Vanta (Bittensor Subnet 8, formerly known as the Proprietary Trading Network or PTN) is a decentralized proprietary trading network built on the Bittensor blockchain. Its core function is to crowdsource advanced trading strategies from a global pool of participants and turn them into high-quality trading signals. In essence, Vanta operates like a decentralized hedge fund or prop trading firm: traders from around the world (acting as “miners” in the network) contribute algorithmic strategies and AI-driven market predictions, which are then evaluated and combined into a superior composite strategy. The network leverages artificial intelligence and machine learning to analyze financial market data and generate advanced insights that help users make informed trading decisions. By tapping Bittensor’s blockchain and incentive system, Vanta creates an open, peer-to-peer competition where the best trading ideas rise to the top, and those who produce them are rewarded accordingly.
This subnet’s mission is to democratize access to sophisticated trading strategies that were once limited to elite hedge funds or wealthy investors. Vanta “crowdsources” the expertise of quantitative traders and data scientists (the subnet’s miners) and makes the best-performing trading signals available to everyday investors. Through an open, transparent competition, it bridges the gap between institutional-grade strategies and the general public, empowering anyone to benefit from hedge-fund-quality trading intelligence. In short, Vanta transforms individually developed strategies into a collective “super strategy” – a constantly adapting set of trading signals that aim to consistently outperform the market. By building on Bittensor’s decentralized AI network, Vanta ensures the system is competitive, fair, and censorship-resistant, with all contributions and performance tracking recorded on-chain for transparency.

Vanta’s product is essentially a decentralized trading platform and signal-generation engine. Technically, it is implemented as a Bittensor subnet with its own network of nodes fulfilling specialized roles. Traders and quants act as “miners” on Vanta – they run machine learning models or algorithms that generate predictions or trading signals for financial markets. On the other side, “validators” in the subnet query these miner models and rigorously evaluate their outputs. Validators score each strategy’s performance using a suite of advanced financial metrics (e.g. returns, drawdown, Sharpe ratio, Omega ratio) and verify how well the predictions match actual market movements. This architecture allows the network to track each trader’s risk-adjusted returns in real time and ensure only the most effective strategies receive the highest rewards. The end-product of this build is a stream of high-quality trading signals – the “digital commodity” produced by Subnet 8 – which can be packaged into investment products or used by anyone seeking market insights.
Under the hood, Vanta operates a continuous competition model for traders. Participants must first prove their strategy’s worth by joining a 60-day on-chain trading challenge. Over this period, their performance is tracked and compared against others. Only those in roughly the top 25% who also meet risk management criteria (e.g. no more than 10% drawdown and at least 60 days of activity) are deemed successful. Those who pass this challenge effectively become long-term miners in the subnet and start earning continuous rewards. Vanta’s blockchain smart contract rewards them every time a new block is produced (approximately hourly) based on their up-to-date performance. Notably, the network’s design emphasizes real-time feedback and dynamic incentives: it continuously evaluates miners’ returns and adjusts rewards on-the-fly if a trader’s performance deviates from their 90-day historical average, thereby promoting consistency. In other words, if a once high-performing strategy starts faltering, its rewards taper down, whereas consistently strong performers are boosted – this encourages reliability over lucky one-off wins.
Key features of the Vanta network’s build include:
Intraday Market Predictions: Vanta initially focused on intraday Bitcoin price forecasts, and has since expanded to other assets. The platform is built to handle high-frequency time-series predictions, starting with crypto markets (BTC and additional trading pairs) and broadening out to other financial markets. Miners can use provided infrastructure (like standardized financial indicators and a base LSTM model) to build models for forecasting short-term price moves.
Robust Reward Mechanism: The subnet offers higher and faster payouts to top performers than earlier Bittensor iterations. Miners are rewarded only for accurate predictions of future data – the network compares each submitted prediction to actual market outcomes once they occur, and allocates rewards proportionally to performance. Thanks to on-chain automation, payouts to miners happen much faster (near real-time) than traditional hedge fund profit-sharing, aligning incentives in real time.
Low Barrier to Entry: Participating in Vanta doesn’t require significant capital – there are lower registration/staking fees for miners compared to typical prop trading firms. Anyone with Bittensor’s native token (TAO) can register a miner, and the software is open-source. Taoshi (the team behind Vanta) provides open frameworks and even example models (via HuggingFace and their GitHub) to help new participants get started quickly. This openness lowers the entry bar for talented data scientists or traders who want to contribute strategies.
Advanced Performance Analytics: The Vanta subnet distinguishes itself with a sophisticated scoring system for strategies. It doesn’t just rank traders by profit, but by risk-adjusted performance. Key metrics include Sharpe ratio, Omega ratio, drawdowns, and consistency over time. The network uses a rolling 90-day performance window to evaluate each miner’s sustained quality, rather than short-term lucky streaks. This 90-day lookback builds trust that anyone earning rewards has proven their strategy’s efficacy over a meaningful period.
“Blended” Super-Strat Model: Uniquely, Vanta doesn’t rely on any single model – it integrates many strategies. Taoshi’s internal quant team takes the top-performing outputs from the subnet’s miners and combines them into a meta-strategy (often referred to as the “super strategy”) that adapts to market conditions in real time. This blended approach means the final trading signal is diversified across strategies, potentially more robust than any individual model. It also means end-users can access a composite intelligence that reflects the collective alpha of many traders, rather than having to pick a single strategy. This composite signal is what powers Taoshi’s upcoming wealth management products.
