Live 
Bitcoin News reports that TrajectoryRL released validator v0.7.8 on November 8, 2026, with the merged pull request enabling BURN ALL emission by default. The release applies specifically to 
Bittensor Subnet 11.
Under the reported configuration, every weight tick assigns 100% of miner weight to owner UID 74. The implementation also disregards the seated fusion-policy winner, replacing that selection with a single fixed destination for the subnet’s miner weight.
Live Bitcoin News links the change to Subnet 11’s treatment of recycled miner emission, which it describes as burned. This provides the mechanism behind the allocation change: the weight is not assigned to the seated fusion-policy winner, while the subnet’s burn process applies to the relevant recycled miner share.
The update comes against a mixed market backdrop. DeFiLlama reports Bittensor TVL of $402.17 million, down 4.0% over seven days. The token, TAO, is priced at $223.39, up 0.53% over 24 hours but down 3.86% over seven days, with a market capitalization of $2.61 billion.
The wider crypto market is comparatively stable, with total capitalization at $2.6 trillion and an overall flat reading. Bitcoin is up 0.07% over 24 hours, while the Fear & Greed index stands at 28, indicating fear. The developments to monitor are the operation of validator v0.7.8, continued weight allocation to UID 74, and the resulting treatment of recycled emissions within Subnet 11.
Since this brief published about 9 hours ago, Bittensor (TAO) has moved from $223.39 to $222.68 — -0.32%.
The chart plots TAO's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from TLT's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 TAO ≈ ₦307,293.95 (about $222.68), up 0.4% over 24 hours. The naira itself trades about 2.4% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Nigerian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
