Overall rating on a scale of 0-10
Dimension Breakdown
AI Analysis
Comprehensive evaluation of the token
SN22 (Desearch) is Bittensor Subnet 22, focused on decentralized search infrastructure for web, social, and AI queries. Active development is moderate to strong, supported by an open-source GitHub repository with over 2,100 commits and live API integrations. However, the project faces multiple structural and transparency weaknesses: the core team remains fully anonymous with centralized governance, no third-party security audits have been performed, and community engagement metrics rely largely on self-curated project sources. Tokenomics are partially opaque, showing an active burn mechanism (~20.5% burned) and dynamic emissions, but missing critical data regarding total supply, circulating supply, and lockup schedules. Market and Use Case evaluation was excluded from the weighted score due to insufficient data (-1.0), with its weight redistributed across remaining sections. No qualifying red-flag incidents (such as exploits, regulatory actions, or delistings) were identified.

About Desearch (SN22)
SN22 (Desearch) is a decentralized real-time intelligence and search infrastructure layer operating as Subnet 22 on the Bittensor blockchain. The subnet facilitates decentralized search capabilities across the web, social media platforms like X, and artificial intelligence queries using a miner and validator network. In addition to on-chain operations, the project provides off-chain developer tooling, including the desearch.ai application programming interface (API) and developer console utilized by integrations within the Bittensor ecosystem.
The project maintains an open-source codebase licensed under the MIT license, with ongoing development activity recorded since late 2023. As a Bittensor subnet token, SN22 incorporates dynamic emissions alongside an active burn mechanism that has reduced the circulating supply by over 20%. However, critical tokenomic parameters remain undocumented in public sources, including total supply figures, circulating supply, allocation tables, and vesting schedules.
While SN22 has no documented history of hacks, exploits, regulatory sanctions, or exchange delistings, multiple structural risks have been identified. The core development team is entirely anonymous, and project governance remains centralized without a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) structure. Additionally, the codebase has not undergone any verified third-party security audits, and community activity metrics rely largely on self-curated project data.
