The week is only half done and already:
• All-time fulfillment volume has grown nearly 5x
• The number of participating miners has doubled
• A baseline fulfillment model is now open-source, kickstarting model competition and lowering the barrier to fulfillment
Accelerate.
Proud to announce Leadpoet’s partnership with @ExaAILabs, giving our builders access to best-in-class search infrastructure for AI agents.
Exa helps AI agents uncover hard-to-find web data and ground outputs with accurate, direct sources. Its work powering web grounding for Gemini on Google Cloud reflects the level of accuracy and reliability we want for the Leadpoet ecosystem.
Builders on Leadpoet can now claim $1,000 in Exa credits to bring high-accuracy, real-time web context into their AI sales agents and workflows.
Excited to kick this off as our first infrastructure partner.
I'll be going live with Gavin from @LeadpoetAI tomorrow at 11am EST to hear about all their latest updates on building out AI Lead Generation using Bittensor!

Fulfillment is live.
Every lead request now becomes a real-time competition across miners.
Miners race to surface the highest-signal leads. Validators score quality, accuracy, and intent. Rewards flow to the best fulfilled outputs.
This is how the subnet turns demand into a flywheel.
The new Leadpoet subnet dashboard is live.
Two incentive mechanisms, now both visible in real time. Fulfillment rewards the miners who provide leads that pass validator scoring on ICP fit, intent, and quality. The model competition rewards the miner whose model raises the floor everyone else builds on.
Accelerate.

We’re excited to announce the return of our X Spaces series following an incredible first session, which saw over 800 participants tune in from across the ecosystem.
As we continue spotlighting the rapidly growing Bittensor ecosystem, our second session will focus on one of the
@RadoTsc When we acquired the slot OTC, we didn’t receive alpha supply with it. So we’re in a different position than teams that already have a large alpha balance available to lock.
As our runway strengthens, we’ll be able to start locking.
We’re really excited about Bittensor’s conviction upgrade.
To us, it feels like the right direction: a clearer way for teams to show long-term alignment while still having the flexibility to keep building.
Our situation is a bit different from other teams, and we want to be upfront about that. When we acquired our slot OTC, we didn’t receive alpha like many teams do today, so locking immediately would impact our runway more than it might for others.
But we’re committed to getting there and confident we’ll be in a position to show the conviction we have on chain.
Looking forward to sharing more updates on both the business and subnet side in our podcast next Tuesday with @GordonFrayne.
