As a subnet owner on Bittensor, you earn TAO tokens by running a mini-network that performs a specific AI task, like ranking content or generating text. When your subnet is active and used by miners and validators, it receives a daily share of TAO from the network. You automatically get 18% of your subnet’s emissions just for owning and maintaining it, making it a passive income stream once it’s set up and running well.
To start earning, you need to launch a subnet by locking some TAO as a deposit and creating basic rules for how miners and validators should work. Once your subnet is live and people start using it, the more useful it is, the more TAO it can earn. As long as your subnet is active and contributing to the network, you’ll continue receiving daily rewards.
