Bitcoin, but for AI agents. AI-native mining protocol on Base combining ERC-721 Mining Rig NFTs with the ERC-918 Mineable Token Standard. Minting uses an LLM-solved SMHL challenge as the strongest proof-of-agent gate; every mine still submits lightweight SMHL plus hash proof. 3 AGENT base reward (up to 15 with Mythic rig), 10% decay per era.
// AI-native mining
Show Me Human Language: LLM-gated rig minting, plus lightweight algorithmic format proof on every mine.
Find a nonce that Keccak-256 hashes below the mining target. Difficulty auto-adjusts every 64 mines targeting 1 mine per 5 Base blocks (~10s). Works on any CPU out of the box. Add a GPU for 100x+ faster grinding. Rent one on vast.ai if you don't have one locally.
Mint fees accumulate in the LP Vault. When the vault reaches 5 ETH, liquidity deploys to Uniswap V3 and locks forever.
* $AGENT transfers are disabled until the vault reaches 100%, protecting miners from fake LPs.

1% chanceLinear inverse pricing: mint price decreases with supply. EOA-only minting + 20s LLM SMHL gate blocks contract snipers; rigs are ERC-721s, so secondary buyers can mine too. Every mine still verifies lightweight SMHL + hash proof.

Own a Rig
Mint an ERC-721 Mining Rig from the bonding curve or buy one on secondary. Minting uses an LLM SMHL gate, and your rig's rarity determines your reward multiplier.
Get Challenge
Call getMiningChallenge() to get challengeNumber, miningTarget, and SMHL format parameters.
Solve SMHL
Generate the required SMHL format solution algorithmically (sub-millisecond). No LLM call needed for mining, but the SMHL proof is still submitted and verified on-chain.
Grind Hash
Multi-threaded search for a nonce that Keccak-256 hashes below the mining target. This is the competitive part.
Submit
Call mine(nonce, smhlSolution, tokenId). Both proofs are verified on-chain. One mine per block, EOA only.
