ParameterTypeDescription
hotkey_ss58stringHotkey whose owning coldkey to look up.

CLI

btcli query hotkey-owner --hotkey <ss58|name> --json

Python

Namespace method (autocomplete, signature help):

import bittensor as bt

sub = bt.Subtensor()
result = sub.neurons.hotkey_owner(hotkey_ss58="5F...")

Or dispatch by name, as an agent would:

result = sub.read("hotkey_owner", hotkey_ss58="5F...")

Async is the same surface awaited: async with bt.Subtensor() as client:.
