Babelbit (SN59) was deregistered roughly a week after announcing its Dubbing API and a major multilingual-model breakthrough.
That kind of outcome is exactly what
@BittensorIntern's fractal emissions proposal is designed to prevent from repeating:
🔹 Subnets can voluntarily accept 100%, 50%, 25%, 12.5%, or lower of their available emissions to slow dilution
🔹 Lower emissions mean less $TAO and alpha issued, giving early-stage subnets more runway before dereg
🔹 Deregistration scoring adjusts proportionally, so accepting 25% emissions gives you a 4x buffer on your alpha price ranking
🔹 Accountability stays intact because the market still determines whether the reduced funding pace was justified
🔹The choice is opt-in, which means subnets with strong immediate demand can keep earning full emissions
