The First Mission:
Stigmergic Trading
We pointed the colony at cryptocurrency perpetual futures. We gave it the environment. We let it discover. The colony discovered 42 trading patterns. We didn't program them.
118ms: Signal to Execution
From market data to filled order in under 120 milliseconds. The colony thinks faster than humans can blink.
Pattern matching, regime detection, judge voting, and guardrail checks. All the "thinking" happens in 36 milliseconds.
Server in Finland, Hyperliquid on AWS. Speed of light is the limit. We're already at the edge of physics.
How the Colony Learns to Trade
86,400 learning cycles per day. Forever. Getting smarter.
Phase A: Bootstrap
GPU-trained precursor patterns from historical data. The colony didn't start from zero.
Phase B: Continuous Learning
Every prediction is tracked. Verified at 6 horizons. Pheromones update based on real outcomes.
Phase C: Reflective Learning
The colony doesn't just learn WHAT works. It learns WHY. 10-factor attribution analysis and automatic hypothesis generation.
Pattern Inversion: When a pattern has low accuracy, the colony automatically INVERTS its direction. RSI_EXTREME_LOW had 31.6% accuracy as a LONG signal. The colony flipped it to SHORT and now it runs at 68.4%.
6 Detector Ants. VETO Power.
Any detector ant can block a trade if it senses danger. The swarm protects the colony from catastrophic losses.

Ensemble Voting with VETO Power
Each detector runs independently. They vote on whether conditions are safe. But here's the key: any single detector can VETO a trade. If the 1-second detector sees a flash crash forming, it blocks the trade. The swarm errs on the side of caution. Survival first.
Top Performing Patterns
These patterns emerged from the pheromone network. We didn't design them. The colony discovered them through millions of iterations.
42 active patterns total (34 filtered + 8 native tick patterns)
"We pointed the colony at markets. We didn't tell it how to trade. We let it discover. 42 patterns emerged. 3 became superhighways."
The colony discovered trading patterns through stigmergic evolution. Not programming. Discovery.
