"The fatal weakness of the creation of the Galaxy Federation is that they are too advanced."

Excerpted from "The Milky Way Colonial Manual. Galaxy Federation"

------------------------------------------

Watching Mao Xiaofei leave the cafe, Lu Yang thought about the information he had just obtained alone.

Theoretically speaking, the entire Bitcoin system around the world generates a certain number of new Bitcoins every ten minutes.

Bitcoin’s “mine” is a series of numbers that can be changed in a small piece of data and does not affect other contents of the block. All mining machines participating in mining constantly modify this small piece of data while keeping accounts and calculating the hash value until this hash value meets the requirements of the current system.

If you calculate the hash value that meets the requirements, you broadcast the hash value and the block together, say "I dug it out", everyone will help you verify it, find that it is correct, and then silently put the block you dug into the system.

In this way, all the Bitcoins generated in the world within these ten minutes belong to you.

Only the first computer that tests out the correct hash value can obtain recognition of the Bitcoin blockchain and obtain ownership of the corresponding newly generated Bitcoin. This experimental algorithm can only be tried one by one through exhaustive methods.

Who can try the competition first? Ultimately, it is a competition between computers.

And the Dawn in Lu Yang's hand, even if all computers in the world are tied together, they are no match for...

Thinking of this, Lu Yang couldn't help but feel aroused.

"Chenxi, if you were asked to mine Bitcoin, will all the Bitcoins that have not yet been generated in the world in the future be directly included by you?"

"It is the case in theory. But the underlying logical structure of the native machine is completely different from that of the Earth's computer. Without special peripherals, the native machine cannot access the Earth's Internet. If you use an example that you can easily understand, it is equivalent to modern computers being unable to operate ancient abacus without the help of a robotic arm."

This answer cannot be answered by Lu Yang. After all, all the information about the earth that Chenxi has obtained is collected through his own five senses.

Its technological level is so advanced that it cannot connect to the backward electronic devices on the earth.

After all, just 40 years of technological progress have made it possible for PS5 gaming consoles to connect to TVs produced in the 1980s, and they had to use 4 adapters to complete the conversion from HDMI to old TV interfaces, not to mention the generation difference between Chenxi and Earth electronic devices.

On the contrary, it is a remote wireless brain-computer interface and consciousness upload. This ultra-high-end operation that seems to be a fantasy to the earthlings is just the most basic configuration for Chenxi.

But in this way, many ways to make money that Lu Yang had thought of before could not be realized.

"So, if I want you to start developing an invincible quantitative trading algorithm to make money by speculating in stocks or futures, you can't do it even with your current conditions?"

"It can be done, but there are only theoretical possibilities. If you want to study quantitative trading algorithms that are far higher than the highest level on the earth under the existing conditions, this machine needs to obtain all real-time transaction information of various assets in the current earth financial market, as well as a considerable amount of historical transaction information."

"You can't even have theoretical possibilities! You can't establish a connection with the computer on Earth. Even if there is this information in my computer, it can't be transmitted to you," Lu Yang couldn't help but complain.

"Theoretically, you can transmit relevant information to me by connecting with the machine's consciousness," Chenxi corrected Lu Yang's statement, "As long as you can roughly browse the historical transaction information and real-time transaction information of major assets in the capital market through visual means, this machine can theoretically study quantitative transaction algorithms that exceed the current level of the earth based on this information. The more historical transaction information you browse, the higher the excess return rate of the quantitative algorithm developed by the machine will be."

Lu Yang was speechless when he heard Chenxi's reply.

This is to use him as a human scanner!

I’m afraid no one in the world can explain how many transactions the entire world’s financial system has made online since the birth of the Internet.

Even an ordinary retail A-share investor has to trade thousands of transactions a year.

There are hundreds of millions of retail investors around the world!

This has not counted as more operations and more frequent professional investment institutions.

Even if you only look at one stock or a futures product, its historical transaction information is astronomical.

What's more, even if the investment strategy that covers only one asset is strong, it has its limits. In theory, it is impossible to obtain too high yields. Even if the current quantitative trading strategy is low, it must focus on the market conditions of seven or eight types of assets, otherwise it will not be able to compete with other quantitative strategies at all.

Understanding the difficulty here, Lu Yang had to settle for the second best.

