The secret is in convergence proofs. Its a new cryptographic primitive based on which all collective learning will be based.
I do believe this is a thing that is to collective on chain learning as transformers to conventional ai.
Thanks to convergence proofs validators can match results of in gpu operations on floats on a per byte level.
You can ask any computer scientist that its kinda impossible, but with CFT its already a part of the history. Its done. Interesting times ahead!

Look, here is the simple argument on why @robostrategy ( $BOT ) at 33 USD per share is EXTREMELY CHEAP
- currently, the 3.3x premium to NAV is based on the LAST funding round from last year
- last funding round for the largest positions are: Figure 39bil and Apptronik 5.3bil
- these are the two leading US humanoid robotics companies. And their combined market cap is lower than that of Cardano from SIX months ago. Cardano has around four dozen real users, quite frankly I have literally never someone who interacted with the chain before since 2020. Meanwhile, every single human job will be replaced by a robot from one of these companies including all delivery guys, all construction workers, all farmers, etc. The winning robotics companies will be the next OpenAI and Anthropics, It’s inevitable that they will be IPOing at 1 trillion+. All the money that was printed since Covid is now in the market, we are in a new paradigm of high valuation IPOs as you can already clearly see from the upcoming ipos
- these companies are going to raise more money in the next months, not years. A very conservative 3x would put the NAV at 1x and these valuations would still be low compared to the latest IPOs. More likely, they are going to raise at MUCH HIGHER valuations and you are basically buying them at a discounted 0.6 - 0.9 NAV
- on top of that, Robostrategy will get access to deals you would never get access to and for those new deals, you are buying at 1x NAV. Only the seeded companies were trading at a premium, every new investment will be at 1x NAV, so you are basically getting the same access at the same valuation as the big VCs
- and you have stock like liquidity, no being locked up for years without possibility to exit except at a huge discount. Nothing is more important than liquidity
- other comparable closed ended funds of hot startups have traded at 40x NAV while Robostrategy is basically a few announcements away from being at NAV
- above all, you are in before robotics has its ChatGPT moment where hyperspeculation will begin. Except this time, companies IPO at 1 trillion USD instead of 100bil like they used to in the past. All the money printing is showing its effect
The most bullish sectors rn are AI, medicine, energy and robotics. Everything is mainstream and already pumped. Robotics is still not mainstream and, thus, it’s the only industry where you are still early. You are NOT early to the Anthropic IPO. You are not early to SpaceX IPO, which is projected to make 4,000 new millionaires
also, the memes are going to be insane

🚨 Anthropic just showed a 27-minute workshop on how to actually do prompts for Claude.
Taught by the people who built it.
Free. No registration. No paywall.
I've seen $300 courses that don't cover what they teach in the first 8 minutes.

A Difficult Personal Decision
I’ve made the personal decision to step away from trading on HyperLiquid. And I want to stress that word - personal (and difficult). I’m not asking anyone to follow me. I’m simply acting in alignment with where my values have moved.
Most of you have watched my thinking evolve over time. That’s what we’re supposed to do as human beings: evolve, refine, shed old frameworks, and build better ones.
And look - I know you’re not supposed to develop an emotional attachment to a protocol, but HyperLiquid was different for me. Jeff built something the market desperately needed. He dragged structural fairness into the spotlight and paved the way for a better conversation. He and the HL team deserve their chapter in crypto’s history books. I personally hope they continue to write new ones.
But if you’ve followed me for any length of time, you also know I’m an idealist - maybe to a fault - and I can’t turn off the portion of my brain that not only can see things as they currently are but continues to believe in what they should be.
10/10 ripped the mask off the industry for the new folks. Or for those who’ve been around long enough, it simply reminded us how fragile and easily manipulated this ecosystem still is. The fact that one centralized exchange can trigger a global liquidation cascade and force temporary price dislocations across every protocol? That’s not a “black swan.” That’s a design flaw.
Here’s a short recap:
Binance relied on its own oracle - which depegged a stablecoin.
That started a smaller, but manageable, liquidation chain.
The real chaos began when their API mysteriously went offline.
Market makers, who operate largely delta-neutral, suddenly couldn’t hedge on their primary venue.
With hedging impossible, they pulled quotes across CEXs and DEXs.
With no liquidity present, price falls off a cliff.
And across the industry?
Victory laps.
“Zero bad debt!”
“Liquidations processed flawlessly!”
Great. The protocol didn’t die.
But users did.
Protecting the protocol IS important - obviously.
But it is not the same thing as protecting traders.
If we want broader adoption, if we want legitimacy, if we want crypto to grow without getting handcuffed by regulators, we have to start building real consumer protection into our systems.
TradFi has circuit breakers, obligations for MMs, structural guardrails. Crypto has...hope. And an instruction manual that says, “Good luck out there!”
So why am I leaving HyperLiquid?
Because I choose to back teams who are actively trying to solve these design flaws, not merely observe them.
I’ve spoken with Jeff and another member of the Core 11. They don’t appear to see this as part of the roadmap right now. That’s their choice and I respect it.
And to be clear - nobody has a perfect fix. There is no silver bullet. What matters to me is who’s walking toward solutions rather than ignoring the problem.
We lost people on 10/10.
Real lives were ended.
Real families were destroyed.
Over...a design flaw allowing one entity to control the world?
Crypto doesn’t get to just sweep that under the rug.
So the question becomes:
Who’s actually building protections that might prevent the next Binance-induced disaster?
On Solana, I’ve only found one.
Drift’s liquidation protection isn’t magic. It’s not flawless. But it exists - and more importantly, it worked.
It checks:
“Is the oracle price diverging by more than 50% from the 5-minute TWAP?”
If yes it simply puts a temporary halt on liquidations.
That single line of logic saved a lot of people. Scam wicks get filtered. The insurance fund catches the edge cases. It’s not some grand philosophical overhaul - it’s simply a meaningful step toward sanity.
I’m not as brilliant as Jeff. I don’t pretend to know the best way to solve this at scale. But I am a customer - and customers vote with their dollars.
The industry keeps repeating, “Protecting the protocol is protecting the trader.”
But that’s not the full picture.
A car isn’t complete without a driver. Both are equally important to the beautiful symbiosis that exists.
This is a heartbreaking post to write.
This isn’t a Drift advertisement.
It feels more like a gut-wrenching breakup with a first love - not because the love disappeared, but because you finally recognize that you’re growing in different directions.
HL will always be a part of my story. It’ll stay on my shortlist whenever people ask where to trade. But it’s time for me to move forward - toward my values, toward my ideals - and to say to Jeff and the team, with real appreciation: we’ll always have Paris.

❤️❤️❤️ I’m losing my mind over this drop 🤯🔥 Been waiting for this collection like crazy, vibes are insane, and the artist? Absolute legend. Can’t wait, I’m all in on this one 🚀🫡
The Pi Network idea is complete nonsense. Why are you pushing this idea when a huge part of the community that has been mining these coins for several years simply cannot pass KYC, their accounts are being frozen, and a massive number of people — I know this and can provide all the proofs if needed? Why are you pushing this idea?

I can’t disagree. Since 2020, I’ve been reading DK and I deeply bow in gratitude for all the knowledge I’ve gained through his tweets. Thank you, my man!
This is partially a view stolen from Don Alt, but I am more and more convinced crypto treasury companies will go completely bonkers and one of them failing will mark the top of this cycle.
