Catalla

For a startup team, more resources are always better. Sometimes it’s not us who have the power to choose, but the investors and foundations.

@mattytay @solana @toly Long-term success is the accumulation of continuous short-term successes.

Saw a lot of bickering on the timeline today. In my experience of being inside and now outside of the @Solana Foundation, I can assure you that Solana Foundation/SOL KOL/@Toly support has little to do with your startup's long-term success or failure.

Catalla is a self-resolving prediction market for unverifiable outcomes. We remove the oracle entirely — eliminating insider trading and oracle manipulation. Inspired by Harvard research, we ship two mechanisms: random settlement via Switchboard VRF, and information-increment profit through price discovery. We also replaced the paper's AMM with a CLOB — tighter spreads, real liquidity, production-grade infrastructure. Unlike Polymarket, Catalla doesn't need an oracle. We settle on market consensus. When Polymarket's outcome conflicts with consensus, Catalla still pays consensus — making us a perfect hedge. Take the Zelensky-suit dispute. Polymarket falls back to UMA voting, which whales can manipulate. Catalla settles at the last trade price — say 80% YES, 20% NO — and YES plus NO always equals one. Both sides redeem at consensus. Users profit from price movement, not from waiting for an oracle. Users are profit-driven. Creating markets, triggering termination, and trading itself all earn fee shares — driving deep, organic liquidity.

@TeslaSynopsis No, we should go to Uranus

Shall we go back to the moon?

@Diesol @runwayml so cool

This is the best AI-generated movie trailer I have personally done! I am happy to share my latest AI trailer, "BloodSpace," based on a feature film I am currently developing. Make sure you watch til the end! I had to sneak in at least one shot with @runwayml's new last-frame tool. That's the power of these AI films; you can edit them up to release within minutes. I used many different AI tools to bring this vision to life and I can geek out in the notes if anyone is interested. A few top of mind were @runwayml Gen 3, Midjourney 6.1, @Kling_ai, and @LumaLabsAI Dream Machine. I wanted vampires on the moon, and dammit, I got my vampires on the moon! Cheers!

@jessepollak If you just need a rendering, you can draw a sketch manually and then import it into some AI tools to generate a rendering. If you need a detailed model, it is recommended to use blender.

Here's a look behind the scenes of how I used a 3d model, generated from an image, as a "driver" for ai animation. In the near future we'll see more 3d tools that support these types of workflows, with much more emphasis on enhancing user input instead of just letting the ai do everything. I used the 3d model to generate keyframes that I then animated in Luma Dream. By using a 3d model with a diffusion "layer" done with Krea, I got quite high quality frames with a relatively high consistency as well since the AI didn't have to "hallucinate" that much. I upscaled and detailed the frames using Magnific. Using semi-detailed 3d models as drivers for gen ai is very powerful, and it allows us to use models that are sculpted in a more free-flowing type of workflow that doesn't rely so much on high surface detailing or very time-consuming finish, but instead relies more on gestural 3d sculpting. #art #ai

@elonmusk so,everyone is a node？

The physicality of the brain becomes startlingly obvious upon inspection: it is a biological computer. Our brains shrinks over time as we age and when you see the brain of someone with severe dementia, the damage is not subtle. What is surprising is that it functions at all.

@AdrianDittmann Because it is safe

Why be normal when you can choose to be exceptional

@cb_doge Or maybe we live in a giant capital market and we are just mining machine

"Our reality might be a video game & we're all just computer simulations being played by a teenager on another planet"

@worldnetwork we're mining machine

Are we human?

what is mining machine? #Crypto #BTC #Mining

@elonmusk We need a 'normal person' for president in 2024
