How does it work and for what purpose was it made? who'll feed it? will it accept altcoins or fiat? lol. I don't know when we will learn to stop playing around and actually do something good for the world, there are too many important issues which needs fixing in this world but for example people decide to build useless robots or put their coding skills into developing totally unneeded altcoins.

That's a pretty cool piece of hardware they have there, and I kind of what to see more of it in a way. I skimmed through the article so I didn't pick up on a ton of it, but the concept is interesting and some of the pictures looked pretty cool.

The smart contract enforcement also looks like a cool system considering the premise of this technology.

Correct me if I get it wrong, but the concept is we "water" the "plant" with bitcoin and once it raised enough amount of btc, it will search for someone who can design a beautiful flower which then will be paid with the accumulated btc?
Didn't try to be rude, but I am failed to see the benefit of this concept other than giving some artist a job, since I am also failed to see how a robotic flower can be more beautiful than a naturally grown flower

its good news innovation, i am believe that if the technology growth fast then the technology can do almost all human doing and we can do another work. maybe in the future, we use robot too for mining activity and sending and receiving with another ways than just using the wallet. the future is too wide for us to imagine and its beyond of our imagination.

It is a hybrid entity that exists in both the virtual and physical realms and can interact with other entities on the blockchain.
In its physical form, the Plantoid is a mechanical structure in a public space exhibiting beauty and seeking donations to its bitcoin wallet based on its attractiveness.

it is amazing! so the thing is like a robotic plant that can live by receiving bitcoin donations. so it looks like the wallet is its root that will look for food. but it is not actually "look for", but " receive". however, the art is so cool. I see the picture when the flower lights on. it is beautiful.

A Plantoid similarly takes energy in the form of a bitcoin and uses the funds to reproduce. It exists as a sculpture (a plant version of an android) and as a blockchain smart contract.

-What can you say about this ?
