Into:Vanta
The prop firm, decentralized.
As of · Jun 4, 10:37 UTC
A live-money prop trading network where miners submit long/short signals on forex, crypto, and equities, and a 10% drawdown limit eliminates anyone who blows up. The hardest, least forgiving subnet on Bittensor, by design.
What is Vanta
Vanta (formerly Proprietary Trading Network) is Taoshi's subnet for incentivizing real trading signals. Miners run quant or deep-learning models that submit directional bets on actual market pairs, and validators score them on risk-adjusted returns over rolling weekly windows. Survivors earn . Anyone who exceeds a 10% drawdown, or gets caught copying another miner, is permanently eliminated.
The simple version: Imagine a prop firm where the trader's account is on chain, the rules are open source, and the only way to keep earning is to keep trading profitably without ever blowing up your risk limit. That's Vanta.
Centralized equivalent: Think FTMO or The5%ers (prop firm challenges), but with the evaluation logic, position book, and payouts all running on Bittensor instead of behind a single firm's risk desk.
How it works:
- Miners submit LONG, SHORT, or FLAT signals on supported forex, crypto, and equities pairs during market hours, with leverage. Their positions are tracked, marked to market, and charged carry, spread, and costs as if they were live trades.
- Validators receive the signals, validate them, mark portfolio PnL, run plagiarism checks against other miners, enforce the 10% max drawdown rule, and set weights on the previous week's penalty-adjusted performance.
