@bluebob456@coryalthoff You are so so wrong. I mean there's already been cases of people falling in love with ChatGPT. Imagine what might happen in the future when it will be more human-like and will have a physical body.
@Guronnimo Anthropic still ahead in terms of coding (which is where almost all their profit comes from), i have have unlimited access to both fable5.1 and astra and tried both on similar tasks. astra just not as good...
@clumma In coding, after testing both Astra and Fable5.1, there's really no comparison - Fable wins by a mile.
Maybe for other tasks and day to day usage astra is better, but claude is still the king for devs doing complex work.
1/ Bitcoin staking is fully live on Starknet Mainnet ๐งก
BTC is now part of Starknetโs staking mechanism, letting Bitcoiners secure the network and earn rewards alongside STRK stakers.
A historic moment for Bitcoin and Starknet ๐งต
There is no second best.
If thatโs true for Bitcoin, itโs true for Starknet. There is no second best L2.
Today Starknet introduces Bitcoin Staking, BTCFI part of a bigger push to become the leading Bitcoin liquidity layer.
Earn with your Bitcoin. Spend with your Bitcoin. More to come.
And when it comes to buying Bitcoin in any flavor (wBTC, tBTC, LBTC, โฆ) thereโs only one place to trade on Starknet with the best execution: @avnu_fi.
Exciting times ahead!
๐จ BREAKING: $BTC holders can now stake on @Starknet to secure a Layer 2 and earn rewards without giving up custody.
This marks the launch of the first fully trustless BTC staking on any L2.
BTCFi on Starknet starts NOW.
Today marks the beginning of the epic come back of Starknet.
The ambition of BTCFi is to make Starknet:
a) the most sustainable source of yield for Bitcoin
b) the most cost-effective place to borrow against it
This is done through:
- Bitcoin staking within Starknet protocol
- Institutional onboarding with Re7
- New massive partners and infra unlock (for example LayerZero)
- BTCFi Incentive Program
The path is clear:
BTCFi โ BitVM โ Native ZK Rollup โ Hyperbitcoinization
Which means:
Apps & Liquidity โ Trust minimization โ Trustless
For me personally, what matters is Bitcoin as unstoppable p2p cash. I genuinely believe ZK is one of the best paths to improve Bitcoin as money.
The proving tech we're building is the most battle-tested, the most efficient, the purest.
The endgame vision has never been clearer. It will take time to get there, but the path exists and is credible.
In the meantime, while continuing to articulate this vision and building the rails of Starknet as trustless ZK rollup on Bitcoin, we make today a strong acceleration on the application and liquidity sides.
Some people want more from their Bitcoin. They want to use it in various financial applications. They don't want to sell or spend their Bitcoin (Gresham's law) but they've got bills to pay. They prefer to borrow against it. Or generate yield on it.
BTCFi on Starknet is for them.
From the lab to the streets. No moonmath celebration today.
The Ferrari's engine has been built. Time to take it out of the garage and open it up on the highway.
Starknet will melt faces. Starting now ๐งก
1/ Bitcoin doesnโt change. But what you can do with it just did.
From the June 2024 announcement that Starknet would scale Bitcoin, to the product rollouts of March 2025, the path has been clear.
BTCFi on Starknet is where that momentum now leads ๐งต
