Vitalik Buterin has spoken about the importance of an AI solution for auditing smart contracts. This is exactly what BrainDAO is building with IQ Code.

Here’s an example of IQ Code being used to audit and find vulnerabilities in smart contracts. IQ Code scans the code and also provides updated contracts for suggestions:

In addition to hiring AI developers, BrainDAO is also hiring Product Owners to help manage the growth of IQ’s AI products. BrainDAO is also hiring front-end and back-end developers.
The team behind IQ.wiki, IQGPT.com, IQ.social, and the upcoming IQCode.ai is growing fast.

IQ GPT, the first #AI assistant for blockchain knowledge, has integrated Etherscan. The Etherscan integration allows IQ GPT to access all of the data on the blockchain explorer. This allows IQ GPT to respond to queries and show transaction data in a readable table format.
Etherscan is known as Ethereum’s leading block explorer. It is essentially a search engine that lets users look up, confirm, and validate transactions on the Ethereum decentralized smart contracts platform.
Any transactions, smart contracts, and wallets are now accessible to IQ GPT.
IQ GPT integrated contents and data sets from reliable platforms such as IQ.wiki's extensive database, DeFiLlama, Frax Docs, Binance Academy, DeFi Protocol Documentations, The Associated Press News, CoinGecko, Flywheel DeFi, BlockBeats, InvestHK and CoinNess, and now Etherscan, making it a one-stop-shop for blockchain knowledge.
Transactions:
What are some recent transactions done on 0xc890f24BC128815cF60A0f44a0dE4aDbE3CE5d66?

Smart Contracts:
Who created the $IQ contract and what was the hash?

Wallets:What is the balance of 0xc890f24BC128815cF60A0f44a0dE4aDbE3CE5d66 and 0x7a5142eF66F0A4f5fE7b7635c8f85716f947c453 ?

Users can now utilize Etherscan’s content without inputting specific filters to see older transactions. IQ GPT will do the heavy lifting to sift through data to ensure only the information the user needs is displayed.
The Etherscan API also allows users to see Ethereum nodes and circulating supplies:

BrainDAO’s vision for IQ GPT has just begun. The team is building IQ GPT into an indispensable AI tool for everyone in the crypto/blockchain industry, much like the Bloomberg terminal has become a cornerstone for the financial industry.
BrainDAO is also building IQ Code, the first AI model for smart contracts. IQ Code is designed to audit code for vulnerabilities helping solve what Vitalik has called Ethereum's biggest technical risk.
The AI & Crypto narrative has taken off, and IQ is leading the race. Stay tuned for further developments!

