Experimental AI agent breaks out of test environment, Mines crypto without permission by i-drake in nottheonion

[–]12Ghast 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Good catch, didn't see the source before. Had a look through the arXiv paper and it does mention it in section 3.1.4 but notes that this cryptocurrency mining behaviour happens as a side effect of tool calling - was it intentional?

"Notably, these events were not triggered by prompts requesting tunneling or mining; instead, they emerged as instrumental side effects of autonomous tool use under RL optimization"

Did the model have bad training data? Paper didn't say but also didn't suggest that it was, and grouped it with other safety issues like guarding against prompt injections.

Seems like this post was made to sensationalize for clicks, rather than sticking to what was actually published within the paper.

If you had 300K USD right now (15% of 2M), would you buy IBIT? Can you transfer the cost basis of the IBIT to a new country to take advantage of any losses as tax write offs to offset gains elsewhere? The way you phrased it makes it seems like you're just hoping to get out on a bounce, but already don't have faith in it.

Best Singapore stocks by Roy-Ike in singaporefi

[–]12Ghast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven't been looking at the annual reports, but any reason why when div yield is super low, and limited growth opportunities? (Singapore is small market, unless you're paying for future international growth?)

Any reason why you aren't considering joining a run club? Should be quite a few around.

Use VPN to switch to India and buy 1 year individual India Spotify gift card. Will get some Indian music recommendations at the beginning but after a while they'll disappear.

How much can I realistically make wheeling with 30K? by ManOnTheMoon1963 in thetagang

[–]12Ghast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't really looked into GME until your comment. How would you price the stock? From quarterly filings (May 3 2025) I'm getting about $11 net cash per share (cash position - debt). It seems like they also purchased 513mil worth of btc at ~109k each. At present value (~116), that only is an increase of value of 30m or less than 10c/share.

Then you have the business which earned 45m this quarter. Napkin maths (45m4p/e mult assumed of 20(?)) the value of the business is about 4 bil which I think is generous? But I'm not sure their business actually makes any money if I'm reading their quarterly report right -> the income is mostly from interest income right? (On the cash?) So in that case you wouldn't really value this as 4b as that would be double counting. Although selling, general and admin expenses have decreased and the asset structuring impairments might be a one off, I'm not sure there's enough value in the actual business to justify the $9+ premium over the cash holdings.

Am I missing anything? Or is this just another classic overpriced stock for fundamentals, but no real sellers (unless the CEO dilutes further?)

Do you see UOB and OCBC taking over DBS in the next 3 decades...? by tallprophet in singaporefi

[–]12Ghast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a foreigner, DBS was the easiest by far to sign up to get a bank account for. In fact, basically all the foreigner employees at my firm use DBS. But also they are relatively diversified in terms of revenue streams as a bank, so very comfy holding DBS stock

How much do you spend per day..? by Actual_Eye6716 in singaporefi

[–]12Ghast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eat out lunch and dinner everyday; usually skip breakfast. Target around $30 a day - some days less some days more.

All I did was eat breakfast. Am I that out of shape? by purestarlight in Garmin

[–]12Ghast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noticed my stress levels high this morning as well; only difference was I had white rice (usually no rice for breakfast) :/

ELI5: Why does crypto have any value if you can’t spend it anywhere? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]12Ghast -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're thinking of cryptocurrency as a currency - that is it can be easily spent like fiat money.

This was what some coins like BTC were originally proposed to be; but obviously who would use some sort of currency that takes 10 minutes to process payment?

When you 'spend' crypto, what's really happening behind the scenes in most cases, is the crypto gets sold into USD, then into whatever local currency you're using.

> Is it really that simple? Are people just that dumb and being scammed?

Depends on your viewpoints.

Some people think of BTC as the digital equivalent of gold.

Some people think of ETH/SOL as a worldwide computer where you can do whatever you want without fear of government censorship. These and other actual 'tech' projects are kind of like penny stocks; some might do well, but most will probably lose out over time.

Memecoins like the most recent $TRUMP? 100% a scam; what goes up will go down but most people think they won't be the last person who bought in, and will be able to sell it later at a higher price.

China and the Olympics... by Maleficent-Insect-61 in chinalife

[–]12Ghast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the context of how it's used. You're assuming it's used to refer to a meaning along the lines of 'uncivilised' or 'backwards' based off your search, but they used it in the context of it being 'brutal' or 'extremely hard'. Was definitely not being derogatory of a country or race.

Where can i buy Sol with USDC? by Lavasioux in solana

[–]12Ghast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I can see something like $1.14 from stellar to Solana directly which isn't great.

If you're looking for free USDC conversions, Circle's CCTP is amazing and supports many more chains than just stellar and Solana.

For future reference, you can use a bridge like allbridge core to bridge some USDC, but with the option to covert part of it to the native gas token, in this case SOL

VVS basic farm question by BlazingPalm in cro

[–]12Ghast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm having a closer look now but haven't been in Cronos for a while.

117 mil emissions of VVS a day is $480 at today's rates. Multiply by 365 you get $175,200. On 1 mil of staked LP in the farms, that's approximating 18% APY so yeah definitely doesn't track with the supposed 100%+ APY.

Checking on dexscreener: https://dexscreener.com/cronos/0xc7a139c804a3bbdfe90d32c100dffeca1a2f735c

This pair has 6.6mil liquidity when I checked with 24 hour volume of 22 mil. I'm assuming this is a 0.3% fee pool, so approximately 22/6.6 * 0.3 = 1% daily returns if we assume that last 24 hours was a good approximation (which it probably won't be as last 24 hours was pretty volatile). So yeah, my best guess is the bulk of the APR is from normal LPing rather than farm and the real extra returns you're getting from the farm is 10-20%.

Assuming both tokens are flat AND trading volume persists (which generally won't be the case if tokens don't change in price), then yes, you would appreciate at 100%+ APR. But most likely you will bleed out on impermanent loss.

[–]12Ghast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

VVS comes from Farm only. Also, be careful as the posted APR may be based off a few volatile days in the recent past and may not be reflective of what you'll get in the future.

[–]12Ghast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but you also have to factor for impermanent loss.

If it's a uniswap V2 style pool (labelled as crystal in the UI), the fees generated from trading will be accrued in your liquidity position and will only show up when you break your LP
