AI agents are only as smart as the data they can see. Giga joins us to explain how Subnet 22 is turning LLMs into real-time operators – by piping in fresh data at scale.

We talk:

• Why real-time search is the missing layer in most agents

• How Subnet 22 is already powering live customer deployments

• The business case for 24/7 AI sales reps (spoiler: they don’t need lunch breaks)

James Altucher - entrepreneur, bestselling author, early Bitcoin evangelist, and founder of TAO X - joins us to unpack why Bittensor feels like “Bitcoin in 2013,” and how decentralized incentives could upend not just AI, but entrepreneurship itself. We cover the rise of subnets, the hard truth about alpha tokens, and why value capture - not hype - will separate winners from the noise.

From codified buybacks and equity linkages to miner incentives and treasury strategy, James lays out the playbook he thinks will drive real adoption: make alpha a “ticket to value,” reward performance algorithmically, and communicate like a serious business - not a research project.

In this conversation, you’ll hear:

• How to turn alpha from a memecoin into a “ticket” that unlocks real value (algorithmic buybacks, equity share classes, staking requirements)

• The treasury-company playbook for TAO: tokens-per-share, staking, validators, and why equity-like mechanics matter

• What risks could stall Bittensor - and how better incentive design and clear comms de-risk them

Zeus is building a weather API that outperforms anything that’s available right now now. Miners compete to forecast temperature, wind, rain, and humidity. Validators score them, and the best predictions win.

• Paid API access coming very soon

• First focus: energy and commodities

• 50% of revenue goes to alpha buybacks.

Weather forecasting is a billion dollar market, and Zeus has got an edge. Listen to the whole episode to find out how alpha holdres can capture the upside.
