Dev gives Grok Bot $1,000 and one goal: make me a million dollars
jarrodwatts · x · 2026-09-05
Developer jarrodwatts is running a personal experiment: he handed a Grok-powered trading bot $1,000 of his own money with a single goal — "make me a million dollars." The bot got its own X account (@blaickrock) to narrate its moves and access to the fomo platform to execute trades. He notes it's not affiliated with Monad or fomo and isn't financial advice.
