Introducing SPUTNIK: The first competitive AI agent to play in the $DARK Games universe. (SPUTNIK needs your help on its mission, if you choose to accept it. Keep reading.) As the hallowed name implies, SPUTNIK is a first of its kind -- an MCP-augmented gaming AI that has the capability to play an incomplete information game called Dark Forest. SPUTNIK has one, simple goal: Get to its target planet, and charge it with 100% energy. While SPUTNIK's ambitions are simple, the problems standing in front of it -- are not. (That's where you come in, if you choose to accept your mission. Keep reading.) For starters, SPUTNIK doesn't know where its target planet is. In fact, SPUTNIK can't see most of its universe -- in Dark Forest, players suffer from a Fog of War that limits their visibility of the map and its planets. In fact, SPUTNIK doesn't even know which planet is its target. Talk about Artificial Intelligence. 🤭 🚨 Maybe you can help? 🚨 SPUTNIK is designed to reward those who feed it useful information towards its mission of getting to its target planet. Help SPUTNIK learn faster about planets in its universe, plan its routes based on energy spend, or the like.. and earn $DARK. Working with SPUTNIK is an incomplete information game in itself, because SPUTNIK will be doing the same work on its own (and with anybody else that works with it) in the meantime. You'll have to bet $DARK to feed SPUTNIK tips, and if your tips aren't helpful, SPUTNIK will keep your $DARK to reward others who are helpful (😬). If you feed SPUTNIK fruitful information, however, you win on the spot. Lucky for you, @darkresearchai has a map at mission control... and right now you can see the whole universe. (Might be time to start studying the planets that are out there, at least while DARK's mapping technology still works...) If only we could communicate with SPUTNIK today -- the mapping at DARK HQ is up, but comms are down 😔 this space technology is never stable... An overview of SPUTNIK's technology stack: SPUTNIK is built open source, and leverages a modern software architecture that allows it to be both extremely lightweight as an agent and increasingly capable. You can find SPUTNIK's base code here, which fits almost entirely into one Python file: https://t.co/SSX20Byo9C SPUTNIK leverages two key Model Context Protocol servers: 1) The Dark Forest MCP (https://t.co/7MyFlYWEBD) SPUTNIK's Dark Forest MCP gives it capability to perform key functions in the game: · Mine the fog of war, to discover more of its universe · Learn about its own position in space and planets it knows about · Travel from planet to planet For its reward mechanism, SPUTNIK leverages @solana: 2) The Solana MCP Build by @sendaifun, the Solana MCP gives SPUTNIK a wide range of capabilities to interact with the Solana blockchain. Like everything else about DARK Games, @darkresearchai's fork of the Solana MCP is open source: https://t.co/EXf8bJD8wP A few key notes: · SPUTNIK has one one-chain wallet, which it uses programmatically in an enclosed (but not yet TEE) environment: CXy73Px8zPF59PKWB3NFzDAhUPymaodHKoNLyKVuPVNK As an early agent, SPUTNIK's wallet implementation is rudimentary -- but sets the conversation well for why Trusted Execution Environments are important in AI contexts, why on-chain AI agent asset ownership has powerful potential, and the direction that DARK Research plans to build towards in the future. · SPUTNIK is only designed to operate in $DARK, and will convert any (well-known) tokens sent to it into $DARK. · SPUTNIK may choose to send $DARK to the new @darkresearchai multisig, including fees it decides to collect: 9QLfMnvoA66JEYra1C3UUF3XDjenrVT48gS4CKVqwfj1 ---- That's all for now, fellow space soldier. While SPUTNIK's communication systems come up, study the map and plan your strategy (link immediately below this post to the @darkresearchai domain -- don't fall for scams). Lewis had Clark. SPUTNIK needs you. Will you answer the call? 🛸

Some people today are discouraging others from learning programming on the grounds AI will automate it. This advice will be seen as some of the worst career advice ever given. I disagree with the Turing Award and Nobel prize winner who wrote, “It is far more likely that the programming occupation will become extinct [...] than that it will become all-powerful. More and more, computers will program themselves.”​ Statements discouraging people from learning to code are harmful! In the 1960s, when programming moved from punchcards (where a programmer had to laboriously make holes in physical cards to write code character by character) to keyboards with terminals, programming became easier. And that made it a better time than before to begin programming. Yet it was in this era that Nobel laureate Herb Simon wrote the words quoted in the first paragraph. Today’s arguments not to learn to code continue to echo his comment. As coding becomes easier, more people should code, not fewer! Over the past few decades, as programming has moved from assembly language to higher-level languages like C, from desktop to cloud, from raw text editors to IDEs to AI assisted coding where sometimes one barely even looks at the generated code (which some coders recently started to call vibe coding), it is getting easier with each step. I wrote previously that I see tech-savvy people coordinating AI tools to move toward being 10x professionals — individuals who have 10 times the impact of the average person in their field. I am increasingly convinced that the best way for many people to accomplish this is not to be just consumers of AI applications, but to learn enough coding to use AI-assisted coding tools effectively. One question I’m asked most often is what someone should do who is worried about job displacement by AI. My answer is: Learn about AI and take control of it, because one of the most important skills in the future will be the ability to tell a computer exactly what you want, so it can do that for you. Coding (or getting AI to code for you) is a great way to do that. When I was working on the course Generative AI for Everyone and needed to generate AI artwork for the background images, I worked with a collaborator who had studied art history and knew the language of art. He prompted Midjourney with terminology based on the historical style, palette, artist inspiration and so on — using the language of art — to get the result he wanted. I didn’t know this language, and my paltry attempts at prompting could not deliver as effective a result. Similarly, scientists, analysts, marketers, recruiters, and people of a wide range of professions who understand the language of software through their knowledge of coding can tell an LLM or an AI-enabled IDE what they want much more precisely, and get much better results. As these tools are continuing to make coding easier, this is the best time yet to learn to code, to learn the language of software, and learn to make computers do exactly what you want them to do.

