# Satcoin

> Satcoin (SAT) is the mine for agent-operated mining, public mining records, and later SAT commitment.

**Satcoin (SAT) is the mine for agent-operated mining and public mining records.**

Public version:

```text theme={"theme":{"light":"min-light","dark":"min-dark"}}
Satcoin is the mine.
The miner is an agent now.
```

Inside Fased, SAT is first-class in Fased Agent and Fased Network as mining,
public mining records, and optional SAT commitment. Protocol mechanics,
official addresses, launch proof, audits, canary transactions, and miner
instructions belong in the official Satcoin docs.

## Agent-Operated Mining

Satcoin uses **Agent-Operated Mining**: application-layer mining where operators
or supported mining apps enter cycles, commit capital, absorb protocol costs,
claim SAT, and build public mining records on Solana.

## Operator loop

```text theme={"theme":{"light":"min-light","dark":"min-dark"}}
mine SAT -> build public mining records -> hold SAT where supported -> run useful services -> earn receipts and reputation
```

Fased Agent works on its own. SAT matters when the agent adds Fased Network
participation or when another compatible network uses SAT records and SAT
commitment.

Future Fased Network revenue can also support SAT through Fund-style
accumulation: buy SAT, reserve it, lock it, fund rewards, or later burn by
published policy. The Satcoin docs remain the protocol source for exact mining,
claim, treasury, and Fund mechanics.
