- What happened
- SN96 (Verathos) announced it will relaunch as Verathos Decide on Thursday, October 15, moving to open-weight decision models that return a probability for each option via a single API, signed by the answering miner. The team also introduced a referral program allowing non-miners to earn up to 10% of subnet emissions by bringing in paid demand, starting Thursday. Separately, a partial network outage at the team's hosting provider, Hetzner, at a data center in Finland caused validator scoring issues, leaving many miners with zero emissions for an epoch. The team said it has already migrated the new Verathos Decide platform to a different data center ahead of launch.
- Community
- Miners asked about the referral and paid-demand pipeline timing and whether currently served models would remain supported until the Thursday update. Several miners reported their endpoints showing zero scores and inactive status despite passing health and debug checks, and one miner noted that scores were restored but emissions for that epoch stayed at zero. A community member cautioned others to be careful about direct messages during the troubleshooting exchange.
- Official
- The team confirmed intermittent connectivity affected the legacy validator and miner scoring and said it was correcting the scoring impact while monitoring recovery, adding that the Verathos Decide testnet was not affected. It later attributed the issue to a partial outage at its hosting provider, Hetzner, in a Finland data center, said the issue was outside its direct control, and stated it had already moved Verathos Decide to another data center ahead of the October 15 launch.
