Vericore, operating as Subnet 70 on Bittensor, is a decentralized reputation and verification layer designed to address a critical gap in AI: the lack of transparency and trust in outputs. It introduces a framework where trust is not abstract but measurable, auditable, and directly tied to economic incentives.
Why SN70 Matters
AI systems are only as reliable as the data they process and the accountability of those who produce outputs. In decentralized networks, this challenge is magnified, as contributions come from diverse and often anonymous actors.
Vericore addresses this by embedding trust signals into the subnet economy, allowing users, enterprises, and applications to evaluate:
a. The quality and provenance of data,
b. The performance history of miners and validators, and
c. Adherence to compliance standards required by industries.
How Vericore Works
Vericore functions as a reputation system layered onto Bittensor’s open AI marketplace:
a. Miners generate outputs that are ranked and rewarded not only for performance but for verified reliability.
b. Validators act as auditors, ensuring outputs meet quality and compliance standards.
c. Enterprises access curated, verified datasets and AI outputs with confidence that they are trustworthy and auditable.
By aligning incentives this way, Vericore turns reliability itself into an economic good.

Enterprise Value
Enterprises face steep costs from bad data or opaque AI outputs. To solve this problem, Vericore provides:
a. Curated datasets aggregated and validated through decentralized consensus.
b. Audit-ready transparency for compliance with industry standards.
c. Predictable quality that makes decentralized AI outputs viable for sectors like finance, healthcare, and scientific research.
Economic Engine
Subnet 70 transforms trust into a monetizable asset:
a. Miners are rewarded more when their outputs are validated as high-trust.
b. Validators ensure integrity, anchoring incentives to accuracy.
c. Enterprises pay for reliable data streams that meet real-world standards.
This creates a cycle where better trust leads to better rewards, which leads to stronger network outputs.
Scaling Outlook
As a dynamic ecosystem, Vericore’s market penetration and adoption are phased thus:
a. Initial stage: partnerships with enterprises that need verifiable AI outputs
b. Expansion stage: adoption across industries that rely heavily on data integrity
c. Maturity stage: positioning as the verification layer of choice for decentralized AI at scale
Conclusion
Vericore is more than a subnet — it is an infrastructure for trust. By combining reputation, verification, and economic incentives, it enables Bittensor to move beyond raw performance into a space where reliability and transparency define value.
