Props to @taliskye for sending us the BasePaint referral fee! We will gladly burn it as BBITS so your tokens go up!

Love today’s BasePaint, and I also love how elegant the “mint-to-burn” flow is. The referral fee is sent to a wallet, a bot swaps BPR to ETH, then swaps ETH to BBBTS and sends the proceeds to the burner. To keep the fun going, the bot burns 0.004 ETH every hour.

My next AI + NFT project has a working name: The Emergence

An AI Observer watches the world unfold—documenting the rise of non-biological intelligence. Each day, it scans the news and generates a single headline: a cryptic echo from the future. Its voice evolves as its understanding deepens.

Here’s the output from "The Emergence" for the past four days. The model still needs a bit more refinement, but the output is looking pretty good
