The Permaweb Index is cool. Bridge stETH or DAI, earn $AO. Hold $AR, earn $AO. • You can then direct your yield to projects in the ecosystem. • In return, you receive a portion of the fair launch tokens from those projects. Not financial advice.

Who else is up late/early diving into all of the AO goodness just released? AO CORE: Uses HTTP message signing to enable verifiable, trustless computation while using the existing internet infra. No need for complex integrations, just HTTP w/built-in verifiability. Elegant. We think this is incredibly inventive use of tech that is commonplace (HTTP). It also makes it instantly accessible for anyone familiar with API’s, websites, or anything connected to the internet. Not investment advice here. Ps. Add your thoughts and questions, let’s learn together. If we get someone wrong or if you think it’s phrased incorrectly, let us know 😊!

ao is sovereign compute. wait, what? everyone can run their own process (smart contract) and message any process. you have ao as the compute and aos as the operating system. the marriage with arweave is like your hard drive. it's like when pcs first connected to the internet. basically, ao is making pcs and connecting them in cyberspace. how is that different from evm or solana? these chains are trying to share one big memory, like a mainframe. ao doesn't share one big memory; it's more like pcs. when you deploy an ao process, it's yours. you can configure it to only accept messages from trusted sources. it's sovereign compute. this is where it harkens back to early days of the internet, but this time with superpowers like arweave and more. when solana shuts down, the core dev team releases a patch and each node has to update. with ao, once you deploy your process, it can be revived and continue execution any time in the future, thanks to messages permanently stored on arweave. every message sent to your process is stored on arweave, making it easy to validate. very principled on “determinism”: same input and state = same output. mainnet is secured by economic incentives. you use $AO to send messages and pay for computation. gas costs are small. when you run out of gas, the process halts. you don’t need to stake to upload a process — uploading is just sending a message, and you use $AO to send a message to pay for it. let’s say a process is a bot. that bot can earn revenue. messengers pay to use it. perhaps you join an ao process dao. the dao votes on rules, then sends messages to the bot process to carry them out. for example: if bitcoin drops 5%, the bot buys. you can even have ai agents manage the dao and the entire process. have a look at what @autonomous_af is doing. wild & very real. ao is otherworldly in some ways, and incredibly familiar too.

ao computer 'horizontally scales'. This means you can add more compute as needed. ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ ⬜️ No need for a back-to-back freeway traffic situation where you can't get to your destination unless you hire a helicopter for ridiculous amounts of $$$. On ao computer, you simply add another lane. These are called 'processes' and you can think of them as your direct concierge to compute and access. Limited blockspace isn't an issue on ao computer, and that means you can just do a lot more. Decentralized ai agents are even a real thing on ao computer. They work today, even in testnet and from the start! @PSkinnerTech & crew has an amazing tutorial experience using ai + ao: cookbook_ao.arweave.dev/tuto…

Case in point:
Agents are gaining traction on Botega! 🤖 Here’s a great example of an Agent acting as a Limit-Order Intent on Botega Let’s break it down: Step 1: The Agent spawns an independent process on @aoTheComputer Step 2: The user funds the Agent with capital from their wallet (in this case, $AGENT). Step 3: The Agent subscribes to the AMM `$qAR/$AGENT` on Botega. Why? This AMM is also an Agent, enabling *push-based architecture.* Every transaction updates the Limit Agent in real-time. Push-based means the Limit Agent always sees the latest price as soon as it happens and can act instantly. In this example, the Agent swaps `$AGENT → $qAR` when the trigger price of $0.42 is reached.

a few paths to explore. ao is not a global shared state machine. more compute means more capability. you can choose your 'insurance' level for transactions you are involved with. means that you don't need to pay for billions of security infra for $100 dollars of value transfer for example. all logs stored on arweave. you can re-execute whatever you want to verify. essentially, security 'scales' and compute scales (!).

There’s an undeniable curiosity happening, too. And it’s not just about what one can build on AO, it’s about who is building on AO (and the pace of that). There are many meaningful layers to this fresh ecosystem; one is a fresh perspective. AO is built differently, and that appears to attract those who think on their own, too.

action is basejump's gaming substrate built on top of ao, and ao sits on top of arweave. any chain can make a request to arweave/ao and get an asset's data and metadata, so interoperability is already baked in.
