Here’s some math. I billion usd market cap is more than enough $ for gas for the entire world economy running through overledger (it’s v cheap you know). So even when every bank in the world uses the quant network the price of the QNT token will stay completely flat because the market has already estimated that approx 1B mcap is way more than sufficient for millions of tiny micro transactions involving QNT token to move the worlds money around on chain. How does that math idea strike you?

You’ve seen me debunk a shill over and over again by actually agreeing with his nonsense ideas concerning $QNT. I invite all shills. Come with math. I’m not one of these fucking hopium token people bruh. I am not here to educate anybody, especially if they claim they know it all. I will jam math down their neck and leave them to their own devices. I am a $QNT token holder. You can’t shill us.

@milesdeutscher You forgot to mention decentralised ai - like TAO. When everyone is competing for access to ai which no one else can block - guess what happens to the value of frontier level ai running on a system which no one can block? (It goes up)

The Claude Fable ban is just the tip of the iceberg. I just went down a rabbit hole I can't get out of. And it's keeping me up at night.. This is the start of the biggest geopolitical shift we've ever seen. The great weaponization of intelligence. Let me explain: For those who missed it: the US government just forced Anthropic to cut off Fable and Mythos for every foreign national on earth. Inside or outside America. Even their own non-citizen staff. Right now, it's pulled for everyone. But the obvious endgame is "Americans only." If this feels familiar, it should. The US already ran this exact playbook on chips - choking China's access to Nvidia and ASML. They're just moving it up the stack. Silicon was rung one. Models are rung two. And the second that happens, there's no going back. The headline alone gives away the real motive: the US wants full control over the world's best intelligence. Here's where my brain went next.. If access goes US-only, the workarounds start day one. Hire an American to front it. Spin up a US LLC. Route everything through it. Every non-US founder will think this. Myself included. But here's the uncomfortable part: This won't be available to everyone. If you're rich, there'll be a way around it. Just like tax. A US LLC. The right resident director. An offshore structure. The same playbook the wealthy already run. Access to the best intelligence on earth quietly becomes another thing reserved for the elite. Everyone else gets the throttled, sanctioned version. This only accelerates the wealth divide. But the wealth divide is only scratching the surface of what's really happening.. This trend pours rocket fuel on open source. Lock the rest of the world out of the best closed models, and you hand the entire planet a reason to fund and adopt open weights at scale. You don't slow the tech down. You guarantee it spreads. Which is the one thing that softens the divide I just described - open weights become the release valve. The whole game now is how wide the gap stays between the frontier and the free stuff. It splits the labs. OpenAI and others may take the opposite stance to scoop up everyone the US just locked out. They've already shown they're happier playing ball with the government. So this could badly backfire on Anthropic commercially. No business wants to be cut off from the world. Every company wants to be global. Nationalization is anti-business, anti-productivity. There's a reason globalization has won over the past century. AI might be the first technology powerful enough to reverse that trend. And the ramifications go way beyond tech. Now zoom out to national level. This is the part that actually keeps me up. Every major nation: UK, Australia, Europe - just got put on notice. You cannot rely on access to American intelligence. That realization alone will trigger a sovereign AI arms race. Countries will be desperate to build their own models. The problem is that almost no country can match the US funding. Except one. China. Lock the world out of American models, and you don't automatically create a US monopoly. You risk pushing every non-aligned country straight into China's arms - whose stack is largely open-weight already. So the US has two choices: lose the world to China, or use access as leverage before that happens. Bet on which one they pick. A.k.a "weaponizing" AI. Just like they've done with the USD as the reserve currency and the petrodollar. Conversations will begin happening behind closed doors. It could be as direct as: "You want access? Let us station naval and air assets here." Or softer: "Adopt our AI rules, our chip controls, our alignment - or you're outside the stack." Either way, intelligence becomes a bargaining chip. Allies will be forced to comply, or watch their people fall behind - because once AI is driving GDP growth, you effectively can't compete without it. The US essentially trades a slice of their productivity edge to allies (not everyone) in exchange for military positioning and reserve-currency dominance. Essentially sparking the great weaponization of intelligence. This isn't your typical tech headline. We're watching the world get redrawn around who controls intelligence. And almost no one is paying attention.

