It’s funny you say this- because I started with Ollama as the main local host. Once I learned it capped the number of layers that I can have on the GPU for the Quin3.5 MoE to 30- pushing the other 11 to the system RAM- I said fuck it and switched my backend to llama.cpp - best decision ever.

AMD 7900 XTX running Qwen 3.5 through ollama. 70 tok/s on 9B, 30 tok/s on 27B. these are real community numbers on AMD hardware. but ollama and similar wrappers add abstraction layers that hide what's actually happening. default context sizes, no KV cache quantization, no flash attention control, no slot management. convenience has a cost. if you're running any inference engine with a nice UI and "it just works" defaults, try swapping to raw llama.cpp with the same model. add the flags yourself. there might be speed and efficiency you're leaving on the table. not saying ollama is bad. it's great for getting started. but once you care about tok/s and VRAM, you need to see what's underneath. AMD data points are rare. more of these please.

@sudoingX I’m definitely trying to keep up! Hah. Finally got Vllm yesterday to run the 35B MoE model running on my 3090 - really appreciate all your research and insights! 🙌

if you're running benchmarks, testing configs, or contributing hardware data and i haven't followed you back yet, just tell me. i probably missed it. this space grows when builders find each other.

@sudoingX Can’t wait to see the quality of the code 👀

Qwen3.5-35B-A3B. 35 billion parameters, only 3 billion active per token. 4-bit quant, 19.7 GB on disk. ran it from 4K context all the way to full native 262K on a single 3090. zero offloading. all layers on GPU. speed didn't move. 112 tok/s at 4K. 114 at 262K. flat line. default settings will OOM at 262K on this card. one flag unlocks it. full breakdown and the unlock command are in the chart below. turns out this model isn't a pure transformer. 30 out of 40 layers are Mamba2 statespace. fixed memory no matter how long the context. only 10 layers carry KV cache. that's why scaling is free. the model doesn't notice the difference between 4K and 262K because 75% of its layers genuinely don't care. full native context on a 4-bit quant on a single consumer card. already impressed before touching code quality. running Claude Code on this next. if it codes anything like it scales, this changes the local inference game.

🚨 BIG UPDATE – WebAuth Just Leveled Up 🚨 PayPal’s stablecoin $PYUSD is now live on @XPRNetwork as $XPYUSD. Here’s why this matters: • Send & receive $PYUSD between @webauthwallet and PayPal • WebAuth now supports XRPL, bridge your XRP into @XPRNetwork • Swap $XXRP → $XMD (@MetalDollarXMD) → $PYUSD • In the U.S.? Move $PYUSD straight to Venmo This is compliant, regulated DeFi connecting: XRPL 🤝 XPR 🤝 PayPal 🤝 Venmo No gas games. No high fee roulette. Infrastructure is being built right in front of you. ⚛️ Know What You Hold!

@PR0H0S You gotta pump those numbers up- those are rookie numbers

when did this become normalized?

Seriously

@lynk0x You should see their face when they find out you have 6-7 figures in crypto 🤣

Normal people learning you have over $1000 invested in crypto.

@Brooke_Lin1 🤣🤣🤣🙌

I Bought $250,000 Worth of Cocaine No, that’s not a typo. That’s roughly 5 kilograms of ultra-pure, Bolivian flake — the kind of white asset class that’s been outperforming fiat, faith, and fiscal restraint since the 1980s. Most people would call it criminal. But let me explain the thesis. Each gram goes for about $50 today. But over the past 40 years, the street price of premium product has defied gravity, inflation, and international law — up nearly 900% since Reagan, and still climbing every time the Fed hikes rates. Meanwhile, governments keep inflating currencies and deflating dopamine. The world runs on anxiety and Adderall, but the real energy trade has always been white, scarce, and globally liquid. So what happens when the next crash hits, the markets freeze, and morale evaporates? When optimism becomes contraband, those who held the original confidence powder — the “hard assets” of the happiness economy — will see their margins skyrocket. Supply will vanish overnight, replaced by fentanyl-laced impostors and corporate substitutes. My $250,000 position, therefore, isn’t a “stash.” It’s an asymmetrical hedge against stagnation, prohibition, and despair. Worst case? I sit on $250,000 of historically inelastic demand — a tangible, portable reserve currency that never decays and always clears. Best case? Prices triple, cartels consolidate, or governments legalize and institutionalize the product, turning legacy purity into a collectible, tradable relic of the analog high. It’s not Bitcoin. It’s not bullion. It’s not even biotech. It’s five kilos of compressed confidence — a hedge against inflation, legislation, and motivation itself. That’s deep value. That’s the Cocaine Standard.

