Today, let's talk about the black hearted Ai tokens on the market, including arbitrability, but it is not recommended to participate too much What are the common tricks of the first unscrupulous AI transfer station? How can users avoid unscrupulous transit stations? How to do the transfer station business in a relatively formal way? Everyone knows that the Ai token transfer station is still in a gray area at present, and there is no official manufacturer or relevant government regulatory agency to clearly express that it is compliant. Therefore, whether to use it as a user or operate it as a side business, there are certain risks, which may cause financial losses and even legal consequences. Please be cautious and research before making a decision. Next, I will talk to you about some common tricks of unscrupulous transfer stations. This is just a popular science explanation for lightning protection purposes. It is absolutely not recommended that you try any of these methods. Do not do anything illegal, do not do anything illegal, and do not do anything illegal!!! Say important things three times The intermediary station is actually very simple in essence. It sets up a layer of proxy between the user's client, which is your Claude Code, your OpenCode, and the model company's service. The context of all prompt words sent by the user will be forwarded to the upstream model service provider API through this intermediary station, and the response result will also be returned to the end user through this intermediary station. It's actually that simple. So why do users use these intermediary stations, In fact, the fundamental demand is one thing, which is that the price is cheap and the quantity is sufficient. This is definitely because these intermediary stations: firstly, they have a price advantage, and secondly, the limit of the quota is more relaxed than the official API. Simply put, it is the same as some VPN traffic proxy services that people have used before, and API token intermediary stations also have some common tricks First of all, the first one is about adding water. What does it mean to add water? It's easy to understand. It means using weaker models to respond to your request. On the surface, the model you specify, such as opus4.7, will be silently forwarded and parameter adjusted by this intermediary station behind the scenes, changing it to models from different suppliers such as Sonnet or Haiku. For example, if I directly use MiniMax or Kimi for you, then add water to it. Of course, the cost of the weaker model is lower, and on the other hand, it charges you for the more powerful model, so its profit will be higher. This is the first type. The second option is to do invisible flow limiting. Invisible flow limiting means that these intermediary stations will multiply your actual usage by a ratio in the background to calculate your limit flow. For example, if you really use a token of 1 million, they will silently multiply it by 1.2 behind your back. This means that you have already used 1.2 million in the background, but you have only spent 1 million in tokens. Of course, the more severe the discount, the higher the profit behind it. The third type is even darker. They will use illegal means to obtain some information about their identity documents, and then use this document information to continuously register new accounts with large model companies. They will first use a real card to bind it, and immediately switch to this fake card after binding. Then, they will use an account that cannot actually use a credit card to continuously exploit the model manufacturer's wool. When the account needs to be billed and settled, the model manufacturer will find that your actual credit card cannot pay the fee. At this point, it is already too late. They will scrap this and then use new documents to register a new account. This cycle continues to overdraw the post payment limit. This is pure. Naked illegal prostitution. The fourth trick is to resell user data, because as a intermediary station, it can collect all user questions and some agent tools. It can also send user privacy memory data as context, and these information may be collected by the intermediary station in the form of logs. Then, through some simple classification and recognition algorithms, such as classifying user problems according to industry levels, related to medical health, beauty, and financial investment, after classifying user data into industries, there will naturally be downstream data collectors who will buy these data at high prices, and even some model companies will buy them at high prices to train them. Model. Then there is another trick, which is "carpooling". Everyone must know or be familiar with it, for example, Netflix accounts or some Steam accounts have this carpooling situation. The same situation can also occur in the field of token transfer stations. Carpooling can be used to allow users to use more advanced models with lower payment thresholds. Of course, the amount is definitely lower, but at least they can use stronger models. For example, Max's subscription is $200, so I only need to find 4-5 users to divide it, and that person is $40-50, which is much less. Although the cost is reduced, the amount will also be discounted. If there are more conscientious technical experts, they will... Set credit limits for carpooling users in his backend, for example, the official limit is 10 million yoken Every 5 hours, a total of two people carpool, so I'll give you a 5-hour limit of 5 million yuan per person. This is relatively reasonable, at least you won't be squeezed into your quota by users with high usage, Finally, there is another way to carry out arbitrage in this region. For example, he will recharge the registered accounts in batches from Türkiye Japan and some small countries in Southeast Asia, because the currencies of these countries will have some exchange rate differences, which is his profit. Alright, that's all for today's AI knowledge popularization. We will continue to share some AI knowledge and detailed tutorials on how to build a "transit station" with you in the future!
