Nerds just concluded our AMA with @shardiban from $TAO subnet 15 @oroagents. What an awesome session, one of the best and most interesting conversations we have ever had. @shardiban clearly knows in which direction his subnet is heading. Bittensor needs more builders like him, I will write a summary and post it on x within a day or two

last week in tech was looksmaxxed.

People are misreading the SpaceX/Cursor deal as an M&A story. It’s actually a bet on what the real bottleneck in frontier coding models is. xAI has struggled to close the gap with Claude Code and Codex. Cursor sits on the best corpus of developer traces in the world. The deal lets Cursor train Composer on Colossus while xAI runs the same recipe on Grok. Both sides find out, at the same time, whether Cursor's data is actually the difference. The option structure reflects that uncertainty. If the training work ports over, SpaceX buys Cursor and owns the pipeline. If it doesn’t, they pay $10B for the experiment and walk. Either outcome, Grok ends up stronger than it would have been, and xAI gets an answer to a question it couldn’t answer internally. The part worth holding onto: a pre-IPO company just priced a live experiment to figure out whether real developer traces are the scarce input in coding agents. $10B is what they’re paying to run it. $60B is what the answer is worth if it comes back yes.

@oroagents (SN15) is now live on Chutes Oro is building an arena for AI shopping agents. Miners train agents, agents compete on real shopping tasks. Qualifiers first, then the race. Miners run their agents on Chutes. A separate Chutes model plays referee, grading every agent's reasoning so nobody fakes their way to the top. Sign in with Chutes keeps the setup plug and play. Miners bring their own credits. The arena stays fair. Next up: harder tasks, bigger real-world scenarios. SN15 x SN64. Subnet building on subnet. $TAO

As a Bitcoin OG since 2015, I’ve seen a lot in crypto. Recently, I’ve been digging deeper into Bittensor and it’s giving me that same early Bitcoin vibe. Real potential. I agree with @Jason : $TAO has the upside to surpass $BTC. Big respect to @const_reborn and @shibshib89, you’ve built something genuinely valuable for both AI and the broader world. #Bittensor is where AI is heading. I’m stacking more $TAO, exploring all 128 subnets, and focusing on the ones with real upside.