@TeckncalTuesday @LOAN_Protocol This is dope AF

🔥Just finished my Metallicus Lending Profile Optimizer (CLI Version) for @LOAN_Protocol 🔥 This tool simulates recursive borrowing loops on the Metallicus Lending platform to find the most profitable asset to borrow — optimizing your LOAN rewards, Deposit APY, and Net annual yield (99% accuracy) ➡️Just enter in your baseline deposits and target loan health and this tool will do the rest. ➡️It pulls everything directly from on-chain data - no manual guesswork. The screenshot below shows: 🔹A ranked list of every asset (XLM, XADA, XETH, etc.) by net yearly profit ($/yr) 🔹Columns for Simulated Borrows, Deposit APY, Borrow APY, LOAN Rewards / yr, etc 🔹An optimized recommendation section showing the best recursive borrow 🔹Full portfolio summary with updated deposit and borrow balances The CLI Version is available for a few people to test out so I can get some feedback. DM me for details. Currently working on integrating this into a website to make it look pretty 🦋 (Not affiliated with Metallicus) P.S. I blacked out a few details - gotta keep the top optimized results hidden for now 🔥 $XPR $LOAN #METALLICUS #DEFI $MTL $XRP $HBAR $XLM

@RichOToole You mean you don’t?

In 5000 years when they find this buried in the rubble they are going to think Texans worshiped a bronze beaver lol.

@sue_xbt I’ll give you $100 🙃

I bought this NFT in April 2021 for $17,000 Today it's worth $10

@WallStreetApes Sold my Tundra specifically because of this bullshit hahaha

@DearS_o_n Life is good bro- business is growing, mind is clear, future looking brighter than ever. 💪

There is a MAN somewhere right now who has: - no girlfriend - no side chics - no sneaky links Just by himself and fixing himself. How is life, bro?

@davidbateman Serious question- if I wanted to put $100k into silver- what’s the best way to do it? Multifamily isn’t what it used to be….

If Trump gave every household $2000 worth of silver (the main money used for the last 5,000 years) in stimulus, it would eat up 6.5 years of global silver mining supply. Trump probably couldn’t give every household even a single ounce of silver ($47). There’s not enough. This is why I’m trading my dollars for silver, and why Trump is begging you to buy bitcoin

@GrantCardone Avg cost per door in multifamily is between 100k - 200k EACH. Yet somehow ima buy a quad plex with $5k? Lmfao. You must be high @GrantCardone

How to invest your last $5,000...

🚨 Modernizing Payments = A New Financial Era 🚨 On March 25, 2025, President Trump signed the Executive Order “Modernizing Payments To and From America’s Bank Account.” It takes effect Sept 30, 2025, just days away. Now everyone’s talking. But almost no one is asking who built the rails or noticing the timeline. Look closer 👇 🟣 $METAL Blockchain & $XPR ecosystem • Layer-0 architecture with A-Chain DeFi subnets • Stablecoin index (CU Stables, Bank Stables, Fed Stables) • WebAuth identity + full BSA/KYC/AML compliance • ISO 20022 + FedNow ready And here’s the part people overlook: February 5, 2025, @MarshallHayner pinned a post saying, “It’s time to put the US Treasury on-chain with KYG (Know-Your-Government)… all expenses tracked real-time, fully transparent.” Who else in crypto calls their shot like that before the Executive Order was even signed? No other blockchain CEO. That’s intentional. There is a reason why Marshall is know as the "Steve Jobs of Crypto", he’s been shaping blockchain since the early days of 2009 to policy since helping draft the 2020 Cryptocurrency Act which later help shaped the Genius Act and Clarity Act. The Metallicus stack he built is tailor-made for this moment: credit-union stablecoins, white-labeled banking apps, and a compliance framework that plugs directly into the U.S. payment system. Timeline tells the story: • Feb 5, 2025 – Marshall posts the vision • Mar 25, 2025 – Trump signs the Executive Order • Sept 30, 2025 – Implementation begins The dots connect. I discovered Metallicus only months ago, but once it clicked, I never looked back. This isn’t hype, it’s the parallel financial system. The rails for the new monetary system are built. The switch flips next. #KWYH #MovetoMetal #METAL #XPR #LOAN #XMD #WebAuthWallet #ISO20022 #FedNow #ModernizingPayments #FollowThePurpleBrickRoad
