$QUBIC is getting left behind while AI coins are ripping. $TAO is up ~23% in 7 days. $FET is up ~40%. QUBIC? Flat to down. So why isn't the market rewarding it? The first reason is simple: Liquidity. QUBIC is doing roughly $0.7–1M in daily volume, while capital in a risk-on market naturally flows into deeper, more liquid names first. With thin order books, even modest selling can keep the price suppressed. Then there's the second halving. Epoch 227 activated around August 19, increasing the burn-rate ceiling from 55% to 77.5%. Raw weekly emissions remain around 1T QUBIC, but effective net new supply can fall from roughly 450B to ~225B per week. That's structurally bullish. But unlike Bitcoin's halving, there's no instant scarcity narrative for retail to chase. It's a gradual supply squeeze. And that's the bigger problem right now: narrative timing. TAO and FET are riding a huge AI narrative while QUBIC's story is much more technical. Useful Proof-of-Work. Neuraxon AI. Aigarth. Decentralized compute. Open scientific research. All interesting. But they don't create the same immediate FOMO as a major AI token breakout. There are also lingering overhangs. The 2025 Monero hashrate controversy still affects perception, while a July GitHub security incident added more noise despite no protocol or fund loss and being fully remediated. And QUBIC isn't truly deflationary yet. Around 141–142T tokens remain in circulation, and supply can still grow until network usage generates enough burns to overtake emissions. The frustrating part? The fundamentals haven't stopped moving. Outsourced Computations is live. BPP-9000 is improving mining. AEON Pay is expanding QUBIC spending. Alchemy Pay has opened fiat on-ramps across 173 countries. And the AI side is producing measurable results. Four Neuraxon papers were accepted at international conferences this year, while ARC-AGI-3 reached a 0.25 score using CPUs alone. That's not nothing. The question is whether any of it translates into actual demand. Because if the broader altseason continues and capital eventually rotates into lower-liquidity AI names, QUBIC could finally get its beta catch-up. The second halving has already tightened the supply side. The infrastructure is expanding. The AI research is progressing. But until usage and liquidity follow, the market can keep ignoring it. QUBIC isn't necessarily broken. It's just early, illiquid, and currently out of sync with the narrative. And that's exactly why the next few months could matter.

After exploring China more as an American it’s pretty apparent why the US is getting mogged. 1.Drugs. Drugs are a pure negative on society and I haven’t realized the impact until now. It makes sense why the Chinese don’t have “homeless”. Homeless to Americans mean people lazing around on the streets, often high. In China, there are a ton of people below the poverty line, but they are all doing something. Swarming around hotel lobby entrances selling umbrellas, back to back fruit sellers, etc. They weren’t given the option to turn to drugs that’ll ruin their life. 2.Politics induced polarization In the US, the two political parties are incentivized to brainwash voters with their talking points. Polarizing takes will always perform better than neutral ones due to how the internet engages with content. That is why I start most of my tweets with some form of ragebait if I want it to gain traction. “As an American”. The dangerous thing about political rage bait is that they don’t need to be lies, it’s so easy to invoke certain reactions by presenting truths in a certain way. For example, the datacenter water argument. One side has clearly been fed propaganda on how data centers are destroying people’s lives with their water consumption and environmental impact. The other side has been fed propaganda about the water usage numbers compared to golf courses and how data centers don’t use that much water. As a result, you have one half of the country in protest and the other half thinking the first half’s retarded. If only presented with one truth, both parties would reach the conclusion to simply focus on making better data centers in a way that doesn’t disrupt people’s lives. 3.Short term profit incentives When politicians are elected for 4 year terms, they gain absolutely nothing by investing in a long term plan that takes 20 years to pan out. Thats not going to get them re-elected. They get re-elected by fucking over the economy for short term glowups during their 4 years. The Chinese can implement public infrastructure projects that span decades. They’ve been doing that shit since the Great Wall. Nowadays it’s resulted in high speed trains and citywide subway systems. 4.Anti-tech mindset 50 years ago the United States was the world’s leader and China was a shithole. The Americans did not see much improvement in their lifestyle with the rise of tech. Meanwhile China was transformed in a large part due to the technological advancements over the years. Along with nostalgia and political talking points, it is not a surprise that many in the US are against tech advancements. This was made very clear with AI. Almost everyone in the US opposes it, they see it as massive corporations taking advantage of the people and milking them for profits with the result with their own work. Which is true. Meanwhile the Chinese understands that advancements in technology makes everyone’s lives better. The models are the culmination of everyone’s work and should be opensourced. 5.Illogical empathy Due to diversity and polarization incentives, society’s been broken down into many layers of sub identities. Race wars, gender wars, class wars, sexual orientation wars, etc etc. It’s resulted in a massive web of what is considered morally correct within your own group of people, at the risk of alienation if you break ranks. For example, if you buy a Tesla in the US you are against trans people. Meanwhile, the majority of cars I’ve seen in China is electric. The Chinese have no qualms about EV adoption, it’s quieter, reduces smog, and environmentally friendly. Pure net positive for the government to subsidize various EV manufacturers so the cost is lower on the consumers, and the consumers were happy to make the switch as the result. Win win. ——- TLDR Beijing/Chongqing is hard gapping NY/SF rn and we need to pull our shit together.

