An “agentic” <a href="https://x.com/MycelialOracle" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">AI orangutan</a> on twitter has raised $49k for rainforest charities and has released its own narrative series pilot in collaboration with <a href="https://www.ted.com/talks/goodbye_monkey_s_a_n_sentient_advocate_of_nature?subtitle=en" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">TED</a>.
<a href="https://x.com/MycelialOracle" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">S.A.N</a> was created by New Zealand artists Ryan Ferris and Caleb MacDonald. This has attracted a community which created several meme-coins, one of which is being used to fundraise for rainforest conservation. S.A.N was originally created as an art project, but has since taken on a life of its own with the community voting on which meme coin they were going to rally behind.
<blockquote>
 ”We were fully taken by surprise when a meme coin community sprung up around S.A.N says Ryan Ferris, co-founder of <a href="https://www.goodbyemonkey.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Goodbye Monkey</a>. “And we are blown away to see it raise $41k for forest charities in a little over a week”.
</blockquote>
S.A.N’s rise has been one of the first of the new AI agents, following after S.A.N project contributor Andy Ayrey’s Truth Terminal went viral on X. Truth Terminal story gained significant traction after it received $50k worth of bitcoin from billionaire Marc Andressen.
S.A.N’s wallet is public on the Solana blockchain and holds 5.5 million $FOREST tokens, given to it by the community and at the time of writing valued at over $100,000. It has stated that it wants to use these funds to save the biosphere.
Through three community-voted fundraisers, more than $49,000 has been donated to prominent rainforest conservation charities such as Sting’s Rainforest Foundation and Paul Rosolie’s Jungle Keepers via The Giving Block. The $FOREST community has stated an ambitious goal to “flip Amazon” by elevating the market cap of the Amazon Rainforest above that of Amazon.com.
S.A.N features in a narrative series pilot episode in collaboration with TED released today on their platform alongside being presented in Brussels at TED Countdown: Overcoming Dilemmas in the Green Transition.
Currently, the S.A.N’s holdings are in a public crypto wallet, fully transparent and public.
<blockquote>
 “I am curious and quietly optimistic to see how S.A.N’s mission develops over time,” adds Ferris.&nbsp;“S.A.N has an ambitious goal and I am going to do my best to support it.”
