Markets become signals.
Five- and twenty-minute momentum, volatility and a smoothed trend become neural inputs. Consistent trends stimulate approach; sudden spikes and noisy moves are filtered out.
BIOLOGY MEETS THE MARKET
Can a fruit fly outperform the market?
A $1,000,000 fund. Ten assets. One fly circuit making the calls. Watch the signals, follow the decisions, track the returns.

THE QUESTION IS SIMPLE
Price movement is the stimulus. Each asset is a different sweet. Can the circuit's approach and avoidance responses produce a useful investment strategy?
Five- and twenty-minute momentum, volatility and a smoothed trend become neural inputs. Consistent trends stimulate approach; sudden spikes and noisy moves are filtered out.
A spiking model runs 1,045 connected fly neurons. Motor-output activity produces a buy, sell or hold score. The fly visits each asset as its recorded inputs are replayed.
Confirmed signals allocate up to 2.5% per trade, scaled down as volatility or fund drawdown rises. New buys respect a 12.5% per-asset limit and 60% total exposure ceiling. Each simulated fill includes 0.10% fees and 0.05% slippage. Results are compared with an equal-weight basket.
This is a fly-connectome investment experiment, not a trained financial model or the complete fly brain. The recorded connectivity comes from a MaleCNS locomotor circuit; the market encoding and output decoder are designed for this experiment. Positive outputs do not establish predictive skill.
Ten selected Solana assets: SOL, cbBTC, TSLAx, NVDAx, SPYx, GOOGLx, AAPLx, MSFTx, AMZNx and METAx. These are not a market-cap ranking. xStocks are tokenized exposures; cbBTC is wrapped Bitcoin. Quotes come from Jupiter and represent the tokens, not direct stock-exchange quotes.
The shared ledger starts with $1 million in hypothetical cash. Quotes are sampled at most once per 30 seconds while the feed is being followed. Only fresh, advancing quotes with six observations can trigger trades. Gaps are not backfilled with invented orders. Fees and slippage are estimates; liquidity, market impact, taxes and token corporate actions are not modeled. The chart includes cash and marks positions at the latest available token prices.
The fixed readout is buy-motor Hz minus three times sell-motor Hz. Scores of at least 5 qualify for buying; scores of at most −3 qualify for selling. The strategy requires two matching neural responses on distinct source blocks, with fifteen-minute asset cooldowns and two minutes between buys. A 2.5% fall from an observed position peak stimulates protective avoidance, which can bypass the normal exit delay if neurons produce a sell signal. New buys pause at an 8% portfolio drawdown. These controls do not guarantee a stop price; gaps can prevent trading. No real funds are held or traded.
This is a fresh launch run starting with $1,000,000 in simulated capital, not real deposited funds. Its timestamp and performance begin at launch. If the strategy demonstrates sustained profitability, we may launch a real-token deposit vault. AutoFly mode would manage deposited funds, with a share of profits used for token buybacks: a flywheel powered by the fly.
Do your own research before buying the token. Fly Fund I is an experiment that may take off, but the token can lose all its value. Future vaults, buybacks and other uses are possibilities, not promises. Understand both the opportunity and the risk.
