In this article, we'll discuss information about the AutoMatic Network project and AUMI token.
What is AutoMatic?
AutoMatic is a yield aggregator on the Polygon Chain. It uses an auto-compounding function to increase returns on yield farms. Once set, the protocol runs itself, without the need for further attention from the investor.
How does it work?
Investors purchase tokens or create liquidity and place it into an AutoMatic pool. The pool then collects the rewards, reinvests them, and grows the value placed in the pool. This compounding creates an optimal growth curve that is next to impossible to achieve manually.
What are the risks?
Any cryptocurrency investment carries risk. Yield farming does not guarantee profitable returns. Only invest what you can afford to lose, and do your own research before making any financial decisions.
Why Use Automatic?
Less Time, More Compounding
Maximizing yield on farming pools can be a time-consuming task. Frequent compounding leads to the best yields, as farmers start earning on rewards immediately. The problem in this approach comes in two parts: time and gas. Optimized yields take frequent attention to your account. Frequent compounding incurs a significant amount of gas fees. By using the protocol to handle compounding, AutoMatic saves you time. By combining the entire pool into a single transaction, AutoMatic uses far less gas than would be needed to handle every account individually.
Leverage Compound Interest
AutoMatic Pools reward investors for their commitment to an investment. By autocompounding rewards back into the liquidity pair or single stake initially invested, rewards grow exponentially. This type of growth is extremely powerful as time passes, allowing for returns far in excess of what can be gained by simply using the simple APY of a standard yield farming pool.
The AUMI Token
The AUMI token is the core of the AutoMatic ecosystem. The token can either be purchased and staked, or earned as a reward from various pools. For every 10 Matic earned through performance fees, 50 AUMI will be minted. AUMI buys and sells are subject to an adjustable tax of 0-10% on trading that will be converted to WMATIC, which will fund the rewards for The Vault.
Total Supply: 100,000 AUMI
Circulating Supply: 75,000 AUMI
Governance
AUMI token holders will control the decision making and will receive most of the farm performance fee profits. Governance weight is determined by the amount of AUMI you have in the The Vault. The more AUMI you have in the Vault, the more influence you will have in the ecosystem and the future direction of the project.
Pool Types
Pools are investment instruments that employ specific sets of strategies for yield farming. They make use of automation to continually invest and reinvest deposited funds to achieve high levels of compounded interest. In pools, you earn more of the asset you stake in it regardless if this is a liquidity pool (LP) token or a single asset. For example, pools where one can stake QUICK-MATIC LP will result in more QUICK-MATIC LP or QUICK over time, effectively growing your share in the pool and thus allowing for more and more rewards over time. All pools have a 30% performance fee and a 0.5% withdrawal fee for withdrawals in less than 72 hours from the time of staking. These fees will be less than the opportunity and gas cost of attempting to replicate the growth curve as an individual. Fees will be used as rewards for AUMI holders.
The Vault
AUMI rewards from single-asset pools and LP pools are deposited into The Vault. The Vault has a three month penalty period for deposits, grouped by week. After the three month period has elapsed, funds for that week are available for withdrawal at no penalty. Funds can be withdrawn at any time before the three months have elapsed with a 50% penalty. Penalty fees are burned, creating a deflationary aspect to the protocol. Funds in The Vault continue to earn rewards while they are left unclaimed, as well as providing weight for governance purposes.
Single-asset Pools
Single-asset pools are the simplest form of yield farming. Users stake their tokens in the pool, and the protocol handles everything else. AutoMatic will compound the value investors put in at an optimal rate to ensure the best rewards.
Liquidity Pools
Liquidity pools (LP) provide further options for farmers. These are a slightly more complex form of investing, and provide both more opportunities for growth and higher risk.
To create LP and get LP tokens, users will take two assets and add them to the larger pool of liquidity that underlies every Automated Market Maker (AMM). AMMs such as Quickswap on the Polygon Chain, Pangolin on the Avalanche Chain, or PancakeSwap on the Binance Smart Chain provide anyone the chance to exchange their tokens by using the liquidity pools provided by teams and investors.
