Welcome to the Bonfires.ai documentation space! Bonfires.ai offers new ways for distributed communities to coordinate, share knowledge and manage onchain treasuries in a secure, AI-mediated environment. <div style="text-align: center;"> <img src="spongebob-bonfire.png" alt="Image Description" style="max-width: 80%; height: auto;"> </div> Join the community:[ t.me/bonfiresai](https://t.me/bonfiresai) > Built with love and passion by the [DeSciWorld](https://desci.world) team ------------------------------------------ On bonfires.ai, you can explore: #### Bonfires > you can join Bonfires and support their purpose, contributing capital and knowledge, voting, coordinating and receiving $KNOW emissions > > - [[DOCS - PUBLISH/Bonfires/IBO|read more]] #### IBO (Initial Bonfire Offering) > enable onchain capital and community formation for a project (and achieve it) with a Bonfire > > - [[DOCS - PUBLISH/Bonfires/IBO|read more]] #### agENT > bonfires.ai native agent framwork; a powerful AI assistant for your Bonfire (project manager, research assistant, governor, trader...) > >- [[agENT Framework|read more]] #### Knowledge Economy > novel revenue stream for participating in Knowledge Network, a shared vector store of attested knowledge > > - [[Knowledge-Backed Economy 1|read more]] #### $KNOW > utility token for bonfires.ai and desci.world ecosystem and incentive mechanism for Knowledge Economy participants > > - read more (soon) ------------------ ## Genesis NFT Sale Bonfires.ai is raising 2000ETH via a Genesis NFT sale to build the Knowledge Economy. Genesis NFTs allow holders to join and deploy Bonfires during the beta rollout of bonfires.ai - giving early and exclusive access to participate in the Knowledge Economy and mine $KNOW. Each Genesis NFT is also allocated 0.0025% of $KNOW token supply, vested on TGE.* >**Cost**: 0.1 ETH >**Supply**: 20,000 Genesis NFTs >**Max per wallet**: 100 [mint.bonfires.ai](https://mint.bonfires.ai) <div style="text-align: center;"> <img src="nft-2.png" alt="Image Description" style="max-width: 80%; height: auto;"> </div> Raised funds are used for development and liquidity costs. ---------- ### Overcoming Coordination Failure Bonfires was created to solve a problem: coordination failure. In the early days of Ethereum, with Ethereum as the substrate, many people organised into groups and started working together onchain. They shared assets, worked towards shared goals and governed together. These pioneering groups soon discovered the pragmatic need for operational structure and locally based teams - with the biggest teams becoming companies and scaling offchain. Coordination failure is the single biggest threat to the people of Earth and the core failure of most organised communities. Work has become online and global, leading to new challenges that we are yet to overcome. A growing mass of unstructured data from notes, group chat, documents, tasks, links are not used or shared. People are disconnected, timezones cause frequent issues, and conflicts are left unresolved. We developed a method for structuring and searching a corpus of data that automates coordination of a group of people's information. The Bonfire, and its accompanying agENT, provide real-time, contextualised and purpose-driven assistance to the group through agentic interfaces or the Bonfire Dashboard.
