**Numerai Signals is implementing a major scoring change** starting September 2nd. The platform will transition from its current system to **Alpha + MPC scores** for all new rounds. - Alpha scoring was introduced in August as a new evaluation method - MPC (Multi-Party Computation) scores will be combined with Alpha - Change affects all prediction rounds beginning September 2nd or later This represents a significant shift in how Signals evaluates and rewards predictions on the platform.

**Numerai's Revolutionary Approach** Numerai hedge fund operates on an unusual model: **giving away all trading data for free** to anyone who wants to train machine learning algorithms on it. The platform allows data scientists to: - Access proprietary financial datasets at no cost - Train their own ML models using this data - Submit predictions directly to the hedge fund - Potentially earn rewards for accurate forecasts **The Bigger Vision** Numerai's 2017 master plan positioned the platform as an **API for AI capital control** - essentially becoming infrastructure that any artificial intelligence could use to manage money in the economy. This open approach means Numerai stays **permanently accessible to new ML techniques** and can absorb the best innovations from the global data science community. **Why This Matters** While most hedge funds guard their data jealously, Numerai's model flips traditional finance on its head by crowdsourcing intelligence rather than hoarding it.

Numerai Crypto marks its first anniversary, demonstrating successful application of collective intelligence in cryptocurrency prediction. The platform's Meta Model now aggregates hundreds of daily predictions for top 500 tokens, freely accessible to all users. Key updates: - Growing user base with increased stakes - Improved signal quality and performance - Upcoming v2 dataset release with enhanced features - Current stake value exceeds $790,000 across 256 models Access predictions at [crypto.numer.ai/meta-model](https://crypto.numer.ai/meta-model) Users can participate by submitting predictions and staking NMR tokens, with potential for rewards or losses based on accuracy.

Numerai's Meta Model has reached a significant milestone, achieving the #1 ranking in CORR performance metrics. The model aggregates intelligence from over 4,000 staked models, demonstrating the effectiveness of crowdsourced predictions in financial markets. This marks an improvement from January 2025, when the Meta Model ranked 3rd with $6.5 million in staked predictions. Track performance: [Numerai Meta Model](https://numer.ai/~numerai_swmm)

Numerai has achieved a significant trading milestone, now processing over **$250 million in weekly trades**. This represents substantial growth from their previous metrics, having accumulated more than $25 billion in total trading volume since launch. Key points: - Current weekly volume: $250M+ - Historical trading volume: $25B+ - Revenue milestone: Over $1M This scaling demonstrates Numerai's growing presence in algorithmic trading markets.
