In plain words
When you ask an AI a question, a computer somewhere has to run the model to answer. These subnets do that job, like ChatGPT's API, but on thousands of independent computers.

Owner on-chain revenue
What the subnet's team earns: 18% of the tokens the subnet creates every day go to it. It's its on-chain salary, visible to everyone.

Alpha locks
on-chain state 41 minutes ago
When a team locks its own tokens, it can't sell them: it's a sign of confidence in its project. Other holders can lock too, behind the team's key.

How it's measured
Alpha locked via Lock / OwnerLock. A perpetual lock (∞) never unlocks; a decaying lock (↘) is released progressively (~130 days). An owner locking its own alpha signals confidence in the project.
Buybacks
Some teams use their revenue to buy back their own token and destroy it ("buyback & burn"): fewer tokens in circulation, like a company buying back its shares.
Burned by the owner (30d)
0.00 ᚅ
The split between buyback & burn, manual burns and emission burns appears once the events of the period are indexed (history scan in progress).
60 days excluded: missing reading, or the counter moved more than the subnet can burn (e.g. runtime migration rewriting it).

How it's measured
On-chain events: AddStakeBurn (buyback & burn), alpha purchases (StakeAdded) and burns/recycles made by this subnet's declared treasury wallets.