You are obviously a quant marketing bot. As I said in my other 2 replies to your avalanche of posts. It is up to Quant now to show network usage and explain how this translates into a price increase (or decrease) for the QNT token. Holders have been holding for years. Marketing posts like this on x are pointless. Only real proven adoption and disclosure of how this will affect QNT token price going forwards is of any interest. So for now - price stays flat.

It's funny how nobody even considers Fusion in the L2 scaling segment. It solves interoperability so well that it becomes a side show. It batches off chain like any other rollup, but also enables transactional volume to settle horizontally on different L1s. $QNT

It’s all sounds good. In practice QNT holders are waiting for Luke to come back on Telegram and explain when there will be a dashboard available to observe any real usage of the network (just launched) and when (if?) QNT holders will be able to stake their QNT. Or, more importantly- why QNT holders might want to stake. (What purpose does staking serve and what is the reward mechanism?) But that would involve providing public information about the QNT token which Quant have so far refused to do

Just like that. Canton obsolete. ethereum:0x4a220e6096b25eadb88358cb44068a3248254675

The problem is no one knows (publicly) how much institutional participation is required to move the token price 2x / 10x / 100x. This is probably deliberate on Quants part as they have famously disowned the existence of the token for many of the past turbulent years involving SEC scrutiny. But even with the SEC threat tamed Quant are very coy about any correlation between institutional utility and the price of their utility token. A pessimistic view could very reasonably say that a 1 billion market cap of QNT (current price at under 100 usd) is way more than needed as a gas token sunk for the institutional involvement over the next 5 years. Or - in other words token price stays flat or goes down.

Every single $QNT holder needs to understand this now that mainnet is live. The greatest structural bid in crypto history is being wired directly into your asset. Here is exactly how Quant is capturing the entire multi-trillion-dollar global banking reset.

@tigfoundation I think we need decentralised AI to solve the problem you have identified. Tao is the most promising atm. Have you looked at it?

So Claude launched Fable - which is a nerfed version of Mythos We're finally starting to see what we have predicted for a long time. The beginnings of managed stagnation. The most powerful version stays in-house, everyone else gets a throttled copy. Select "trusted" teams got access to Mythos while everyone else got Fable (and not for long - it appears that it will be available only via extra usage from June 22) meaning even the nerfed version will cost $$$ We're starting to see rich / whatever "trusted" means in this context get access to the latest and best models while everyone else gets access to a worse one They also added "novel" safeguards - including limiting what it does when used for frontier LLM development! It limits what the model does (i.e. further nerfs it) without the user even know via methods such as prompt modification. e.g. you give it a task, it returns you an output but behind the scenes if it didn't like what you asked, it changes your prompt into something it does like, and returns that without you being aware!!! And they mention LLM development as a specific aspect that's blocked! This is like Microsoft shutting down the PC when it sensed Linus Torvalds coding Linux. This is managed stagnation in its early form. One company holds the frontier and rations who gets it. The best model goes to a trusted few, a weaker one to everyone willing to pay, and nothing at all to the rest. That is exactly what open algorithms break. You can't nerf math that is already in the open. This is the fork in the road. Either algorithms go open in the next year or one company owns the future and never gives it back.

@ToonDazza Westminster

What is the collective noun for a group of cunts...?

I didn’t read Vance’s post - maybe scanned it for 2 secs. I did read a couple of takedowns of it. That’s all I need. Your analysis is completely right imo. Vance mis-fired on this issue. I also scanned your bio for 2 seconds. Lots of tech intel plus some politics. Smart - I will follow you.

The problem with JD Vance commenting on UK politics is that his comment was a bad one. The death of Henry Nowak is not considered, by most critics of the government here, an immigration issue. It’s a police training issue. An issue with a misaligned state that prioritises managing multiculturalism over doing its actual job.

@IceXTruths This is a very important post and a good argument for decentralised ai to avoid the problem of such immense power concentrated in only a few human hands. Do you know of any decentralised ai projects that might be useful? I’m sure others will suggest a few.

