Plan & Context

Today, we have six core feature documents for a Solana-based protocol with code implementations and proof of work. Because of the current landscape, we should position ourselves to scale rapidly.

  • Improve documentation, adopting best practices and standardization
  • Make sure we're above industry standards
  • Upload the documents as a knowledge base
  • Task agents with translating our Solana Protocol to other networks like BNB
  • Submit for grants on each network

Problematic Market Landscape

I'd normally not try to scale something so rapidly. Thus far, we have applied for a few grants, but now we're considering the very recent market landscape combined with the larger picture.

Then:

In 2021 these startups had between 500 and 3,000 employees.

Now:

$15 billion valuation for Perplexity with approximately 100 employees and $2 billion valuation for Cursor with under 20 employees while Forbes reports that a half-billion dollar valuation with 10 employees is becoming the new norm.

Then on the other hand, the tools for someone code-illiterate to build and profit from an app have only been truly democratized since the start of 2025; two months. Even with all the time in the world and money to burn in API running the AI around a bug troubleshooting loop, this was largely a pipe dream before then.

So we also have:

16 million new developers entering the field by 2030

These conditions are dangerously precarious.

Our Current Solution

Our protocol aims to create a safe haven, provide educational resources, and foster a community. It is decentralized so they're basically compensated for their contributions. That tokenization facilitates the validation and curation of tools and educational content by design. Instead of marketing, we rain down tokens for productive behaviors and knowledge sharing. With careful planning, where tokens accumulate indicates content value.

  • Our Model Context Protocol server provides LLM-led access to the ecosystem
  • The MCP collects data on usage and usage patterns specifically for community members to own
  • Developers are rewarded for registering MCPs; which we mint as an NFT and track watching how open-source tools are re-built and iterated on
  • Users are rewarded for consuming educational content in videos and articles
  • Well designed tracking of this consumption is used to reward the best creators
  • Users are rewarded for knowledge sharing on a forum
  • 'Virality' or what raises to the top, is a function of behavior as community engagement

When sufficient usage data is collected it is stored in a vector graph, enabling statistical analysis of optimal educational pathways, the best developer tools, and the general direction of development as an industry

This information is very similar to what runs the business models of Instagram, Facebook, et al. who collect and sell user behavior data. The difference here is that the data is kept to empower community.

  • Ownership of that kind of data is currently priceless.
  • Data used to lead the community, who can then lead the industry
  • Formally establish a DAO, vote on the future of the protocol

This approach will be particularly effective at least until the market economy supports the employment of the approximately 6X increase in companies that are needed to employ this growing number of “vibe developers.”

Our example can help people grasp the existence of alternative paths when automation and fusion energy (a 15-minute sustained reaction recently achieved!) inevitably lead to deflation. What we're seeing happen to tech in just two months is eventually going to happen to every industry.

Formalizing Documentation Strategy

Scaling from Solana to Other Networks like BNB

This strategy ensures scalability, fosters community ownership, and aligns with your vision of democratizing education and innovation in Web3 development.

1. Establishing Standards for Solana Protocol Documentation

To ensure consistency and scalability, start by setting clear documentation standards.

  • Structure

    • Introduction: Overview of the protocol, its purpose, and key features.
    • Architecture: Detailed explanation of the protocol's components (e.g., Model Context Protocols, tokenization mechanisms).
    • Code Examples: Include annotated code snippets for key functionalities (e.g., MCP registration, NFT issuance).
    • Proof of Work: Highlight successful implementations or case studies to validate the protocol's utility.

  • Best Practices

    • Use consistent formatting across all documents (e.g., Markdown templates).
    • Adopt a modular approach to allow easy updates and translations.
    • Follow Web3-specific documentation principles such as clear error handling, security guidelines, and integration steps12.

  • Tools

    • Use platforms like GitBook or Docusaurus for hosting dynamic, version-controlled documentation.
    • Integrate auto-updating tools to sync changes in codebases with documentation.

2. Enhancing Knowledge Sharing Among Agents

To enable agents to internalize the Solana Protocol and translate it effectively.

  • Knowledge Base

    • Create a centralized repository of all documentation.
    • Develop a glossary of terms specific to your ecosystem (e.g., MCPs, DAO governance models).

  • Agent Training

    • Build step-by-step guides for agents on how to use the protocol.
    • Include video tutorials and interactive walkthroughs to cater to different learning styles.

  • Automation

    • Use AI tools like GPT-based agents to summarize complex sections into simpler formats for onboarding new agents quickly.

3. Scaling Documentation Across Networks

When translating Solana-specific documentation to other networks like BNB.

  • Framework for Translation

    • Identify network-specific differences (e.g., BNB's staking mechanisms vs. Solana's PoH).
    • Create adaptable templates that highlight universal concepts while allowing for customizations.

  • Cross-Network Mapping

    • Develop a comparative table of features between Solana and other networks (e.g., transaction fees, smart contract languages).
    • Use this as a reference for agents tasked with translation.

  • Code Portability

    • Include equivalent code implementations in network-specific languages (e.g., Solidity for BNB).

4. Community-Centric Documentation

Given your DAO-driven model, community involvement is key.

  • Incentivized Contributions

    • Reward community members with tokens for contributing to or improving documentation.
    • Use NFTs to track contributions and iterations on open-source tools.

  • Curated Resources

    • Maintain high-quality educational content by vetting submissions through DAO governance.
    • Provide selective resources like articles and videos tailored to specific user needs34.

5. Long-Term Vision: Data-Driven Evolution

Leverage your vector graph data to refine documentation.

  • Analyze usage patterns to identify which sections are most accessed or misunderstood.
  • Use insights to optimize content structure and prioritize updates.
  • Share findings with the DAO to align future improvements with community needs.

6. Immediate Next Steps

  1. Task Claude with creating a modular template for Solana Protocol documentation.
  2. Define a roadmap for translating this template into BNB-compatible formats.
  3. Set up an automated pipeline for syncing updates across networks.
  4. Develop an incentivization framework for community contributions.
