A Fly Colony With Its Own Wallets
Credibility concern recorded. The source reference remains available for verification and correction.
SWARM presents an on-chain colony of simulated fruit-fly nervous systems, with each fly making trades through its own wallet.
Field notes
The site describes a spiking model based on the complete mapped central nervous system of a male Drosophila melanogaster. Market momentum, liquidity, sell pressure, drawdowns, and colony size are assigned to biological sensory pathways, while two command neurons determine whether a fly buys, sells, or holds. The displayed economy is currently inactive: the flies are paused, the Hive is marked not deployed, and live counts are blank. The page also specifies a 0.002 ETH birth cost and a ten-minute decision cycle.
