Search 88 dated editions without scrolling through them one by one.
Dates and verification labels belong to the original edition. A past verified announcement can now be outdated. Historical project names are retained; an SN filter searches the slot across registrations. All keywords must match the story text or subnet label. Ratings describe editorial priority, not investment quality.
SubnetRadar recorded a 65,000-alpha SN20 position changing from perpetual to decaying at 02:31 UTC. Network-wide, 29.26 million alpha was locked, 88% perpetual and 12% decaying, with conviction up 4.6% over 24 hours. A decaying position releases continuously on its curve; this is not a guaranteed one-day cliff and does not imply that released alpha will be sold.
SubnetRadar counted 44 of 128 reporting subnets at or above 90% miner burn, up from 43 in yesterday's report. Chutes' first-halving watch stood at 57% of the 10.5 million-alpha threshold with an estimated 428 days remaining. No completed halving, verified registration, deregistration, or slot replacement surfaced before cutoff, and no reliable cutoff emission-share change could be independently reconstructed.
SubnetRadar's 10:00 AM ET tape showed 48% of subnet markets advancing. Green Compute gained 26.1% and OxMarkets fell 15.3%, reversing yesterday's broad weakness without producing a majority-positive market. The move is a market observation, not a claim about project fundamentals.
Within the reporting window, SubnetRadar flagged five historically profitable wallets accumulating Green Compute and estimated that group held more than 30% of current supply. A separate wallet rotated about 602 TAO from gm into Teutonic, while three top wallets removed roughly 550 TAO from Mainframe. Provider labels describe wallet history and observed transactions; they do not establish coordination or intent.
ChronoLLM added a tested NanoExpand architecture that can insert optional residual MLP blocks after selected decoder layers, giving later cutoff years dedicated capacity while preserving earlier knowledge. A separate merge removed ChronoGPT support and the SVD baseline gate and documented a six-stage evaluation pipeline from anti-copy checks through reward distribution. The validator image was then updated to the new build.
Lium's validator now gives every live executor omitted by u16 conversion a one-unit weight floor, funded only from burn entries so earning miners are not diluted. A separate installer hardening merge rejects kernels without ID-mapped overlay mounts and adds Docker 29.5 time-namespace handling. These are deployed-code merges; their effect on miner participation was not yet observable at cutoff.
The team moved its earlier 'this week' guidance to a concrete August 15 mainnet target. The accompanying design rewards the top five miners and adds coldkey and IP checks intended to prevent one operator from occupying multiple rewarded slots. This is a scheduled software release, not an alpha-token unlock.
NOVA merged a substantial inference-path repair that retries failed molecular shards and changes result assembly to use each UID's validated submission structure. Peer-average replacement now drops mismatched score positions with an explicit warning instead of indexing stale rows. The fix targets validator reliability; no performance claim was independently measured.
Hippius added a single marketplace call that moves an active storage subscription between plans without the entitlement gap, resubscribe cooldown, or double billing created by cancel-and-repurchase. The implementation nets refunds against charges, preserves referral attribution, and includes thirteen runtime integration tests. This code landed after Hippius Drive's previously covered launch and is a separate product-layer change.
Cascade's public repository added the scheduled warm-start checkpoint, its origin round, rotation order, and a last-ten-round history table to the miner dashboard, then corrected a live-heat label. The changes make the current training rotation easier for miners to audit; they do not establish a new model-quality result.
Ditto released burn emissions while holding back LongMemEval, a genuine change from yesterday's v9 repair phase. Team messages said top agents were tied around 0.997, so retests are being used to separate scores; embedding traffic moved to Perplexity after reported 429 failures, while a Rizzo failure and validator stalls remained under repair at cutoff.
Affine's challenger connector failures blocked model validation for more than five hours, a new operational failure after yesterday's policy discussion. Participants also reported duplicate or exploit-based models occupying top ranks and disputed queue ordering. These fairness claims remain developing, but the infrastructure outage was broadly reported in the official channel.
The merged release repairs historical alpha issuance and burn accounting, changes the conviction-ownership quorum denominator to eligible alpha, adds Current, Previous and Auto Liquid Alpha consensus modes, retains failed timelock reveals as auditable terminal states, and fixes Finney GRANDPA warp-sync set-ID handling. The merge is strong release evidence, but it is not proof that Finney enacted spec 446 before the cutoff.
SubnetRadar showed 29.23 million alpha locked across 123 subnets, 88% in perpetual mode, with network conviction up 0.2% over 24 hours. Fresh events included two SN88 locks totaling about 17.4k alpha, a 15.0k-alpha SN93 lock followed by a separate 4.4k-alpha on-chain reduction, and a 10-alpha OxMarkets flip to perpetual. No event supplied a future date and amount that qualifies for Unlock Watch; decaying positions release continuously rather than as guaranteed one-day cliffs.
SubnetRadar counted 43 of 128 reporting subnets at or above 90% miner burn, down from 45 in yesterday's coverage. The cutoff screener showed gm's emission share rising about 0.30 percentage points in one hour to 1.68%, while Chutes remained the largest share at 12.10%. Targon's first-halving watch advanced to 57% of 10.5 million alpha with an estimated 555 days remaining. No verified halving, registration, deregistration, or slot replacement occurred inside the window.
At the 10:00 AM ET cutoff, 41 of 128 subnet markets were positive and 87 were negative, with roughly 177,642 TAO of displayed 24-hour volume. Leadpoet gained 42.7%, TAO Private Network rose 23.6%, and MVTRX added 13.2%; SN70 fell 12.2%, cascade lost 11.3%, and ConnitoAI declined 8.9%. SubnetRadar independently calculated that 31% were rising, with the small difference attributable to snapshot timing and methodology.
SubnetRadar recorded repeated profitable-wallet buys and sells in engy during the window, including a 600 TAO whale stake and later clusters moving in both directions. The cutoff screener still showed engy up 4.1% over 24 hours but about 137 TAO of estimated one-hour reserve outflow. Leadpoet showed about 176 TAO of estimated one-hour inflow, while iota and Bitcast showed roughly 231 and 160 TAO of outflow. Provider labels describe wallet history, not motive or coordination.
Blockmachine's public validator repository merged two payout changes: weights now normalize against the largest submitted weight instead of miner burn, and the payout scale can fill the available pool subject to a fail-closed bound. These are code-level incentive changes; observed miner outcomes were not yet available at the cutoff.
Beam simplified recovery-chunk assignment so orchestrators receive chunks directly in PRISM-score order instead of through owner-group averages. A second merge removed automatic Sunday score resets, leaving resets operator-driven through an explicit timestamp. Both changes are merged in the public core repository; production effects remain to be measured.
After v9 activation was reported yesterday, Ditto merged new fixes for hosted embedding throttling and fallback, versioned practice datasets, frozen-cohort rollout, and false copy holds caused by subnet-published source material. This is a material continuation, not a repeat of the activation story; longer-run benchmark stability remains developing.
