A viral thread claims a 19-year-old Japanese student built an arbitrage trading bot with Claude Code in 48 hours: reportedly $6,732 profit the first night from $68 starting capital, and $750K total so far—unverified and likely exaggerated.
As described, the bot scans 50+ markets, syncs live Binance BTC data every second, and executes on mispricings before humans react, running 24/7 with an iPad as a multi-market monitor.
