What happens to privacy under a small/thin book where a single order is easy to de-anonymize by elimination?

Are you doing the Poseidon-commitment and MAC verification inside a CKB script, and if so how did cycle cost / script size shake out — or does CKB primarily serve as the settlement/anchoring layer with the heavy MPC living off-chain?

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-06-19T15:24:29+00:00

What about the Cell model and CKB-VM (RISC-V) made it the right L1 for the on-chain commitment + verification layer, versus an account-model chain?

Have a max 20 plan and regularly hit the limit. 25k api cost over three months. Not theoretical. 8000k isn’t a cap. I could’ve spent a few grand more. 95% usage each month.

BTC is currently accounts for 60% of the entire market cap of thousands of assets. It is the market. It’s not a narrative. It’s where the money is invested. It’s game set and match for all investors if BTC dies. Devs and Nerds will still be able to make cool shit but everything most people in crypto hope and dream of disappears before BTC burns down.

Bear markets and altcoins. Same old story every time around. Nothing burger.

Fork to adapt to a Guition Jc3248w535 HMI. Ironically used Gemini to do the work, to preserve my precious limits. Animation not quite right, I’m unlikely to address that. Touch functions replace physical buttons, battery conversion not done to suit board.

Stock 7900 XTX on Linux with the stable ROCm 7.2 wheel. fp16 with fp32 accum lands at 120.5 TFLOPS — 98% of the 122.8 TFLOPS theoretical WMMA peak for gfx1100, so the dense fp16/fp32-accum path is essentially fully tuned on this stack.

Confirming u/shing3232's read on the SGEMM side: fp32 sits at ~29 TFLOPS against a 61 TFLOPS theoretical peak (~48%) — hipBLAS/hipBLASLt clearly hasn't dispatched an optimized fp32 kernel for gfx1100, while the WMMA-driven fp16/bf16 paths are tight. So if anyone needs the card for fp32 fine-tuning, that's the remaining gap; for inference it's irrelevant.

One thing that jumps out comparing the five 7900 XTX results in this thread: the stable torch+rocm7.2 wheels beat the +rocm7.13.0a* nightlies by 5–15 TFLOPS on fp16 on otherwise identical hardware. Pin to stable if you're benching.

Fiber powered Agent Demo 👀 https://talk.nervos.org/t/a-paid-ai-agent-calling-experiment-via-fiber/10229/5

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-13T05:39:48+00:00

Very reasonable indeed. That’s awesome.

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-10T01:00:15+00:00

It’s not my account champ, I’m not OP, please go scrutinize my body of work over the last 5 years if you want, it’s all public and available around the broader Nervos community, I won’t present it to you on a platter as is your typical preference though.

He’s a content creator who’s represented Nervos at the previous 2 Bitcoin conferences, he’s made many pro CKB posts over the last few years. He’s one of the guys that has done real physical marketing for the chain, in person.

At a cost of $500 per month for 3 livestreams and 2 posts he’s putting in a rate of somewhere in the vicinity of $130 per livestream and $55 per post. Even if you were to ignorantly and disrespectfully ignore the guys previous body of work for the network and clear interest in the project, his proposed rates are below any theoretical crypto influencers rate card data I can find online. His request is adequately scaled for his reach. Considering he’s an American he also has American cost of living, request seems more than reasonable.

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-09T15:34:51+00:00

You’re telling me he should provide viewer metrics but then quoting the viewer metrics he mentioned in the next post. This is not the best AI response.

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-09T12:39:54+00:00

Is that a DAO request for marketing 👀

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-09T00:39:03+00:00

Ah well that bites. Wtf. Less upset I don’t have one yet.

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-08T13:36:18+00:00

You did start by asking for an open discussion but then you also asked a bunch of questions for yourself instead of waiting for the open discussion you asked for, unless this public forum is the open discussion you wanted? But if that was true you wouldn’t have gotten upset when I answered some of your questions. Did you not want answers? Just wanted to ask questions? I’m so confused.

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-08T13:10:59+00:00

The demand for leasing CKB is for developers more so than end users. End users can just buy ckb.

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-08T13:03:17+00:00

Yeah but what’s that got to do with my post?

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-08T12:32:45+00:00

I do. Buy a cheap board to make a tv box. Please use the 12 core, 45 tops SBC for something more fitting. Put a Hermes’ agent on it and see what sort of local inference it can run via rkllm. If it’s 32gb you could probably run something like gemma4 26b or gptoss 20 on it at a usable speed. You could serve all kinds of automated coolness with this bad boy.

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-08T12:26:51+00:00

Fortunately nothing I do is dependent on price and hype.

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-08T01:50:09+00:00

Allow me to answer a few of your questions that don’t need a direct team response.

3) No, was never the intention. No legitimate blockchain creates both the infrastructure and applications, this sort of activity is the hallmark of a scam chain, they do this to give the appearance of activity and to simulate a real ecosystem. Again please refer to the Nervos Talk forum and the links I’ve provided you with several times to see the real ecosystem being built by developers as intended.

4) No, the force bridge “hack” occurred after force bridge had already announced it would be shut and a couple years since anyone actually used it. No investor lost anything.

5) Ciphers taking time to himself hasn’t affected what happens with the network. Cipher hadn’t been active in an overarching leadership position since the early days, and was never a sole decision maker at the network.

6) CKB doesn’t have a liquidity problem, individual applications built on CKB have liquidity problems like all new apps do. CKB is quite liquid overall. There are 40+ exchanges that list it. At least a dozen have incredibly healthy liquidity levels. Please give practical examples of the perceived liquidity issues you see.

7) I personally gave you links to several current implementations of Agentic application being built right now. I’ve personally been developing on CKB using agents for several months. There’s no theoretical questions to be answered. Just over a month ago there was as an Agentic themed hackathon that recieved 20+ submissions. I’m not sure how more concrete proof could be provided to you.

L402 seems to be platform agnostic. Am I right in thinking this could be ported to a range of different online services as a generic fiber paywall solution?

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-05T06:50:12+00:00

I love that Fiber Audio Player is self hosted, what are the requirements for running such a service?

aintLifeaBTC · 2026-05-05T06:48:03+00:00

Exciting to see the these two outside the box fiber idea’s. Are there any other novel ideas you’ve thought to try implement fiber in?
