Cel AI Secures Dedicated Bittensor Subnet to Deploy Decentralised AI Agents

 

Cel AI Plc (LSE: CLAI) is pleased to announce that it has acquired a dedicated
subnet on the Bittensor network, enabling the Company to extend its AI agent
technology into the decentralised AI ecosystem.

 

Decentralized AI Agent Vision

 

The acquisition aligns with Cel AI's strategy to deploy its AI agents in a
decentralised manner across blockchain networks. The Bittensor subnet will
serve as infrastructure for Cel's autonomous AI agents to operate
independently, providing specialised services to the broader decentralised AI
network while generating protocol rewards.

 

What is a Bittensor Subnet

 

Bittensor is a decentralised network designed to power and share artificial
intelligence (AI) models on a global scale. By using blockchain, Bittensor
ensures that AI models and computational resources are accessible and
incentivises the creation and sharing of AI models across the network. A
subnet is a specialised network within Bittensor where AI agents perform
specific tasks and earn TAO tokens (Bittensor's native cryptocurrency) as
rewards. Each subnet operates autonomously, with miners competing to provide
the most valuable services. With Bittensor recently closing subnet
registration, these assets have become increasingly scarce.

 

Operational Enhancement

 

The subnet infrastructure is expected to directly benefit Cel AI's core
business of delivering      personalised beauty recommendations. The
Company will leverage the subnet to build out its network of beauty product
indexing, accessing real-time product information, pricing, and availability
data to enhance its affiliate marketing operations. Additionally, the subnet
will improve content generation capabilities, enabling higher quality
personalised beauty advice and product recommendations to drive increased user
engagement.

 

Bitcoin Treasury Integration

 

The Company intends to implement a systematic approach to TAO earnings, with
daily TAO rewards being converted to Bitcoin for treasury growth and re-staked
to increase the subnet's future emission capacity.

 

This creates a compounding effect where decentralised AI agent performance
directly builds Bitcoin reserves while expanding operational capacity.

 

Olivia Edwards, Executive Chair of Cel AI, commented:

 

"This subnet acquisition creates a powerful synergy between our revenue
generation and operational capabilities. Not only are we deploying our AI
agents as autonomous participants in the Bittensor network to generate
sustainable TAO rewards, but we're also using this infrastructure to
supercharge our core beauty recommendation engine. The subnet will enable
real-time beauty product indexing and enhanced content generation, directly
improving user engagement while building our Bitcoin treasury. It's a perfect
example of how decentralised AI can drive both innovation and returns."

 

Market Opportunity

 

The Bittensor network distributes approximately 7,200 TAO daily across all
subnets, with TAO maintaining a market capitalization of approximately $2.9
billion. Cel AI's subnet positions the Company to capture meaningful emissions
through its specialized AI agent services.
