Advancing confidential computing for a more secure AI future. Together with @manifoldlabs, we’re exploring how Intel TDX and Intel Trust Authority help enable confidential workloads across decentralized infrastructure, including @TargonCompute's Targon Cloud platform—protecting data at rest, in transit, and in use.

We needed to run trusted workloads on untrusted host machines. So over a year ago, we started building the Targon Virtual Machine to enable Confidential TEEs in production. Today we're sharing our white paper written alongside @intel: Decentralized Compute on Untrusted Hardware Using Intel® TDX and Encrypted CVMs

The largest decentralised LLM pre-training run in history. SN3 @tplr_ai trained Covenant-72B across 70+ contributors on open internet infrastructure. Now it’s being discussed by @chamath with @nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. Distributed, open-weight model training on Bittensor is getting started.

We just completed the largest decentralised LLM pre-training run in history: Covenant-72B. Permissionless, on Bittensor subnet 3. 72B parameters. ~1.1T tokens. Commodity internet. No centralized cluster. No whitelist. Anyone with GPUs could join or leave freely. 1/n

DOVISH FED EXPECTED TO BOOST RISK ASSETS IN 2026 After Chair Powell highlighted labor-market worries, markets now price in two or more Fed rate cuts next year. Global X’s Scott Helfstein says a dovish Fed will broadly support risk assets, especially growth stocks, cyclicals, and sectors tied to corporate investment.He recommends infrastructure, copper/materials, AI, data centers, and robotics. Short-duration bonds and gold may underperform, while longer-duration bonds could gain appeal as borrowing costs fall.
