With the amount of new subnets being added it can be hard to get up to date information across all subnets, so data may be slightly out of date from time to time
Investing is a Bittensor subnet dedicated to optimizing staking strategies within the Tao/Alpha ecosystem. Developed by the community for the community, it extends its services to both retail and institutional investors.
In this subnet, miners contribute their staking strategies, while validators assess these strategies using a specific scoring algorithm. The outcomes of these evaluations are transparently displayed on the StakingAlpha.com dashboard, providing users with clear insights into performance metrics.
The business model and innovations of this subnet are designed for applicability across both cryptocurrency and traditional financial markets. By extracting alpha from these markets, minimizing risks, and delivering optimized portfolio returns, the subnet aims to serve a broad spectrum of investors within the global $145 trillion asset management industry.

In the Investing subnet of Bittensor, participants known as miners develop and submit staking strategies aimed at optimizing returns within the Tao/Alpha ecosystem. These strategies are automatically submitted when placed in the Investing/strat/ directory. Miners have the flexibility to update or “rebalance” their strategies as needed; such revisions are automatically resubmitted based on the updated timestamp. It’s important to note that altering subnet allocations may result in slippage costs. All strategy updates are promptly reflected on the StakingAlpha.com dashboard, with daily score calculations occurring after midnight UTC. While a single machine can operate multiple miners with their respective strategies, submitting new or revised strategies that closely resemble existing ones may lead to reduced scores. Additionally, newly registered miners benefit from a three-day immunity period.
The subnet employs a comprehensive scoring algorithm that evaluates strategies based on factors such as return, volatility, drawdown, slippage, and timeframe. This multifaceted approach acknowledges that investment preferences vary among individuals, considering differences in style, risk tolerance, capital availability, and investment horizons. The scoring system is designed to be refined and updated over time to ensure its effectiveness. Miners are encouraged to focus on long-term portfolio management strategies rather than short-term trades in isolated instruments. The overarching goal is to consistently outperform the market by enhancing alpha while mitigating beta. For those new to portfolio management, concepts like Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT) and the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) can serve as valuable starting points for optimizing strategies using machine learning techniques. To assist in this process, the standalone tool Sταking/bin/simst is available for backtesting strategies and fine-tuning performance based on historical market data.

Novelty Search is great, but for most investors trying to understand Bittensor, the technical depth is a wall, not a bridge. If we’re going to attract investment into this ecosystem then we need more people to understand it! That’s why Siam Kidd and Mark Creaser from DSV Fund have launched Revenue Search, where they ask the simple questions that investors want to know the answers to.
Recorded in September 2025, this Revenue Search episode features the team behind Subnet 88, Investing. Led by Jake, Glenn, and Josh, Investing is building a decentralized Wall Street—an asset management platform where miners contribute investment strategies across asset classes like TAO staking, U.S. equities, forex, and more. By combining diverse strategies, rebalancing, and long-term optimization, Subnet 88 aims to deliver reduced risk and enhanced returns, positioning itself as a decentralized alternative to BlackRock. The discussion explores their scientific approach to portfolio construction, monetization through AUM fees and signal provision, partnerships with funds like Mobius, and how they prioritize supporting miners as the backbone of their ecosystem.
Collateral is on 88’s roadmap, thanks to @0xarrash. Stay tuned
being transparent, helping both 88 & 118 with direction / feedback on IM. No fee, no advisory, just for the love of the game to see others succeed.
Bittensor just changed how new TAO is distributed.
No longer based on Alpha EMA prices, now driven by net TAO inflows.
This makes Subnet 118 more critical than ever for ecosystem health.
Here's how conviction becomes cash flow in the new Flow based world: 🧵👇
The Eihwaz rune ᛇ symbolizes the cycle of life, transformation, and perseverance. 88 is the only subnet having our symbol censored for PC silliness. But thanks to @const_reborn, ᛇ is back!
Just like the symbol, 88 itself will come back much stronger. Major updates coming soon!
Helping the @Investing88ai team get this going and powering Subnet118 with @TrustedStake's indexes has been incredible.
118 is not only creating an entirely new secondary market for TrustedStake's indexes with a novel revenue model driving alpha token buybacks.
But they also…
