Haven't posted here in a while but figured I'd write a post to see if I should come back 😅
First longer form thing would be about an AI theory paper that I worked on that was inspired by crypto

Maybe the most interesting DeFi research in recent years
Everyone on the X is too distracted with immigration, so I’m giving a sneak peek of some research here
Decentralized Perpetuals have long been the dream but they’ve been too capital inefficient
Many advances pushed DEX-CEX market share to >6% — but how are how are they related?
We answer this!

Watching a talk by Yinyu Ye at WINE and being convinced Shampoo and all of these fancy preconditioning methods that are shilled on X are really just “gradient descent to approximate a sequence of online LPs”

Quote from WINE 2024: “Ethereum is less decentralized than Cardano due to pooling [LSTs] but restaking might fix this”
lol? Their argument was based on a Shapley Value construction which seems likely to differ from proportional rules a lot

There is no inherent reason in DeSci not to spam marginal or even fake results (think: bioarXiv Covid slop data science around March 2020) in order to get rewards as opposed to making multi year bets that improve knowledge
Perpetuals traders telling you otherwise are purely self motivated

Bluesky is a safe space for me to say that DeSci is mainly a scam, don’t get caught by influenzas who are pumping a coin yet can’t tell you what an orbital is

Imagining famous mathematicians as VCs is a hobby of mine and I do it to thoroughly troll my alt @lmao.bsky.social (who is a vee cee™️)

In spite of the constant “Bluesky has immaculate vibes” chatter I hear from people, I have to say that the intellectual convos aren’t that great; there seems to be a lot of naval gazing and no “Crihan posts theorems” 😂
