Update: added RNNT variant — higher quality, still 42x realtime. 18 min video → 25 sec.

I ported GigaAM-v3 to Apple MLX - Russian speech recognition at 180x realtime on MacBook. 18 min video ~21 seconds.

GigaAM by @SberDevices beats Whisper-large-v3 on Russian (70:30 in blind eval). Now it runs natively on Apple Silicon without PyTorch.

🚀 MAJOR MILESTONE: Just shipped massive performance optimizations!
📈10-20x performance gains:
Lock contention:100%→5-10%
Write ops:8ms→0.5ms
Production-ready with enterprise monitoring!
Next: Real trading validation 👀

👋 Building a futures arbitrage bot in Rust

Not just price spreads - also tracking funding rates across exchanges.

Why futures? Funding payments every 8h create additional profit opportunities that spot arbitrage misses.

Building in public 🧵👇

[Alex Yakovlev @ayakovlev_dev]

✅ Unified logging system across all exchanges
✅ Streamlined trade execution logic
✅ Removed complex leverage configurations
✅ Cleaner, more reliable codebase

🚀 LIVE TRADING STARTED!
Futures arbitrage bot now running on Binance & Bybit APIs (testnet!)
Just killed 500+ lines of retry logic → 30% simpler code = faster execution ⚡️
When your refactor unlocks production readiness 🔥
#BuildInPublic #TradingBot #Rust

[Alex Yakovlev @ayakovlev_dev]

✅ Simplified connection management
✅ Streamlined API response handling
✅ Removed complex state synchronization
✅ More maintainable codebase
Less complexity = more reliability! Sometimes the best code is the code you don't write.
#RustLang #TradingBot #Architecture #Crypto

[Alex Yakovlev @ayakovlev_dev]

🛠️ Added a position reconciliation system that compares local state with exchange positions, logging any discrepancies. Critical for detecting silent failures in order execution.
Next: Implement this for order streams on OKX exchange.

[Alex Yakovlev @ayakovlev_dev]

📊 Performance insights: With WebSockets, we're seeing ~350ms faster trade confirmation vs REST polling. Using Tokio's async tasks + Arc<RwLock<>> for thread-safe state management.
Key challenge: Each exchange needs custom authentication refresh mechanisms!
🧵2/3 #FuturesTrading

[Alex Yakovlev @ayakovlev_dev]

🔧 Just implemented real-time private order streams for our #RustLang crypto arbitrage bot! The system now connects to WebSockets on Binance, Bybit, https://t.co/RpLWUVsQbq, and MEXC to receive instant order updates instead of polling.

Progress update on the futures arbitrage bot:

✅ Real-time price feeds from 5 exchanges
✅ Funding rate tracking & alerts
🔄 Working on: Semi-automated execution
