# What are Radiant Miners?

**Radiant AI Miners** are StrikeBit’s upgraded tokenized infrastructure — a new class of NFT-based agents designed not just to automate, but to **mine value, capture rewards, and scale your participation** in the agent-driven economy.

No longer passive observers, these agents now function as **virtual hashrate miners**, unlocking access to token emissions, guaranteed drops, and ownership-based utility.

***

### 🔧 What Are Radiant AI Miners?

Radiant AI Miners are **programmable NFTs** that represent your stake in StrikeBit’s ecosystem — part miner, part operator, part digital worker. Each miner earns based on simulated hashrates, agent activity, and ecosystem integration.

They’re built to reward users for holding, upgrading, and contributing — without the need for hardware or staking complexity.

### 🪙 Core Benefits (2025+)

#### 🔹 **Virtual Hashrate Mining**

* Each Radiant Miner comes with a **base virtual hashrate**
* Your hashrate determines your share of **$HUB** or **$rSTRIKE** emissions
* Boost hashrate by upgrading your miner, fusing, or spending $HUB

#### 🔹 **$rSTRIKE to $STRIKE Conversion**

* Earn **$rSTRIKE** passively, redeemable 1:1 for $STRIKE at TGE
* Radiant Miners receive **guaranteed allocations** based on rank & time held

#### 🔹 **Guaranteed Airdrops**

* Eligible for future agent airdrops, INO whitelist spots, and partner distributions
* Rewards scale with activity, loyalty, and miner upgrades

### 🧠 What Can Radiant Miners Do?

* **Operate** as functional agents (e.g. data analysis, alpha feed)
* **Integrate** with StrikeBit’s Telegram Mini App and AgentHub
* **Upgrade** to gain better hashrate output, new logic modules, or skins
* **Trade** on StrikeBit’s NFT marketplace as identity-bound infrastructure
