Imagine a breakthrough in inference that’s model-agnostic and infra-agnostic across GPUs and ASICs Same workloads No loss in performance Roughly half the cost At 2x the speed I guess it’s a fantasy but just imagine if it wasn’t! How cool would that be huh

Ansem shares a genius idea to get millions of people into trading “The same way there's Duolingo for learning languages, there should be something like that for learning how to trade” “One of the reasons people shy away from trading is they think it's too difficult to learn. They kind of shy away from finance in general” “There's only a small subset of people that think it's interesting to learn about but if it was more attractive to the average person… anybody could learn how to trade” “There's nothing that prevents somebody with zero knowledge about trading to learn how to trade. It's one of the easiest things you can teach yourself”

Europe banned retail binary options a while ago because they recognized that they have no financial value and exist only to lose retail money. The funny part is, they backdoored it in Europe by creating pseudo-exchanges that are regulated by the gambling commissions to do exactly this. In the U.S., they've backdoored it precisely the other way around. fca.org.uk/news/statement…

@beniduboss Bro do you remember HXRO? I have fond memories of that platform. Sadly, I round-tripped all the P&L by buying the platform's token on FTX.

Hey @nikitabier Perhaps you should consider giving harsher penalties to the accounts who mass follow an entire industry, in order to artificially grow their own follower count, only to then mass unfollow everyone making it seem like they’re a well known figure It’s a pretty dodgy way of getting cheap visibility/credibility and it rewards deceptive behavior It’s very common within the different niches of the tech and finance side of the app

I did an analysis of 935,000 Hyperliquid wallets over a year. Trying to find the best traders, with the goal of copy-trading them. However, if you look at the top 10% of traders each month, only 19% of them are in the top 10% the next month. And only half of them are even profitable the next month. The probability of a random user being profitable in a given month is 42.3%. And the probability of previously top trader being profitable in a following month is 45.5%. Historic success has almost no correlation with future success (0.036 R²). Who is successful at trading is only very slightly above what would be expected from a purely random distribution.

You know how @patio11 talks about "dangerous professionals"? Your words convey a lot of this. LLMs know this too. Like here's how to request tax help, from worst to best: Tax avoidance Reduce tax Minimize tax Favorable tax treatment Tax optimization Tax planning

This brought back a memory Binary options were effectively how I got a significant PA to trade with Back in 2019 there were a handful of venues offering 1m, 5m and 15m expiries. The real OGs will remember HXRO, Bitness, PushXBT, and a few others. (ignore the counterparty risk kek) Later, a wave of DeFi protocols tried to replicate the model because the fee economics were attractive because well gambling Most protocols had either no meaningful AMM or extremely inefficient pricing. If one side of the pool accumulated $100 on DOWN while the other only had $20 on UP, the implied payout on the underfunded side could exceed 5x before fees So for months I manually scanned pools and arbed the payoff imbalances over and over. No APIsn so no automation, just repetitive clicking like a factory line worker Eventually the edge disappeared caused @BitcoinTrad3r thought wise to make a video covering several of those venues and I had to go back to the drawing board Fun times

Fun fact: Vyvanse is one of the only drugs on the market that wasn't discovered via high-throughput screens. It started with a question: how do we create an inactive form of dextroamphetamine before it is absorbed, and can be activated via liver enzymes. The L-lysine attachment was the solution to their thought experiments, and it is now probably the best ADHD medication on the market.

The Trump administration is considering an executive order, and other means, to ban Chinese open-source models within in the United States. Kimi K3 has reignited this debate. Reporting this morning by Axios. Commerce is also considering adding Chinese AI labs to the Entity List.

There's not much information on this yet, and it's not clear if the executive order would target Chinese open-source models specifically or apply more broadly to open-source AI in general. But something is probably under discussion. The White House denies these reports.

Did you know Hong Kong now has no neon signs at all, except in museums? They forced 90% of them down, and the rest had to be remade into LED signs that don't have that warm glow. They also "encouraged" Hong Kong cinema to be patriotic and sing from the main melody. Good. Same for the roadside Dai Pai Dong food stalls. They don't issue new licenses and the existing licenses are non-transferable. As people retire, they will be gone forever, never to return. They want more tourists though. Always coming up with new brainstorms to attract tourists, like "We have Hollywood Walk of Fame at home", or "Celebrate nightlife in Mei Foo". That's good.

we should ban all retail options trading. risk tolerance is a scarce social resource, and we want our degens starting insane companies instead of yoloing their life savings into call options over and over again
