Developers can also move between rapid-response and longer-term projects depending on their interests and where they can contribute most effectively.
But more capacity does not mean Cubeia has eliminated bottlenecks. With AI agents producing several streams of work in parallel, the company is still trying to find the right balance of how much work an individual can manage and review.
“The bottleneck becomes the person reviewing everything. That does not mean we never review the code itself. For sensitive or critical parts of the system, we still look more closely at the implementation, particularly from an architecture, performance, security and reliability perspective. But we no longer apply that level of manual code review to everything.” Grenstad says.
How to play Shivering Strings
Many players use a fixed cash-out target, such as 1.5x or 2x, and exit automatically every round. This removes emotion from the decision and keeps losses predictable.
The outcome of each round is determined by a provably fair system, which means every result can be independently verified. This transparency is part of why the format caught on so quickly.
As with any game, the house edge is real and the mathematics always favours the operator over time. Treat crash games as short bursts of entertainment rather than a strategy for steady income.