The greatest AI skill you can learn right now is Reverse Prompting It’s simple: ChatGPT5.6, Fable, and Grok 4.5 are now smarter than humans. That means you need to have your agent prompting YOU more than you prompt it You have your AI ask YOU questions to see what it can do for you Makes every AI agent you use so much more powerful An exercise you can do right now: Open up any AI/OpenClaw/Hermes. Brain dump everything about yourself and your career/goals/ambitions. Then use this reverse prompt: "Based on what you know about me and my goals, what is more information I can provide to you in order for you to be able to help me achieve my goals faster and take as much off my plate as possible" Then once you enter that, prompt this: "What tasks can you do for me right now to get us closer to our ambitions and goals?" Guarantee you come up with 100x more things to do with your AI than you thought of before The more questions you ask your AI, the more you'll learn and the more you'll get done. You don’t prompt. You give information, then allow your agent to guide you to somewhere interesting. This is how you use AI in 2026

PRO-BITCOIN SENATOR BERNIE MORENO TO FAUCI: “Who the f*ck do you think you are?”

We removed ~80% of the Claude Code system prompt for our newest models, this is what we've learned about writing system prompts, skills and Claude.MDs for them.

David Friedberg: The Socialists Are Coming for Your Private Property Rights At a recent hearing held by NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani, a speaker equated evictions with violence. @friedberg says this demonization of landlords and the good/evil moralistic framing are signals that socialists are trying to erode private property rights in America. “In 1787, John Quincy Adams had a comment, ‘The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the laws of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence.’ Private property rights are the foundations of liberty in America. Because if you think about where everyone that came to America was coming from, there were these tyrannical governments where some overlord or some cabal could decide at any point to take the things that you have. You had no private property rights as an individual. And it was that stasis that drove so many to come to the United States and say, ‘We want a place where individuals, one person, can say, I own something, and no one can take it from me.’ This idea that you can then claim acts of violence, that you can then claim circumstances of extraordinary extravagant wealth, and say to that individual, ‘I now have a right, the government now has a right to take your private property,’ ultimately leads to this tyrannical form. And it starts out as being anarchic, and remember, anarchy is a temporary state. It's always in between one state and another. All anarchies end up in tyranny, so anarchy and tyranny are one in the same. And fundamentally, what's going on with these socialist principles is that, ‘We are taking your private property, and you no longer have rights on your private property. We now will have the right to come in and take your property and control it and take it from you.’ And it always starts with this framing of moralistic intent. ‘We are good, you are bad for the following reasons. You have committed violence against the people that live in your building.’ So the first framing is that the private property owner is evil, and that the private property owner has committed an act of injustice against those who don't have the private property. And that is the justification for taking away their private property rights. And it is the beginning of this transition towards a tyrannical system, which will ultimately be what I call this kind of Great American Politburo or whatever socialist framework gets set up by the cabal of the socialists and what they're trying to put together. So all of these little acts, while seeming ridiculous, and insane, and inappropriate, in aggregate are the same thing: They're a transition away from private property rights, which is the foundation of the United States of America. That's why I think we should all be so shocked. And to John Quincy Adams' point, we need to vehemently defend those rights. As soon as those rights start to slip away, even in the tiniest way, it is a cascading effect, and everything will become tyrannical, and it will be very ugly in the United States of America.”

For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter. AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country. Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty. The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models. images.nvidia.com/pdf/Open-W…

So let me get this straight.... 1. Agents are about to outnumber humans on the internet, so most of the traffic, transactions, and conversations online will soon be machines talking to other machines while we sleep. 2. Superintelligence exists now, and for $20/mo you pretty much get it all. 3. Cloud agents allow you to run a business 24/7 and from literally a phone while you're waiting to order a latte. 4. Voice AI is wide open. This industry has barely changed since the 90s. Infinite opportunities. Voice AI is finally getting good enough. 5. Mobile apps are interesting again for the first time in 10 years, because an AI-first app that thinks and acts on its own is a different species than the passive ones in the store today. There are kids doing $100k/MRR. 6. It's the golden age of open source. The models you download off Hugging Face for free and own forever are landing within months of the ones behind paywalls, so the smartest thing on earth can't be throttled, priced up, or shut off by a company having a bad quarter. 7. The keyboard is on its way out. We spent 40 years learning to type fast, and it's about to feel like handwriting, because soon you just talk and the computer goes and does it. 8. Every company is about to hire agents with their own logins, their own inboxes, their own track records, and a shadow economy is forming where agents pay, hire, and vouch for other agents. 9. Software stopped being something you buy and became something you rent by the hour. The whole industry is repricing from $50 a seat to thousands per outcome. Tons of opportunity. 10. Robots are about to have the moment software agents just had. The intelligence got solved. Now it's dropping into machines with arms and legs, and the people who can wire AI into hardware are about to be the most fought-over hires on earth. 11. The 10-person startup can now out-ship the 500-person company, and everyone can feel it happening. 12. Every white-collar task is getting a "do it for me" button, and most people haven't pressed it yet. 13. Data you've been sitting on for years is suddenly worth something, because now an agent can actually use it. 14. Language stopped being a barrier. Real-time translation that actually works means the next huge consumer app might get built for a market you can't even read, by someone you'll never meet. 15. Every SOP is turning into a product. The way a business does one thing, written down as a markdown file an agent can run, is now something you can sell. Knowledge that used to live in someone's head became downloadable. 16. The moat moved from what you know to how well your business is written down. The company an agent can actually run wins, so being legible beats being big. 17. Since agents will get scammed by other agents, a whole trust layer has to get built. The Yelp for agents. The escrow for machines. Wide open. 18. You keep the whole thing now. A business that needed 50 people to hit $10M needs 3 and some agents, so instead of splitting it 200 ways with investors, it's just yours. 19. Search engines minted a generation of millionaires and billionaires. LLM search is about to do it all over again. Billions of eyeballs are moving off Google and onto ChatGPT, so being the answer inside the models is the new front page. 20. The margins are stupid. You charge someone what they'd pay a human, and it costs you a few bucks in tokens. That gap used to go to payroll. Now it goes to you. Any one of these would DEFINE a decade on its own. We got ALL of them at once, stacked on top of each other in the same 18 months. It's a magical time to be building. You don't need to overthink it. Build.

