Project overview
What flybrainwork computes, who it serves and how the pieces fit together.
flybrainwork produces verifiable, reusable computations over a fruit-fly neural connectivity graph. A browser can prepare the registered model, search a frozen stimulus task and preserve its output. An authority coordinates submission and complete replay. Public results and the Explorer make the resulting evidence easier to inspect.
The project combines scientific computation with a finite funding model. Every payable discovery belongs to a defined task and reserved budget. A successful numerical result, a competition win and a finalized token payment are separate events.
The four parts of the experience#
| Part | What you can do | What the page tells you |
|---|---|---|
| Mining | Prepare the model, control a computation and preserve candidates | Preparation, actual work, submission and funding state |
| Neuron atlas | Browse source types and representative anatomy | Classification, provenance and structural context |
| Results | Read authorized publications and reproduction packages | Numerical scope, metrics, evidence and download rights |
| Explorer | Follow public rounds and settlement records | Candidate eligibility, verification, winner and payment evidence |
Compute services provides a route for scoped requests. The broader Marketplace remains under development; its proposed products are described separately in the Marketplace roadmap.
How work moves through the system#
How computation and evidence connect
- 01Research definitionsFrozen graph, model and task
- 02Browser minerExplicit computation and private candidate
- 03Authority + full replayEligibility, verification and unique winner
- 04Evidence + settlementPublic projection and finite Devnet payment
A model and task definition must agree before work begins. The browser executes the same frozen numerical rules used by the verifier. Private candidate material travels through the authorized submission path; the public query service exposes a narrower projection. Solana records the financial actions of the specifically configured Devnet plan.
Project resources and records#
| Resource | How to use it |
|---|---|
| How it works | Read the short product explanation, then use this handbook for the detailed workflow |
| Scientific methods | Follow the evidence registry and source/model evaluation boundaries |
| Whitepaper | Read the versioned protocol and economic design; historical documents keep their original rules |
| My records and payment settings | Compare local work, accepted contributions, wallet grants and settled assets |
| Validators | Read the verification scope; open node installation and staking remain future work |
| Community | Follow public task participation and versioned rules; it does not issue an independent participation grant |
| Methods and source notes | Follow the source/methods links and explanatory articles without treating an older article as live funding state |
| Product capabilities | Read capability references together with the current availability guide |
| Help | Find a short recovery path and contact/request entry |
The header's Resources menu provides the secondary entries. Privacy and terms describe user-facing policies; the logo download provides the supplied project mark.
Who this handbook is for#
Participants can follow Your first session, then learn about model storage, wallets and grants. Researchers can inspect the model, tasks, verification and reproducibility guides. Developers and operators can start with architecture and pinned workspace builds. Customers can read the service request guide before submitting a scope.
You do not need a wallet to read documentation, browse the atlas or inspect public evidence. Reading a page does not start a simulation or authorize spending.
Scientific and network scope#
The registered graph contains 165,122 neurons and 25,563,197 directed neuron pairs. These counts describe the prepared graph; directed pairs are not the original biological synapse count. The model uses deterministic integer point-neuron dynamics. It is a computational model with explicit assumptions, rather than a measured reconstruction of all biological dynamics.
The deployed wallet settlement program and FBW asset use Solana Devnet. The initial two-unit acceptance budget is complete. A separate two-FBW task-supply stage now funds two additional calibrated targets, without changing the initial paid tasks or supply. Mainnet, formal emission and production payments remain inactive. See Feature availability for the current boundary.
Project and token names#
The website UI name is flybrainwork. The maintained project and GitHub owner remain flybrainlabs. The existing test token is also named flybrainwork, with symbol FBW and eight decimals. The official website remains flybrain.work, and the project X link is flybrainwork. A matching symbol is insufficient to identify an asset; use the complete Devnet identity in FBW Devnet reference.
