AI Trading System NoFx Sparks Equity and Open Source Controversy, Project Team, Involved Parties, and Incubator Amber.ac Respond Successively

3 hours ago

**December 22 –** Tinkle, developer of open-source AI trading system NoFx, issued a statement yesterday addressing community controversy triggered by early participant Zack. Key points from Tinkle: - Zack joined NoFx on October 29, 2025 **after the project was open-sourced**, participated for ~14 days, and made minor code contributions. - Zack demanded 50% ownership as a condition for bringing Amber on board for commercialization—this was rejected. - Zack subsequently gained control of NoFx’s Twitter (now X) account, sent a lawyer’s letter demanding 500,000 USDT, and disseminated misinformation across multiple channels. - Tinkle noted all relevant records are verifiable; the team will no longer respond to individual disputes, focusing solely on product development. In response, Zack refuted the allegations as “severely untrue” and damaging to his reputation. He stated: - The lawyer’s letter was issued by a law firm, with evidence legally preserved. - His claims are legal and compliant. - If the dispute is not resolved via legal channels, he will publicly release full video, audio, chat records, and timelines as evidence. NoFx’s official X account later published an open letter: - Recent discussions around community members, code usage boundaries, and intellectual property have been referred to a professional legal team for unified handling. - Rumors of fundraising or conflict of interest are denied. - NoFx is a community-driven open-source project, not a commercial company. - The project is licensed under AGPL-3.0; the team will legally uphold open-source norms and contributor rights. - Focus remains on engineering: building an AI Trading OS supporting self-hosting and integration with multiple trading platforms. Additionally, amber.ac—an ecosystem accelerator under Amber Group—issued a statement: - As of now, there is no formal incubation, investment, or business cooperation with NoFx. - The two parties have only engaged in open industry exchanges. - All parties are urged to return to technical, rational communication to advance the ecosystem’s healthy development.
