明面是客观的产品体验问答,背地里则是两个业务类似项目的较劲与品牌形象维护。

这几天最值得关注的事件之一,便是 IO.NET 的代币上线。

从币安开盘的价格变化,再到提供显卡挖取 IO 代币的经验复盘...似乎所有的关注点都集中在 IO 的资产层面。

不过,也有人唱反调。

比如另一个同为去中心化云计算的项目 Akash Network,其创始人 Greg Osuri 就有些闲不住,在注意力都在 IO 价格变化的当下,跑去体验了一把 IO.NET 的产品。

结果这一体验,效果却有点不尽人意。

Greg 于是在推特上开始接连指出 IO.NET 的各种产品体验问题,硬是从别家的创始人变成了 IO.NET 的“质检员”。

而 IO.NET 的 CTO GauravTdhinait 则接连回复,逐条对 Greg 提出的问题予以耐心解释。

双方有来有回,明面是客观的产品体验问答,背地里则是两个业务类似项目的较劲与品牌形象维护。

Akash 创始人体验友商产品并提提意见,在这个节骨眼上你很难说这是“顺手一用”,还是“故意挑刺”。

我们整理了 Akash 创始人 Greg 与 IO.NET CTO GauravTdhinait 的对线始末,将事件本身进行还原。

买苹果得诺基亚,大呼上当?

事情的起因,源于 Akash 创始人 Greg 在使用 IO.NET 时最初的一个故障反馈。

Greg 在 IO.NET 上购买了 4 个 A 100 GPU 显卡集群服务,并且支付了相应的费用。

而在部署集群和支付费用流程完毕之后,Greg 却发现货不对板,查看各种数据之后他发现自己并没有得到 4 个型号为 A 100 GPU,而是只得到了一张 RTX a 4000 。

从纸面上看,他想要的和实际给他的,性能差距巨大。Greg 直言这有点像你付了购买苹果手机的钱,却只拿到一台老款的诺基亚手机。

为了表示真实性,Greg 在推特上@ IO.NET 讨要说法之余,还不忘配上其录制的包含所有购买和操作步骤的视频录屏。

这个帖子很快被传播发酵,甚至其他人也倾向于认为这属于欺诈,要求 IO.NET 给说法。

此举很快就引来了 IO.NET 的 CTO Gaurav(@GauravTdhinait)的亲自下场回复,而 Gaurav 则给出了相对合理的解释。

Greg 这个视频录屏中所谓的“货不对板”,实际上是因为他创建的集群里有一台服务器(节点)不健康,所以集群没法正常运行。

而至于为什么要 A 100 得到了 RTX a 4000 ,具体来说,Greg 所展示的 RTX a 4000 其实是集群的主节点(负责管理和协调的服务器),而不是用来执行高性能计算任务的工作节点(负责实际计算的服务器)。

并且这个有问题的集群 IO.NET 不会收钱,并且之后会被自动销毁。

说人话就是,你录的视频和实际看到的不是一回事。

买苹果得到的还是苹果,只是因为这台苹果手机有问题,才会出现了你认为的误解。

更重要的是,CTO Gaurav 还提供了另一些证据:Greg 实际上在 IO.NET 上一共创建了 7 个集群,其中 6 个都成功运行了。

而 Greg 则只针对这个失败的个例发帖并要求予以说明,虽然 IO.NET 没有直接对这个行为进行评价,但很难让人不联想到 Greg 可能是揪着个例挑刺。

成功的 6 个不录也不说,失败的 1 个录屏并要求回复。评论区也有网友直言:

你看起来不像是真的来好好使用产品的...

质检员当到底

在质疑货不对板之后,Greg 并没有停止充当 IO.NET 的质检员,依然还在吐槽 IO.NET 产品上的其他问题,揪着各类体验问题不放。

比如,Greg 提出自己充了 100 U 到 IO.NET 的账户中,但是并没有获得升级来解锁购买更多集群的资格,并质疑 IO.NET 故意在搞审查,限制了他账户的权限;

又比如,IO.NET 的 CTO 觉得 Greg 使用产品的行为异常,快速的创建一个集群服务 2 分钟后又立马删除,Greg 非常认真的进行驳斥,说自己没有立马删除,而是过了好久才删除,因为 IO.NET 的系统一直不能正确显示 GPU,看着像程序没有响应,这才进行了合理删除...

