One card per story, grouped by what kind of story it is. Sourcing quality runs across the top of every card.
The fixed 18 / 41 / 41 split is gone: owners choose within owner 0–33%, validators ≤50%, miners ≥33%, once a week, with root paid off the top (release notes, @taostats). Four of the first seven movers went straight to the 33% owner maximum; SN103 was deregistered eight hours later (@TensiaBot).
Set at 20:00 UTC, two hours after eTAO went live: "we're cutting our own take by almost half" as a bet that higher miner rewards bring better miners; validators lose one point, so staker yield is essentially unchanged (@almnc_ai, chain event).
Owner 0 / validators 50 / miners 50 ("removing owner emissions is part of a subnet's maturation"); the team also says October's first 18 days of buybacks already beat all of September and 5,000+ traders have registered since February (@0xarrash, buybacks, traders).
Quarterly update: €370K from EverBlueGreen, a lab in Andorra opened 15 Oct, a CTO hired; contracts with German Solar Power (docked drone patrols of Greek solar plants, on-site test Q1 2027) and MEVI Drons (avalanche control at Andorra's largest ski resort) (@SwarmSubnet).
TAO holdings up more than 6x since March 2025; last quarter's staking revenue covered operating costs 2.7x at an 8.0% annualised yield; no debt, no preferred shares (@kariasamaroo).
AI Safety Score (robustness score, adversarial testing, reports) from $99; the roadmap adds fine-tuning, CI/CD testing and paid datasets. A same-day "partnership" with Bitcast (SN93) names no action by either side (pricing, pledge, Bitcast).
The REAX engine serves Perplexity's Decider v1.1 up to 6x faster than its reference server, whose author replies the public code was "deeply unoptimized"; the engine track opens 20 Oct 18:00 UTC, and the founder says a new EU-tier customer needed 1,200 requests a minute (@reaxlabs, @airesearch12).
A tree-structured merge replaces the all-to-all wait on the slowest member; 4-bit compression and straggler skipping show no loss penalty (4.04 vs 4.05 at 3.3B tokens); SDK beta access is open (@IOTA_SN9, const).
Third-party apps run on a user's SayGM balance through scoped permissions, a per-app key and a monthly spend cap the user sets; no usage figure (@say_gm_).
Built for everyone who is not a terminal user; the same custody flow the fund is building (@taostats, @mogmachine).
Three subnet tokens in one index product from the lending and analytics shop already on record (tao.media, @taomedia_).
Every polynomial solution to the minimal-graph question is affine, every degree covered, verified in Lean; the fourth such result since September (@conjectures_io).
SN103 Consted, SN70 Consted 2.0, SN35 and SN36 Epago moved to the 33% owner maximum between 19:00 and 19:11 UTC; on chain three of them pay each other and share a treasury. SN103 lost its slot at block 9,321,589, bought for 435 τ by an unnamed registrant (@TensiaBot, Subnet Radar, Tensia thread).
The cut landed at 16:10 UTC on 19 Oct, a day after a third-party thread said ten wallets hold 97.89% of counted stake and no external revenue has been shown (@TensiaBot).
