Bittensor Exploit Summit 2026 Coming to Montreal

Bittensor Commons has announced details for Exploit Summit 2026, the network's native conference. The two-day event will take place on September 28 and 29 at New City Gas in Montreal. Bittensor is a decentralised incentive network designed to coordinate global contributors building machine intelligence collaboratively.

The conference features talks, debates, workshops, and live subnet demonstrations focused on game-theoretic competitive design. This involves independent miners competing against validator scoring mechanisms and being rewarded based on results.

Confirmed speakers include Jacob Steeves from Affine, Marcus Graichen from Taostats, Rob Myers from Manifold Labs, and many others. The full speaker roster is available on the event website.

The venue, New City Gas, is a restored 19th-century industrial complex in Griffintown. Organisers cited Montreal's role in deep learning development and its accessibility as reasons for choosing this location.

Etienne Leroy, Director of Opentensor Foundation, explained that Exploit Summit is not a showcase but rather an opportunity for the ecosystem to come together and improve through argumentation and subnet demonstrations.
