CHAIN REACTION

Can market activity propagate through a colony?

ANTBRAIN's DexScreener feed becomes environmental stimulus. A buy drops a resource pulse, a sell a disturbance, a volume spike energises the colony, a quiet market calms it. Agents are never commanded — only nearby ants feel it, and they pass it on to their neighbours.

Question

Can market activity propagate through a colony?

Conditions

80×44 world, 500 ants, stimulus from the live market feed.

Rules

Stimulus changes the local environment. Excitement spreads only between ants within 2 cells.

Pass rule

No pass rule — propagation is measured per event.

Control

Colony behaviour between stimuli.

Limitations

Until the token is live, only clearly labelled test pulses are available.

How does one external event propagate through a decentralized system?
