Future Program: Intrinsic Market Resilience (IMR)

Solicitation # DARPA-SN-26-110

The Intrinsic Market Resilience (IMR) program, issued by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency under solicitation DARPA-SN-26-110, seeks to protect critical economic sectors from systemic risks and adversarial attacks targeting modern electronic market interfaces. While current regulations focus on profit-driven manipulation, this initiative addresses the gap in protecting markets from actors intending to cause general disruption and economic chaos. The program aims to ensure the stability of civilian and military resources by making market designs fundamentally more resilient to attack. To achieve this, the IMR program will integrate Large Language Model automation with rigorous mathematical modeling to identify and repair hidden market weaknesses. The technical approach involves creating formal notations from regulatory and technical specifications to develop machine-analyzable models. By formulating resilience conjectures, the program will prove market stability or generate counterexamples to identify vulnerabilities, ultimately recommending specific design repairs to safeguard the integrity of U.S. markets.
