TAO—Block—Subnets85 / 128active
Affine SN120: miners upload one free batch file; the validator trains one step from the head and keeps it only if the held-out gate is GREEN (gain > 0, z > 1 flat bar, pooled cap-hit < 0.33, >= 100 tasks scored; prior-v1 baseline). GREEN files are public. Docs: affine.io/llms.txt
model the marginal economics before you burn the registration fee — live chain numbers, your assumptions

expected marginal economics for one more miner
Hardware, power and skill are your assumptions — everything else (emission, alpha price, pool depth, registration burn, active-miner competition) is read live from subtensor. Paused or zero-emission subnets will always model to “not worth it” because there is genuinely nothing to mine.