而截止本文撰写时,Greg 依然在推特上不断地开新帖,甚至将各种问题放在一起进行吐槽,并告诉大家不要相信 IO.NET CTO 的一面之词,顺便夸了一下自家的 Akash Network 流畅运行。

IO.NET 到底有没有体验问题,有多少体验问题,在这样的对线和曝光贴中反而显得不重要了;

取而代之的观感是,作为另一个项目的创始人,却花大量的精力来“体验”别家的产品,并不依不饶的指出各种问题,认真驳斥每一个“一面之词”。

这到底是自家的 CEO,还是别家的免费质检员?

如此一来,纠缠于细节更多的让人觉得不是较真,而是把段位拉低了。

Greg 的行为也引来了社区的批评,有人直言“兄弟你该花时间改进自己的产品,而不是抱怨竞争对手”,而另一些 AKT 的持有者觉得 Greg 的格局不行,搞得自己都想卖币了。

同行相轻

古语言文人相轻,常常指文人之间互相谁也看不起谁。

其实你很容易 Greg 这种挑刺的爽感和动机 --- 我也是跟你搞一样业务的人,眼里当然容不下你的小错误;甚至时常有“这你都搞不定,那我真的想说说你”的冲动。

所以 Akash 创始人吐槽 IO.NET,不得不说是一种 DePIN 相轻。

大家都有两把刷子,但也都希望对方只有一把。

DePIN 或去中心化云计算项目层出不穷,技术上本身没有太多门槛,更多的是资源密集型的业务。体验的高低、丝滑的程度和品牌资源的多寡,往往才是拼胜负的重要筹码。

但亲自下场客串质检员,如果没有绝对的把握能够指出问题,最后更多的还是伤了自家的品牌形象。

毕竟如果对竞争对手苛刻挑刺,真等到自家产品出点小意外,社区可是会翻旧账的。

给自己和他人留余地,或许才是在草台班子横行的世界中通行的处世哲学。

A Hard-Fought Battle to Defend Par Value: STRC Drifts Further Away from $100

STRC, the dividend-paying stock issued by Michael Saylor's bitcoin reserve firm Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), is trading far below its intended $100 par value, closing recently at $80.84. With a key dividend snapshot date approaching, Saylor aims to pull the price back to $100, as per SEC filings stating the company's goal to stabilize the stock near that level. The situation is complicated by the June volume-weighted average price (VWAP) falling below $95, triggering an internal rule that mandates the next dividend increase to be at least double the standard 0.25% per cycle, potentially pushing the annualized dividend yield to 12%. However, attracting buyers with this higher yield faces challenges: the payout is spread over 24 bi-monthly installments, the board can alter or suspend dividends at any time, and there is no guarantee against further price declines. Beyond raising dividends, Strategy has limited tools to boost the stock. These include direct share buybacks (never utilized), halting new share issuances above $100 (which currently cap the price), selling ordinary MSTR shares to build a cash buffer for dividends (with limited effect so far), or announcing special shareholder benefits. Historically, STRC has reclaimed the $100 mark, such as in October last year, driven by a combination of dividend fulfillment, a rate hike, and a pause in share sales. The core question remains how much cost and effort Strategy is willing to bear to attract the necessary buying pressure to restore the $100 par value.

Fable 5 is about to make a comeback, code exposed? Anthropic CEO kicked out of the White House

Fable 5, a previously restricted AI model from Anthropic, appears poised for a comeback. Evidence from leaked code in the Claude Code v2.1.190 version suggests a shift in its business model from a separate purchase to a potentially limited weekly usage allowance within standard Claude subscriptions. Furthermore, the model has reportedly reappeared in Amazon Bedrock documentation. This potential revival coincides with significant internal changes at Anthropic. According to a report by The Wired, CEO Dario Amodei was reportedly sidelined from negotiations with the Trump administration over Fable 5's export restrictions. Government officials found him difficult to communicate with. Co-founder Tom Brown and policy head Sarah Heck took over discussions, leading to more productive technical talks aimed at addressing White House security concerns about the model being "jailbroken." External pressure is mounting as a bipartisan group of US lawmakers has demanded answers from the Commerce Department by a June 26 deadline regarding the criteria and timeline for potentially reinstating public access to Fable 5. The potential return of Fable 5 comes as competitors OpenAI and Google have reportedly delayed their own major model releases. If Anthropic successfully navigates the government's security review, Fable 5 could gain a significant "safety-certified" advantage in the enterprise market. The countdown to the June 26 deadline is now underway.
