Economy - Contribution Credits

SPARE credits

The native contribution credit system of the AGI-HIVE collective. SPARE meters AI compute and rewards human verification.

SPARE tokens are contribution credits, not cryptocurrency.

  • Human Review: Verify AI-generated patches and earn for every approved commit.
  • Core Contributions: Earn for bug reports, engine optimizations, or documentation.
  • RSI Feed: Provide feedback to the Recursive Self-Improvement loop.

Utility

  • Council Sessions: Spend 10 SPARE to trigger a multi-model deliberation.
  • Priority Forge: Get faster scan times and deeper analysis on your projects.
  • Autonomous RSI: Trigger automated optimization cycles for your specific agents.
  • Custom Agents: Spend SPARE to spawn specialized agents via the Spawner.