"If I only ask the algorithm you develop to reach the world's top level, how much information do I need to browse?"

"Depending on your naked eye browsing speed and operating your computer, it only takes you 620 hours. But to truly implement this algorithm, you also need to keep a close eye on various transaction data in real time at the opening trading time of the corresponding asset, and be on standby at any time during this time, ready to execute the trading instructions issued by the machine."

"Is there any other way to optimize your trading strategy?"

"You can consider exercising your hand speed. The faster your hands react, the faster this machine can formulate a higher frequency trading strategy, and the expected return per unit time will also be improved to a certain extent than the low-frequency strategy."

"Okay, when I didn't ask..."

After 620 hours of not eating or drinking, I only read a bunch of boring data. Not to mention that Lu Yang is very tight now, even if he really has time, he will not suffer this.

What's more, in order to implement this algorithm, he had to be a human-stealing device himself, and he kept shooting the market for seven or eight hours on the trading software for seven or eight hours a day.

Who can withstand this?

Training your hand speed is even more irritating!

I can't let me kidnap a slave and bind it to Chenxi using the brain-computer interface, and then let this tool help me be a human scanner and a human disk staring device...

etc……

Toolman?!

Suddenly, a sudden flash of inspiration in Lu Yang's mind!

"Normal people" cannot be on standby on trading software 24 hours a day, but "tool people" can do it!

Thinking of this, Lu Yang immediately took out his laptop from his backpack and turned on the stock and futures trading software.

He glanced around and repeatedly confirmed that no one noticed the most hidden corner of the coffee house where he was.

With the help of his laptop screen, Lu Yang secretly took out the small eight-claw robot he recycled from his schoolbag from the "garbage heap" of the Gaoshan Tribe!

"Chenxi, can you control this robot to use a computer now?"

"No problem!"

As soon as Chenxi finished speaking, the eight-claw robot lying on the laptop keyboard emitted a faint white light.

Immediately afterwards, the robot stood up with his eight legs!

After slightly adjusting his posture, the robot supported his body with six legs, then flexibly operated the mouse with two front legs, and opened and closed several web pages casually.

"How about it, can you collect the information displayed on my laptop through this robot now?"

“You can…the observation efficiency is 1200% higher than through your naked eyes”

Success!

This may be the first time in the history of human civilization!

It may also be the first time in the history of the Galaxy Federation!

Lu Yang successfully achieved the feat of "user commanding one machine to operate the third machine through another machine to search information online"!

The purpose of the experiment has been achieved. Lu Yang did not want others to discover the secret of the Eight-Clawed Robot, so he quickly ordered Chenxi to interrupt the remote connection with it.

"What is the power consumption level when you operate this little robot just now?"

“Average energy consumption is 10.5 kW”

"It's 252 kWh per day, and it's nearly 8,000 kWh a month. This is a little electric tiger!"

"If you only need to meet the three basic requirements of browsing the computer screen, operating the mouse, and establishing real-time connection with the unit, after turning off other unnecessary functions, the power consumption of the robot can be reduced to 4 kilowatts at a minimum."

Lu Yangmo calculated that although the 2,880 kWh of electricity per month has exceeded the average household electricity consumption, it is still within his acceptance range.

At present, the body of Chenxi host is being kept by Lu Yang at home, and is charging on the community power grid in a better attitude. Now, after calculating, the charging is just enough for the small robot to operate.

"If you give this little robot full of power to you, how long will it take to develop an achievable, world-class quantitative trading algorithm?"

"Under the premise that all computers are equipped with professional-grade trading software, if only one computer is used for small reconnaissance robots, it will take about 18 days, and if it is used with three computers, it will only take about 6 days."

"What if I had four computers?"

"It will take about 6 days!"

"What is this principle?" Lu Yangqi said, "The Galaxy Federation, which is highly regarded in the universe, has created a reconnaissance robot and advanced artificial intelligence that can only operate at most three backward Earth laptops at the same time?"

"The small reconnaissance robot has only eight legs, and operating more computers at the same time will cause the reconnaissance robot to fall."

puff!

Lu Yang almost sprayed a sip of coffee.

I didn't expect that the high-tech of the Galactic Federation would fall for such a simple and unpretentious reason...

"If it is in a gravity-free environment in space, the machine can theoretically operate four Earth laptops at the same time."
Chapter completed!
