The legacy financial system has arrived. One January 10th, numerous Bitcoin ETFs were approved. But is this even a good thing? What does this signal for the legitimacy of Bitcoin as an asset? What does it mean for the sovereignty of the network? This could both bring trillions of dollars in liquidity into Bitcoin and…

" Channel liquidity and offline receives, in my opinion, are the two most obvious reasons why self-custodial lightning is not popular. When most users hear about any of these, they just think "screw that" and move to a custodial wallet because it is so much easier. If these were our only two problems, I think…
Read More"The computers used to create valuable new Bitcoin tokens and validate transactions consume around the same amount of energy as a medium-sized country such as Sweden would generate. Hence the stinging critique of how this cryptocurrency wastes the planet’s precious resources." — Ian Birrell Is it true that Bitcoin only wastes energy and is the…

It keeps velocity up like hot potato. If you want to store value silver gold and land. Because it's beautiful useful and valuable. Bitcoin is a…

The models, the tools, the implementations, everything is moving incredibly fast.
But a very interesting trend that I’ve been seeing, is that the open source benchmarks are improving just slightly faster than the closed source alternatives. Slowly but surely, they are catching up.
The day may come where the open source models are the best models, the ones with the greatest number of tools, and the largest variety of implementations, because naturally they’re open and available for everyone to work on.
There have been numerous new developments on running models more efficiently, running larger models on even smaller devices, and doing so with less power and computational overhead, as well as a new advancement in one of my favourite open source models, which may just be a big leap forward for how these are going to evolve moving forward. And that is what today’s episode of AI Unchained is all about.
A big leap for local LLMs.

"Since 2017, bitcoin has been Stone Ridge’s treasury reserve asset because of my extreme aversion to risk. We run net short USD – which is fancy way of saying we net borrow fiat – to pay bills and make investments. We save in bitcoin. It would be impossible to overstate the corporate advantages of being…

This amounts to the emancipation of this Nation from personal, national, and state debt purportedly owed…
Read More“This makes Bitcoin miners uniquely symbiotic with energy grids serving as “demand response” partners. If energy is ever in short supply, people get priority over Bitcoin miners. However whenever there is excess energy, it gets monetized. This symbiotic relationship leads to more energy abundance generally.” ~ Brandon Quittem Another great piece coming at you today…
