FOMO about Xandeum Mainnet? Run a pNode on Mainnet, it's permissionless. Same hardware specs as devnet for now. The install script will ask for devnet vs mainnet when you install.

After 15 years of investing, we realised that truly exceptional founders have something impossible to fake: deeply unconventional lives. We analysed 15,000 founders using five binary signals to measure this: odd hobbies, early signs of exceptionalism, extreme life choices, unusual geographies, non-linear careers. These sum to give a 0-5 score per founder. Whether someone started coding at 10, speaks five languages, climbed Everest or quit a safe job to live in Chile, the signal was deviation from the mean. Rather than focusing on IQ or EQ, we call this metric the Outlier Quotient, or “OQ”. When forecasting founder success, it turns out that OQ was the single most predictive variable in our entire classification model, trained on ~70 different factors. Our OQ score had zero correlation with having worked at a top-tier company or attending an elite university. The signals most VCs rely on aren’t just noisy, they’re blinding. The best founders don’t signal like everyone else, they don’t think like everyone else, and they certainly don’t build like everyone else. If you want to spot breakout talent before the rest of the market, stop screening for conformity. Back the founders the system was built to filter out.

Grok foundation model V9-Medium (1.5T) has finished training. Evals look good. A lot of Cursor data was added in supplementary training and there is more to come. Fine-tuning is underway and reinforcement learning begins in a few days. 2 to 3 weeks to public release. This will be a major improvement over the 0.5T v8-small that currently serves all Grok production traffic, especially for difficult coding tasks.

A Solana storage network just put its roots into Bitcoin. @Xandeum a decentralized storage built on Solana now writes a cryptographic fingerprint of its entire state into bitcoin at every consensus checkpoint. Permanently. Immutably. Forever. "Solana gives us the speed and programmability to scale storage to exabytes,” said @bernieblume, Founder and CEO of Xandeum. “Bitcoin gives us something Solana wasn’t built for: the most battle-tested permanence record in computing history. Our customers shouldn’t have to choose. Now they don’t.." @Solana as the CPU. @Bitcoin as the hard drive receipt. This is what multi-chain infrastructure looks like. h/t @beincrypto

Using LLMs like Claude for trading bots won't give you a sustainable edge. Training your own models from scratch does.
