Bittensor’s AI Stack: Historical Backtests, Fast Decisions & Distributed Training

Can you backtest an AI on a decision from 2020 if it already knows what happened next? On Novelty Search 095, Jacob Steeves and Mark Jeffrey talk with Jean about how ChronoLM trains models on information available at a specific point in time, how the team tests for data leakage, and what that could mean for investment research. Florian explains why decision models can answer without generating text token by token, how REX rewards miners for fast, reliable inference, and what it takes to turn that into a product customers pay for. Then Grizz joins from Reliquary to discuss Teutonic, training across different GPUs, and the challenge of verifying work from miners you don’t have to trust.

Teutonic-I-Reliquary’s weights are available under Apache 2.0. You can also inspect the training run step by step. Model weights: huggingface.co/ReliquaryForge/Teutonic-I-Reliqu… Training dashboard: app.reliqua.ai/console/run?run=5H47sFL6-teutoni… We’ll publish the technical details behind Gumbel substitution in the coming weeks.

We developed Gumbel substitution to make RL work across different GPUs, without controlling the hardware or synchronizing miners. It corrects small differences between GPU outputs that would otherwise destabilize training. The network also verifies every rollout.

The RL run improved Teutonic-I across all 8 benchmarks. Here's how its scores changed from the post-SFT checkpoint to the final model after RL: SWE-bench Verified: 17.3% → 43.6% LiveCodeBench: 40.7% → 62.0% AIME 2025: 73.3% → 91.2%

In our evaluations, Teutonic-I-Reliquary scored higher than Qwen3.5-9B on 5 of 8 benchmarks, including SWE-bench Verified and LiveCodeBench. Both models were tested using the same harness and protocol.

We’ve released Teutonic-I-Reliquary, a 9B model post-trained entirely on Bittensor using untrusted GPUs, from RTX 3090s to B200s. It beats Qwen3.5-9B on SWE-bench Verified, scoring 43.6% vs 35.1%.

Publicly fixing sampling noise so untrusted miners can feed a real RL loop & verifying every eval on-subnet

Quoting @romai__

100 steps of fully decentralized RL on Reliquary. Rollouts from untrusted miners on 12+ GPU models. That usually breaks RL: we fix the sampling noise publicly, so the trainer knows exactly what the model would have sampled. Every eval sample verified on-subnet. bittensor:native

Every GPU can participate. Any model, any pace, join when you want, leave when you want. No GPU sits idle. Different hardware, different speeds, all contributing at full capacity. If it holds up at scale here, decentralized RL goes from theory to default.