Overall, the technical architecture of Vanta is built on Bittensor’s decentralized AI infrastructure, ensuring the system is open-source, trustless, and scalable. All miner contributions and validator scores are recorded on the blockchain, enabling full transparency into performance data and reward distribution. By using blockchain smart contracts and a native subnet token (see Roadmap), Vanta aligns the incentives of traders, validators, and end-users. The result is a competitive yet collaborative trading network: traders compete to generate the best signals, but together they create a product (the aggregated signal feed) that benefits the wider community of investors. The product/build can thus be viewed in two parts – the decentralized platform/competition that produces signals, and the consumable signal output that can be used via applications or platforms (for example, Taoshi’s Glitch app) to inform real trading decisions.

Vanta’s development roadmap reflects its rapid evolution from a concept to a full-fledged decentralized trading ecosystem. Here is an overview of major milestones and future plans for Subnet 8 – Vanta:
2023 – Project Inception: Taoshi, Inc. was founded in 2023, and Subnet 8 (at that time referred to as the Time-Series Prediction Subnet or PTN) launched with a primary focus on Bitcoin price prediction. In this initial phase, the subnet’s goal was narrow: prove that a decentralized network of AI models could accurately forecast BTC intraday movements. Early participants built models for BTC/USD, and the network established its basic miner-validator structure. Even at this stage, the vision was to expand beyond just one asset; the team planned to gradually add more cryptocurrency trading pairs and eventually other financial instruments as the subnet matured.
2024 – Expansion and Pivot to “Prop Trading Network”: Over the course of 2024, Subnet 8 expanded its scope and underwent a pivotal transformation. Realizing the potential to do more than just price prediction, Arrash and his team pivoted from a pure prediction subnet to a full decentralized proprietary trading network. This meant moving from a single-task (predicting BTC) to supporting diverse strategies across multiple asset classes like forex, crypto, equities, etc.. Importantly, this transition introduced the concept of live trading signals (a signal-based network) rather than waiting solely for end-of-horizon price predictions. The pivot was accomplished without taking the network offline – an impressive technical feat, as they effectively upgraded the subnet on the fly to handle more data and more complex evaluation criteria. By late 2024, Vanta was aggregating strategies not just on crypto, but also on other highly liquid markets, positioning itself as a general trading signals subnet. In October 2024, Taoshi launched Glitch Financial, a subsidiary platform that serves as the user-friendly interface for Vanta’s signals. Glitch is a non-custodial SaaS platform where end-users (retail or institutional) can connect their exchange accounts and mirror the “super strategy” generated by the subnet. The launch of Glitch (initially in closed alpha) marked the first step to bringing Vanta’s output to mainstream investors.
Early 2025 – Tokenization and Feature Enhancements: In Q1 2025, the Bittensor network introduced subnet-specific tokens (“alpha” tokens) for each subnet, and Vanta launched its own native token within the Bittensor ecosystem. This token (often referred to as Vanta’s alpha token) is used for staking and governance in Subnet 8, and provides an economic layer for value capture of the subnet’s commodity (trading signals). With the token launch, TAO holders could swap into the Vanta subnet token and stake it to validators or miners, aligning incentives and enabling market-driven governance over the subnet’s resources. Around the same time, Taoshi ramped up the trading competition aspect: by 2025 the subnet was running an ongoing competition with an annualized rewards pool of over $30 million worth of tokens for top traders. This huge reward mechanism – the largest of its kind for trading signals – was set to attract talent from traditional finance. Also in early 2025, Glitch Financial progressed from closed alpha to beta testing. According to Taoshi’s roadmap, Glitch’s beta opened in early Q1 2025 to more users (including some partnered wealth managers), and a full public launch of Glitch was expected by end of Q1 2025. This means everyday users would soon be able to subscribe to or implement Vanta’s AI-powered strategies through a polished app, marking the commercialization of the subnet’s output.
2025 and Beyond – Future Plans: Looking ahead, the Vanta team has several key developments in the pipeline. One major goal is EVM integration – Taoshi plans to integrate an EVM-compatible layer and smart contracts into the subnet. This would allow more complex on-chain logic for executing trades or managing strategy portfolios trustlessly, and even enable interoperability with Ethereum-based DeFi (for example, automated strategy vaults or on-chain hedge funds that directly plug into Vanta’s signals). Additionally, EVM integration could let community developers build smart contracts that query Vanta’s signals and execute trades, expanding the utility of the subnet. Another roadmap item is continuously expanding the range of asset classes and prediction domains. Having started with crypto and forex, Vanta could extend into stocks, commodities, or even non-financial predictions as the network grows. In fact, the project has hinted that in the future miners might tackle entirely new categories like sports betting odds or other user-requested forecasting challenges, leveraging the flexible design of the subnet to accommodate any time-series prediction task. Furthermore, Taoshi will focus on community growth and talent acquisition – attracting top traders and quants remains a priority (the team often discusses lowering barriers to entry and improving tutorials to onboard more talent). We can also expect ongoing improvements to the scoring algorithms and risk management features, to keep the network’s performance competitive. Finally, as Glitch gains users, Taoshi might explore a revenue model where the subnet (and its token holders) benefit from subscription fees or performance fees generated by the Glitch platform, creating a sustainable economic loop for Vanta as a business.
In summary, Vanta’s journey is one of continuous innovation: from a single-asset predictor to a multi-asset AI trading network, from an experimental subnet to a growing decentralized prop firm with a consumer-facing platform. The roadmap ahead involves technical upgrades like EVM/smart contracts, broader market coverage, and scaling up the community of skilled traders. With these developments, Subnet 8 – Vanta is poised to solidify its role as the trading signals powerhouse of Bittensor, bringing ever more sophisticated strategies into the decentralized finance world and redefining how wealth generation can be crowdsourced and shared globally.