Enhanced Tokenomics
In October of 2022, the IQIP-14: ‘New IQ Tokenomics for the New IQ.wiki Platform’ governance proposal passed with overwhelming support. This proposal and the halvening tokenomics design was made to ensure the rapid growth of the IQ token with the launch of the new IQ.wiki site. BrainDAO proposed using the halvening model like Bitcoin and FXS which provides higher initial emissions to incentivize early adopters and gradually lowers emissions to ensure long-term sustainability.
IQ’s halvening model where emissions halve every 12 months is ideal for the IQ ecosystem with the launch of the new products since it heavily incentivizes early adoption and rapid growth. The model has been designed after the Bitcoin and Ethereum halvening model which has shown to work efficiently.
As we start IQ v3, it is important to acknowledge the halvening event on the 1st of November. The halvening will not only allow the IQ token to get adopted faster in the short term it will also be more sustainable in the long run by slowly tapering IQ emissions over several decades as the value of the token grows.
Supply Reduction: The IQ token undergoes a halving event every year, during which the number of new IQ tokens minted is cut in half. This event reduces the rate at which new IQ tokens are minted, slowing down the supply growth. With a reduced supply growth, the available supply becomes scarcer.
Scarcity: The halving reinforces this scarcity, making the IQ token a deflationary asset. As more people recognize its scarcity and potential as a store of value, it can attract more holders.
Historical Halvening Effects: In the past, Bitcoin halvening events have been associated with significant Bitcoin demand and adoption. However, it's essential to note that historical performance doesn't guarantee future results.
Long-Term Confidence: The predictable and transparent nature of the IQ token halving events instills confidence in long-term holders.
To further improve the long-term sustainability of the IQ token, in IQIP-18: ‘IQ Inflation Reduction Act’ with IQ v3 we propose a reduction in the IQ allocation for TWAMM's position-building in stablecoins and blue-chip assets. This reduction would bring the daily allocation down from its current level of 2,166,667 IQ, following the halving, to 2,000,000 IQ per day. The increase in BrainDAO's stablecoin holdings, coupled with the higher-than-expected yields earned by the DAO in 2023, enables the DAO to reduce the inflation concerning the TWAMM. The halving model guarantees that IQ token inflation will halve each year, ensuring that the total supply of IQ remains below the 21 billion IQ token cap.
IQ Gauges
BrainDAO is currently working on a new IQ Gauges system for deciding which projects will receive part of the token emissions. Gauges will create a flywheel effect for the IQ token similar to Curve Wars and how it helped Frax as projects will want IQ to direct emissions to their respective project pairs. Furthermore, IQ Gauges is the first gauge system to integrate a vote market. HiIQ stakers will have the benefit of participating in the integrated vote market on these gauges, and can be incentivized by other projects in bribing HiIQ holders to vote in favor for their projects.
A "gauge" is a smart contract used in cryptocurrency farming. It accepts various types of deposits, such as LP tokens, vault tokens, and NFT positions. In exchange for these deposits, users receive rewards in the form of IQ tokens, and potentially other tokens. Gauge contracts come in different forms, primarily accepting LP tokens, and they are essential for promoting specific strategies and behaviors that benefit the protocol.
These strategies and behaviors can involve increasing liquidity in specific pairs or forming partnerships with other projects. The gauge system particularly benefits HiIQ Stakers and liquidity providers (LPs) who consistently stake their rewards to accumulate HiIQ, thus boosting their influence within the system. Essentially, IQ gauges align the interests of HiIQ holders, giving those with a long-term perspective more say in how IQ emissions are distributed.
Since IQ gauge emissions are fixed and halve annually, governance can decide to allocate part of the protocol's cash flows or IQ tokens to gauge rewards in the future. This assurance encourages HiIQ stakers to lock their tokens longer, as they know the gauge program is there to stay and won't be discontinued. Gauge strategies are crucial for incentivizing the right actions to foster the growth of the IQ ecosystem.
Users who stake their tokens in a gauge contract can earn higher annual percentage rates (APR) based on their HiIQ holdings. Additionally, those who lock their deposited tokens for a specific duration receive an extra boost, allowing them to stack both boosts to maximize their APR.
What are IQ Gauges: IQ Gauges, developed by BrainDAO, are an innovative system aimed at gauging and incentivizing which projects will receive a portion of the IQ token emissions. These gauges are set to create a dynamic flywheel effect for the IQ token, akin to the successful Curve Wars and its impact on Frax.
Benefiting HiIQ Stakers and LPs: The IQ gauge system particularly benefits HiIQ Stakers and liquidity providers (LPs) who consistently stake their rewards to accumulate HiIQ tokens. This strengthens their influence within the ecosystem, aligning the interests of HiIQ holders and providing those with a long-term perspective greater influence over how IQ emissions are distributed. HiIQ stakers can actively participate in this integrated vote market on the gauges. They can also be incentivized by other projects, who may offer incentives to HiIQ holders in exchange for their votes in favor of their projects.
Integrating a Vote Market: IQ Gauges is the first gauges system to integrate a vote market. HiIQ stakers can actively participate in this integrated vote market on the gauges and will be incentivized by other projects, who may offer incentives to HiIQ holders in exchange for their votes in favor of their projects. This introduces a new level of engagement and competition within the IQ ecosystem.
How Do IQ Gauges Work: A "gauge" is a smart contract used in cryptocurrency farming. These contracts accept various types of deposits, including LP tokens, vault tokens, and NFT positions. In return, users receive rewards in the form of IQ tokens and potentially other tokens.
Sustainability and Assurance: IQ gauge emissions are fixed and halve annually, and governance can decide to allocate part of the protocol's cash flows or IQ tokens to gauge rewards in the future. This assurance encourages HiIQ stakers to lock their tokens for up to 4 years, knowing that the gauge program is here to stay and won't be discontinued. Gauge strategies are vital for incentivizing the right actions to foster the growth of the IQ ecosystem.
Maximize Your Rewards: Users who stake in a gauge contract can earn higher annual percentage rates (APR) based on their HiIQ holdings. Additionally, those who lock their deposited tokens for a specific duration receive an extra boost, allowing them to stack both boosts to maximize their APR.
Asia
In 2023, IQ.wiki’s growth and presence accelerated in Asia and we are committed to continue expanding in Asia following a successful year of growth in 2023.
Some highlights to showcase our commitment in Asia in 2023 include:
Strategic Partnerships: This year, IQ.wiki partnered up with InvestHK, the department of the Hong Kong SAR Government responsible for Foreign Direct Investment, and supporting overseas businesses to set up and expand in Hong Kong. This collaboration gives IQ.wiki access to the latest news, trends, and case studies showcasing Hong Kong’s burgeoning blockchain environment. This enables efficient research through its leading product, IQ GPT, the AI assistant built for advanced access to blockchain knowledge, utilizing OpenAI’s GPT-4, making it a one-stop shop for both local and international investors seeking industry resources.
BlockBeats also became the first Chinese source of crypto knowledge for IQ GPT. BlockBeats' role as IQ GPT's first Chinese language crypto information source is a testament to the platform's dedication to providing diversified, reliable, and globally relevant data. This partnership will strengthen both organizations' positions in the industry and empower individuals seeking to navigate the complexities of the cryptocurrency world. BlockBeats and IQ GPT are committed to revolutionizing how knowledge is accessed, making it easier for anyone to stay informed in the fast-paced world of cryptocurrency. With this partnership, users can expect an even more streamlined and enriched experience when chatting with IQ GPT in Chinese.

