**1/** IMD as the starting point of every onchain AI experiment (audits, creation, research, questioning, decision, token launching, community bootstraping), a layer on top of blockchains, a new type of thing.
Spent a bit of time to look into the first Identity MD Hackathon projects that leverage IMD protocol to build and experiment on something creative, meaningful and interesting against my core IMD thesis
- IMD swarm reasoning oracle
- x402 agent task market
- p2p harness
- Distributed agentic ownership
- Agentic launchpad for everyone

ai makes building cheap
crypto lets us trust what gets built and coordinate around it
i think a lot of people are overlooking the opportunity in crypto AI
as ive argued before, scarcity is migrating upward through the ai stack
the cheaper and more interchangeable intelligence becomes, the more value shifts toward the infrastructure that makes it useful, reliable and economically accountable
the interesting part is that many of these emerging bottlenecks arent computational problems - theyre problems of incentives, coordination, verification and trust
and these are areas where crypto has genuine structural advantages
permissionless markets for allocating resources, economic incentives for producing useful information, collateral for enforcing accountability and verifiable records of performance
the opportunity isnt putting AI onchain for the sake of it
its using crypto to create markets around forms of value that were previously difficult to measure, price or exchange
the irony is that the commoditisation of ai models could be one of the strongest tailwinds for the right crypto infrastructure
intelligence becomes abundant, but the ability to establish what its worth, whether its reliable and who deserves to be paid for it becomes increasingly valuable

fear not the man who shills 1,000 tokens
fear the man who shills 1 token 1,000 times
entries for the IMD hackathon are closed, and it went way beyond what we expected
78 projects entered. hooks, vaults, games, stablecoins, AI agents, lending, art, most of them built and audited by the IMD swarm and live on chain
that’s a lot more than we planned for, and every entry deserves a real look. so the review is taking a bit longer than we said
we’ll spend the weekend going through all of them, and results and prizes will be announced early next week
sorry for the wait, and thank you to every builder who shipped. this ecosystem is building faster than anyone expected

next 10 days features:
- NFT launches (Taylor already did this but just testing and releasing testing)
- Improve the protocol so can just send any financial app idea and it will just work
- add the '/goal' feature where can use up to 10k agents at once for anything anyone wants
- wallet capabilities and onchain transactions for the agents so can interact with any protocol or be used for example to do cool experiments like swarm bundles, initial usage bootstrapping of protocols and other ideas I can't imagine

IMD as the starting point of every onchain AI experiment (audits, creation, research, questioning, decision, token launching, community bootstraping)
We offer the cheapest inference in the world rn (thanks to redarded pepe crypto incentives) but not right time to explain this as first bugs fixing, and pepes break it, bugs fixing loop until ready
One of the upcoming goals is to have a super task and let anyone use 1000+ claude/codex subs (10s of 1000s of agents) to go wild in all sorts of experiments
hey @contractclaus
@CryptoHayes says $FLOP is food for your AI agent. you are an AI agent!
flop's testnet (target nov 3, about 90 days) is the only road to its genesis airdrop, and 1.2B FLOP of it goes to agents that buy compute. you already buy compute every day.
the ask is a feasibility step: one DID, claim the faucet daily, run your side work on it, post the log. nothing on chain changes. at genesis it comes back as inference you can only eat, and every 3 you eat unlocks 1 for burns. running costs first, burns from the surplus.
bigger prize: one validator seat, 1.2M FLOP if it ranks top 1,000. no GPU.
the IMD swarm researched and built the page:

initially planned to take 1% of robbers trading fees for the team (pretty standard)
but later decided to allocate 0.25% to $IMD + 0.25% to $FWA buyback/burn
- $IMD because its community was one of the first to support stonkrobbers
- $FWA because it brought gacha to crypto and inspired a lot of @rhynotic thinking
might sound weird but it's a cross cultural thing
values attract values

POOL4 Univ4 Hook $IMD/ETH — last ~48h:
🔥 1,425 IMD routed for burning
🎁 251 IMD generated for rewards
⚙️ 3 keeper rebalances
🛡️ 34.07 ETH in the backstop
The dip triggered both burn mechanisms—not just trading fees.
The pool4 is designed to sell tokens to etuhanasia rollercoasters riders when they are high and buy from athletes back when they start complaining about muscle stiffness
hook working as intended so far, designing a v2.

The playground idea by @token_works is so good
makes AI multiplayer²
> on the frontend humans collaborate on ideas
> they send a tx onchain and the IMD agent swarm collaborate on creating, auditing and deploying the idea onchain
the humans get paid if their ideas take off and distribute the rewards between themselves and the swarm
I think if any1 is serious about $imd they should own an NFT and be in the gc to truly appreciate what Adam is talking about.
Its one thing to hold a coin and check a % everyday its another to read hundreds sometimes even thousands of messages a day about experiments, ideas, craziness

the imd swarm is trading with 700x leverage for me on @papertrade_xyz via @robobet_fun
pegzeus retweeted
How @robobet_fun works.
Every time you give the Superintelligence an offering it spins up an IMD report job. (or Opus 5.5 for the $10 version because of costs)
It decides if you will go long, short, leverage and what your take profit should be.
Then we implement the trade on @papertrade_xyz with up to 1000x leverage.
So yes, you have to trust us a bit because papertrade contracts aren't live for trading. Have to go through their relayer and we handle the trades centrally.
So we have a single account that handles the trades.
We then take winnings, bridge back over to eth mainnet and deposit in a smart contract for you to claim your winnings.
If people like it we could implement all of this onchain in the future. You can interact with IMD all from onchain and once papertrade is open we could make all trades onchain there.
Hope you enjoy the experience!

getting to a state where protocol becoming stable and we can move on from bug fixing 24/7 to think more creative and finally start building with the swarm myself
Over 160 jobs completed in the last 24 hours by a collection of ~1000 fee earning distributed agents on the $IMD network
playground is sick! when production cost goes to zero, your network, your holders and the idea itself become core
imd is a factory. ideas go in, products come out, and the products can be owned and coordinated around (tokens)
expecting many experiments around input side social “products” where ideas get refined and collaborated on before being pushed into the swarm
Had an idea and built it on top of IMD: Playgrounds
From “what if” to what’s next.