Liquidity pools accept and maintain fixed value ratios of assets, typically 50-50 but other ratios such as 30-70, 20-80, or more complex multiasset pools at any ratio the designer wishes. Investors do not get to choose the ratio at which they invest; this is fixed by the pool at the time of its creation.
AutoMatic LP pools come in a variety of options and all autocompound rewards. Rewards come in two types: the specific reward from the pool (such as more LP, Quick, or AUMI) and AUMI. LP rewards and specific token rewards are available immediately, but AUMI rewards are placed into The Vault. The Vault is described in the previous section.
Impermanent Loss
Impermanent loss is a risk carried in LP pools. The short version is that if one part of a pair drastically changes value relative to the other parts, an investor may experience higher loss or lower gains on the assets held. This loss is not locked in unless an investor breaks the liquidity pair in the midst of the volatile period. To balance the larger risk in these kinds of farms, investors are rewarded in both higher APR and a portion of the transaction fees on the assets in the pair. The goal of any investor is a return that exceeds any impermanent loss as well as exceeding the returns available on single asset farms or simply holding the underlying assets. AutoMatic can help with this through continuous reinvestment of rewards and optimal yields based on this approach.
How and Where to Buy AUMI token?
AUMI has been listed on a number of crypto exchanges, unlike other main cryptocurrencies, it cannot be directly purchased with fiats money. However, You can still easily buy this coin by first buying Bitcoin, ETH, USDT, BNB from any large exchanges and then transfer to the exchange that offers to trade this coin, in this guide article we will walk you through in detail the steps to buy AUMI token.
You will have to first buy one of the major cryptocurrencies, usually either Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Tether (USDT), Binance (BNB)…
We will use Binance Exchange here as it is one of the largest crypto exchanges that accept fiat deposits.
Binance is a popular cryptocurrency exchange which was started in China but then moved their headquarters to the crypto-friendly Island of Malta in the EU. Binance is popular for its crypto to crypto exchange services. Binance exploded onto the scene in the mania of 2017 and has since gone on to become the top crypto exchange in the world.

WordsCounted
We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.
-- Oscar Wilde
WordsCounted is a Ruby NLP (natural language processor). WordsCounted lets you implement powerful tokensation strategies with a very flexible tokeniser class.
["Bayrūt"]
and not ["Bayr", "ū", "t"]
, for example.Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'words_counted'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install words_counted
Pass in a string or a file path, and an optional filter and/or regexp.
counter = WordsCounted.count(
"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars."
)
# Using a file
counter = WordsCounted.from_file("path/or/url/to/my/file.txt")
.count
and .from_file
are convenience methods that take an input, tokenise it, and return an instance of WordsCounted::Counter
initialized with the tokens. The WordsCounted::Tokeniser
and WordsCounted::Counter
classes can be used alone, however.
WordsCounted.count(input, options = {})
Tokenises input and initializes a WordsCounted::Counter
object with the resulting tokens.
counter = WordsCounted.count("Hello Beirut!")
Accepts two options: exclude
and regexp
. See Excluding tokens from the analyser and Passing in a custom regexp respectively.
WordsCounted.from_file(path, options = {})
Reads and tokenises a file, and initializes a WordsCounted::Counter
object with the resulting tokens.
counter = WordsCounted.from_file("hello_beirut.txt")
Accepts the same options as .count
.
The tokeniser allows you to tokenise text in a variety of ways. You can pass in your own rules for tokenisation, and apply a powerful filter with any combination of rules as long as they can boil down into a lambda.
Out of the box the tokeniser includes only alpha chars. Hyphenated tokens and tokens with apostrophes are considered a single token.
#tokenise([pattern: TOKEN_REGEXP, exclude: nil])
tokeniser = WordsCounted::Tokeniser.new("Hello Beirut!").tokenise
# With `exclude`
tokeniser = WordsCounted::Tokeniser.new("Hello Beirut!").tokenise(exclude: "hello")
# With `pattern`
tokeniser = WordsCounted::Tokeniser.new("I <3 Beirut!").tokenise(pattern: /[a-z]/i)
See Excluding tokens from the analyser and Passing in a custom regexp for more information.
The WordsCounted::Counter
class allows you to collect various statistics from an array of tokens.
