Ala Shaabana @shibshib89 co-founded @bittensor and @opentensor, and today he's building the next layer at @CrucibleLabs. Since 2019, he has led the development and maintenance of the Bittensor protocol, shaping what is now the most prominent decentralised AI network. At Crucible, the mission is simple: find what the ecosystem is missing, and build it. A validator first. Then hiring analysts to make Bittensor readable for investors, researchers, and newcomers. Then a wallet. A smart allocator. Tools that turn understanding into participation. Now his focus is on the teams themselves, mentoring the subnet founders most likely to define what this network becomes. From building the network to building what grows on top of it. This summer he returns to the Louvre. June 2-3. Bittensor Track at Proof of Talk.
