SN25とは

Founding Visionaries

Macrocosmos, the organization behind SN25, was co-founded by Will Squires (CEO) and Steffen Cruz (CTO). Squires brings expertise in engineering and decentralized systems, having previously led AI initiatives at infrastructure firms and contributed to blockchain strategy. Cruz holds a PhD in subatomic physics and pioneered techniques for physics-informed machine learning. As a core developer of Bittensor's foundational subnet architecture, Cruz designed SN25's incentive mechanisms and technical documentation. The leadership emphasizes open-source collaboration, with Squires advocating for “decentralized supercomputing” to disrupt traditional research bottlenecks.

Engineering and Research Contributors

SN25's development is driven by a multidisciplinary team spanning machine learning, biochemistry, and distributed systems. Key contributors include:

• Volodymyr Truba (Senior ML Engineer), specializing in molecular dynamics optimization.
• Felix Quinque (Machine Learning Lead), focusing on energy-minimization algorithms.
• Alan Aboudib (Machine Learning Lead), developing validation frameworks for protein configurations.

This team collaborates with academic institutions, where student projects have integrated SN25 into emotion-aware AI tools. The absence of traditional corporate hierarchies allows rapid iteration, with quarterly roadmaps published transparently.
