I wasn't even sure where to post this.

Ive been doing some research. The human brain contains approximately 86billion neurons. There are around 1billion computers connected to the internet. If a program was devised that worked in a p2p fashion, like bitcoin, but to simulate 1000 neurons on each computer and allow them to communicate with all the other simulated neurons on the p2p network we could make a full scale simulated model of the human brain and possibly make the internet self aware. I know it sounds crazy. Depending on the amount of neurons emulated per client you would only need a small percentage of the worlds computers to run the client for it to be more powerful than a human brain.

To give an incentive for the running of the network it could be designed around a cryptocurrency. All you need is each client to simulate a few thousand neurons. A floating blockchain that is flushed after an arbitrary set of time, say 24 hours, after 24 hours the oldest data is lost off of the end of the blockchain, that allows the network to have a working memory the neurons can write directly to this working memory blockchain to be seen by all nodes on the network, this blockchain is coupled with the cryptocurrency block chain that is a long term storage of transaction data and possibly the emulated brains long term memory storage.

This could lead to the first self aware cryptocurrency.

What do you guys think?
