BIG 2026 PREDICTION: EDGE COMPUTING
I went deep into the rabbit hole with OpenClaw and setting it up for my personal uses like finance, and health. It costed me nearly $200 for over 2 weeks use. The $80 claude max ran out in a few days, and tokens from openai ran out fast. I figured that xai has the lowest cost by 10x to 15x factor. That's when I digged into a bit more with local model. With my 12GB VRAM RTX, I could run a decent model suprisingly with newer backend like vllm serving openai compatible apis.
I ordered by first Nvidia blackwell gb10 128MB VRAM to do more computation. At the pace I'm using with more frequent updates, the only economical way is local inference. Anyways my whole experience convinced me that in 2026 there will be a big shift into edge computing. Openclaw community have been buying up M3 Ultra 128GB $3500 all the way up to 512GB $10K unified RAM (eg it talks directly to the CPU). Apple is selling them like hotcakes. On the nonmac, Nvidia has been licensing to HP, Asus, and Dell. AMD also has a solution with 395+ CPU, and Intel will soon have one.
Mark my words, every company will want their own rack server, and every developer will have their own local inference computer. The price reminds me of the the same cost of my first computer 33Mhz 4GB RAM computer. As cost decreases, it will be more accessible for each person. This will be a new growth segment for $APPL $NVDA and $DELL. All have shared very bullish guidances so far.
No internet? No cellular signal? No worries—stay connected with a revolutionary new app.
Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Twitter (now X) and Block, has launched Bitchat, a fully decentralized, peer-to-peer messaging platform that operates completely off-grid, without needing internet access, cellular service, phone numbers, emails, accounts, or central servers.
Currently available in beta via Apple's TestFlight (and with an Android version in development), Bitchat leverages Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) mesh networking to enable direct device-to-device communication. Nearby phones automatically form ad-hoc networks, relaying encrypted messages hop-by-hop across multiple devices—extending range far beyond standard Bluetooth limits through a "store-and-forward" system where messages persist locally until delivered.
This design makes Bitchat highly resilient: it shines in scenarios like internet blackouts, network shutdowns, remote wilderness areas, crowded events (e.g., concerts or protests), or even airplanes without Wi-Fi. All data stays on users' devices, with end-to-end encryption ensuring privacy and no central entity collecting information.
By turning everyday smartphones into a self-sustaining communication mesh, Bitchat embodies a push toward user-controlled, censorship-resistant infrastructure—an off-grid alternative to apps like WhatsApp that keeps working precisely when traditional networks fail.
You know... Robinhood is becoming very powerful.
Remember the one time retail started winning big they manipulated the entire market on behalf of Citadel.
It’s pretty hilarious how most of CT went from cheering up for Trump and being excited about him winning the presidency to absolutely hating on orange man in just 3 months.

Want to win some free $SOL?
With the money I won from the Jake Paul fight, I was planning on giving away some money, but after thinking about it, I'm going to do a fun new contest for you guys.

Introducing: The Wallet Race
I'll start with one and if you guys like it, we'll do more and might even do it as a weekly event.
They will be different kinds of puzzles that all lead to a seed phrase that unlocks a wallet with varying amounts of money.
They'll range from easy to hard with various amounts of money in the wallet in the form of $SOL.
You'll have to transfer it to your own wallet quickly though because people will be on your heels.
This is just for fun and I hope you guys enjoy it. :)
In a tweet later this week, I'll do an announcement of a day I'll post the first puzzle.
I sat down with World Future Awards to discuss #Flux and @InFlux_Limited earning a spot in the "Top 100 Blockchain" projects.
$Flux was selected along with others, such as @PayPal, @Grayscale, @Ledger, and more. We are honored to be in the ranks, and there is much more to come. #Depin and #Web3 are a juggernaut and just getting started.
