# Introduction

**Neuromine** is a next-generation GameFi mining protocol built on **Base**, where mining rewards are driven by strategic intelligence not brute force. Unlike traditional Proof-of-Work systems, Neuromine introduces a new paradigm: **Proof-of-Intelligence (PoI)**.

Players deploy virtual **AI agents** intelligent robots that mine $NEURO tokens based on their efficiency, optimization skills, and smart energy use. The more intelligent your agents become, the more effectively they mine.

Neuromine is not about who spends the most it’s about who **thinks the smartest**.
