Not so much for Latitude and DigitalOcean with no presence in Africa or the Middle East.

Most of Africa, Central Asia, South America and the Pacific islands look pretty bare too. Surprising considering energy costs and that compute can pretty much be served from anywhere...🤔

[O1 @O1labs_io]

How many cloud regions are there, really?

Regions or sites / countries:
Azure - 65 / 33
Google Cloud - 43 / 29
AWS - 34 / 27
Latitude - 20 / 13
DigitalOcean - 16 / 8

AWS, Azure and Google Cloud reach every inhabited continent.

Base - $0.0007
OP Mainnet - $0.0006
Sui - $0.0001
Stellar - $0.000004
BNB Chain* - $0.00

Same USDC, a 45,000x fee spread across chains.

*Binance-Peg USDC, not Circle-native. Its $0 median reflects sponsored transfers: 175 of 233 paid 0 gwei gas.

[O1 @O1labs_io]

What does it cost to send a digital dollar? An analysis of 2,173 USDC transfers over 7 days on the 10 busiest USDC chains, plus BNB Chain*.

Median fee:
Ethereum - $0.17
Avalanche - $0.0032
Arbitrum - $0.0032
Polygon - $0.0027
Solana - $0.0011
HyperEVM - $0.0007

5x more blocks, half the time. Worth a look if you size storage by block count.

[O1 @O1labs_io]

Base node v1.5.0 raised its proof history window from 1,296,000 to 6,480,000 blocks, and now assumes 200ms blocks instead of 2s.

v1.4 - ~30 days of history
v1.5 - ~15 days of history

[O1 @O1labs_io]

Spot price seems to follow local demand more than the chip.

[O1 @O1labs_io]

Same 8-GPU servers on AWS spot, priced in two regions.

$/hr, Stockholm vs N. Virginia:
8x B200 - $15.98 vs $81.80 (-80%)
8x H200 - $19.09 vs $38.56 (-50%)
8x RTX PRO 6000 - $38.84 vs $14.94 (+160%)

The moat is giving a fuck, not being a doomer, and waltzing through life with a smile that gives cynical people extreme pain.

Cavemen Issues Dire Warning That The Wheel Is Going To Eliminate Countless Jobs

[O1 @O1labs_io]

Read BlackRock's BUIDL contract and you'll find a function called seize().

seize(from, to, value, reason)

→ The transfer agent can call it on any wallet holding a balance.
→ The only check: funds must land in an issuer wallet.

https://t.co/FIAIgkN3LV

Turns out across tokenized assets, "own" can mean three different things.

1) Your balance can be seized

BUIDL · Apollo ACRED · VanEck VBILL · Hamilton Lane HLSCOPE
seize(from, to, value, reason)
Just like it sounds, reason string included.

EURØP
forceTransfer(from, to, amount)
Any destination.

MetaMask mUSD
forceTransfer(frozenAccount, recipient, amount)
Only from an account that's already frozen.

2) Your balance can be deleted

Ondo USDY
burn(from, amount) 🔥

Superstate USTB
adminBurn(src, amount)
Owner only.

Paxos PAXG / USDP
wipeFrozenAddress(addr)
Freeze first, then zero.

Tether USDT
destroyBlackFunds(user) 😮

3) Your balance can be frozen

USDC · EURC · FDUSD
blacklist(account) / freeze(account)
Transfers stop. Nothing in the contract moves or burns your balance.

☝️ In a sense, USDC is the baseline: the issuer can stop you, but can't seize your assets. Everything above it can.

Just a friendly reminder: Check your token's functions, not just its price.

[O1 @O1labs_io]

Same weights, same precision. What explains the spread: batching, hardware, or margin...

[O1 @O1labs_io]

Price check: identical FP8 open models across hosts.

$/1M output tokens:

Llama 3.3 70B:
Parasail - $0.50 vs DeepInfra $0.32 (-36%)

Qwen3 235B 2507:
Together - $0.60 vs DeepInfra $0.55 (-8%)

Input is wider: -55% on both.

[O1 @O1labs_io]

Same GPUs. 2 public clouds. Vastly different prices.

$/GPU-hr spot vs on-demand:

H100:
AWS - $2.20 vs $6.88 (-68%)
Azure - $2.27 vs $12.84 (-82%)

A100:
AWS - $1.83 vs $3.43 (-47%)
Azure - $0.98 vs $4.10 (-76%)

If the chip is a commodity, is region + pricing model the alpha?

You can't handle The Truth 😤

[Cursor @cursor_ai]

Cursor is now part of The X Subscription.

Current Cursor subscribers can keep their plan or switch to The X Subscription.

Paid plans share one usage pool across Cursor, Grok Build, and other Grok products, with twice the coding usage on Grok models as the equivalent Cursor plan. Premium, Super, and Ultra also include Grok Bot.

To make room for more Grok usage, third-party models in Cursor move to API pricing on the new plans. We'll keep working to make your usage go further, with more compute, better inference, and more token-efficient models.

The X Subscription is available at https://t.co/KIM9X7FZrq.

Vitalik Buterin: Without AI, Ethereum's Lean Roadmap Might Have to Wait Until 2040

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin @VitalikButerin said in an October 9 interview with Balaji Srinivasan @balajis at the Network State Conference 2026 that AI has become an important factor in advancing the Lean Ethereum roadmap.

Buterin said that given the roadmap's current goals and level of ambition, without AI, the work might have taken until 2040 or even 2050 to complete. He added that AI is now contributing to a significant amount of research and coding, substantially accelerating progress on the roadmap.

@JustDeauIt Also thinking you missed the point re: Bezos ... or Gates or Elon or Hastings or Lutke or Kalanick or Chesky or Xu or really <insert so many others who incurred short term losses for the sake of long term dominance and gains>.
