OpenClaw is an extremely popular open-source personal AI assistant / autonomous agent project that exploded in popularity in late 2025 / early 2026.
It's developed by Peter Steinberger (known on X/Twitter as @steipete, formerly co-founder of PSPDFKit).
Quick History & Naming
- Originally released in November 2025 as Clawdbot (a pun referencing Anthropic's Claude model + "bot").
- Renamed to Moltbot briefly around January 2026 (after Anthropic reportedly asked to change the name).
- Rebranded to OpenClaw at the end of January 2026.
- The project went extremely viral on GitHub, reportedly reaching over 100,000–200,000 stars in record time, making it one of the fastest-growing open-source AI projects ever.
The creator (Peter) eventually joined OpenAI in February 2026 to work on agents more broadly, while moving OpenClaw governance toward an independent foundation to keep it open-source and community-driven.
What does OpenClaw actually do?
It's not just another chatbot. It's designed to be a proactive, autonomous personal AI agent that lives on your own hardware (local-first / self-hosted) and can actually perform real actions.
Key characteristics:
- Runs on your machine (Linux, macOS, Windows, old laptops, VPS, etc.)
- Connects to messaging apps you already use: WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal, Google Chat, and more
- You chat with it there → it can respond and execute tasks
- Bring-your-own-model: works with Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini, Grok, local LLMs (via Ollama / LM Studio / etc.), or basically any LLM with an API
- Has long-term memory across conversations
- Can use "skills" (plugins/tools) that let it do real things
Popular real-world examples of what people use it for
- Inbox zero: read, summarize, reply to emails
- Calendar management: schedule meetings, check conflicts
- Flight/hotel check-ins, booking assistance
- File & desktop automation (with screen control or file access)
- Code-related tasks (review PRs, write code, interact with GitHub)
- Personal finance summaries, portfolio monitoring
- Autonomous "coworker" experiments (some people claim it earned simulated or small real money doing freelance-style tasks)
- Crypto trading bots, research agents, etc. (community extensions)
Technical bits
- Core implemented in TypeScript + some Swift parts
- Has a gateway architecture for connecting messaging services
- Very extensible: community creates tons of skills/workflows
- Can run entirely locally with local models for privacy, or use cloud LLMs
Ecosystem & hype (as of March 2026)
- NVIDIA released NemoClaw — optimized stack to run OpenClaw easily on RTX GPUs, DGX systems, etc.
- AWS Lightsail, many VPS providers, and cloud providers offer one-click / easy deployment images
- Massive buzz in China (people literally lining up to install it, subsidies in some cities, "raise a lobster" meme — because the logo is a lobster 🦞)
- Forks & inspired projects: IronClaw (Rust, security-focused), GitClaw (runs via GitHub Actions only), WebClaw, etc.
- Some controversy: debates about whether the virality was partly manufactured hype, security risks of giving an agent real tool access, etc.
In short: OpenClaw is the breakout open-source personal AI agent framework of early 2026 — the one that made "having your own always-on AI lobster assistant in Telegram/WhatsApp" feel real and accessible to normal people.

If you're into self-hosted AI agents or just want an AI that does stuff instead of just talking, it's currently one of the most interesting projects in that space. 🦞

Several large companies' artificial intelligence have made good suggestions. Keep refining, keep upgrading. Today I simulated a few 15-minute lines with an 80% win rate, but there is a chance of guessing incorrectly because the signals still have a delay. After refining, I'll do a live practical demonstration!

It's been several days since my last post—I almost gave up. Honestly, no one's paying attention anyway, haha. Just making a daily log.
Since watching an interview with Dell's CTO, I suddenly realized that what I've been doing is actually just an AI automation script. As the Dell CTO put it, it's still a 'baby AI' or a 'fake agent'. Why? Because we're still 'hardcoding logic'—this isn't an Agent, it's just an 'automated script with some AI features'.
So now I have a new understanding of AI. I've decided to build an 'AI Quant Lifeform': the strategy team quantifies the strategies, the risk control and execution teams carry them out, and the optimization team (using AI + NotebookLM) reads the generated data records and improves them, then automatically updates the system—creating a self-upgrading, autonomous quant lifeform. That's true AI quant!

In recent months, a growing number of users have reported losing money to a deceptive platform called Build AI, a site that claims to let users “create AI apps and earn passive income.” While it presents itself as an innovative tech project, Build AI is rapidly being exposed as a well-structured scam.

🧠 The Trick:
Build AI uses a fake business model to attract victims. They promise that by creating “AI tools” or “apps,” users can earn daily profits or passive income. In reality:
The AI builder interface is just a front — nothing is actually deployed or used by real clients.
Fake dashboards show fabricated traffic, income stats, and “AI app views” to create trust.
Users are encouraged to deposit or upgrade plans to “increase app reach” — that’s where the scam begins.
💸 The Hook:

They start with free access to gain user confidence, then introduce premium packages costing anywhere from $20 to $500, claiming that paid users will earn higher returns. After payment, most users see no earnings, and withdrawals are blocked or “under review” indefinitely.

🕵️ The Manipulation:

They use social media influencers (often fake accounts or paid promotions) to show “proof of earnings.”

Telegram groups and Discord servers are filled with fake users posting fake success screenshots.

AI branding and buzzwords like “OpenAI,” “GPT,” and “automation” are used to appear legitimate.
🚫 The Reality:

Once enough users deposit, the platform disappears overnight — website down, support gone, and community channels deleted. Victims are left without any refund options.

⚠️ Key Signs of the Scam:

1. Promises of “passive AI income” for no real work.
2. No registered company information or verifiable team.
3. Withdrawal delays or sudden “account reviews.”
4. Fake social proof and identical testimonials.
🧩 Final Warning:
Build AI is not an earning platform — it’s a psychological trick designed to exploit the global AI hype.
Always verify before investing in any “AI income” site. Real AI projects don’t promise daily profits or require upfront deposits.

After tossing and turning for a night, we finally officially start the testing phase. However, the current signal algorithm should be relatively rough. But that's okay, if the indicators are wrong, we will make adjustments. The backtest we have shows a monthly profit of 7%. Although it's not high, we are pursuing stability, and at least it is profitable. Now, with our comprehensive news network + on-chain whales + KOL public opinion system, I believe our profits will be even higher!
From this moment on, we will start by using $100 to record and test real data, and we will do a live broadcast.
