Mark and Siam kick off the first Revenue Search of 2026 and bring on Felix from subnet 91, Tensorprox. A decentralized “bouncer” layer that sits between clients and servers to stop DDoS and bad traffic while keeping legitimate requests flowing; it onboards in minutes (auto-detects ports), is paid in fiat, bills in 15-minute increments (~$0.07; roughly $200/month for 100 Mbps), and aims to be more resilient than centralized providers like Cloudflare/AWS via miners distributed across multiple clouds. Felix outlines target customers (infrastructure/GPU providers, web3/crypto projects, AI startups), referral-based sales, possible OpenAI marketplace distribution, near-term scaling (effectively unlimited with IPv6), and a plan to channel revenue—after taxes/OPEX—into TAO/alpha buybacks held in a treasury that stakes and shares rewards with loyal holders. Longer term, Tensorprox will add higher-margin app-layer security (WAF, bot management, data validation) and potentially host always-on services from other subnets; the hosts encourage outreach to subnets hit by DDoS.

The hosts open with travel/gossip (Mark dialing in from Dubai) and a firm PSA about why they won’t confirm wallet/subnet rumours, They then bring on Yoav, Garrett and Gyles from Tensor Group to debut tao.com, a rebuilt Bittensor wallet (iOS live now; Android targeted for Q1) that makes onboarding dead simple: fiat/TAO toggles, in-app TAO purchase via Coinbase Pay (debit or Coinbase), one-tap staking (abstracts “root/validators”), biometric Secure Enclave keys, clean portfolio/history, and rich subnet pages (stats, team, roadmap, news, search/sort) designed to drive conviction; UK rollout awaits FCA tweaks while US users can update today, CSV export/desktop and Ledger-style “power user” features are planned, and subnet teams will be able to self-manage profiles and potentially promote content; the group discusses growth levers (recommendations, short founder videos, category labels, “did-you-know” hooks), a playful idea of tiny “starter alpha,” and a serious unmet need for institutional/custodial support so PLCs can hold alpha, with Tensor saying they’re self-funded (validator/mining), now raising to scale the broader tao.com/Tensor stack.

Mark and Siam open with a candid TAO update (over-levered loans due, price drawdown, macro notes on TGA and QT) then bring on Akshat from Dippy, who explains Dippy as an AI-friend entertainment app (~8.6M users, ~1 hr/day engagement) adding tap-to-video (not real-time yet) and imminently voice calls; Dippy now runs all text inference on Bittensor SN-4 (Targon) via a six-figure deal and is pivoting SN-11 into a fast, cheap media-inference “studio” (deterministic TensorRT pipeline), currently serving ~2% of Dippy images with plans to ramp to 100% and open a self-serve API; they’ll resume consistent SN-11 alpha buybacks by redirecting $5–10k/month formerly spent on centralized providers, outline 18+ moderation/privacy measures, note revenue of ~$40–60k/month while prioritizing retention and future in-message ads, and share a longer-term vision for interactive “generative worlds,” plus team hiring and platform constraints (Android feasible “Jarvis,” iOS restricted).
