Google is investing $15 billion in Malaysia for data centers. One of the biggest factors? CHEAP ELECTRICITY. AI and data centers require massive amounts of power. Countries that can offer affordable and reliable electricity are becoming magnets for global tech investments.

When AI is speeding up attacks, defense has to run on AI too. Binance Co-CEO Richard Teng joins Fox to explain how Binance responded, how users were protected and how security has been strengthened since.

Nakaka-alarm na ang dami nang businesses announcing they're shutting down. Tumataas ang raw materials, logistics, operating costs, pati minimum wage. Tayo ang naiipit. Ayaw nating magtaas ng presyo kasi customers naman ang mawawala. We're all just trying to survive.

The Binance incident is a reminder: never put all your money in one exchange or asset. I've made that mistake before. It's either you get super rich or go broke. Diversify, protect your capital, and build wealth sustainably. Don't risk everything for maximum gains.

₱55 na lang laman ng GCash ko. Most of my capital is in USD to diversify and help protect my hard-earned money from peso depreciation. Hindi advice na i-convert lahat. It's about understanding currency risks. Sayang ang pinaghirapang sahod kung patuloy namang lumiit ang value.

For people who don't understand what's going on with $TIG : • Optimization = small/medium code tweaks → normal rewards. • Breakthrough = massive performance leap. • Advance = genuinely new algorithmic method → biggest rewards + long-term impact. The new Vehicle Routing win is BOTH a Breakthrough (biggest jump in modern history, worth Millions/yr for companies ) and a official Advance by Dr Vidal + community/AI. This is TIG working exactly as designed.

$TIG just passed its first breakthrough vote on vehicle routing. Not just faster. Genuinely inventive. The kind of thing a patent office would protect. 0.25–0.3% improvement in vehicle routing efficiency.$100M savings per 0.1% improvement. One company. One algorithm. $250–300M in value created. 100% of licensing revenue flows into the token.Phil is on the team. Phil has negotiated deals of this size before. The algorithm is live in round 123 now. $TIG

Less than 48 hours before voting closes! Vote here: play.tig.foundation/delegati… And have a read of a review posted by an expert of the field: forum.tig.foundation/t/advan…
A token holder vote opens at the start of round 122 and runs until the round ends. You're voting on whether "HGS_advance", the third Advance submission in TIG's history, qualifies for Advance Rewards. Your task is to decide: Is the method novel, and is it inventive? Check the links below to see the author making their case Lock your tokens to vote. We're excited about this one!

CT is underestimating $TIG's algorithms. 1-The zero-case scenario for TIG is the $TAO scenario. New projects forming to build on top of TIG algorithms. A new AI training company based on optimized neural network optimizers, for exemple. 2-Adoption is built in into the mechanism itself. Exemple: If Amazon ignores the TIG vehicle routing breakthrough(The best in the world, will be offcially announced soon), smaller companies will use it and compete for market share... The advantage dosn't stay locked in one lab. It's open to whoever acts first. TIG has 10 challenges now. It's only a matter of time before it has thousands. Imagine the economy built on that. The moat isn't the team. It's the mechanism.
Replying to @alex_ferriera
Think weak moat re patents, also the discoveries they tackle very difficult + difficult to monetise Strong team tho

$TIG dosn't care about your crypto narrative. It just happens to live there. Electricity took 40 years to show up in productivity stats. The internet took a decade. The pattern is always the same: the reorganization comes after the infrastructure, and nobody sees it until it's obvious. Electricity looked like whoever owned the most generators would win. They didn't. The winners redesigned the factory floor. The internet looked like whoever had the most servers would win. They didn't. The winners built the discovery and distribution layers. AI looks like whoever has the most GPUs will win. They won't. Eevry wave needed a layer nobody saw coming. AI needs a way to discover better algorithms withought burning a country's worth of power to find them. Open. Verifiable. Impossible to monopolize. That's TIG. Not the algorithm. Not the token. the infrastructure for how algorithms get discovered, verified, and rewarded. The layer nobody saw coming is already here.

