The following is a guest post and opinion from Sandy Peng, Co-Founder of Scroll. Over 1,000 FinTech companies and nearly 5,000 startups now call Hong Kong home, a 15% jump in just one year. Hong Kong has rapidly transformed into one of Asia’s most dynamic innovation hubs, having just been named the second-most crypto-friendly city […]
We’ve heard that good data is the key to better LLMs and other AI systems. The big foundation models are trying to get more and more data to train on in order to improve their reasoning, accuracy, and abilities. But avoiding bad data is just as important in AI; it can open you to fines, […]

One of the most fun things about managing your own investments is coming up with an asset allocation strategy to diversify your portfolio. You get to tinker like an alchemist to find a blend of asset classes that will weather the inevitable financial storms ahead – and hopefully someday leave you dancing upon the sunlit […]
The exchange stablecoins ratio (ESR) and stablecoin supply ratio (SSR) provide important insight into Bitcoin’s liquidity and potential buying power. ESR measures the proportion of stablecoins relative to Bitcoin exchange reserves, serving as a gauge of spot liquidity. A low ESR reflects limited immediate buying power, while a high ESR points to abundant capital waiting […]
Sustainable energy accounts for more than half of Bitcoin (BTC) mining consumption as of the first quarter, according to the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance’s Digital Mining Industry Report. Despite higher energy consumption, the industry’s reliance on sustainable energy increased, and operational metrics indicated a push toward long-term resilience through diversification and innovation. Estimated annual […]
Welcome to the next episode in our GitHub for Beginners series, where we’re diving into the world of GitHub Copilot. This is our fifth episode, and we’ve already talked about Copilot in general, some of its essential features, how to write good prompts, and a bit about security best practices. We have all the previous […]
Today’s financial services engineer has two needs. One is cutting-edge tech and frictionless access, and the other is robust security and risk management. Balancing both is tricky. “We might be a highly regulated, centuries-old bank, but when engineers join us, their expectations are cutting-edge tech and fast access to data, with a self-serve process,” explains […]
This article is part of the Circuits thread, an experimental format collecting invited short articles and critical commentary delving into the inner workings of neural networks. Visualizing Weights Weight Banding Introduction If we think of interpretability as a kind of “anatomy of neural networks,” most of the circuits thread has involved studying tiny little veins […]
