Really interesting deep dive on crypto inference (crypto networks that pay people to run AI models on their own hardware). One thing that caught my eye: Eigenclouds @darkbloomai is the only provider running 7 AI models on consumer hardware. They're currently paying 1,143 Mac owners to serve inference, at the lowest price in the report ($0.13 per million tokens). A cool way to earn real money from spare hardware you may have lying around:
AI is one of the biggest wealth creation events in decades. If you're in your 20s or 30s, you should wake up ecstatic every single day. Here's my tier list of the best AI money-making opportunities in the market right now. S tier: • AI media + distribution: the ultimate moat (what I'm personally going for) A tier: • AI automation agency: package specific workflows, low barrier, very scalable • AI digital products: advantage here is that you build once and can sell for years • AI high-ticket consulting: $20-50K implementations for bigger companies • AI trading + investing: great as a second engine; make sure it's not your only income B tier (all decent options) • AI small business consulting • AI newsletters/writing • AI live shopping C tier (def better options than these) • AI UGC ads • AI voice agents • Faceless channels D tier (probably best to avoid) • AI website generation • Fully automated AI clipping
I think one of the best agentic skills that everyone should set up is an "anti-slop" skill. Essentially, tell your AI EVERYTHING you don't like (em dashes, robotic language, etc.) and build a skill from it. You can then import the skill across all your tools. If you don't want to build one from scratch, there are tons already available on GitHub. But I do think having a fully personalised version is worth it.
Claude can literally build anything. I deployed 5+ agents to build a profitable trading indicator for me. They did it in <2 hours. What a time to be in crypto... https://t.co/nE74XyHHmA
The biggest opportunities in crypto this cycle (my take - shortlist): • Agentic trading (obvious bet) • Crypto x AI (infra, payments, data, identity) • Tokenisation • Collectibles • Prediction markets (still huge PMF) • Stablecoin rails • Social trading (another obvious one) • Privacy What am I missing?
TradingView has gotten so cocky. According to their new rules (that they quietly snuck into TOS), I now have to pay a "small" $30,000/mo to share indicators with my community. Many of which have been given out for free. Instead of making them more money, all this will do is drive power-users and community-owners off the platform. If I were @tradingview - I'd be reversing this immediately and putting out a public statement. AI is getting so good, there are more alternatives than ever. This will push the competition (and users) even harder to build their own solutions, where they aren't beholden to monopolistic policy.
