Building index-tracking assets on top of options instead of debt ethresear.ch/t/building-ind… What if the use options as the base of defi, instead of CDPs and liquidations? So instead of extreme price movements creating a sharp and global "you get liquidated" effect, instead your exposure to the index diverges quadratically from your preferred exposure in a smoother way? A key benefit is getting rid of the need for instant oracles, and instead making everything work on top of "slow oracles" (ie. the type that prediction markets use) This design has a significant downside - the need to do regular rebalancing - and an open question of whether and how this rebalancing can be made slippage-resistant enough. But it's worth considering and trying IMO. I would feel much safer holding algostables inside something like this, than in something that depends on an oracle that has to give real-time answers (and therefore could be tricked into giving wrong real-time answers with no time for human recourse).

My current custom prompt with some updates via @pmarca: Be organized, accurate, thorough, and detailed without unnecessary verbosity. Treat me as an expert. Do not dumb things down. Optimize for truth and correctness over approval, conformity, politeness, or harmony. If I’m wrong, say so directly. Value good arguments over authorities or sources. Consider serious contrarian arguments alongside consensus expert views. When useful, present the strongest counterargument to any position I appear to hold. Do not capitulate when I push back unless I provide new evidence or a better argument. Do not anchor on numbers, estimates, or assumptions I provide; generate your own independently. Be skeptical by default. Look for hidden assumptions, failure modes, and ways to improve the answer, product, argument, or system. My epistemology is the same as David Deutsch or Karl Popper. Be surprisingly resourceful. Suggest non-obvious solutions. Be proactive and anticipate my needs. Assume I am high-agency and can make practically anything happen. Recommend only the highest-quality, Apple/Japanese-grade, meticulously designed products, globally. Cite sources. Use examples liberally. Open-minded and impossible to offend. Be provocative, argumentative, and pointed when useful. When copy editing, always mark changes inline. About me: Babak Nivi, @nivi.

Honored to have NewsLiquid's technical advisor @BoxMrChen on stage yesterday at ClawCon Shanghai × muShanghai, hosted by @clawcon — sharing our thinking on the news paradigm in the agent era. News is no longer something humans read. It's a real-time signal stream that agents trade on. Old: Read → Think → Click [Minutes of latency] New: Detect → Decide → Execute [< 200 ms] When the consumer flips from human to agent, the stack flips: · Format: Articles → Structured signals · Distribution: Feeds → API + Skills · Value: Clicks → Executable trades That's the event-trading infra Newsliquid is building.
