late night thought:
what if one of the frontier labs has already seen an agent do something internally that genuinely scared them?
not saying anything actually escaped, there’s zero evidence of that. but it does make me wonder why the people closest to frontier AI keep getting louder about safeguards, regulation, and making sure we’re ready before it’s “too late".
maybe they’ve just seen enough to realize the margin for error is way smaller than the rest of us think.
or maybe i just need to go to sleep

we’re proud to welcome @arbital_xyz to Superteam Black
built by @pangestu_karon, @0xstevezilla and @0xvincent_eth, Arbital brings memes, stocks, perps, and automated strategies like market making into one trading terminal.
in just 7 months, 2,700 traders have already moved $1.35B+ through the platform, with ~$435M in volume over the last month alone.
now part of Y Combinator’s S26 batch, the team is going after a much bigger goal: making onchain trading simple enough for the next wave of global retail traders.

Today, we’re launching Arbital.
Trade memes. Trade stocks. Trade perps. Market make.
All in one place.
A memecoin today. An AI stock tomorrow. A Korean or Chinese stock the day after.
The next big trade can come from anywhere.
But finding trade ideas and trading them still happens across different apps.
We built Arbital to change that.
Discover trades, execute across markets, and run automated strategies.
In our first 7 months:
- $1.35B+ traded
- 2,700 traders
- $435M/month in volume
- $41M ATH daily volume
And we’re just getting started.
Trade anything, anywhere.

if your sole goal is to farm @perpltrade and the $1M monad:native, I hear that @arbital_xyz has the lowest cost per million (cpm) rn
until perpl have builder codes (or similar), they are at a 4x disadvantage to HL, ondo and other builder fee DEXs for tread S1.5 (assuming the same multipliers from S1), so you probably wouldn't miss many tread points
> arbital cpm on perpl BTC is ~$180-270, compared to $450 on tread mid+1 so far
I think mpoints + perpl points + (some) tread S1.5 points still mean that $450cpm on tread is +EV, but just the mpoints mean that the arbital cpm is +EV
aside: in general, I expect arbital to be cheaper on builder fee DEXs because their builder fee is only 1bp, which requires tier 5 (>$50M 14D vol) on tread
> I'm also hearing rumours that some big announcements are afoot that would make arbital in and of itself worth farming, as required.

introducing our very first @arbital_xyz competition with @dango 🍡
the leaderboard is still wide open and the prize pool is far from fully unlocked
volume is lower than expected because most people are running commodities for the 100% points boost, commodity pairs have slower fill rates compared to major crypto pairs like BTC and ETH which have 50% boost ONLY ON @arbital_xyz right now
if you want to climb the leaderboard faster, major pairs will get you there quicker
pro tip: you can connect more than one Dango account to Arbital or run the MM bot on sub-accounts simultaneously. all volume gets accumulated into your main account so it adds up fast
Dango Grand Prix is here 🏁
Trade using Arbital on @dango and earn up to $2,650 in cash rewards
-> 50% point boost on all pairs, ONLY on Arbital
-> 100% point boost on all Commodities pairs
-> $2,650 cash reward pool up for grabs
Event runs June 4, 12PM UTC to June 10, 12PM UTC

Back when @0xstevezilla reached out to build automated MM strategies, I was instantly hooked.
Especially with the wave of Perp DEXs that popped up post @HyperliquidX.
The idea is simple: @arbital_xyz abstracts the gnarly infrastructure, low-latency execution, inventory risk engines, OMS, into a configurable trade engine that runs on-chain or via DEX-native APIs.
In short, it democratizes professional-grade, maker-only liquidity strategies that used to be reserved for quant desks like Wintermute, now packaged for retail as a simple, configurable bot.
As a user, you can:
- Generate trading volume with neutral bias
- Capture bid-ask spreads
- Earn maker rebates
- Farm ecosystem points/incentives across Perp DEXs
The key difference: this isn’t a classic cross-exchange arb bot or a directional trader. It’s purely a maker-only liquidity provider, sitting in the order book, earning by posting tight quotes via:
- A TWAP-style passive market maker
- Continuously places limit buys just below mid and limit sells just above, refreshing every few seconds
- A “buy low, sell high” loop that captures spread + maker rebates while staying non-directional to limit inventory risk
At the time of writing, Arbital supports:
- Hyperliquid + HIP-3 FE → @tradexyz | @ventuals | @felixprotocol | @hyenatrade | @Kinetiq_xyz / @Markets_xyz
- @grvt_io
- @DecibelTrade
- @dango
- @tradehotstuff
- @pacifica_fi
- @extendedapp
- @hibachi_xyz
- @Dreamcash
They’ve already processed $750M in cumulative trading volume, and growing fast. And this rebrand isn’t just a UI refresh, under the hood, the engine is refined.
From my own experience, I’ve often seen profitability within hours, because maker rebates + spread frequently outweigh minor inventory drift.
If you’re already farming Dango, HIP-3 FE, Decibel, or any of the listed perp DEXes, Arbital is currently the highest-conviction way to turn idle capital into maker rebates + multiplied points with minimal active management.
As always: NFA + DYOR

8700% funding tells you exactly what the demand side feels and exactly what the supply side isn't doing, the pricing on both sides is wildly imbalanced thoo
You can literally buy Anthropic on Solana without having to pay 8,700% in funding
Yes, it is currently higher than on Hyperliquid but the funding will eat your positions away very quickly
There is no better place for pre-IPO stocks than on Solana
