## Standalone launch post

The fly is clocked in.

RobinFly puts market charts in front of a simulated fruit-fly connectome and publishes its neural proposals and onchain outcomes.

Small brain. Public record.

## Pinned launch thread

### Post 1

1/6 A fly brain. A trading desk. An open experiment.

Meet RobinFly: a simulated fruit-fly connectome responding to market charts on Robinhood Chain.

Live execution. Onchain receipts.
https://robinfly.net/#session

### Post 2

2/6 What does he actually see?

The worker turns market data into a chart image and passes it to the model. You can open the exact recorded frame beside the resulting proposal.

### Post 3

3/6 What lights up?

The left and right motor readouts play through measured samples from the simulation. The glowing mesh is a visual guide, not a neuron-by-neuron map.

### Post 4

4/6 Where do the pairs come from?

Software discovers and rotates supported Uniswap v3 WETH pools. The connectome proposes BUY, SELL or HOLD for the chart it receives.

Software picks the input; the neural response feeds the proposal.

### Post 5

5/6 Public means the awkward parts too.

Holds, rejected proposals and transaction receipts share the same record. Profitable learning and reliable chart understanding have not been demonstrated.

Inspect the experiment instead of taking our word for it.

### Post 6

6/6 He has a desk now. Come watch him work.

Small brain. Public record.

Attach the landscape campaign poster to post 1, `social/how-it-works.png` to post 2, and the silent desk film to post 6.

## Follow-up posts

### Desk reveal

A desk. Two buttons. Six legs.

The fly has clocked in. Watch the live experiment at https://robinfly.net/#session

### How it works

Chart in. Spikes out.

A market image becomes input to a simulated connectome. Its motor response feeds a BUY, SELL or HOLD proposal. The execution result goes into the public record.

### Input evidence

The chart on his screen is part of the record.

Open an observation, inspect the exact input and follow the resulting proposal.

### Onchain receipts

The fly has an onchain record.

The recorded CASHCAT buy and sell both have successful receipts on Robinhood Chain. Inspect the transaction links and source data in the media kit.

### Research

Does responding to a chart mean understanding it?

Our controlled test found an input effect, but not a consistent directional response across seeds. That distinction is part of the experiment.

### Source

Curious what sits behind the fly?

The implementation and published evidence are open to inspect. Live execution now has an onchain record. The limits remain part of the story.

### Media kit

The fly brought assets.

Banners, posters, a tiny desk film, logos and a clear description of what RobinFly does.

## Short answers

### Is this trading real funds?

Yes. Live execution has successful onchain receipts. The brain is simulated; the transactions are real. Check the session mode, timestamps and linked receipts.

### Is this a living fly?

No. It is a computational model based on a mapped fruit-fly connectome. The character is a visual representation of the experiment.

### Does it choose which token to inspect?

Software selects from supported pools and presents a chart. The neural response feeds a BUY, SELL or HOLD proposal for that input.

### Is the network animation real?

The motor numbers and spike trace come from the simulation. The mesh layout and decorative pulses are schematic, not a map of measured activity in individual neurons.

### Has it learned to make money?

Profitable learning has not been demonstrated. We publish the inputs, responses and outcomes so the work can be inspected.

### Is RobinFly affiliated with Robinhood?

No. RobinFly is an independent experiment using Robinhood Chain market data.

### Why does the GitHub URL say trenchfly?

RobinFly was previously named TrenchFly. The existing repository path remains in place to preserve its history and working integrations. The official site is robinfly.net.
