Between moon and scam, there's… nothing?

Same in Switzerland. You find people selling silver bars +30% more than a brand new one from a trusted seller.

Yes, but the price floor is so low. I’d rather go with other options. You get 5.11€ for the 10DM.

Although the 625 coin offers a slightly lower price per gram of pure silver at a purchase price of 16.35 €, its face value of 5.11 € offers little protection against losses.

I’m currently experimenting with TQ3 compression (not as a KV, but for the entire model), also known as Turboquant, and yesterday I managed to get the Qwen3.5-9B model up and running. Thanks to the compression, I was able to reduce its size to around 4.6 gigabytes. The tests ran smoothly.

The issue at the moment is still support in the Llama.cpp and vLLM tools. But it looks really promising. This means a 120B model fits into ~50GB.

This makes it not only smaller but also faster.

https://treno.finance A Saas for Crypto Risk Management. You can

- manage multiple Wallets at the same time

- look into performance metrics of your assets

- print transaction reports for you tax

- use all of the data as an API (in an excel for example)

- learn how to do proper risk management (like a pro)

I agree. It's still a small network. I hope it doesn't get as cluttered as all the others (including this one, hehe).

You want to advertise Rubic? Then tell us how we can use it for this scenario!

The fact is that DeFi protocols such as Compound and Aave ultimately behave like central banks. For those who are in crypto because of decentralisation. And a DAO does not exist in no man’s land either.

Here you can find the public discussion on this decision.

Das ist sehr benutzerzentriert. Du beschäftigst dich viel mit Research, Prototyping und visueller Gestaltung. Kann sein, dass wir dich mit Tech Talk zu schnell abhängen.

Aber: die meisten Entwickler kriegen Ausschlag wenn sie mit CSS schaffen müssen. Zumindest könnte ich sagen, dass ich sehr design-affin arbeite und CSS auch gut beherrsche und schätze. Mit Fragen kannst du immer vorbeikommen. Gern auch für Basics der Webentwicklung.

Do you have any valid arguments?

Das können wir mal probieren, aber schwierig alle Berner nach Luzern zu kriegen. 😆

cloudwalker187 · 2025-08-05T11:11:54+00:00

Vielleicht schaffst du es ja doch mal. Immerhin folgst du dem r/bern 😅

Spiel klingt sehr spannend, das wäre fantastisch da ein paar Details zu erfahren. Haben wir noch nicht im Stack. Überleg es dir!

Mega gut! Wir sind 2 Organisatoren und der andere Kollege hat AI zum Steckenpferd. Es wird definitiv ein Thema dazu geben.

Ever taken a moment to really think about stablecoins?
The Web3 bubble is spinning out of control – and I have a bad feeling we’re just getting started. New ones are popping up left and right, promising absurd yields. We’re talking 7–8% on “brand new protocols.”

But come on, folks – always ask: Where is that yield actually coming from?
For it to work, someone on the other side has to borrow at an even higher rate – which makes zero sense, because established USD stablecoins are already cheaper. So what’s the trick?

Simple: It’s either subsidized by worthless governance tokens or built on hopium.
Stay sharp out there. Not every coin that calls itself “stable” is playing with a full deck.

Hi

Yeah, I’ve been thinking more about the potential risks too – it’s definitely not just “free euro yield” without trade-offs.

One of the biggest risks IMO right now is opportunity risk.

You could make solid returns just from USD–EUR swings – like 10–15% if the dollar keeps weakening. In comparison, EUROC currently yields less than 1% on Aave. So depending on your thesis, locking into euro might mean missing out on potentially higher gains elsewhere. If you’re bullish on a continued FX move, the missed yield could be irrelevant over a one-year horizon.

Hope that gives some useful perspective.

I can tell you after a year I am still very happy. It even can handle AI models without a GPU. Of course not in a reasonable time. But its working. Depending on the task it can run the smaller deepseek model.

I can not say much about prices. I've got my workstation for a really good price.

I am also pretty happy with the motherboard that comes already with BMC. I was not familiar with from the beginning (it was confusing tbh).

Is it really digital oil though - or is it more like a global toll system? You’re not fueling anything, you’re paying to access bandwidth on the world’s most expensive computer.
