🚀 New Decentralized "ChatGPT": Venice AI

Venice AI, a decentralized generative AI model, has joined the internet and now operates in real-time!

🌐 Launched in May by ShapeShift founder Erik Voorhees, Venice AI focuses on privacy and positions itself as an alternative to centralized models like ChatGPT (OpenAI), Claude (Anthropic), and Gemini (Google).

🕒 Previously limited by two-year-old knowledge, Venice AI now provides up-to-date information with source links.

🔒 Unlike ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, Venice AI ensures all conversations are confidential, requiring no permissions. Data is stored locally in your browser, and Venice never censors AI responses.

🔍 Venice AI uses the privacy-focused Brave browser API for internet searches.

Conversations with Venice AI are stored locally and not sent to company servers. Users can transfer conversations to other devices with an encrypted link using the "Share" button.

Listing the token while leaving users with the airdrop aside = "successful listing" ?🤬

And is the ear all right now? 😁

Elon Musk has updated his profile picture on X to one featuring "laser eyes", a popular meme within the crypto community. 🦸‍♂️

These avatars are typically adopted by public figures in response to a rising Bitcoin price and a bullish market sentiment. 📈

📆 From July 25-27, the Bitcoin 2024 crypto conference will be held in Nashville, where Donald Trump is expected to speak. The event is organized by Bitcoin Magazine's head, David Bailey, who is also advising Trump on cryptocurrency issues for his campaign.

👀 Bailey posted on X, hinting that he is about to "break the internet." Social media is buzzing with speculation that he might announce Musk's appearance at the event. 🔥

A test transfer has been made from the Mt. Gox exchange wallet to the Bitstamp exchange address.

👀 It seems that the administrators of the bankrupt exchange are preparing for a new round of compensation payments to clients.

Previously, Bitstamp representatives stated that they would start transferring bitcoins to Mt. Gox clients as soon as the funds were moved to the exchange's wallet. According to the distribution terms, Bitstamp will have 60 days to make the payments, but its representatives have assured that they will not delay the disbursements. 🧐

Currently, the Mt. Gox wallet holds 90,000 bitcoins, valued at $6 billion, according to Arkham. 💰

Scam for $2.2 million 🥷

💰A decentralized fund managed to collect $2.2 million from ordinary crypto users. People bought the $ETF token and received a share in the fund.

The fund promised to invest these funds in various projects and share the profits with investors. 🧐

Three months later, the CEO decided to "invest" all the money into his own pocket. 😁

The project’s documents proudly stated:
"The highest-yield token on Earth." 👀

It's amazing how they convinced people to invest $2.2 million with such a slogan... 🤔

What could we all be missing after the German government sold off their Bitcoin? 🇩🇪💰

Only some German Bitcoin heavy metal! 🎸

The number of Telegram users has approached 1 billion thanks to "tappers"! 🚀

Amid the hype around crypto games, Telegram's popularity continues to grow. Pavel Durov announced that the number of active users of the messenger has already exceeded 950 million per month. 🙀

This trend is explained by clicker games that offer cryptocurrency earnings by "tapping" the screen. 👇 📱 It all started with the Notcoin project, followed by successors such as TapSwap, Hamster Kombat (both mentioned by Durov on his channel), and others.

🤷 There are now so many tappers that it's hard to impress users with originality. Unless, of course, the game is backed by a large platform like OKX, which recently launched its own tapper.
