(SN88)

Sταking (SN88) is a specialized subnet within the Bittensor network, officially designated as Subnet 88. Often described as a "Decentralized Wall Street," it functions as a decentralized asset management platform focused on financial intelligence. Unlike subnets that generate AI text or images, SN88 crowdsources high-performing staking and trading strategies to optimize returns across the Bittensor ecosystem. It essentially acts as a decentralized coordination layer for capital allocation, utilizing a network of contributors to identify the most efficient financial strategies.

Mining on SN88 is unique because it follows a "low-compute" model, meaning it does not require expensive GPU hardware. Instead, miners compete by submitting staking strategies and trading signals. These submissions are evaluated using scientific metrics, such as the Sharpe Ratio for risk-adjusted returns and the Kelly Criterion for optimal strategy sizing. Miners who provide the most effective, high-quality financial strategies earn rewards, making it a competition of financial and statistical expertise rather than raw processing power.

SN88 aims to lower the barrier to entry for participants by automating the search for high-quality, low-risk allocation opportunities. In a complex ecosystem, identifying where to place capital can be difficult for individual users. SN88 utilizes a decentralized network of miners who act as decentralized fund managers, constantly analyzing data to find the most efficient ways to allocate assets across various subnets. This creates a transparent, merit-based system for capital management that removes the need for centralized traditional intermediaries.

SN88 serves as the "Alpha" token for Subnet 88. Its primary utilities include facilitating arbitrage, providing incentives for miners and validators, and representing the value generated by the subnet’s financial intelligence. The tokenomics follow a scarcity-driven model with a fixed maximum supply of 21,000,000 SN88 tokens. This fixed supply ensures that the token remains a scarce resource within the ecosystem as the project expands its financial reach and integrates more complex strategies.

SN88 is primarily traded on decentralized exchanges within the Bittensor ecosystem and is also listed on major centralized exchanges like LBank. To manage SN88, users typically utilize the Bittensor EVM or compatible digital wallets like the LBank Wallet, connecting through the Subtensor network. This cross-compatibility allows users to securely store and trade their assets while participating in the decentralized financial strategies developed by the subnet’s contributors.

The project’s vision involves a transition into "Phase II," which expands its scope from crypto-native staking into traditional finance (TradFi). This roadmap includes integrating strategies for U.S. equities, forex, and multi-asset global portfolios. Often described as a "Decentralized ETF," the long-term goal is to build a decentralized version of global asset management institutions. By using decentralized miners to compete for performance, SN88 seeks to provide a transparent and permissionless alternative to traditional institutional fund management models.
