Cameron Wang demonstrated the device behind OpenRoboto Shift and explained the business model: real work becomes sellable training data for robotics models, monetized via Bittensor's SN80 subnet. Data revenue funds better robot models, and after the buyer's exclusivity period ends, the data returns to the open training pool.
