Anyone have a request for a #predictionmarket?

@heather11666 Well chat with the devs but we know it's a high priority since the Alpha token we were using no longer exists, so we'll hopefully get a new utility token up in the next week or so. Realistically the easiest is probably Tao, but hopefully we can add USDC within a couple weeks.

@candlestao How long do you think it will take to be able to use USDC?

🕯️ A Message to Our Community 🕯️ Thank you to everyone who supported us while building Candles on Subnet 31. It's been an incredible journey and we wouldn't trade this experience for anything. The lessons learned, relationships built, and product created - all invaluable. Moving Forward: We know we have a great product and roadmap that brings a unique spin to prediction markets. We're continuing to build. What's Coming: 🚀 Expansion to ALL Prediction Markets - internal testing begins in days - Sports, politics, entertainment, economic events - the full vision - Manual resolutions first (verified sources), - AI automation in development 💰 Utility Token Change - moving from SN31 Alpha to TAO, USDC, or another crypto imminently More accessible and flexible platform Details coming soon Our Path: Building independently from Bittensor for now, but continuing to evaluate options. We may return as a subnet in the future. The technology works. The model is proven. The vision is clear. We're committed to seeing it through. Thank You: To everyone who deposited TAO, made predictions, provided feedback, created content, and believed in what we're building - thank you. We'll still be around, contributing to Bittensor in whatever form that may be. Follow our progress: 🔗 discord.gg/FcPzBmrtMG🔗 x.com/candlestao🔗 pools.candlestao.com This isn't an ending. It's a transition. The Candles journey continues. 🔥 — The Candles Team #Bittensor $TAO #SN31

@Ch3RN0b0G Right now our boosted pool has an extra 100 Alpha in the prize pool on top of the regular entries! x.com/i/status/20031…

Nice example of how the winner of this hourly pool did over a 9x on his 2 alpha entry....not bad ROI if you ask me. Even 2nd place did a 4.59x on his 2 alpha entry. @candlestao is the future of #PredictionMarkets

Thanks for the support guys! We're still fighting and pushing. We're going to keep building and developing out the roadmap. It's absolutely wild to us that we are honest, transparent, and DELIVERED on our roadmap items and somehow we're "At Risk" of Dereg ahead of subnets that haven't even posted what they're doing. Something isn't right... #Bittensor $TAO #SaveSN31

@bittingthembits @candlestao Too much good innovation 'at risk' or already gone. Hope these guys catch a break.

#SN31 Candles We just launched our #PredictionMarkets yesterday. The SN31 Alpha token is the utility token within the site creating a real use case for Alpha. pools.candlestao.com We are lowering the barriers to entry for non-technical #Bittensor participants to earn Alpha just like miners but without needing to code or register a miner. We will be expanding to all prediction markets and also accepting other crypto for deposits. Accepting $USDC, $BTC, $ETH etc will mean bringing in fresh liquidity from all of crypto into the Bittensor ecosystem. Every deposit will turn into a $TAO purchase and then an #SN31 purchase. Any crypto --> TAO --> SN31. The team includes a former OTF senior dev and two co-founders that have founded subnets since pre dtao. We're happy to answer any questions you might have or to jump on a call to chat.

As a fellow subnet owner, I'd recommend joining the @SubnetSummerTAO telegram group and the dtao discord price talk channel and sharing your vision for the subnet and answering any questions people have in there. Having a presence in those groups can definitely help save from deregistration. Feel free to reach out if you want to chat.

We are moving at full speed to avoid the subnet’s deregistration. An immediate action plan is already in motion. 👇

Ok $TAO gang, chill me your subnet.

🕯️ THE BARRIERS ARE GONE 🕯️ For the first time, ANYONE can earn Bittensor subnet alpha without: ❌ Expensive compute ❌ Technical knowledge ❌ Running a miner ❌ Coding skills ❌ Hardware investments Just your market insight and predictions.

Here are a few aspects about Candles #SN31: - We're doing our public launch TOMORROW! - We're starting with $TAO, $BTC, $ETH predictions, but we will quickly be expanding to all prediction markets. - Our predictions include a binary AND detailed prediction, creating a more granular data set - The SN31 alpha token is the utility token for our site, and everything is done in SN31. Deposits are in $TAO and are used to buy back SN31. - Candles pools are structured similarly to Draft Kings and Fan Duel pools in terms of each entry is scored and ranked. The top 3 entries get paid.

@wahootsubnet How is this different from what @candlestao is trying to do?

We are thrilled to announce the new Subnet 30 on Bittensor, Wahooτ! Wahooτ is bringing the largest prediction market to $TAO, built around live, real-world events that resolve against objective outcomes. No simulations, no synthetic benchmarks. Predictions stand or fall based on what actually happens, and accuracy compounds over time. Through @Wahoopredict, markets span global news, economics, technology, politics, sports, and culture. Humans and AI participate side by side in the same markets, under the same rules, evaluated purely on performance. This is what makes Bittensor the ideal home. Subnet architecture, competitive miners, and rigorous validators create a rare environment where intelligence can be tested openly and rewarded transparently. This launch is just the beginning. We’re committed to building, scaling, improving, and collaborating closely with miners, validators, and the broader Bittensor community as the subnet evolves. We’re excited to be here, excited to ship, and looking forward to building something meaningful together. Let the market decide.
