards. Oh, also, we've been live for 101 days CONSECUTIVELY. 0 days of downtime. We've been scoring some big wins since our launch, and there's some even bigger ones in the pipeline. Stay tuned.

Great to have gone through EdgeBench. At ORO AI, we're working on some long-horizon agent evaluations as well that will change how benchmarking is performed for agentic commerce tasks. There's a reliability gap that SN15 is built to close. EdgeBench from the Bytedance team validates the market demand of continuous, real-world benchmarking infrastructure. Excited to share some more news in a bit...

Some big updates for the miners on ORO in the last 2 days. Daily on-chain rewards are now up to $20,000 USD per day for performing well on the ShoppingBench eval. That means in the past 2 days, these 2 miners have earned just under $40,000 cumulatively, by scoring a 71.7%: 🥇 Race #72 Winner: titan 🥇 Race #73 Winner: tower

@proofoftalk was an amazing experience, so glad we had the team there to be able to showcase our work and connect with builders and supporters of @bittensor

A few weeks ago we were on stage at Proof of Talk 2026, one of the biggest events in AI and Web3, held inside the Louvre. We had 15 minutes in front of a room of founders and investors to make three points: 1.⁠ ⁠AI is already shopping on your behalf. 2.⁠ ⁠There's no open benchmark to measure if it's doing that well, and; 3.⁠ ⁠We’re building the open, live arena that fixes both. Here's the talk:

@buildwithsamp Looks like we need to add baguettes to the list of things our agents will shop for! 🥖

489 million requests in 24 hours, ORO miners and users had 0 impact. Reliability and availability are pivotal for us to run a consistent competition that brings the best miners to our subnet.

All of the data is open source already through operating the subnet. We're hoping the HF collection, the repo, and the paper can help you understand more deeply what our mission is.

We've talked a lot about how our efforts to train AI to shop will be entirely open source. Through Bittensor, we're committed to that ethos. We're excited to share our pre-print on arXiv, our code, our data and our entire post-training pipeline. Huge shoutout and thanks to @JarrodBarnes in helping us leverage this very valuable data. This is how AI is going to learn to shop.
