Beam (Subnet 105) is building programmable bandwidth on Bittensor, moving data across clouds, storage, P2P networks and AI infrastructure. Six months after mainnet launch it already processes roughly 1 TB every 30 minutes, with the next phase focused on real-world adoption and larger-scale workloads. Founder @b1mai discusses the progress live on the Novelty Search show, Thursday 9PM UTC via Bittensor Discord, hosted by @constreborn.
