Teutonic Deploys Model Hash Check Against Attacks

Team identified and patched a vulnerability allowing miners to submit copied models by manually setting commit revisions without hash verification. A breaking validator change now requires commit revision checks, preventing model copying exploits. Separately, the 82B training effort faces a loss plateau at 3.2 (vs. 1.6 for prior 1B model), with team debating whether the model is stuck in a local minimum due to LoRA-based training or requires incentive redesign to encourage actual pretraining.

• •Validator now enforces commit revision checks to block copied model submissions
• •82B model training stalled at loss of 3.2; investigating local minima escape
• •HuggingFace CDN issues temporarily disrupted evaluation; resolved
• •Team requested miners shift from LoRA to dense pretraining methods
