Bittensor Subnet — Nous Research (SN5) protocol
Overview
Nous Research operates a subnet on Bittensor, identified as subnet 5, focused on decentralised training and post-training of large language models. Miners on the subnet are rewarded for fine-tuning models against a continuously generated stream of synthetic data, with validators scoring the resulting models, so the subnet functions as an incentive layer for distributed model improvement rather than for inference alone. Nous Research is an open-source AI lab that also publishes models outside Bittensor, and it is frequently cited alongside Prime Intellect as one of the groups pursuing decentralised training.
Within the DeFi Intel graph, Bittensor Subnet — Nous Research (SN5) connects to 3 tracked entities, most strongly to Bittensor, Nous Research, Sahara AI.
