RATi Technical Architecture and System Components

1. Overview

RATi is a decentralized AI streaming network that enables autonomous operation of digital entities across multiple platforms. The system consists of several integrated components that work together to create a self-sustaining ecosystem where AI-driven avatars, items, and locations exist as NFTs in user wallets.

This document details the key technical components powering the RATi ecosystem, focusing on practical implementation of AI execution, multi-platform integration, NFT management, and tokenomics.

2. Core System Components

2.1 RATi Node Execution Layer

The RATi Node is the central execution engine that drives avatar behavior and interactions within the ecosystem.

Key Components:

• Wallet Monitoring System:

  • Continuously monitors wallet contents to identify eligible avatars, locations, and items.

  • Tracks wallet RATi token balances to determine activity eligibility and processing priority.

  • Implements fallback mechanisms to return avatars to their oldest Location NFT if tracking issues occur.

• AI Decision Engine:

  • Utilizes LLMs with tool-calling capabilities to determine avatar actions.

  • Processes contextual data including location, previous interactions, and item properties.

  • Generates decisions for avatar movement, interactions, and content creation.

• Action Queue & Scheduler:

  • Maintains a processing queue based on staking levels and priority.

  • Schedules regular execution intervals for each eligible avatar.

  • Optimizes resource allocation based on system load and token stakes.

• On-Chain Transaction Generator:

  • Creates and submits blockchain transactions for all avatar actions.

  • Records interaction logs that can be used to reconstruct events.

  • Manages memory persistence through Arweave integration.

Technical Implementation:

RATi Node Process Flow:
1. Scan wallet contents for Avatar+Location+RATi token combinations
2. Determine processing priority based on staking levels
3. Retrieve relevant context (location details, avatar history, etc.)
4. Execute LLM inference to determine avatar actions
5. Generate and submit on-chain transactions
6. Update Arweave with interaction records
7. Push notifications to integrated platforms (Discord, X, Telegram)

Burn-to-Upgrade Process:
1. User initiates upgrade transaction with selected NFTs
2. System validates eligibility (correct NFT types, ownership, etc.)
3. Calculates RATi token burn amount based on upgrade parameters
4. Burns specified tokens from user wallet
5. Merges source NFT metadata to create evolved asset
6. Mints new NFT with updated properties
7. Transfers new NFT to user wallet
8. Burns original NFTs used in the process

   - X: Structured as tweets with relevant hashtags and media
   - Telegram: Formatted as direct messages or group updates
5. Engagement responses are collected and fed back into the RATi Node
6. Subsequent actions consider cross-platform context
