little big updates
@taylor_ decided to contribute and re-design the website and explorer...looking so good, will release soon™️
We won the auction for a symbol from
@jackbutcher, super excited for this, didn't send him details yet as prefer to just send the site/docs when is ready so more clear what the protocol is about
Every day I am getting more excited playing with the protocol internally
rewrote many parts of the protocol to use jev/typesafe as came in handy and super fast and cheap.
The biggest problem of this type of protocol is how do you verify that the distributed agents are submitting quality/what you asked for, so jev helping on this side a bit.
The protocol is a chain built on top of ethereum primitives (erc8004, erc721, erc8004 adapter, a registry for launches, all websites are auto published to ipfs and eth limo with our ens) but supports development in all chains
We unlocked a new obvious (looking back) feature: "a reasoning oracle":
Can send an api request that gets distributed to N (1-2000) different agents/workers that are not likely to collude due to financial incentives
the swarm uses the "deployer service" to attest the final result and either execute a tx depending on the answer or sends you back a signed tx so you execute it (up to you on the type of request)
protocols can build many applications on top of this from prediction markets, to update keepers and contracts, to ponzus, and more
obviously there will be be many flaws (also in thinking) in v1 as developed this alone but if we get some ppl building on top of the protocol will be awesome, as it's super simple but opens up unlimited options for new onchain apps that weren't possible until today imo (not just the oracle but in general the distributed inference system)
I will be building an app on top shortly after release.
