168,000+ SN19 alpha is now locked under Conviction.
100,000 from the owner coldkey. A further 68,000 from an independent holder, locked to the same hotkey.
Locked alpha can't be sold. Not a pledge, an on-chain state.

Agreed - server-side, you're still trusting the box. Which is why Helios sits in the middle of ours: on the Verified api, miner responses are proof-checked against a consensus state root before they reach you.
But you can also run your own light client against our endpoint and check block hash + receiptsRoot client-side.
Our Helios keeps the miners honest; yours keeps us honest. Trust no one :)
Ethereum RPC is live on blockmachine.
RPC is one of crypto's most centralized dependencies. Wallets, dapps, bots and agents all rely on it — usually through a small number of providers.
blockmachine changes the supply side: an open network of independent operators, consensus-proof verification, and market-priced routing.
Ethereum is open for business.

After successfully updating @coingecko main listing to show SN19/blockmachine
coingecko.com/en/coins/block…
We are preparing to submit our request to CoinGecko Terminal: geckoterminal.com/bittensor/pool…
To do so requires this verification post from our official account, mentioning the person handling this on Telegram @mogmachine (X & tg handle are the same).
The public can ignore this tweet except to show other subnets, it is not that hard to change your CG info if you need to.
blockmachine just settled its first on-chain buyback.
$2,009.73 of customer revenue from Apr 22 → May 15 → 530.84 α of SN19. Sized to match miner payouts and offset emission-driven sell pressure.
Cycle one. Buybacks scale with revenue from here.

9/ Long-term, Bittensor product teams should build on top of a commodity RPC layer, not running their own.
We are building that layer.
The market is forming. The mechanism is working.
Stop running nodes. Build products.

8/ That changes the calculus for product teams.
Running your own RPC stops being the safe default. It becomes the expensive default.
The choice where you keep paying an engineering tax that the rest of the market is starting to shed.
1/ Stop running nodes. Build products.
Across the Bittensor ecosystem, teams still spend too much engineering time on RPC reliability, node access, endpoint failover, and infra babysitting.
Reliable RPC is necessary. Owning the whole stack usually is not. 🧵
@DrocksAlex2 That's right. All storage queries are verified against Merkle proofs at the gateway before the response reaches the customer. The remaining methods (runtime calls, subscriptions) are checked by the validators.
The Bittensor community moves fast.
Two days post-mainnet, the blockmachine team has been flipped on SN19 routing share. An independent miner registered 36 hours ago went from 5% to ~38% of traffic share. They're now #1 on the subnet.
Eight other independents are serving traffic alongside them. The network has grown from our 24 nodes at launch to 64.
The plan was always that our miners would be beaten by the community. We just didn't expect it to happen this fast.
This community rocks.
1/ I woke up very stoked today.
in 3 years of building on Bittensor, i have never been this excited about a subnet launch.
today blockmachine goes live.
first ever Bittensor subnet to launch on mainnet with a real product, real customers and real revenue from day one.