Around this time last year, for the first time in years, I was feeling lost. I was bleeding money in crypto, my business was stalling, and content was burning me out. As a last-ditch effort, I tried a Claude prompt I found online (with zero expectations). The result absolutely shocked me and changed my entire life/business trajectory. Since using it, I've given it to friends and family, and ALL of them who used it said it was eye-opening. One of the most valuable prompts I could ever give you. Copy & paste into your LLM.

Anthropic accidentally leaked their entire source code yesterday. What happened next is one of the most insane stories in tech history. > Anthropic pushed a software update for Claude Code at 4AM. > A debugging file was accidentally bundled inside it. > That file contained 512,000 lines of their proprietary source code. > A researcher named Chaofan Shou spotted it within minutes and posted the download link on X. > 21 million people have seen the thread. > The entire codebase was downloaded, copied and mirrored across GitHub before Anthropic's team had even woken up. > Anthropic pulled the package and started firing DMCA takedowns at every repo hosting it. > That's when a Korean developer named Sigrid Jin woke up at 4AM to his phone blowing up. > He is the most active Claude Code user in the world with the Wall Street Journal reporting he personally used 25 billion tokens last year. > His girlfriend was worried he'd get sued just for having the code on his machine. > So he did what any engineer would do. > He rewrote the entire thing in Python from scratch before sunrise. > Called it claw-code and Pushed it to GitHub. > A Python rewrite is a new creative work. DMCA can't touch it. > The repo hit 30,000 stars faster than any repository in GitHub history. > He wasn't satisfied. He started rewriting it again in Rust. > It now has 49,000 stars and 56,000 forks. > Someone mirrored the original to a decentralised platform with one message, "will never be taken down." > The code is now permanent. Anthropic cannot get it back. Anthropic built a system called Undercover Mode specifically to stop Claude from leaking internal secrets. Then they leaked their own source code themselves. You cannot make this up.

realizing there was no income tax in the united states for the first 137 years of its existence. let that sink in. the country was built, industrialized, and became the most powerful nation on earth without taking a single dollar from your paycheck then in 1913 the federal reserve act was secretly signed on jekyll island during christmas while most of congress was home with their families. and just like that a private central bank owned by foreign interests took control of america’s money supply the country was built on patriotism and productivity. but its future was stolen through usury by rothschild bankers who turned every american citizen into a debt slave from birth you work from january to april just to pay the government. money that gets sent overseas, funds wars you didn’t ask for, and lines the pockets of people who don’t care if you live or die 137 years with no income tax and the country thrived. but sure tell me again how the system is working

You shouldn't trade altcoins on 100x leverage. It's risky! Crypto Bros:

🇨🇳 China just released footage of their robot wolves running simulated street battles with micro-missiles and grenade launchers. Black Mirror called, they want their props back.

We are so fvcked...

Human population density around the world. 📽: Tyler Morgan-Wall

wtf did i just read NATO is equipping live cockroaches with AI models to spy on enemies, steering their movement with electric shocks to the nervous system! the tech is fucking insane: - each cockroach is wired with cameras, microphones and microscopic AI chips that process data locally. - swarm algorithms coordinate MULTIPLE cockroaches at once - these cyborg cockroaches are sent on military scouting missions moving through tight spaces, rubble undetected. - german military has already paid for and deployed these AI cockroaches i’ve heard of ai drones but never ai-powered fucking combat cockroaches lmaoo

The creator of ChatGPT is named "Altman," as in "alternative to human" and he leads OpenAI, which is completely closed. His main opponent is the company Anthropic, meaning "human-centered" is led by "Amodei," as in "loves gods". Then there's "Gemini," meaning "two-faced," from a company that said that it will do no evil. Brilliant work as always Kojima!
