Ben Fielding: Gensyn’s Fueling an AI-Native Internet, Open vs. Closed Source AI and RL Swarm

Delphi Digital

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. AI scaling hits physical limits: Centralized hyperscalers face diminishing returns; the future needs horizontally scalable, decentralized compute enabled by protocols like Gensyn.
  2. The Internet gets personal (and probabilistic): Expect a shift from static databases to dynamic, parameter-based experiences, requiring ubiquitous, verified ML execution.
  3. Open beats closed (eventually): Open-source models and decentralized learning (like RL Swarm) will likely outpace closed systems by leveraging global compute and diverse data, mitigating centralized bias risks.

The Agent Network — Dharmesh Shah, Agent.ai + CTO of HubSpot

Latent Space

AI

Key Takeaways:


1. Agents Evolve into Teammates: Shift perspective from agents as mere tools to digital collaborators within hybrid teams, requiring platforms like Agent.ai for discovery and interaction.


2. Engineer Pragmatically, Vibe Code: Lean towards under-engineering; AI reduces refactoring costs, making it cheaper to pay down tech debt later than to over-invest in unused abstractions now.


3. Unlock Networks with Standards & Memory: Prioritize building blocks like the mCP standard and tackle the critical challenge of secure, shared, cross-agent memory to enable true agent collaboration.

Haonan Li on How Codex is Taking Over The $7 Trillion FX Market

The Rollup

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. As global economies grapple with inflation and inefficient financial systems, capital seeks refuge and utility in digital assets. Onchain FX provides a direct, cost-effective escape route, bypassing legacy intermediaries and offering a superior alternative for cross-border value transfer.
  2. Builders should focus on creating core financial primitives like onchain FX that solve real-world problems with superior economics, rather than chasing speculative narratives or token-driven vanity metrics.
  3. The next 6-12 months will see a continued acceleration of capital into crypto-native financial rails, particularly in emerging markets. Investors and builders should position themselves to capitalize on the structural cost advantages and network effects of onchain FX, which is poised to become a default market for many currency pairs.

New Fed Chair, Gold, Silver & Crypto Tank! Where Will Markets Go From Here?

Bankless

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The US is pivoting from a QE-fueled, government-led economy to a "free market" model under the new Fed Chair, Kevin Warsh. This means a potential reduction in the Fed's balance sheet (QT) and lower rates without yield curve control (YCC), leading to decreased US dollar liquidity.
  2. Adopt a phased, data-driven allocation strategy. Michael Nato recommends an 80% cash position, deploying first into Bitcoin (65% target) at macro lows (around 65K-58K BTC, MVRV < 1, 200WMA touch), then into high-conviction core assets (20%), long-term holds (10%), and finally "hot sauce" (5%) during wealth creation.
  3. The current "wealth destruction" phase, while painful, presents a rare opportunity to accumulate assets at generational lows, provided one understands the macro shifts and adheres to a disciplined, multi-stage deployment plan.

Building the Onchain Super App | Xiao-Xiao J. Zhu

Lightspeed

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. The financial world is splitting into two parallel systems: opaque TradFi and transparent onchain finance. Value is migrating to platforms that can simplify and distribute onchain financial products globally.
  2. Invest in or build applications that prioritize mobile-native experiences, abstract away crypto complexities (like gas fees), and offer tangible real-world utility for onchain assets.
  3. The future of finance is onchain, and "super apps" like Jupiter are building the necessary infrastructure and user experiences to onboard the next billion users.
