Targon used compute revenue to buy back and burn $2.1 million worth of alpha tokens, accounting for over 91% of Bittensor’s reported weekly manual alpha burns and recycles. [...] The post Targon (SN4) Leads Bittensor’s Weekly Alpha Burns with Revenue from Compute Sales appeared first on The TAO Daily.

The subnet now routes 100% of its miner emission to burn (was 0%). Miners earn little or nothing from it while this lasts.

With eTAO, the subnet does, within firm limits. The first written companion to Talking Targon covers what changed, why it took years, and the guardrails. From Ep. 01 with @const_reborn.

Targon@TargonComputeWe have just repurchased and burned 1,772 TAO (~$445K) of SN4 alpha using organic revenues generated via Targon.com We have also burned an additional 6,678 TAO (~$1.7M) worth of SN4 alpha, which also represents revenue generated via Targon
Linktargon.comTargon.comTargon@TargonComputeWith exploits on the rise, plan for the host getting breached. Targon Virtual Machines run on Intel TDX. Memory is encrypted with keys the host never sees, so even a compromised server can’t see your data, your weights or your code.
Quoting @narrativereach
Every few hours, it seems like there’s a new software exploit. This week, a critical PHP flaw forced government websites across Europe offline, and the NSA told anyone who couldn’t patch to take their systems down, and one attacker used AI agents to break into the websites of 100+ companies for about $50 a hack. Exploits that used to take months now take minutes. And a standard VM still assumes you trust the host. The hypervisor, the admins, anyone who gets that far can read what’s in memory. The hardware to close that gap already exists. The question is no longer how fast you can patch, it’s whether anyone else can see inside your workload while it runs.

Talking Targon, Ep. 01 is now live. Bittensor co-founder Jacob Steeves aka @const_reborn joins us to break down eTAO, the upgrade that lets subnet owners decide how their emissions are split. We get into subnet economics, the guardrails against exploits, and what it unlocks for compute on Targon.
Targon@TargonComputeBittensor is adapting, and passing more control to the network participants. eTAO is yet another step toward true decentralization. “Inside of a competitive network, where you're being governed by the market.” @const_reborn on Talking Targon
Talking Targon debuts with Const explaining how eTAO gives subnet owners flexible emissions and could help Targon (SN4) expand computing capacity. [...] The post ‘Talking Targon’ Ep. 01 With Const on eTAO and Subnet Economics appeared first on The TAO Daily.

Openτensor Foundaτion@opentensorTargon's new GPU capacity is being booked by enterprise customers within a day, often under year-long contracts. On the latest Novelty Search, @TargonCompute explains how Subnet 4 is building a confidential AI cloud that protects models and data even on third-party hardware. The team also unveiled a public revenue dashboard, with bare-metal servers, virtual machines and AI-agent sandboxes already available, and more cloud services on the roadmap.

Bittensor’s protocol is evolving—and Targon is opening up about its business. In Novelty Search #92, Const joins Rob and Matt from Targon in Austin, alongside Mark Jeffrey and Mogmachine, to explore eTAO, Gamma and greater flexibility for subnet economics. The conversation covers proposed changes to miner, validator and owner emissions, how Gamma could connect applications with compute and storage across Bittensor, and what these changes could unlock for builders. Then we dive into Targon: its new revenue dashboard, infrastructure roadmap, Targon Tower plans and the team’s approach to reinvestment and token buybacks.
