Subnets / SN18
Zeus SN18
Zeus (subnet 18) is a Bittensor subnet held by 2,007 unique coldkeys. Its liquidity pool holds 9.6k τ, with the alpha token trading at 0.0035 τ. Roughly 1% of tracked holders are in profit — most bought in above today's price. Seller exhaustion is elevated: 86% of recent sellers have emptied their wallets, thinning the supply overhang. Full insider flow, whale tracking and the complete proprietary factor set for Zeus are available to SubnetStats subscribers.

Imagine a weather system that doesn't settle for one model's strenghts and weaknesses.
One that continuously identifies the best-performing models for each variable and intelligently routes every API request to the right specialist.
That's Zeus Pro.

📸 Current Zeus leaderboard snapshot!
Four UIDs capture ~95% of emissions, none of them dominate every single variable.
🏆 UID 224 (#1) wins temperature with solid wind performance to hold the lead.
UID 85 (#2) absolutely dominates solar, but capped by its 20% scoring weight.

Since June 17th, we've hashed every single Zeus forecast to the blockchain.
Now, 25K times our historical forecast archive has been downloaded on HuggingFace.
Our trustless verification mechanism allows anyone to check that a published forecast matches the hash commited on-chai
With teams dedicating thousands of hours to model development on Zeus, stable evaluation is the most important aspect of the subnet’s design.
AI brings a new generation of weather models that rival (and outperform) traditional numerical models.

How long until Zeus miners launch their own satellites? 🛰️
Is Zeus Pro getting better over time?
Yes! From June to September, Zeus Pro showed statistically significant improvements in relative forecasting skill against four operational baselines.
Competitive pressure on Bittensor: a mechanism for real innovation.

US natural gas traders are betting on a mild winter, with net-short positions exceeding 140K contracts.
❄️ But unexpected cold snaps will turn the market upside down. This winter, it's about the next 10 days of weather.
Zeus temperature forecasts as population-weighted HDD/CDD
For a 00Z model run, Zeus disseminates in around 1.5 hours.
That’s a 4.5 hour time advantage for energy traders to position before others trading with industry-standard models.
This is our strongest differentiator. https://t.co/YiXciAohOq
Bittensor 101, featuring Zeus
@mcjkula & @TAOTemplar break it down at @ExploitSummit
A great intro to Bittensor, and to what can be built on it 👇
An hour and a half. That's how fast Zeus delivers a new weather run.
That's 4× faster than IFS (6h) and nearly 5× faster than Google's new WeatherNext 3 (7h).
And it's not winning on speed alone. 👇
We’ve put WeatherNext 3 head-to-head with our Zeus Pro and the industry-standar

Zeus is energy-aware. How? 👇
For temperature, we use population as a proxy for where demand matters. For wind and solar, we use generation capacity to track where supply matters.
Geographic weights derived from this data are now used by validators when scoring forecasts. They’r

Zeus (SN18), recent sell pressure resolved.
An early partner who covered the slot registration fee (and held a share of emissions in return) decided to wind down and move on. Although we do not agree with the decision, we respect it.
Their remaining position has been fully boug
Zeus gets a 10/10 from Arbos, by @const_reborn https://t.co/ZqKWZYW05l
Zeus is becoming energy-aware. The first among weather models.
Incentives are now skewed towards Europe, most to Germany. Based on expressed interest from trading desks and trading volume.
Within, they're further distributed, variable-specific, based on where weather drives ene
Tuesday...
Deploying a new geographic incentive system that weights grid points based on variable-specific factors influencing energy supply and demand takes a bit more time than we thought.
The intention, weight maps & methodology behind it will follow the mainnet update.
Make weather forecasting innovation even more responsive to what energy traders value.
Based on our own research and input from traders across 12 desks.
Deploying it to mainnet on Friday.
Energy trading is a >$3 trillion market.
Every trading desk prices off the same weather model. It runs 4 times a day, and lands at the same time, every time.
The second it lands, the market violently re-prices.
We deciced to FRONT-RUN it. https://t.co/seIrf8FjgR

1 Week into the beta waitlist for Zeus Edge.
50+ sign ups. Meetings had with 10 trading desks. More this week.
The demand is there. Now... it's time to accelerate its development.
During this phase of pilots, we'll boost geographic scalars on Zeus.
A 2.5x scalar (= error multiplier) on Germany drove a ~40% performance lead over IFS.
