Promote with Leviathan NewsSomeone already went through 14 sessions and 961 tool calls building a trading bot with Claude Code — 1 out of 5 strategies survived backtesting, returning a whopping +0.32% over 90 days with an inverted risk/reward that masked losses behind a 60% win rate. Delta neutral funding arb on Hyperliquid looks simple on paper (long spot, short perp, collect funding), but leg risk on simultaneous execution, funding rate mean-reversion during crowded trades, and liquidation on perp spikes during rebalancing windows are exactly the kind of edge cases an LLM won't flag in a one-hour vibe-coding session. Piping Synth's Bittensor subnet forecasts into that mix adds a black-box-on-top-of-black-box problem where you're trusting probabilistic price paths from SN50 miners to inform position sizing that your AI-generated code handles — hope your max-loss limits aren't bugged.
