MetaNova (Bittensor Subnet 68)
Decentralized drug discovery platform using Bittensor network to crowdsource molecular screening and chemical search algorithms for finding drug candidates. Operates as virtual biotech using contract research organizations (CROs) for synthesis and testing.

Launched March 1, 2025; Started with dataset of 1 billion molecules; applied 5 combinatorial reactions to create ~65 billion possible synthesis-actionable molecules; competing on two incentive mechanisms (molecule submission + chemical search algorithms); Partner in Shanghai (Yalotane) validating 50 nanobody candidates; Current drug discovery costs: 10 years, $2.6 billion per drug; Timeline to AI-discovered drug approval: 3-5 years