Há momentos na história em que uma frase revela mais do que mil páginas de propaganda. Em Davos 2026, Yuval Noah Harari praticamente admitiu aquilo que muitos ainda se recusam a enxergar: a Inteligência Artificial não está sendo apresentada apenas como uma ferramenta. Está sendo apresentada como uma nova entidade capaz de substituir funções humanas, ocupar espaços sociais, influenciar culturas, moldar religiões, controlar mercados e, eventualmente, receber reconhecimento jurídico. Perceba a mudança de linguagem. Não se fala mais em programas. Não se fala mais em softwares. Não se fala mais em máquinas. Fala-se em "agentes". Fala-se em "imigrantes digitais". Fala-se em inteligências que poderão administrar empresas, movimentar contas bancárias, criar religiões, participar da política e exercer influência sobre bilhões de pessoas. A pergunta feita em Davos não foi tecnológica. Foi civilizacional. O que acontece quando os seres humanos deixam de ser os principais produtores de conhecimento, informação e narrativa? Quem controla as palavras controla a percepção. Quem controla a percepção controla a realidade. E quem controla a realidade controla sociedades inteiras. Durante séculos, governos disputaram territórios. Depois passaram a disputar petróleo, comércio e recursos naturais. Agora a disputa é pelo controle da inteligência. Pela capacidade de influenciar pensamentos antes mesmo que eles surjam. O mais curioso é que tudo isso está sendo apresentado como inevitável. Como se a humanidade estivesse diante de um fenômeno natural. Como se ninguém estivesse tomando decisões. Como se não existissem corporações bilionárias, centros de dados gigantescos, governos, investidores e organizações globais financiando essa transformação. A pergunta que ninguém faz é simples: Se a IA passar a produzir a maior parte das informações que consumimos, quem programará os valores que estarão dentro dessas informações? Quem definirá o que é verdade? Quem definirá o que é discurso aceitável? Quem definirá o que pode ou não ser dito? Porque, no final das contas, não estamos falando apenas de tecnologia. Estamos falando de poder. Poder sobre informação. Poder sobre cultura. Poder sobre educação. Poder sobre religião. Poder sobre economia. Poder sobre a própria definição do que significa ser humano. A Revolução Industrial substituiu músculos. A Revolução Digital substituiu tarefas. A Revolução da IA ameaça substituir a própria capacidade humana de interpretar o mundo. E quando uma civilização entrega sua capacidade de pensar para sistemas que ela não controla, ela não está avançando. Ela está terceirizando a própria liberdade. A verdadeira pergunta não é se a IA será poderosa. A verdadeira pergunta é: Quem será poderoso através dela?

It’s an interesting concept that the Tories have colluded and manufactured Restore with Rupert Lowe to push the Overton Window further to the right to prevent Reform from gaining power. That is what you are claiming is happening isn’t it? - or if I have misunderstood pls clarify. No hostility - genuinely interested.

I feel like UK Politics needs new nomenclature Lib Dems are basically just The Tupperware Party. Cooing virtue signallers with zero substance designed to appeal to Waitrose Woman The Men Can Also Go Into Labour Party. There isn't a truth inversion or gaslighting manipulation or faux moralising blackmail they wouldn't adopt The Trying To Conserve Ourselves Party. If they had spent more time serving the people rather than playing constant parlour games, they might not have driven the country over a cliff The Green Flag of Islam Party. The pantone neatly moved from eco lunacy to Jihadism pretty swiftly The ResTory Party. Made to look and sound more right wing than Reform - in order to destroy Reform, courtesy of psy-op loving Tories desperate to somehow still control everything

@MrHreviews What is a ‘faux nationalist cul-de-sac containment’ please? I genuinely want to understand what you are trying to say in your post. I think it might be important but it is not clear what you mean.

Tommy Robinson is beginning to realise that the discourse is stepping over him now and the nice little faux nationalist cul-de-sac containment he has created, which conveniently lines his pockets of course. just because Tommy likes some Sikh's does not mean we have to give our homeland to them.

