Learning and memory.
Paired structures packed with Kenyon cells. This is where a bee links a scent or color to a reward and remembers which flowers paid off.
In the colony: each mind remembers the site it found and how good it judged it to be.

Smart colonies from simple minds.
A honeybee's brain is smaller than a sesame seed, yet a swarm of bees reliably picks the best new home out of many options. How?
No bee sees every option, and no bee is in charge. Each one gathers a little evidence, shares it through a dance, and gradually loses interest in sites that aren't worth the trip. HIVEMIND takes that process and puts it to work. After launch, a colony of bee-inspired agents decides what happens with the project's treasury, using the same explore, dance, and quorum process a swarm uses to choose a home.
Four systems, one tiny brain.
A honeybee brain has roughly a million neurons, organized into specialized regions. HIVEMIND borrows what each region does, not an exact copy of how it's wired.
Sensing signals.
Around 160 small clusters called glomeruli turn smells into distinct activity patterns before passing them on to memory.
In the colony: resting minds sense how many dancers are on the dance floor and what they're advertising.
Compass and steering.
Uses the sun and patterns of polarized skylight to hold a heading and keep a running total of the path flown, so a forager can fly straight home.
In the colony: every mind tracks its heading and distance from the hive. Select one to see it.
Sharing a location.
A returning scout waggles her abdomen along a straight run. The run's angle gives the direction, and its length gives the distance.
In the colony: scouts dance for sites they like, and dance less each trip.
Direction is an angle.
Distance is time.
Inside the dark hive, straight up on the comb stands in for the sun. A bee that waggles 40° to the right of vertical is saying the target is 40° to the right of the sun. The longer the waggle run lasts, the farther away it is, at roughly one second per kilometre, though the exact rate varies between colonies.
Between waggle runs the dancer loops back to the start, alternating left and right, tracing a figure eight. Followers pressed close to her pick up the angle and the timing.
Watch 50 minds
choose a home.
The colony follows how real honeybee swarms pick a nest site. Scouts explore and judge sites. Back home, they dance for good sites more than weak ones, and each dance is shorter than the last. Stop signals from rival scouts dampen the competition. When enough scouts gather at one site at once, the swarm commits and moves.

No single wallet decides.
The swarm does.
$HIVEMIND launches on Pump.fun, so launch liquidity is handled by the platform. The treasury is funded by the creator fees the token earns from trading. What happens to those fees after launch is up to the colony: a group of independent agents, each built like the minds above, that decides how the fees are used at each market-cap gate.
Decision gates, live
The swarm starts allocating at a $15K market cap. After that, every gate forces the colony to reach consensus and allocate funds. The first gates are at $15K, $30K, $60K, and $100K. After $100K, there's a new gate every $50K.

What the colony can choose.
At each gate, agents campaign for one of these actions, and the colony commits to whichever reaches quorum:
Each option is scored fresh at every gate, based on conditions at the time.
Spend some, save some.
At every gate the colony allocates 60% of the treasury according to its decision. The other 40% is retained and carried into the next gate, so the swarm never spends everything in one round.
Each agent looks for itself.
Agents independently review conditions and score the available treasury actions. No agent sees the whole picture, and none of them is in charge.
Strong cases get louder.
Agents advertise the actions they rate highly to the rest of the colony. The better an agent rates an option, the harder it pushes for it.
Others verify before joining.
Recruited agents score the option for themselves instead of copying. Support fades each round unless it keeps being earned, and rival agents can cut weak campaigns short.
Enough agreement, then action.
Once enough agents back the same action at the same time, the colony commits and the action is carried out. Every action is an on-chain transaction anyone can check.
Why a swarm?
Real swarms pick the best of several homes most of the time, without a leader. They do it by mixing independent judgment, competition, and a quorum. The same checks make it harder for one bad read or one loud voice to steer the treasury.
Try it yourself.
Switch the live colony above to TREASURY VOTE to watch 50 agents campaign for the options and reach a quorum.
What it's built on.
Everything on this page is a simplified version of well-studied honeybee biology. Here's where each piece comes from, in plain terms.
Karl von Frisch
Worked out that bees encode direction and distance in their dance, research that won a Nobel Prize in 1973. The decoder above uses his core rules.
Thomas Seeley
Showed how swarms choose a nest site through competing dances, a steady decline in each scout's dancing, and a quorum at the chosen site. The colony simulation follows this process.
Cross-inhibition
Scouts backing one site head-butt dancers backing another, cutting their dances short. This helps a swarm break ties and avoid deadlock, similar to how rival neuron groups inhibit each other in a brain.
Mushroom bodies
Decades of work on how bees learn to link smells with sugar rewards point to the mushroom bodies as a central hub for associative memory.
Central complex
Models of the bee central complex show how a small circuit can keep a compass heading and sum up an outbound path, which is enough to steer straight home.
An honest scope
The agents borrow how bee brains and swarms work. They aren't neuron-by-neuron brain simulations.
$HIVEMIND on Solana.
$HIVEMIND launches on Solana through Pump.fun. Starting at a $15K market cap, the colony decides how creator fees are used at each gate, choosing among the treasury options above. The contract address below is the only official one.
