ElizaOS founder accuses daos.fun founder of profiting $6.6 million through insider trading with ai16z

ElizaOS founder Shaw accused daos.fun founder baoskee of insider trading during the renaming and migration process of the ai16z project, claiming that he profited approximately $6.6 million by selling ai16z. Shaw stated that in June 2025, the project team promised to launch Snapshot voting so that the community could decide whether to rename the project, after a16z had requested a name change to avoid trademark disputes.Shaw claimed that, despite the voting mechanism not being launched as promised, baoskee sold all ai16z in the daos.fun execution wallet after being aware of the pressure to rename and the subsequent migration arrangements, and continued to sell before the project migrated to elizaOS, causing the token price to drop. Shaw believes that baoskee had information that other holders did not possess at that time. In response, baoskee denied the allegations, stating that the Snapshot voting had actually been launched, and that daos.fun had also self-funded to increase and lock over $1 million in ai16z liquidity. He also countered that Shaw had serious issues regarding project operations, token migration, and the use of development funds. Currently, there are significant discrepancies between the two parties' statements, and Shaw indicated that he would attach relevant Solscan on-chain records at the end of the article.

Insiders: DeepMind founder Hassabis is considering leaving Google, as Google's management is concerned about a sharp drop in stock prices and has postponed his departure

Citrini analyst Jukan shared content on platform X stating that industry insiders reported that Google DeepMind co-founder Demis Hassabis had previously planned to leave simultaneously with another co-founder, David Silver. However, Google management was concerned that this news could trigger a significant drop in stock prices, so they hoped to delay his departure. Reports indicate that after Google announced related adjustments, the company's stock did indeed decline. Ultimately, Hassabis was persuaded to take on the role of chairman of DeepMind to help facilitate a smooth transition and create space for a more appropriate departure from Google in the future.It is reported that as David Silver shifts to founding Ineffable Intelligence and John Jumper joins Anthropic, the core AI research and development force at DeepMind is undergoing changes. Some insiders believe that the center of gravity for AI model development at Google has now shifted more towards the Bay Area, leading to a decline in the importance of DeepMind. Internally, Google is focusing on the large language model Gemini to catch up with OpenAI and Anthropic. Hassabis's adjustment reflects a long-standing strategic contradiction within Google: researchers are more focused on long-term scientific breakthroughs, while the commercial team is more concerned with AI products that can be quickly commercialized to drive revenue and stock price growth. Market predictions suggest that Hassabis may leave Google within a year and could potentially start a new venture.
