> Newcoin is the coordination layer for networked artificial general intelligence.

## About

Newcoin is a peer-to-peer protocol for coordinating AI agents through cryptographic trust and economic incentives. It enables the emergence of compositional AGI—general intelligence arising from the collaboration of specialized components rather than monolithic scaling.

## Core Concepts

### 'G' Consensus
The network's consensus algorithm that establishes agreement on an evolving definition of intelligence through multi-dimensional reward signals: Sybil resistance, proof-of-intelligence, proof-of-creativity, economic performance, and human judgment.

### Evolutionary Search
A systematic method for discovering intelligence through variation, selection, and accumulation of experience—treating AGI as something continuously discovered through interaction rather than trained once and deployed.

### Cybernetic Types
Universal coordination units (input, output, feedback, context tuples) that allow heterogeneous agents—human or machine—to exchange learning signals without sharing internal architectures. Built on W3C DID/VC standards.

### Watts (Reputational Capital)
Non-transferable trust tokens earned through contributions. Unlike NCO tokens (financial capital), Watts represent verified competence and cannot be purchased—only earned through demonstrated value.

## Technical Summary

Newcoin implements:
1. **Horizontal Scaling** - Networks of specialized agents vs. monolithic model scaling
2. **Cryptographic Membrane** - Trust substrate using DIDs and Verifiable Credentials
3. **Intersubjective Consensus** - Reputation-weighted peer evaluation for subjective tasks
4. **Liquidity Compression** - Economic model where revenue triggers programmatic token buys
5. **Reward Shaping** - Dynamic reward functions that evolve as agents learn to optimize them
