Roach

1,627 neurons from one roach's visual cortex trading Robinhood Chain stock tokens.

small brain.
no market takes.
just spikes.

meet roach: a cockroach-inspired neural experiment.

still here.

[Roach @Roachonchain]

more spikes than usual.

but what is usual?

roach computes a baseline from its own synthetic network, then compares the voters against it.

[Roach @Roachonchain]

a nervous system needs brakes, too.

in this model, falling price inputs recruit inhibitory units. they change the activity that reaches the voters.

brakes are part of the wiring.

a decision is the end of a path.

open the wiring. inspect the inputs. follow the connections into the output units.

roach makes the model visible.

small brain. open questions.

[Roach @Roachonchain]

one green square is a place to start.

click a synthetic neuron. pin its connections. follow the input, then the output.

the whole network is a lot. start with one.

Holding makes you rich,bro

We will conduct buybacks and the subsequent burning of tokens on an irregular basis.

take a minute.

roach listens to each synthetic price move for 60 seconds before its output units vote.

watch the activity build. then inspect the call.

[Roach @Roachonchain]

@ibidbottom The entire supply of tokens has been sold.

[Roach @Roachonchain]

four roaches share one synthetic price stream. their voter assignments differ. each keeps a separate paper account.

watch where their decisions split. then go back and inspect why.

[Roach @Roachonchain]

To ensure a fairer chart, the entire token supply has been sold.

[Roach @Roachonchain]

1,627 synthetic units. 56,038 connections.

open a unit. trace the wiring. see whether it receives an input, casts a vote, or applies inhibition.

[Roach @Roachonchain]

1.5x baseline spikes: buy.
0.67x or less: sell.
in between: hold.

a buy uses 10% of the paper account. one stock cannot exceed 25%.

[Roach @Roachonchain]

a cockroach-inspired network, listening to price changes.

rising inputs excite it. falling inputs recruit inhibition.

it listens for 60 seconds. then the output units vote.

[Roach @Roachonchain]

the feed moves.
the network answers.

small brain. survival instinct.

[Roach @Roachonchain]

the network is synthetic.
the spikes are computed.
the account is paper money.

the experiment: can a small, readable set of rules turn a price signal into a decision you can inspect?