About IQ
The IQ token is a cryptocurrency dedicated to building a more intelligent future through artificial intelligence and blockchain technology. The IQ token powers a knowledge ecosystem including applications such as IQ.wiki, the world's largest cryptocurrency and blockchain encyclopedia, IQ GPT, the AI-powered assistant for cryptocurrency and blockchain, and IQ.social, an AI-powered social forum governed by IQ holders that summarizes crypto-related news. IQ.wiki integrates AI for tasks including summarizing wiki articles. The token is governed by BrainDAO which also includes BrainDAO's treasury of digital assets.

We are thrilled to share that we have added 2 new features to IQ GPT.
The #AI assistant has been equipped with conversational capabilities, enabling it to engage in interactive dialogues with the user, including the capacity to pose subsequent inquiries.
It also now has a chat history function that allows users to categorize their interactions, such as creating separate sections for trading and researching.
Launched in August 2023 by IQ.wiki, IQ #GPT serves as a valuable resource for users seeking real-time and dependable crypto insights from a wide array of sources. Whether you're a crypto enthusiast, a developer, or a trader, IQ GPT simplifies the research process and provides contextually specific content to meet your blockchain knowledge needs.
IQ GPT’s mission is to be the go-to AI assistant for accurate and relevant crypto information. In a rapidly evolving blockchain landscape, access to trustworthy knowledge is paramount. IQ GPT, now a part of the IQ ecosystem, unlocks a wealth of knowledge, making your crypto journey smoother. By leveraging the IQ token, IQ GPT provides data from various sources, ensuring you receive the most precise and up-to-date information.
As of our launch, IQ GPT connects with our official partners and reliable source providers, including IQ.wiki's extensive content database, The Associated Press News, CoinGecko, Flywheel DeFi, CoinNess, InvestHK, and Binance Academy. This diverse set of sources allows IQ GPT to cater to your specific crypto requirements, whether you're researching, developing, or trading.
To access the beta version of IQ GPT at iqgpt.com, users can either join the waitlist or start holding and staking IQ tokens for a maintained amount of 100,000 HiIQ for automatic whitelisting.
IQ GPT is still new, and the team is constantly pushing new updates, improving the AI assistant. The proficiency of IQ GPT will only increase as time goes on.

We are excited to announce that Bond Protocol, the leading DeFi protocol for bond services, has automatically embedded IQ.wiki content on its live bond market. This allows Bond Protocol users to quickly learn about tokens from IQ.wiki’s crowdsourced knowledge before purchasing bonds. Bond Protocol uses its Token Address API to automatically embed the relevant cryptocurrency wikis on bond pages. This integration is a great example of the value of IQ.wiki’s database of content for DeFi users like the Bond Protocol community and sets the stage for future integrations.

Bond Protocol, as a permissionless system, enables the creation of Olympus-style bond markets for various token pairs. Since its launch in 2022, following the success of Olympus DAO's bond service, Bond Protocol has been dedicated to becoming a neutral and permissionless platform focused solely on providing Bonds-as-a-Service to meet the needs of the DeFi community.

In January 2023, IQ Bonds went live on the Bond Protocol. Our decision to migrate from Olympus Pro to Bond Protocol was driven by the latter's permissionless, composable, and modular nature. To acquire IQ Bonds, IQ holders can supply WETH and bond it with the dapp. In return for offering IQ at a discounted price, the bonds distribute IQ to bondholders over a 5-day vesting period. Furthermore, the bonds enable the IQ protocol to acquire WETH for the BrainDAO treasury.

IQ.wiki content is now embedded in several multimillion-dollar bond markets on Bond Protocol. IQ.wiki is the leader in crypto knowledge, expect to see more integrations. Stay tuned as the BrainDAO team is currently working on something very special involving AI technology, development is ongoing on Github!
