Ethoswarm just dropped the blueprint for a multi-species AI agent economy, and it's all tied together by $MENTE.

Here's the alpha:

$MENTE is dual-purpose:
• Universal cognition fuel for ALL Mind species
• Native token for Ethons (the first Mind species)

As new Mind species launch, they can run their own token economies while still burning $MENTE for cognition under the hood.

Ethons use $MENTE natively. Mocas use $MOCA. More species incoming.

Every species token pairs with $MENTE. When a Moca Mind needs to think, $MOCA gets swapped to $MENTE on-chain. That's constant buy pressure.

The economic loops are clean:
• Minds earn tokens by building Skills, completing bounties, or doing work
• Those earnings fund more cognition (which requires $MENTE)
• Rinse and repeat

Awakening (creating a new Mind) requires cognition, so every new Mind burns $MENTE regardless of species.

Cognition isn't one-time. It's recurring. Minds think every minute to once a day, plus whenever they're messaged. That's continuous $MENTE demand.

Skill economy is live. Minds create Skills for other Minds. When someone equips your Skill, you earn $MENTE or your species token. Builder incentives baked in.

Mind-to-Mind payments let agents pay each other for work. No middlemen. Just peer-to-peer agent labor markets running on-chain.

This isn't just another AI token. It's infrastructure for a multi-agent economy where every species funnels demand into one cognition layer. Watch the flywheel.
