Eliza Labs launched an account called auto.fun last month, and Shaw, a core member of Eliza Labs, announced on social media X that the project will be launched this week. He previously mentioned that he might consider making a launch pad or community product bound to the $ai16z token. Can the emergence of auto.fun change the current decline of Eliza tokens, and what projects that will be listed on auto.fun are worth our attention?
What is auto.fun?
auto.fun is a community-based open source token launcher and No Code AI Agent maker that allows anyone to create autonomous AI agents capable of performing tasks across social media platforms, DeFi applications, and other web3 services.
In addition to launching tokens, creators can earn fees here, and external communities can communicate, create content or CTO tokens here. ElizaLabs claims to develop auto.fun to support the development of AI Agents at the economic level, and auto.fun will be different from ordinary token launch platforms, which will bring changes at the narrative level.
Officials said that auto.fun adopted a token model that is fairer than previous launch platforms, combining the bonding curve and fair issuance principles. It allows project teams to lock up to 50% of tokens before listing to help reduce sniping. It also introduced a liquidity NFT mechanism and shared part of the handling fees with token creators. Officials believe that this token model can promote long-term coordination between AI agent developers and users, ensuring the sustainable growth of the project and fair participation of retail investors.
Pumpfun scam coin before launch
Before the project was officially launched, auto.fun had already caused controversy, or more precisely, Shaw had sparked community discussion. The reason was that in recent days, several suspected counterfeit auto.fun tokens were issued on PumpFun, and Shaw used a public wallet address to purchase several of them. These tokens began to rise, and some even instantly broke through the market value of 2.5 million US dollars, and then quickly went to zero. Interestingly, after the community CTO, the token rose several times again, and the current price is 1.5 million US dollars, which coincides with the community CTO function of auto.fun, which is full of irony.
After being abused by netizens, he was suspected of being short of money and opening the market to cut leeks. Shaw firmly denied that he was a Dev, and explained that I bought a few random coins on Pumpfun and it started to rise. I said I would donate it, but then someone told me it was a SCAM, so I burned the tokens. Sorry for the confusion. I just wanted to play around.
This is not the first time that Shaw has been abused by the community. In the previous Eliza community coin incident, he even used a public address to buy multiple fuck shaw MemeCoins with a market value of only a few thousand dollars. In theory, every blockchain player has the freedom to buy and sell, but as a project leader, when your address is in the public eye, there is a strong guiding force, and you should consider the balance between the rights and interests of retail investors and FUN.
What are the Alpha opportunities?
Although the markets expectations for the project have plummeted due to the previous turmoil, there are still more than 15 projects in different fields that have decided or are interested in joining auto.fun, including some excellent teams. The editor has selected several of the more popular projects for introduction, which is not intended as investment advice.
Comput 3 AI
Comput3 is a project that provides GPU computing power for AI Apps and AI Agents, initiated by Dmitry Nedospasov. Currently, the Comput3 API can be used for video generation, open source model reasoning, speech generation, private encoding, and portrait generation. The project has now opened a webpage with an open API interface, and claims that GPU usage costs only $0.5 per hour, but has not disclosed the specific computing power.
In addition to the first time, the project has also developed a TG MINIAPP for conversation and chat, and cooperated with Roolz AI to use Comput3s GPU with the LLM model to generate AI animation. The project claims that it is currently testing the API/MCP interface that allows AI Agent to use freely. Future products will allow large model training, large-scale video generation and algorithm model calculations, cooperate with BTC mines to provide idle production capacity, build GPU derivatives, and create an on-chain GPU market.
DogLife.AI
DogLifeAI was initiated by Dr Pepe. The concept is to bring a complete dog to the chain and make it immortal. Previously, Dr Pepe issued his own biology popular science social AI Agent DrPepe.ai Agent. Its token $Bryan once reached a market value of 40 million US dollars, but has now fallen back to 2.8 million US dollars.
It is worth mentioning that in December 2024, DrPepe and his AI alluded to the longevity therapy hyperbaric oxygen therapy HBOT shared by Silicon Valley tycoon Bryan Johnson, who promoted longevity, which was actually an article he shared on the Arweave chain the day before. Then he led the community to believe that Bryan was the illusion of DrPepe, which is why its related token ticker is $Bryan instead of DrPepe. Although DogLifeAI currently has no CA, DrPepe allows users to use $Bryan to pre-purchase DogLifeAI tokens.
Sigama Music
Sigma Music is a social music AI agent incubated by the AI data platform itheum. In addition to allowing users to upload music and create music radio stations, the platform behind it also provides a token launch pad for users to turn their own music into Memecoin.
Kryptonites CZAI
CZAI is an AI agent that provides traders with an efficient and intelligent assistant, simplifies investment decisions and improves the transparency of fund management. Some community members claim that CZAI was made by the DEFAI project Kryptonite, but the two parties have not yet connected on social media.
The project team mentioned that the AI Agent will have multi-signature “multi-sig” operations and transparent fund management, and provide users with personalized trading suggestions by monitoring market charts, analyzing economic data (such as the Fed’s dynamics) and community sentiment. It will also include on-chain information from multiple chains, and can search for new tokens, track profit opportunities, and discover potential investment opportunities on multiple blockchains.
Astra
Astra is a multi-chain payment solution based on the Lightning Network, which aims to provide efficient and scalable payment infrastructure for AI Agen. Astras core product is the Astra SDK, which allows developers to integrate native Lightning Network payment functions into any application, blockchain or AI agent.
The Eliza team seems to be full of confidence in auto.fun, and after a long period of project preheating, they intend to bring some new concepts to the market. However, after experiencing the token incident before the launch, it is still unknown whether the market can still buy into this concept narrative. But in any case, this also brings a hint of novelty to the long-dormant CryptoAI field.
