Some notable ecosystem projects and subnets include: Chutes (SN64) → AI processing and GPU infrastructure OpenKaito → AI-powered search engine Templar → Large language model development Score → AI-based data analysis and processing 📍 In 2026, the Bittensor ecosystem is primarily focused on expanding useful subnets, developing the Alpha Token economy, and advancing decentralized AI. #project_introduction #tao #ethan #sorooshx
