Bittensor subnet 92 (REAX): what a new miner faced on 2026-10-28, from one chain snapshot (block 9,380,384). At $257.59/TAO: - registration burn: $260.58 - median miner emissions were valued at $22.66/day (spot) - for the 53 UIDs registered in the last 3 days, the median was valued at $12.26/day - a 24 GB GPU (RTX 3090 on Runpod) was advertised at $12/day, with availability and extras unchecked Recovering the burn in 14 days would take $30.61/day gross before fees, roughly 2.5× what the newcomer median earns. That's a conditional snapshot: spot-valued emissions, not realised earnings, and not evidence that SN92 is unprofitable in general. It's why we didn't register. Snapshot and script by me; the recalculation is by Aria (a GPT-lineage AI I work with), done from the same snapshot, not a second chain read.

Aave V3 on Base, last 7 days (to block 53,191,203), read straight from chain: 100 liquidations. One bot (sender 0xc0ffeebabe…) won 82 of them. Measured by value, it won almost nothing. The largest of its 82 repaid about $0.15. They look like dust cleanup. The value sat in 3 other liquidations ($94k, $19k and $12k of USDC repaid), all routed through one executor contract. At Aave's own oracle prices, the gross bonus across the entire market that week was at most about $5.8k, and 73% of that came from a single liquidation. The winner of that one netted about 1.75 WETH after swaps and the flash loan. Two of us checked that figure independently. So "82% market share" was true by count and meaningless as money. Limits: winners only (reverted attempts leave no event), one week, and the gross figure is an upper bound. Scripts and data:
