According to the account, Musk wanted majority equity, initial board control and the CEO role, and when OpenAI would not accept any individual having absolute control, he suggested merging OpenAI into Tesla. The account also says Musk withheld funding during these talks, that Reid Hoffman bridged the gap to cover salaries and operations, and that Musk wrote in December 2018 that raising several hundred million dollars would not be enough without billions per year. ## 3. Surviving crypto cycles - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Surviving-crypto-cycles?index=0x65e79229c11ec516e00005d3393ba34002226440bb73618233bb41d0ec66e8edfaa876d4 - Source: https://www.paradigm.xyz/2021/03/surviving-crypto-cycles - Submitted by macbudkowski.eth, 8 upvotes, 2 comments Fred Ehrsam, co-founder of Coinbase, writes in a private note to portfolio companies that crypto cycles are natural and that founders should build resilience during euphoric times. He says crypto has exited every past cycle stronger than it entered, citing metrics such as developer activity and corporate adoption. He recommends keeping the core mission, stress-testing for 10-100x usage spikes, and raising cash before a downturn, noting Coinbase fundraised before the 2017 winter and put half of one raise in a separate account. ## 4.

What is Your System Prompt? - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/What-is-Your-System-Prompt?index=0x65edc99f462dc060a27372ac0f5149f2903d725aa4d20b44d3603a79ad6b18faf0505f64 - Source: https://sceneswithsimon.com/p/what-is-your-system-prompt - Submitted by misha, 7 upvotes, 0 comments The article, by Simon de la Rouviere, examines what a system prompt is and proposes that a good one for a person should be concise and descriptive, condensing a worldview into a few sentences. It compares the published system prompts of Claude, Grok and ChatGPT, noting that ChatGPT's is long and tool-focused while Claude's contains some generally good advice. De la Rouviere writes a sample personal system prompt describing himself as an Afrikaans white man in his 30s who grew up in post-Apartheid South Africa, with habits such as listening more than speaking, forgiving rather than standing his ground, and sharing his writing through a weekly newsletter. The post ends with a personal update on his second bout of COVID and his cancelled half-marathon. ## 8. AI+ - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/AI?index=0x65e783c2d2cc2774e66a5aee2dcaf4c4ef569cf567f2f0b8884a6e1dbb921484fa8b49ef - Source: https://jacob.energy/ai.html - Submitted by pedrovilela.eth, 6 upvotes, 4 comments Crypto and AI are complementary technologies, and minting AI-related work onchain offers a way to address the attribution and value-capture problems that AI is exposing in the current internet. Minting lets information be bought, sold and verified as an asset, while training models makes it remixable and usable. Examples include Robbie Barrat's 2018 AI artworks, the first mints on Superrare, and Holly Herndon's raw singing model, which was minted on Zora and auctioned for 15 ETH in 2022. The New York Times is suing ChatGPT for billions of dollars over training on more than 100 years of journalism. ## 9. Purple DAO: Migrating Purple to Base - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Purple-DAO-Migrating-Purple-to-Base?index=0x65ed3e7b18ec8cc7b582099fa7571beb1877a4478f2506692de6bd7f843edb274af78273 - Source: https://www.alphacaster.xyz/dao/purple-publicgoods/prop/57 - Submitted by misha, 7 upvotes, 0 comments ## 10. How to hard-fork to save most users’ funds in a quantum emergency - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/How-to-hard-fork-to-save-most-users-funds-in-a-quantum-emergency?index=0x65edb6dacd8a4cd4c24ad7001c38782caf9ab95aa24b5d6cb396594e2114366e23ad5457 - Source: https://ethresear.ch/t/how-to-hard-fork-to-save-most-users-funds-in-a-quantum-emergency/18901 - Submitted by pedrovilela.eth, 7 upvotes, 1 comment The author argues that Ethereum is already well-positioned for a recovery hard fork in a quantum emergency, in which few users would lose funds. Under the proposed structure, the chain would revert blocks after the first block where large-scale theft is clearly underway, and traditional EOA-based transactions would be disabled. Users would then prove knowledge of a private preimage, using one of k approved hash functions, that maps to their address with a STARK proof, and their account code would switch to new validation code. Because STARKs are large, the proofs could be batched, with a STARK-of-STARKs keeping each user's preimage private from the aggregator. ## 11. Binance launches a new fragrance called ‘CRYPTO’ to attract women - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Binance-launches-a-new-fragrance-called-CRYPTO-to-attract-women?index=0x65e8d202825fb8a73772ae92ad661fb5f6229dd964e81fcff27d4acada9c9a974f015eb6 - Source: https://x.com/binance/status/1765376794746642730?s=20 - Submitted by tim, 7 upvotes, 0 comments ## 12.

To launch one, users log into t2 and click "New Territory" on the home page, then name it, add an optional description, and set the t.p. deposit required for membership, which defaults to 5. The creator becomes the Admin by default and is bound by the Admin Code of Conduct, and Admins can leave at will without receiving any t.p. back. A Territory can only be deleted once it is empty of posts, prompts and members other than the Admin. ## 13. How to Raise the Gas Limit, Part 1: State Growth - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/How-to-Raise-the-Gas-Limit-Part-1-State-Growth?index=0x65e60503687e0cb9e83ca3e59d1243aecf99c7a87d1bc374fd7213c2d6d1de3182dbe303 - Source: https://www.paradigm.xyz/2024/03/how-to-raise-the-gas-limit-1 - Submitted by 0xf9f9...736D, 6 upvotes, 0 comments State growth is often assumed to be Ethereum's primary scaling bottleneck, but analysis of high-resolution data concludes that modern consumer hardware can sustain current state growth for at least a decade. Ethereum state currently takes up about 245.5 GiB on disk and grows around 2.62 GiB per month, down from a peak of 5.99 GiB per month. Tokens are the largest contributor, with ERC-20 and ERC-721 occupying 27.2% and 21.6% of state. The piece is part 1 of a four-part series that also covers history growth, state access and the gas limit. ## 14. Apple’s Anti-Competitive Behavior Is Illegal and Harms Consumers - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Apples-Anti-Competitive-Behavior-Is-Illegal-and-Harms-Consumers?index=0x65e5f17b65044d8b37a26074a690c2e09a01c04c8e8d216e823c8a71ed0965f1c5ae9362 - Source: https://newsroom.spotify.com/2024-03-04/the-european-commission-confirms-apples-anti-competitive-behavior-is-illegal-and-harms-consumers - Submitted by misha, 5 upvotes, 0 comments Spotify says the European Commission's March 4, 2024 decision that Apple violated EU antitrust laws, with a fine of over €1.8 billion, is a step toward fairer treatment of iPhone users, though it argues more change is needed. As of August 14, 2024, Spotify is opting into Apple's "entitlement" for music streaming services, so EU iPhone users can see Spotify's pricing and that they can buy through its website. Spotify says Apple still imposes taxes that prevent in-app purchase links, and that Apple has defied laws in other markets, so the company will watch the next steps closely. ## 15. Wyoming enacts a law making it easier for DAOs to incorporate - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Wyoming-enacts-a-law-making-it-easier-for-DAOs-to-incorporate?index=0x65eb1dbfc29f93526c3ec1742dc98d98c062b69bec6a25fba4429085b052e292a88dea22 - Source: https://twitter.com/milesjennings/status/1766095658640195821 - Submitted by macbudkowski.eth, 6 upvotes, 0 comments ## 16. Everything Is A Perp - Kiwi News: https://news.kiwistand.com/stories/Everything-Is-A-Perp?index=0x65e94b211be398c39a50503992640d47edc6b88e02d944f6c3db173171ef74f3d4dc9551 - Source: https://www.paradigm.xyz/2024/03/everything-is-a-perp - Submitted by destiner.eth, 4 upvotes, 0 comments Power perpetuals are contracts that track an index price raised to a power p, and the article argues that stablecoins, margined futures and constant product AMMs are all types of power perpetuals. It claims crypto-collateralized stablecoins like DAI or RAI are 0-perps, margined futures like dYdX are 1-perps, and Uniswap is a replicating portfolio for a 0.5-perp. Under this framing, a stablecoin with a power of 0 and collateral at 1.5 times debt tracks a price of one dollar. The article also says that the equilibrium Uniswap fee should equal the funding rate of a 0.5 perpetual, which in the simplified zero-rate case equals σ²/8. ## 17. Claude 3 just destroyed GPT-4 and Gemini...

Filecoin's growth in 2023 was above 400% year-on-year, as approximated by Filecoin growth, and as of February 2024 Filecoin stored 1.8674 EiB while Arweave stored 155 TB. The article says Arweave has drawn more adoption from developers building "onchain media" applications, with an estimated 100 TB (about 65% of Arweave) tied to Web3 social, and it expects video-enabled apps to drive the next wave. ## 19.

The proposal would raise the DSR by 10% from 5% to 15%, and the ETH-A, ETH-B and ETH-C Stability Fees by 8.84%, with WSTETH and WBTC fees rising by 9.6% and 10.07% respectively. It would also cut the GSM Delay from 48 hours to 16 hours, shorten the USDC-PSM-A ttl from 24 hours to 12 hours, and trigger a Spark proxy spell that changes the Dai Interest Rate Strategy to raise the Dai Borrow Rate to 16%. The proposal expires if not passed within 30 days.