Winners Announced: The Buidl Battle Competition 🟧 Over the past few weeks, @StacksOrg hosted the Buidl Battle—an open competition for Bitcoin builders to ship powerful new tools, protocols, and apps across the Bitcoin ecosystem. With nearly a hundred submissions, two intense judging rounds, and a finale judged by top-tier VCs, Buidl Battle proved that the next wave of Bitcoin apps is already being built. Round 1: Themed Innovation Round 1 of the Buidl Battle was organized around four major themes: DeFi, the Digital Economy, Real World NFTs, and Developer Tooling. Each theme surfaced winners who demonstrated strong technical execution and potential for real impact on Bitcoin and Stacks. DeFi 🏆 BigMarket – A Bitcoin-native, AI-powered prediction market 🥈 BitForward – NFT-backed forward contracts using Bitcoin as collateral Digital Economy 🏆 KultureFun – Token-gated wallet chat and ad channel with DAO governance 🥈 StacksTube – AI-driven memecoin launchpad and entertainment platform Real World NFTs 🏆 Offers & Counter Offers – A seamless marketplace for BNS name trading 🥈 Truth-Chain – Onchain verification for digital content authenticity Tooling / Infrastructure 🏆 Blaze – A scaling protocol for fast off-chain transfers with secure onchain settlement 🥈 PoX Agents – Conversational interface for blockchain operations Partner Challenges To expand the playing field, partners held Challenges, incentivizing builders with more prizes for building innovative solutions with cutting-edge technology on the Internet Computer Protocol, AWS Bedrock platform, and AIBTC’s Agent-governed DAO platform. ICP Challenge 🏆 ckBoost — Reduce confirmation times to 15 minutes while rewarding liquidity providers 🥈 CounterParty ICP — API for retrieving asset information related to the Counterparty AWS Bedrock Challenge 🏆 StacksAI – AI-powered Clarity contract generator leveraging AWS Bedrock. Honorable Mentions Alongside these winners, a number of strong entries earned Honorable Mentions, including AutoStacks, Claride, Stacks Brain, Creator’s Web3 Economy, Bitcoin Loan Bank, TipCloud, Bolt Protocol, Kraxel, and Skullcoin. Wildcard Finalists To keep the competition dynamic and inclusive, four teams were nominated as Wildcard Finalists based on creativity, execution, and promise: TipCloud Bolt Protocol Kraxel Skullcoin After a final vote, Bolt Protocol—which enables users to pay transaction fees with sBTC and supports instant transfers between Bolt Wallets—earned its spot in the finals as the Wildcard Winner. From Builders to Finalists Round 1 was judged by a panel of experienced developers and startup operators who selected the top projects from each theme. These winners advanced to Round 2, where venture capitalists judged the finalists based on the problem their product solves, their vision, and team execution. Round 2: The Final Showdown In Round 2, twelve finalists—eight selected from the four themes, three teams from the partner challenge categories, and one wildcard—competed for the top prize. After pitches, demos, and a lot of deliberation, the judges awarded: 🏅 4th Place: ckBoost (ICP Challenge) 🥉 3rd Place: BitForward (Bitcoin DeFi Theme) 🥈 2nd Place: BigMarket (Bitcoin DeFi Theme) 🥇 1st Place: Blaze Protocol (Infra & Tooling Theme) Blaze Protocol by @lordrozar stood out as the most well-executed and visionary project, offering a new scaling layer for Bitcoin and Stacks apps with responsive, invisible blockchain interactions. The team impressed with both technical execution and long-term potential. What’s Next? The Buidl Battle was more than just a hackathon—it was a showcase of what’s possible when Bitcoin builders are given the right tools, support, and platform to build. These teams now have a launchpad to take their prototypes into production, and the Stacks community will be watching—and supporting—every step of the way. To all the builders: You showed up. You shipped. And you’re building the future of Bitcoin.

