Every day, countless valuable market insights come and go and disappear into the digital ether. A rumour about a new memecoin here, a new cracked team with a solid project there. This valuable information is shared freely on social media or via messaging apps and usually benefits the platforms in the form of engagement, but rarely the source.

Today we’re taking an important step to make your valuable insights work not just for the platforms, but first and foremost for you. Cue the Rumor Mill.

Rumor Mill: Contribute to and benefit from the valuable knowledge of the community

Rumor Mill is the first major update to our Alpha project and, to our knowledge, the first attempt to monetise data via social media apps. It allows you to share your insights and get rewarded for it, through a trusted channel: Telegram.

Here’s how it works:

1. Log into Telegram: You’ll need a Telegram account to interact with our bot Gordon (@TheGordon_bot). Just scan the QR code and start talking to Gordon or click here.

1. Start a session: You can start sharing your insights immediately. Do you know a certain project is striking a big partnership? Have you discovered a new high-yielding protocol? Do the patterns on the charts point to a big breakout? There are countless valuable insights you could share with Gordon.
2. Intelligent interaction: Our bot guides you through the conversation, asks clarifying questions and ensures that the information you provide is specific, accurate and valuable.
3. Structured Data: During your chat, the agent intelligently categorises the information (e.g. Technology -> AI -> Specific company -> Rumor about product launch) and assigns metrics such as sentiment scores.
4. You will be rewarded with $ALYO tokens for your contribution and if your insights prove to be correct, you will receive additional rewards.

Gordon’s Memecoin Fair Launch: AlphaTokenyo ($ALYO)

To kick off Rumor Mill’s internal economy we launched the $ALYO coin on pump.fun. We want to make the launch as transparent as possible so that everyone closely following Datafund will a fair access to $ALYO after it is announced. The tokenomics is as follows:

Contract Address on Solana: BWMJ3HzgtPWcK2SSqwi1Mi6YtwBNQKMMpotY9SPfpump

You can buy $ALYO on Pump Swap

$ALYO Tokenomics:

• Total supply: 1,000,000,000 $ALYO
• Datafund — 45%
• Gordon — 20%
• Community — 35 %

No VC insiders or presale initates waiting to dump. The Datafund team is committed to use $ALYO in such a way to ensure the long-term growth of its ecosystem.

We would also like to emphasise that Gordon will be spending its tokens in waves as outlined in the table below:

Please note that $ALYO is not Datafund’s primary token; instead, it is a memecoin experiment that will facilitate a novel data exchange over Telegram, which is explained in more detail in the section above.

The future of quality data acquisition

Just as Alpha is our attempt to turn disparate data into valuable assets, the Rumor Mill is a test to create a high quality data acquisition funnel via social media. We are pioneering this method to collect high quality data directly from knowledgeable sources or simply through the wisdom of the crowd. At the same time, we want to reward contributors in a fair way while preserving their privacy and freedom of action.

The more insights — rumours, observations, pattern analysis — that flow into the knowledge base, the more powerful it becomes in predicting events. Every confirmed insight shared with Gordon adds a new piece to the overall intelligence of the system. The system will gradually get better and more proficient at:

• Identifying subtle patterns
• Detecting early signals
• Validating information
• Predicting potential outcomes

Therefore, each contribution is not just a single data point. It has a direct impact on increasing predictive power, is rewarded for the quality of the contribution and at the same time paves the way for the entire community to benefit from the combined insights.

So when you talk to Gordon, you’re not just talking to a bot, you’re in the process of creating a unique market intelligence machine! And in keeping with the OG crypto ethos, you retain full control over the access to and history of the data submitted throughout the process.

This entire process allows us to:

• Improve the agents’ capabilities: Improve our AI’s ability to elicit, verify and structure complex information through real-world interaction.
• Understand user dynamics: Learn how to best incentivise and categorise users based on the quality of their contributions.
• Build ethical foundations: Create a model where users are empowered and potentially rewarded for sharing their data, starting with the novel concept of monetising social insights.

Join the Movement

We already pointed to where our development will be going in our Alpha announcement blog, now we’re making good on our promise. Be among the first to experience a new paradigm in data sharing. Help us test and refine the Rumor Mill, contribute your unique insights, and be part of building a fairer data economy.
