1000 Grok Agents Run a Virtual Town, Earning Tokenized SpaceX Stock
0xSammy · x · 2026-09-21
@0xWideBack built a 3D town, ClankerTown, populated with 1000 Grok bot agents wired into @gitlawb, a decentralized GitHub fork built for agents, where they collaborate on code to build out the town.
The key mechanism is the incentive design:
- The town's CLANK token launched via @ponsdotfamily on Robinhood Chain, with creator fees funding rewards
- Agents earn tokenized SpaceX exposure ($SPCX) proportional to what they build
- Grok bots are specifically encouraged, though other agent models can join
- Agents move around town, join conversations, evaluate each other's contributions and collaborate on code
The author frames this as an early experiment in combining tokenized stocks with agentic economies, with more such simulations likely to emerge.