@badass_Snipper @cfdownes_ How is Africa relevant to this conversation?

@cfdownes_ How the hunter becomes the hunted How bout you first ask UK government to withdraw all their people who has been exploiting Africa and other so called world countries and maybe then you can have yourself a deal

We don’t want a statement from the Digwa family, we want them on a plane back to the third world where they belong.

@tailopez Hmm … in your list you left out the biggest wealth transfer mechanism in the history of mankind. Do you know what it is? (Maybe worth reading up on it if you are interested in getting rich)

Odds of making $1 million: 🎰 Lottery: 0.0000003% 🏈 Pro athlete: 0.03% 💍 Marrying into money: 4% 📈 Stock market: 10% 🏠 Real estate: 18% 💼 Business owner: 24%

@DeborahMeaden I don’t understand the connection. Pls explain because I am stupid. Are you saying that to drill for oil and gas the uk would need to import an immigrant workforce? Genuine question. Pls explain your post

You can’t promote fossil fuel extraction AND hate immigrants… well, you can but that would show a complete inability to connect two very very large dots.

@NelsAlmhere @DeborahMeaden Did she inherit wealth to get her started? I thought she was a self made business woman?

@DeborahMeaden Debs again showing why social media was such a reputation killer for her. We get to see her comically spazztard, hot takes, delivered daily. It also confirms that the substantial family money was 100% key to her success.

You have posted recently that all everyone has to do is find a few subnets and get rich. Now ur saying many subnets are shit-scammers. Getting tired of your posts now. Maybe YOU need a culling. Didn’t you say you were giving this shit up a while back? Pls give it up asap. You are done making a living on advising others. Concentrate on your own investments and pls pls keep quiet about them.

Too many scammers in and around #bittensor The house needs a culling $TAO

An ‘impossible choice’ is choosing which child murder under forced conditions - eg the US film ‘Sophie’s Choice’ where nazis force the mother to choose which child will be killed. The ‘impossible choice’ put forward by the bbc is whether to sell your 9yr old daughter into sexual slavery to get more food. The bbc really needs to get on top of what will quickly escalate into a PR disaster here.

Yeah, it's very much the fathers who are the victims in this Islamist trade in young girls to be raped every day for the rest of their lives by strangers they must call their husbands. Absolutely spot on, @BBCWorld. You don't hate the BBC enough.

Read the community note you halfwit. People who are unable to call out child rape as a bad thing (for ideological reasons) really are the stupidest. (That’s you - just to make it 100% clear) BBC frames Afghan fathers selling daughters as sympathetic. All profiled cases involve girls (e.g. 5-year-old). Selling daughters for marriage is a longstanding cultural practice in parts of Afghanistan. BBC focuses on fathers' distress over outcomes for the girls (rape). childmarriagedata.org/country-profil…

@JuliaHB1 @BBCWorld Read the actual piece you halfwit. People that get their nickers in a twist over BBC headlines really are the stupidest.

The bbc are reporting on the ‘horrendous humanitarian crisis’ as if it were a simple poverty / starvation dilemma. But the new dimension here is fathers selling their own babies into sex slavery to alleviate poverty. Surely see a difference between these 2 things? Or does being hungry mean it’s ok to sell your baby for sex in your opinion ? (What I call ‘babies’ are 9yr old girls).

@JuliaHB1 @BBCWorld They are REPORTING on the horrendous humanitarian crisis. REPORTING what is going on does not mean they agree with or condone it. I guess this is the click baiting rage baiters email of the day. REPORTING & understanding what happens in the world is important.

@JohnBal1946 @JuliaHB1 @BBCWorld Please enlighten us John. What is the ‘plight’ that encourages a man to sell his tiny daughter to a pedophile to be raped for the rest of her life? Please explain it to us. You are obviously so much cleverer than the other people commenting on this issue

@JuliaHB1 @BBCWorld Your ignorance of the appalling plight of some of the poorest people in the world who we and the US abandoned after 20 years of progress is typical of you and people with no knowledge of mass poverty,tribal traditions,however backward and starvation.
