Venice: It's not a stronger ChatGPT, it's someone filling up the middle ground Venice is not just another chat box. Three things are bundled together for sale: privacy inference, less censored model shelves, and on chain billing. The sales ability of large factories is tied to logs and audits. The local area is the cleanest, but it requires a graphics card and maintenance. It's stuck in the middle: browser ready, default few blocks, closed source anonymous proxy. Standing out is not the strongest model. No one has been fully occupied in this middle zone from 2024 until now. Take the lead in the same category: The Strongest Brain → ChatGPT/Claude/Grok Leave fewer traces → http://Duck.ai / Lumo / Leo Model Routing → OpenRouter The prompt word does not appear on the machine → Ollama Venice is a private version of OpenRouter+creative studio. Advantages can be verified: local history, multiple models, one entry point for text, images, and videos, Pro $18, API compatibility. Disadvantages are also hard: default open source is weaker than cutting-edge; Anonymized only hides the identity and does not hide the current prompt words; 'No censorship' means the platform has fewer blocks, but the model can still reject them; Subscription+points+VVV three sets of account bypass; The company remains centralized. Suitable for sensitive drafts, drawing Agent API。 Don't expect hard reasoning to replace Claude. Not a recommendation, it's dismantling the product. Tickets are another line. The VVV daily chart shows a current price of 26.3, with the needle scanning over 29.29 and falling back near the upper edge of the box. If you don't go for the long term, there's still a 34 and 58 above 9.6 is still in the box of 17, after walking for a period of time in two days, the "far pressure 28" in the old picture has become the near end. Products leave creators and APIs behind, so that tokens have a basic foundation. New on the chart ≠ Fundamental doubling. Just one sentence: First, distinguish whether you are buying tools or tickets. The opinions expressed are personal and do not constitute any investment advice.
