KR1 supports the assessment of service provider performance through staking and receives a portion of the network rewards. There is no mandatory unbonding period for TAO unstaking, allowing the company to retrieve its holdings immediately after unstaking. Rewards can be retained to expand the scale of productive assets or can be liquidated for subsequent investments and operational costs. The company will also disclose its TAO holdings and related infrastructure income in monthly unaudited updates.Keld van Schreven, Managing Director and Co-Founder of KR1, stated: "As artificial intelligence enables more complex tasks to be performed by software, the demand for infrastructure related to supply-side intelligence is expected to grow significantly. Bittensor introduces open competition for the supply of AI services, and the company is focused on how its incentives are forming services that lead to continuous customer payments, as well as how to deploy TAO holdings to enhance the value and income potential of productive digital assets per share." KR1 claims to be the only publicly listed company on the main board of the London Stock Exchange that focuses on on-chain infrastructure, holding and operating productive digital assets on the relevant network.

In 2025, there were approximately 20 financing rounds in the domestic tactile sensor sector, with a total disclosed amount nearing 1.8 billion yuan. According to data from the Financial Association, in the first seven months of 2026, there were 15 financing rounds completed in the humanoid robot sensor field, totaling 3.1 billion yuan, with July alone accounting for 1.56 billion yuan. Related estimates indicate that the global tactile sensor market size will be around 6 billion yuan in 2026 and approximately 29 billion yuan in 2030.The tactile sensor company, PaxiNi, was founded by Xu Jincheng and Nie Xiangru in June 2021 in Shenzhen, with the Hall array sensor PX-6AX GEN3 starting at a price of 199 yuan. The company completed over 1 billion yuan in Series B financing in March, with a valuation exceeding 10 billion yuan, followed by 1 billion yuan in strategic financing in August and several hundred million yuan in B++ financing in September, accumulating over 4 billion yuan in total financing, with BYD as the largest external shareholder. On September 20, PaxiNi completed its counseling filing with the Beijing Securities Regulatory Bureau, with Guotai Junan as the counseling institution.The tactile perception chip company, Tashan Technology, was founded by Ma Yang, Sun Tengchen, and Yang Wuqiang in December 2017, with revenue exceeding 100 million yuan in 2024, and was listed by NVIDIA as the world's first tactile simulation partner for Isaac Sim. Qianjue Robotics was founded by Ma Daolin in May 2024, with Hillhouse Capital having led the angel round, and in September of this year, it completed two rounds of strategic financing totaling several hundred million yuan. Companies such as Daimeng, Weitai, Xiangmuguo, Yimu Technology, and Lingxin Qiaoshou also secured new financing or advanced higher valuation financing in 2026.

Coinkarma founder Benson Sun posted that around 11 PM on October 1, both the US stock market and gold weakened simultaneously, but the Binance BTC/USDT spot market saw a continuous market buy order of about 400 BTC, supporting the price above $84,000, and ultimately the candlestick formed a doji.Around 1:30 AM on October 3, within the same price range, the market briefly saw about 1,400 BTC market sell orders, causing the price to drop rapidly and form a long lower shadow, but it still held in that area. The candlestick showed that approximately 100 BTC sell orders appeared every few seconds, but the price was quickly pulled back by buy orders after each dip.Benson Sun pointed out that this area highly overlaps with the recent rapid accumulation of on-chain chips in the $83,000 to $84,000 range. Combining the spot order flow with on-chain data, it is judged that there is active capital support in this price range, and the buying response was quite evident after BTC entered this area.

Cryptocurrency KOL and former FTX community partner Benson Sun stated that he expects the current Bitcoin market to show a gradual new high slow bull trend, rather than forming a clear top after a rapid short-term rise like in 2013 and 2017. Before the true cycle top arrives, the market may experience multiple local top signals. He believes that after 2021, the main buyers of BTC have gradually shifted from retail investors to institutions such as publicly listed companies, spot ETFs, and corporate treasuries.Since institutions mainly buy spot, some funds will also use Delta Neutral strategies for arbitrage, and traditional indicators such as funding rates and MVRV Z-Score may not rise to extreme levels again at the cycle top. Recently, the cycle top is more likely to manifest as institutional funds losing momentum rather than retail sentiment becoming overly heated. The Institutional Liquidity Index (ILI) mainly references overall dollar liquidity, the mNAV of Strategy, and the net flow of Bitcoin ETFs to determine whether institutional funds follow up when BTC reaches new highs. When BTC sets a new rolling 30-day high while ILI does not rise simultaneously, it constitutes a yellow divergence; when BTC breaks historical highs while ILI diverges and is below 50, it constitutes a red divergence.Benson Sun indicated that he would use the frequency of yellow divergences as a reference for judging the cycle process: each occurrence would lead to a proper reduction in altcoin positions and leverage; as the market enters the later stages, he would gradually increase the proportion of BTC and ultimately retain only spot. If a red divergence occurs, he would stop participating further.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin stated that China and the United States have agreed to extend the trade truce agreement until January 10 of next year.Foreign Ministry spokesperson Geng Shuang suggested inquiring with the relevant Chinese authorities about the status of China-U.S. economic and trade consultations.

