What Is Real? I picked up What Is Real? by Adam Becker whilst on a short break—and it pulled me right in. It’s one of those books that, while demanding your full attention as it weaves you into quantum theory, completely transports you. Einstein, Schrödinger, Bohr, Heisenberg—their debates weren’t just abstract thought experiments but real, deep philosophical rifts that shaped physics as we know it. And what’s fascinating is that science could have taken a very different turn. Still working through it, but the way quantum mechanics intertwines wave functions, particles, and probabilities is mind-bending. It also makes you reflect—especially when you contrast it with something like Autobiography of a Yogi. There’s an odd resonance between the quantum world’s uncertainty and the metaphysical ideas of consciousness and reality. It’s in these intersections—science, philosophy, and the unexplored—that things get truly interesting. That’s crypt too, btw. Have a good week end 💭

aarnâ’s kick off in HK We're in Hong Kong for Consensus 2025. Had a great session with Mind Network at AI Mind Express @ HK, diving into how AI & tokenization are shaping the future of onchain digital asset management. And private & secure transactions in DeFi. From AI quant on blockchain data to autonomous portfolio management via tokenized assets, the discussions were sharp, forward-looking, and exactly what this space needs to bring in mainstream capital onchain. Enjoyed presenting âfi802 to a great audience, and then further delving into AI & crypto convergence with my awesome co-panelists We also discussed with the Mind Networks team exploring FHE as a way to bring more secure transactions for âfi vault —because as DeFi scales, privacy and efficiency must scale with it. We haveBig things ahead, and we’re just getting started.

DeepSeek's $6M AI Model Challenges Computing Orthodoxy, Reshapes Global AI Race China flexing hard in the AI race with DeepSeek’s open-weight release of a frontier-grade LLM, and honestly, it’s a statement. Training a model with just 2048 GPUs over two months and $6M – when the industry norm involves clusters 10x or even 100x larger – speaks volumes about their efficiency in both data and algorithms. This isn't just an impressive feat; it's a paradigm shift. If DeepSeek-V3 delivers on its promises, it's a wake-up call. The AI space has always been about compute arms races, but this pushes the narrative into a new dimension: resourcefulness. China's approach here could lead to a broader rethink of how much money and machines it actually takes to create state-of-the-art models. It may also accelerate a shift in competitive dynamics—what was once an arms race of hardware could become an arms race of optimization and strategy. ations push harder for AI supremacy.

GM ☀️ from the Lion City 🏙️ Kicked off the day with my cuppa at my pad, with a breathtaking vista of the Singapore CBD skyline and some paddlers enjoying the calm waters. Feeling grateful for moments like these that remind us to pause and appreciate the beauty all around. Here's to making the most of the day ahead! 🚣‍♀️

> the great wealth migration as promised, here's the piece I penned down, you can check it in the thread or visit my site s r i dot c a m p TLDR: This article shares personal reflections on digital assets and macro portfolio shifts. As Bitcoin approaches $100K, and crypto markets exceeding $3 trillion, whilst traditional markets face stagnation; digital assets are becoming an inevitable component of future wealth creation. driven by wider decentralized technology adoption, DeFi, tokenization, and beyond. 📈 📉 This is not financial advice in any form. And remember, digital assets are highly volatile As I post this, in this year net inflows into Bitcoin and Eth ETFs have already reached $25Bn - in case you're still thinking that the blog's title is hyperbole 😉

the future of finance at un# SG We’ve been having multiple discussions in Singapore with groups of very accomplished individuals - bankers, entrepreneurs, senior tech execs, crypto experts, quant traders, wealth advisors, high net worth individuals - on DeFi, with topics ranging from on-chain asset management, AI x Tokenization, and broadly the future of finance based on crypto. Last evening we had an amazing immersive session with a great audience at the lively Draper Startup House - we got so engrossed in our discussions that my team forgot to take any pictures! Luckily, we managed to snap a few at the end as a token of the un# SG event - believe me we had an audience of more than 20 great people! 😄

Today it is Hinton & Hopfield for machine learning, and it’s rooted in Physics, even if in an abstract way. Tomorrow, in a decade or two, it will be for decentralized technologies. Decentralization secured by cryptography is a foundational tech. That Hinton has on multiple times expressed concerns about how concentration (ie centralization) of AI can lead to significant imbalance (which zero sum oriented valley folks don’t like), also points in the direction of why decentralization in all vital areas like finance, computation, AI etc is of critical importance in the next decade

the aarnâuts are here in Singapore > Excited & ready, the team is all set for our launch at Token 2049 on Wednesday, one of the world's largest crypto events! We have a lot planned, including our pre-event collaboration for CapitalX tomorrow, where I will touch upon how tradfi institutions can get exposure to DeFi via tokenised structured products and manage risk. There are more touch points planned for the launch of âfi 802, which as a first AI designed tokenized structured product is a definitive step forward into the next generation of decentralised asset management. Check us out at Token2049, and happy to even catch up over a coffee or beer in Sg in the coming weeks.

Unpopular take: After three crypto cycles, it's clear to me that bear markets are crucial for maturity. Unlike public markets, crypto bull markets can drown us in hype with: - Memecoin mania driven by random celebrities - Influencers/VCs sharing baseless opinions - Low float, high valuation VC junk dumps - A gambling mentality chasing trends Bear markets refocus us on: - Real use cases finding product-market fit - Big-picture vision and tech advancements - Serious projects and teams We closed a big sprint y’day! More soon.

GM ☀️ My oped @blockworks > Memecoins may seem fun, but they’re bad news for DeFi. They undermine credibility and pose serious risks to resource allocation, liquidity, and reputation. The casino crowd & self-anointed chads may not like it 😎 https://blockworks.co/news/memecoin-speculative-sideshow-threatens-defi/

Getting ready for launch after Sunday’s deep work 🚀 The more I see the deep state of the financial system, the more motivated I am to continue building an app that will truly take the power of decentralized finance to the ones who deserve it