So Claude launched Fable - which is a nerfed version of Mythos We're finally starting to see what we have predicted for a long time. The beginnings of managed stagnation. The most powerful version stays in-house, everyone else gets a throttled copy. Select "trusted" teams got access to Mythos while everyone else got Fable (and not for long - it appears that it will be available only via extra usage from June 22) meaning even the nerfed version will cost $$$ We're starting to see rich / whatever "trusted" means in this context get access to the latest and best models while everyone else gets access to a worse one They also added "novel" safeguards - including limiting what it does when used for frontier LLM development! It limits what the model does (i.e. further nerfs it) without the user even know via methods such as prompt modification. e.g. you give it a task, it returns you an output but behind the scenes if it didn't like what you asked, it changes your prompt into something it does like, and returns that without you being aware!!! And they mention LLM development as a specific aspect that's blocked! This is like Microsoft shutting down the PC when it sensed Linus Torvalds coding Linux. This is managed stagnation in its early form. One company holds the frontier and rations who gets it. The best model goes to a trusted few, a weaker one to everyone willing to pay, and nothing at all to the rest. That is exactly what open algorithms break. You can't nerf math that is already in the open. This is the fork in the road. Either algorithms go open in the next year or one company owns the future and never gives it back.
Introducing Claude Fable 5: a Mythos-class model that we’ve made safe for general use. Its capabilities exceed those of any model we’ve ever made generally available.

ÇİNLİ BİR ADAM RESMEN PARA BASMA MAKİNESİ OLUŞTURDU. Github'da 13.000 yıldız almış bir araç var. Adı moneyprinterturbo. Bir çinli geliştirici yaptı. Ücretsiz ve tamamen açık kaynak. Tiktok, reels, youtube shorts için tam videoları otomatik üretiyor. Nasıl çalışıyor. Tek bir iş akışında her şeyi hallediyor. Senaryo üretimi, seslendirme, altyazı, görsel kaynaklar, düzenleme, hepsi dakikalar içinde. Yayına hazır video çıkıyor. Sen hiçbir şeye dokunmuyorsun. Şimdi neden bu kadar popüler oldu. Çünkü normalde bu süreç şöyle işliyor. Senaryo için ayrı araç, seslendirme için ayrı araç, altyazı için ayrı araç, görsel için ayrı araç, düzenleme için ayrı araç. Her biri ayrı para istiyor, ayrı zaman istiyor, ayrı öğrenme istiyor. Moneyprinterturbo hepsini tek çatıda birleştirdi. Ücretsiz, sınırsız ve kategorisindeki en popüler açık kaynak proje haline geldi. Tiktok shop ve youtube shorts kanalları aylık 6 ila 10 bin dolar kazanıyor. Bunlar bu süreci kullanıyor. Fark şu: Onlar araçlar için para ödüyor. Sen ödemiyorsun. Kurulumu 5 dakika. Github'da ara. Kur, çalıştır, içerik üret hepsi tamamen senin elinde.

Summary of last weeks community call! Google found a powerful new algorithm and locked it away. Within months, a swarm of strangers on the internet, teenagers included, rebuilt most of it from scratch. That should not be possible. Closed labs are supposed to win.

At TIG, we always knew we’d make some surprising allies as we pursue our mission. The Pope, however, was not on our 2026 bingo card. During the first encyclical of his tenure, @pontifex was clear: algorithms must henceforth be included in the basket of ‘goods that are universally intended for everyone’. Today at 5PM BST, tune in to hear @Dr_JohnFletcher and @0x_Asuka discuss how TIG ensures that frontier technologies will remain accessible to all. See you there!

Another great discussion from @haitzu with $TIG founder @Dr_JohnFletcher 45 minutes of your time and you'll understand why $TIG is a multi billion dollar protocol in the making 👉 youtube.com/watch?v=mOK_HS6S… Tokenised algorithms 🔥🖊️ $TIG
Yeah $TIG is flying under the radar An open protocol for algorithm development listening to John explain how algorithms can optimise & help you extract maximum utility from any given chip DeepMind, OpenAI, Anthropic, they're all racing to own the algorithmic layer if they win, you pay a tax on every optimized query, every solved route, every compressed model Over the last 50 years, we focused on hardware The fight was between Intel, ASML, TSMC: who could etch circuits smallest and cheapest at scale? many years ago we realised Moore's law seemed to be hitting a ceiling, that there may be fundamental limitations of physics as such, the focus changed to how we could extract maximum utility from the hardware the fight will be for the most optimised software I spoke with @Dr_JohnFletcher to discuss the TIG mission Full ep on our youtube 00:00 Intro 00:26 Primer on $TIG 02:18 Cambridge, ARM and the TIG Team 06:33 Why open source? 15:21 Why challenges for algorithms 20:00 Role of IP licensing 23:29 Defending Against Algorithmic Monopolies 27:40 Monetisation 28:40 Use Cases 36:23 Power Struggle vs AI Labs 39:12 Freedom Ideology
