AI Trading System NoFx Sparks Equity and Open Source Controversy, Project Team, Involved Parties, and Incubator Amber.ac Respond Successively
BlockBeats News, December 22, Open Source AI Trading System NoFx developer Tinkle yesterday issued a statement on the community controversy sparked by early project participant Zack, stating that Zack joined the project on October 29, 2025, after the project was open-sourced, only participated for about 14 days and made a small contribution to the code. He then demanded 50% ownership as a condition to introduce Amber for commercialization, which was rejected. Subsequently, he took control of the project's Twitter account and demanded 500,000 USDT through a lawyer's letter while spreading false information across multiple channels. Tinkle stated that all relevant records are verifiable, and the team will no longer respond to individual disputes, focusing on product development.
In response, Zack issued a statement refuting the allegations, claiming that they are severely untrue and have damaged his personal reputation. The lawyer's letter was sent by a law firm, and evidence has been legally preserved. The related claims are legal and compliant. If the dispute cannot be resolved through legal channels, he will publicly release full video, audio, chat records, and timelines as evidence.
The official X account of NoFx subsequently released an open letter stating that recent discussions regarding community members, code usage boundaries, and intellectual property have been handed over to a professional legal team for unified handling. They denied rumors of fundraising, interest transmission, and emphasized that NoFx is a community-driven open-source project rather than a commercial company. The team also reiterated that the project is licensed under AGPL-3.0, and they will legally uphold open-source norms and contributor rights, focusing on returning to the engineering itself to build an AI Trading OS that supports self-hosting and multi-trading platform integration.
In addition, the ecosystem accelerator amber.ac under Amber Group also issued a statement, clearly stating that as of now, there is no formal incubation, investment, or business cooperation relationship with the NoFx project. Both parties have only engaged in open industry exchanges, urging all parties to return to technical and rational communication to promote the healthy development of the ecosystem.