#token_count
Returns the token count of a given string.
counter.token_count #=> 15
#token_frequency
Returns a sorted (unstable) two-dimensional array where each element is a token and its frequency. The array is sorted by frequency in descending order.
counter.token_frequency
[
["the", 2],
["are", 2],
["we", 1],
# ...
["all", 1]
]
#most_frequent_tokens
Returns a hash where each key-value pair is a token and its frequency.
counter.most_frequent_tokens
{ "are" => 2, "the" => 2 }
#token_lengths
Returns a sorted (unstable) two-dimentional array where each element contains a token and its length. The array is sorted by length in descending order.
counter.token_lengths
[
["looking", 7],
["gutter", 6],
["stars", 5],
# ...
["in", 2]
]
#longest_tokens
Returns a hash where each key-value pair is a token and its length.
counter.longest_tokens
{ "looking" => 7 }
#token_density([ precision: 2 ])
Returns a sorted (unstable) two-dimentional array where each element contains a token and its density as a float, rounded to a precision of two. The array is sorted by density in descending order. It accepts a precision
argument, which must be a float.
counter.token_density
[
["are", 0.13],
["the", 0.13],
["but", 0.07 ],
# ...
["we", 0.07 ]
]
#char_count
Returns the char count of tokens.
counter.char_count #=> 76
#average_chars_per_token([ precision: 2 ])
Returns the average char count per token rounded to two decimal places. Accepts a precision argument which defaults to two. Precision must be a float.
counter.average_chars_per_token #=> 4
#uniq_token_count
Returns the number of unique tokens.
counter.uniq_token_count #=> 13
You can exclude anything you want from the input by passing the exclude
option. The exclude option accepts a variety of filters and is extremely flexible.
:odd?
.tokeniser =
WordsCounted::Tokeniser.new(
"Magnificent! That was magnificent, Trevor."
)
# Using a string
tokeniser.tokenise(exclude: "was magnificent")
# => ["that", "trevor"]
# Using a regular expression
tokeniser.tokenise(exclude: /trevor/)
# => ["magnificent", "that", "was", "magnificent"]
# Using a lambda
tokeniser.tokenise(exclude: ->(t) { t.length < 4 })
# => ["magnificent", "that", "magnificent", "trevor"]
# Using symbol
tokeniser = WordsCounted::Tokeniser.new("Hello! محمد")
tokeniser.tokenise(exclude: :ascii_only?)
# => ["محمد"]
# Using an array
tokeniser = WordsCounted::Tokeniser.new(
"Hello! اسماءنا هي محمد، كارولينا، سامي، وداني"
)
tokeniser.tokenise(
exclude: [:ascii_only?, /محمد/, ->(t) { t.length > 6}, "و"]
)
# => ["هي", "سامي", "وداني"]
The default regexp accounts for letters, hyphenated tokens, and apostrophes. This means twenty-one is treated as one token. So is Mohamad's.
/[\p{Alpha}\-']+/
You can pass your own criteria as a Ruby regular expression to split your string as desired.
For example, if you wanted to include numbers, you can override the regular expression:
counter = WordsCounted.count("Numbers 1, 2, and 3", pattern: /[\p{Alnum}\-']+/)
counter.tokens
#=> ["numbers", "1", "2", "and", "3"]
Use the from_file
method to open files. from_file
accepts the same options as .count
. The file path can be a URL.
counter = WordsCounted.from_file("url/or/path/to/file.text")
A hyphen used in leu of an em or en dash will form part of the token. This affects the tokeniser algorithm.
counter = WordsCounted.count("How do you do?-you are well, I see.")
counter.token_frequency
[
["do", 2],
["how", 1],
["you", 1],
["-you", 1], # WTF, mate!
["are", 1],
# ...
]
In this example -you
and you
are separate tokens. Also, the tokeniser does not include numbers by default. Remember that you can pass your own regular expression if the default behaviour does not fit your needs.
The program will normalise (downcase) all incoming strings for consistency and filters.
def self.from_url
# open url and send string here after removing html
end

SafeMoon is a decentralized finance (DeFi) token. This token consists of RFI tokenomics and auto-liquidity generating protocol. A DeFi token like SafeMoon has reached the mainstream standards under the Binance Smart Chain. Its success and popularity have been immense, thus, making the majority of the business firms adopt this style of cryptocurrency as an alternative.
