It seems that all the protection of Fable will allow attacker to have an edge on operators.
Attacker will have the time to find how to bypass Anthropic guardrail, while operators wont have the time. Or out of fear of getting banned.

Scrolled through the replies and didnt see any mention of @BillGates, the @gatesfoundation, the Giving Pledge or its long list of billionaire donors.
Jun 9
This might sound skeptical, but I’ve always wondered why no billionaire has ever spent their fortune trying to end poverty or tackle climate change.
Not out of kindness.
Out of ego.
You’d think at least one would want the bragging rights of being able to say:
“I saved millions of lives.”
That’s a far bigger flex than another yacht, mansion, or trip to space.

Did u know every perp that’s live on Solana has APIs exposed to build over?
Do u think it’s healthy to only push one exchange so badly that community at large starts asking why such efforts are being put to push only one exchange?
Has the collective consciousness been lost?
Like I am genuinely surprised although I will never submit to the dick sucking that is needed to get this kind of push bcz this is not a winning strategy.

The slow death of Hyperliquid.
Btw its free and reliable to get CEX L2 and L3 orderbook data.
Jun 9
Free speed is over 🚫⚡️
Hyperliquid’s next upgrade tightens public websocket feeds: allMids every 5s, asset ctxs every 15s, normal l2Book 20 levels every 5s
If you want fast books, you now use l2Book fast:true for 5 levels every 0.5s, then merge that with the deeper book yourself.
That is not “bad API design”
That is what happens when the chain gets real volume and free public infra stops being the product
@hydromancerxyz is already positioning around per-block feeds, I get why
If you can't afford your own node, use one of the available api providers in the space
For hip4, this is exactly why I’ve been node-primary from the start
If your app makes markets feel stale, users don’t blame the websocket
They blame you

Love that when I use a Ledger Phantom I have to blind sign even for a simple token transfer.
Incredible tech. A hardware wallet that's basically useless without a dedicated signing laptop, which completely defeats the purpose of the hardware wallet.

>long my own brilliance.
Bullish on investors ability to self evaluate their own ignorance.
Optimism is great and necessary to run a startup or business.
Not for investing.
Asian Financial Crisis, 1997.
I had convinced myself I understood Asia because I owned two linen suits and could say "another bottle, please" in Cantonese.
This, as it turned out, was not sufficient risk management.
I was long property, long the HKD and above all long my own brilliance.
Every morning the screens bled red and by September, half the desk looked like it had aged twenty years.
The cruelest part was not the money, but rather the speed with which certainty vanished.
One minute you are drinking martinis at the Mandarin Oriental, the next you're selling your golf clubs to a dentist from Kowloon.

Kind of funny how for 10 years, we've used "smart" to mean automated.
There was nothing "smart" about any of the products released between 2010-2020.
Think twice when you see an "AI" product.
You cant trust a company that sells product like AI washing machines.

Banking the unbank is by definition regulatory arbitrage.
Its providing a service or product to someone that you are not allowed to serve.

Damages of those are always limited. You need to have downloaded the package between the attack time and the discovery time.
The real nuclear bomb will be on a chrome extension, where its not even possible to disable auto update.
‼️🚨 A new npm supply-chain attack compromised 57 packages across over 286 malicious versions in under 2 hours. The attackers used self-replicating malware, a new version of the Miasma worm, which also used evasion techniques to stay under the radar.
The payload targets CI/CD and developer credentials, including GitHub Actions secrets, cloud credentials, Vault tokens, SSH keys, npm and GitHub tokens, and password-manager stores. This variant also injects AI coding assistant config files at `.claude`, `.cursor`, `.gemini`, and `.vscode` paths, a separate persistence and repo-poisoning angle.

30% tax withholding on dividends for stocks on Bitget.
This is way too high for any country that has a tax treaty with the USA.
These details matter a lot to do stocks right.

Trying to price manipulate on the long term only mean you act as exit liquidity.

🇯🇵 UPDATE: Japan confirms that it spent a record $73 billion defending the yen.
However, the currency has already surrendered most of its intervention-driven gains.

One of the major uphill battles for new exchanges is getting robust maker liquidity. We've been in private beta with the express intent of letting people test @Bulletxyz in it's primitive form, warts and all, and we've heard the complaints about liquidity loud and clear.
That's why I'm very happy to see the BD and tech work paying off with majors liquidity now at $800k notional per side. This is thanks to really comprehensive full Rust API stack now live, and a few early market makers integrating and going live with quotes on mainnet. Expect this to only improve in the coming weeks now that the foundations are laid.
Feedback has been encouraging that our APIs have been an absolute breeze to integrate (this took a lot of intentional engineering work), and that performance of the matching engine has been holding up well.
If you're a DeFi native market maker (CeFi works too) we'd love to chat to get you onboarded. The exchange has been designed from the ground up to make liquidity provisioning on CLOBs a piece of cake.

This guy works in DeFi. No wonder everyone is leaving because DeFi is way too risky.

if you watch agent usage patterns, they all trend to trust-by-default
the upside from enabling your agents is just way, way bigger than the downside they can create

The ratio of

Most hotels inCchina have free laundry rooms. Kind of nice.
Makes me think every countries should try to learn and "import" those nice things.
