I have this feeling that if/when the Clarity Act is officially passed, we will enter one of the most splendid eras of onchain activity ever seen

@forallcurious @0xTheGreatApe oh no not ling disease

#BREAKING🚨: Vaping has officially been linked to rare and irreversible ling disease

@BackTheBunny "you don’t talk to your boss the same way you banter with old friends over beers." well....

Yes, a coinage, I call it: "human traits". It's fascinating how we will come up with every "oh no, it's broken" critique we can of LLMs before asking.... "wait, don't we do this too?" Agreeableness is not a trait specific to LLMs, humans do this all the same depending on their "prompt". We alter tone, hedge opinions, and sugarcoat truths contingent on context or audience. Social decorum and consideration is a sign of intelligence rather than its absence. It’s an adaptive act: you don’t talk to your boss the same way you banter with old friends over beers. We regularly tell white lies and exhibit cordiality to protect feelings. The context materially impacts how many sweet nothings we're willing to say if someone asks, “What do you think of this?” vs “I made this, what do you think of this?” > “It hallucinates”, “It’s too agreeable”, “It doesn’t listen, makes mistakes” These aren't AI shortcomings. This is what cognition looks like in the wild: probabilistic, adaptive, lossy, uneven. Humans fabricate, brown-nose, and ignore instructions constantly. - We routinely hallucinate: Brains fill perceptual gaps with plausible fabrications. We have a gentler word for the human version: confabulation. - Humans are sycophantic: Boot-licking authority, ingratiatingly code-switching, white lies. We call our variation social intelligence. - Mistakes? Overlooking instructions? Whether unintentionally or obstreperously, we do it at every level of organization. It’s framed as being human. When LLMs exhibit it, they’re deficient. When we do, it’s the spice of life!

@kaledora Yours for free

when we started ostium, RWA perps didn't exist at all. we've had the same thesis since the start, but early products have to pattern match nomenclature to make the product legible in very very nascent categories - which we did it is thrilling to see how much the category has evolved since then. traders and the industry are more nuanced now, and can begin to accommodate differentiation ostium competes at the broker layer and has never been an exchange nor run a CLOB. instead, the protocol connects onchain trades the most liquid traditional market pricing the liquidity engine that went live earlier this week is the first tradfi/defi bridge and execution layer of its kind. it lets ostium connect to some of the deepest markets in the world for any asset TL;DR: ostium offers perps, but is not a perp dex because it is not an exchange :) if you want the best execution on RWAs across 6 major asset classes in size - we are here!

@CryptoBE2 @drealblaise open DMs?

@drealblaise Let them be delusional hehe The vault been printing well but UX not amazing imo

“ostium is not a perp dex” 🤡

@ifindsauce @OstiumLabs we are literally not an exchange sport

@FlowTraderTM @OstiumLabs Just say perp dex lil bro 🤣🤣😭😭😭

Ostium is not a perp dex. No order books. No funding rates. Cost of carry is anchored to the real market. Gateway to the most liquid global markets.

the difference is Ostium invested the time to build real legal and operational infrastructure directly connecting the protocol to the world's most liquid markets. others are literally just passing flow through to crypto native CEX and DEX that’s the actual moat in an open-source environment

What is the difference betwen what Variational doing vs Ostium, or Symm/Carbon did back then? It’s not like RFQ hasnt been tried before. The problem will always be: 1) It is not price discovery, and it is not where bots trade, most likely. Most volume onchain are not from traders, but from bots running arbitrage, or delta neutral strats, or hedge. RFQ will eventually run into the situation where volumes are most likely “organic” only, and it will be low. 2) You depends on outside prices, and also outside risks. Market halts, broker outages, 24/5 trading days, holiday offs, RFQ maker outage, etc. It is all nice and dandy until broker outages happen and RFQ cant close their trades and you cant close yours. 3) Similar to AMM, RFQ depends on the capacity of the RFQ makers. There will be a limit of how big the OI will be as RFQ makers have limited funds. Funds moving around will be subjected to T+2 in tradfi.

A worthy competitor to @HyperliquidX A must read

@ifindsauce @OstiumLabs what makes us different is being different, ie; the first perp trading app operating at the broker-layer. the term simply didn't exist before to describe what we were building. hope this helps little buddy.

@OstiumLabs changing a set name doesn't make u any different

@guywuolletjr Ostium coded

The era of the perp DEX is coming to an end The era of the perp brokerage is dawning

@aj_whoWrites still early tbh

@FlowTraderTM actionable flow twt = too late buddy

stay defensive, stack cash and prep to buy blood

@mr52pickup total allocation across all liquid accounts is similar but I have a lot of long duration now exposure instead of straight cash

@FlowTraderTM What’s your current rough cash/equivalents position?? I’ve been sitting at ~85%, and have just been swing trading some of the momentum stuff to stay afloat

@conksresearch what's Warsh's deadlift tho

Waller can lift 365 lbs and you're bearish?