A DeFi token like SafeMoon is almost similar to the other crypto-token, but the only difference being that it charges a 10% transaction fee from the users who sell their tokens, in which 5% of the fee is distributed to the remaining SafeMoon owners. This feature rewards the owners for holding onto their tokens.

Talking about inspiration in the networking industry, nothing more than Autonomous Driving Network (ADN). You may hear about this and wondering what this is about, and does it have anything to do with autonomous driving vehicles? Your guess is right; the ADN concept is derived from or inspired by the rapid development of the autonomous driving car in recent years.
Driverless Car of the Future, the advertisement for “America’s Electric Light and Power Companies,” Saturday Evening Post, the 1950s.
The vision of autonomous driving has been around for more than 70 years. But engineers continuously make attempts to achieve the idea without too much success. The concept stayed as a fiction for a long time. In 2004, the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Administration (DARPA) organized the Grand Challenge for autonomous vehicles for teams to compete for the grand prize of $1 million. I remembered watching TV and saw those competing vehicles, behaved like driven by drunk man, had a really tough time to drive by itself. I thought that autonomous driving vision would still have a long way to go. To my surprise, the next year, 2005, Stanford University’s vehicles autonomously drove 131 miles in California’s Mojave desert without a scratch and took the $1 million Grand Challenge prize. How was that possible? Later I learned that the secret ingredient to make this possible was using the latest ML (Machine Learning) enabled AI (Artificial Intelligent ) technology.
Since then, AI technologies advanced rapidly and been implemented in all verticals. Around the 2016 time frame, the concept of Autonomous Driving Network started to emerge by combining AI and network to achieve network operational autonomy. The automation concept is nothing new in the networking industry; network operations are continually being automated here and there. But this time, ADN is beyond automating mundane tasks; it reaches a whole new level. With the help of AI technologies and other critical ingredients advancement like SDN (Software Defined Network), autonomous networking has a great chance from a vision to future reality.
In this article, we will examine some critical components of the ADN, current landscape, and factors that are important for ADN to be a success.
At the current stage, there are different terminologies to describe ADN vision by various organizations.
Even though slightly different terminologies, the industry is moving towards some common terms and consensus called autonomous networks, e.g. TMF, ETSI, ITU-T, GSMA. The core vision includes business and network aspects. The autonomous network delivers the “hyper-loop” from business requirements all the way to network and device layers.
On the network layer, it contains the below critical aspects:
On top of those, these capabilities need to be across multiple services, multiple domains, and the entire lifecycle(TMF, 2019).
No doubt, this is the most ambitious goal that the networking industry has ever aimed at. It has been described as the “end-state” and“ultimate goal” of networking evolution. This is not just a vision on PPT, the networking industry already on the move toward the goal.
David Wang, Huawei’s Executive Director of the Board and President of Products & Solutions, said in his 2018 Ultra-Broadband Forum(UBBF) keynote speech. (David W. 2018):
“In a fully connected and intelligent era, autonomous driving is becoming a reality. Industries like automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing are modernizing and renewing themselves by introducing autonomous technologies. However, the telecom sector is facing a major structural problem: Networks are growing year by year, but OPEX is growing faster than revenue. What’s more, it takes 100 times more effort for telecom operators to maintain their networks than OTT players. Therefore, it’s imperative that telecom operators build autonomous driving networks.”
Juniper CEO Rami Rahim said in his keynote at the company’s virtual AI event: (CRN, 2020)
“The goal now is a self-driving network. The call to action is to embrace the change. We can all benefit from putting more time into higher-layer activities, like keeping distributors out of the business. The future, I truly believe, is about getting the network out of the way. It is time for the infrastructure to take a back seat to the self-driving network.”
If you asked me this question 15 years ago, my answer would be “no chance” as I could not imagine an autonomous driving vehicle was possible then. But now, the vision is not far-fetch anymore not only because of ML/AI technology rapid advancement but other key building blocks are made significant progress, just name a few key building blocks:
#network-automation #autonomous-network #ai-in-network #self-driving-network #neural-networks