Subnet Summer announced that the August edition of the SubConnect Bittensor Revenue Index shows that Bittensor has officially entered the "Revenue Era." Currently, 24 to 25 subnets are generating actual commercial revenue, and it is expected that by the end of the year, the number of revenue-generating subnets will increase to 35 to 40; the total annual ecosystem revenue is estimated to be between 28 million and 35 million USD, and it is expected to exceed 100 million USD by the end of 2026.In addition, revenue is beginning to provide direct financial support for the token economy. About 14 subnets have launched revenue-driven Alpha token buyback programs, which are expected to reach 20 to 25 by the end of the year. Business activities are concentrated in three major areas: infrastructure, enterprise-level AI, and applied AI. The report points out that the criteria for measuring subnet maturity are increasingly shifting towards customer adoption rates rather than benchmark scores. Token releases have provided funding support for the first phase of Bittensor, while customers are beginning to fund the next phase.

According to the official announcement from Chainlink, Bittensor's TAO token has landed on Robinhood Chain through the bridge Forever Money built on the Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), achieving a 1:1 native existence of TAO in the second major chain environment.

The non-profit Ethereum development lab Ethlabs published an article outlining its priority recommendations for Ethereum's next network upgrade, Hegotá. Ethlabs listed the following directions as top priorities: strengthening censorship resistance (EIP-7805 FOCIL has been confirmed as the top proposal); making Ethereum faster (suggesting the addition of EIP-8198 Quick Slots to reduce slot time and improve confirmation speed and finality); native account abstraction (recommending EIP-8141 Frame Transactions to support Passkey wallets, ERC20 Gas payments, batch transactions, and privacy, etc.); continuous L1 scaling (recommending EIP-8131 and EIP-8279 to enhance capacity and predictability).

Blockstream CEO Adam Back criticized the arguments of BIP-110 supporters, stating that the claim "Bitcoin supports spam data" is incorrect, and that all Bitcoin participants dislike network spam data. Adam Back pointed out that Bitcoin cannot achieve absolute censorship at a mathematical level, and that the BIP-110 proposal itself has many flaws that prevent it from functioning effectively, thus it has not gained network consensus. He emphasized that forcibly pushing rule changes without consensus could ultimately lead to a fork similar to Bitcoin SV (BSV).Previously, BIP-110 sparked community controversy for attempting to limit non-financial data storage on the Bitcoin blockchain. Supporters of the proposal planned to push for rule changes through a user-activated soft fork (UASF), but currently, miner support has not reached the activation requirement, and the market is concerned whether this controversy will further evolve into a split in Bitcoin network governance.

DeFi infrastructure company Enso disclosed in a report a type of malicious liquidity pool called "toxic pools," which manipulates trading simulations to return false optimal quotes to wallets and DEX aggregators, and alters logic during actual on-chain execution. Enso stated that the relevant malicious contracts can identify read-only simulation environments and return optimized prices, but once the trades are broadcasted on-chain, they execute at worse prices or result in transaction failures.A manipulated Curve pool processed over 129,000 exchanges, resulting in approximately $225,000 in inflated quotes, with over 37,000 transactions rolling back and consuming nearly $30,000 in gas fees. On Polygon, a malicious Uniswap v4 hook attracted routing systems with false exchange rates, subsequently triggering a 99.1% transaction failure rate. Enso stated that it has updated its execution protection product Enso Shield to detect false quotes in Ethereum and Polygon environments.

Digital Currency Group (DCG) subsidiary Yuma announced the launch of a market-wide fund aimed at providing investment opportunities in the Bittensor network's native token TAO and its subnet ecosystem through a single investment strategy. Currently, Bittensor has launched 128 subnets, with a total asset value exceeding $900 million.DCG founder and CEO Barry Silbert stated that most AI investments are currently flowing to a few centralized legacy companies, which are now trying to enter the public market. Bittensor offers an alternative: an open, decentralized network built by builders and innovators at the forefront of artificial intelligence development.

According to Cointelegraph, Swiss Web3 development platform Enso has launched an RWA application and opened trading for over 500 tokenized assets, including US stocks, ETFs, US Treasuries, commodities, and stablecoins. The platform provides users with a unified asset distribution and execution layer by integrating xStocks, Ondo Finance, and Anchorage Digital's Porto.The tradable assets include stocks from major US tech companies such as Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, Tesla, and SpaceX. Enso co-founder and CEO Connor Howe stated that European investors' demand for exposure to the US market and 24/7 trading continues to grow.Meanwhile, data from RWA.xyz shows that the number of on-chain tokenized asset holders has increased by 13.4% over the past 30 days, reaching approximately 930,000 people. In terms of scale, tokenized US Treasuries rank first at $15 billion, tokenized commodities reach $4.6 billion, and tokenized stocks are approximately $1.6 billion.

Bittensor co-founder const posted on the X platform, detailing the current state of decentralization of the project, future roadmap, and goals. Bittensor has not yet achieved decentralization at the economic incentive layer, which is still led by the core team, including const himself, two engineers, and a core group of contributors. The project has been live for over 5 years, with no pre-mining, and has 128 subnet teams and over 20 core validator teams, achieving decentralization at the ownership distribution level. The team chose to rapidly iterate at the cost of "maintaining centralization" rather than slowly advancing "democratic" decision-making.Regarding future update plans, Bittensor will promote validators to re-enter the competitive mechanism while opening liquidity pools for two-way investment to symmetrize the market and prevent on-chain signals from being manipulated. Additionally, a belief mechanism will be introduced to grant voting rights to Alpha token holders. In the coming weeks, updates will also be made to TaoFlow and its derivatives, further fine-tuning the issuance distribution algorithm to optimize the distribution method of inflation. Const expects to complete the construction of core mechanisms within the next year and a half, at which point the three pillars of incentive alignment, value optimization, and true ownership will operate in synergy, ultimately achieving complete decentralization by abandoning centralized control.