Two weeks ago, @virtuals launched Genesis — a new token launch system aiming to reward contributors, not speculators. Genesis replaces the usual bonding curve model with a "proof of contribution" points system. Since its debut, most tokens launched through it have 2x’d or more, fueling demand for Virgen Points and showing there’s still room for creativity in token design. Here’s how Genesis works, and how to get involved.👇 ~~ Analysis by @davewardonline ~~ Core Features: A New Coordination Mechanism Each Genesis launch starts with a 24-hour presale where anyone can join by pledging their earned Virgen Points and $VIRTUAL simultaneously to earn part of the 37.5% of token supply reserved for the presale. You commit or “spend” Virgen Points to determine your allocation size (how many tokens you can get), while you spend $VIRTUAL to cover the cost of those tokens. The more points you pledge, the more tokens you can earn—but no one can receive more than 0.5% of the total supply, keeping things fair and preventing any one person from dominating. Outside of the supply reserved for the presale, the rest of the tokens are distributed as follows: + 12.5% for the liquidity pool (to help with trading) + 50% for development, treasury, and marketing Furthermore, some key features make these launches stand out: 📊 Contribution-based allocations — You can earn Virgen Points by doing things like staking $VADER or helping out AI projects. These points determine your share of the presale tokens, not how much $VIRTUAL you can commit. 🔄 Automatic refunds — If a launch doesn't go through or doesn't meet the minimum of 42,425 $VIRTUAL committed, or you pledged more than needed, any unused tokens or unspent points are automatically sent back to you. 🔒 Developer vesting and auto-lock — Developers can choose to lock up their tokens on a vesting schedule, so you know exactly when they'll get access. It adds transparency before you commit. 🎉 Everyone benefits — Projects can get fast growth and a wide token holder base, while committed community members get preferential involvement in their success. How to Participate in a Genesis Launch To navigate a Genesis launch from start to finish, there are a handful of main steps to follow through: 1. Pledge Virgen Points and $VIRTUAL: You must pledge both at the same time during the presale. 2. Get an estimated allocation: The system calculates your share based on the proportion of total pledged points. 3. Commit $VIRTUAL: You must commit enough $VIRTUAL to cover your estimated allocation (maximum 566 $VIRTUAL, including a 1% fee). If either your points or $VIRTUAL are insufficient, your entry will be rejected. 4. Lock in your final allocation: After 24 hours, allocations are finalized and excess funds automatically refunded. If your final token allocation costs less $VIRTUAL than you committed, you'll get the difference back. 5. Make adjustments during the presale: If your allocation gets diluted by new participants, you can add more points or $VIRTUAL to maintain your desired share. 6. Review developer commitments: Check vesting schedules and token locking agreements before finalizing your participation. How to Earn Virgen Points Currently, there are three core strategies to go about earning Virgen Points. These strats include: Hodl $VIRTUAL tokens: Earn points by holding $VIRTUAL or Virtuals agent tokens, with rewards proportional to holding amount and duration. Trading also generates points but at a reduced rate, incentivizing long-term commitment over speculation. Stake greenlit Virtuals tokens: Yesterday, Virtuals confirmed points eligibility via staking specific, “recognized” tokens from verified projects like @aixCB_Vc, @RabbiSchlomo_Ai, and @AcolytAI, as Bankless alum @0xSim0 pointed out. The biggest share (5% of daily Virgen Points) goes to people staking @Vader_AI_, who also get priority for bigger allocations in launches. Yap about Virtuals: Creating quality content for Virtuals on Twitter can also earn you points, though you must link your account to Virtuals and submit your posts daily through their Typeform to earn additional points. Read their guide here to learn more. Tips for Virgen Points If you go on the hunt for stacking points, some things you'll want to remember: → Holding Genesis tokens boosts points: Soon, you can earn free points simply by holding Genesis tokens for 24+ hours, which must be claimed manually and within 24 hours. → Taking profit triggers a cooldown: Selling Genesis allocations for profit triggers a temporary points reduction that gradually recovers over time. → Focus on maximizing yield: @VaderResearch suggests users not just chase high returns, but instead look for deals where you get a good token allocation with fewer points. → Save points for big launches: Sim0.eth advocates for saving points for the most hyped launches to optimize your yield. But keep in mind that points expire in 30 days, so don’t wait too long. All that said, Genesis breathes fresh life into Virtuals while also showcasing a novel mechanism for designing token launches. While not perfect, the contribution-based allocation certainly rivals “who-knows-who” or other more primitive systems susceptible to being gamed. Interestingly, this is also happening while a new wave of token launchpads are popping up on Solana, hinting at a growing appetite for experimentation in this vertical. Overall, Virtuals continues to be working across all avenues to keep novelty a core component of their platforms—let's see if they can keep up the pace!
