I have a strong suspicion that the OpenClaw hype is deeply connected to crypto. I can't explain why or how I know. but i know

How long are we going to do this shit for. It’s becoming more insane to me how all these big accounts keep buying this fugazi. It’s all pretrained: the model, the tools, the feedback loop. All of it runs on infrastructure it does not control. How can you call something autonomous when it can’t survive losing API keys? And the capability frontier is fixed. It can’t modify its own architecture, weights, or training data. It can rewrite code inside the box, but it can’t change the box. As with every other fugazi, there’s no agency. Without control over substrate, governance, and learning mechanisms, there is no path to open-ended growth or persistence. Technically, it’s bounded automation with language-driven planning. Useful, maybe, but not a new class of intelligence.

Because Recursive Self-Improvement selects for itself automatically, AI is intrinsically (transcendentally) accelerationist. Intelligence explosion is the most basic thing it wants.
