Bittensor

The Bittensor ecosystem is a competitive landscape, and fully understanding how entities interact within the network is a knowledge base that comes with time. However, there are some resources to prime yourself prior to developing subnets and, ultimately, incentive mechanisms. The Bittensor Whitepaper is an excellent place to obtain a solid technical basis of how Bittensor works.

From the Bittensor Whitepaper:

"The solution [to creating a framework for machine intelligence] is a network of computers that share representations continuously and asynchronously, peer-to-peer (P2P) across the internet. The constructed market uses a digital ledger to record ranks and incentivize peers in a decentralized manner."
