On February 1, 2026, while the cryptocurrency market was searching for direction amidst the fluctuations, the 'AI Agent War' on the Base network had already heated up. According to the official scoreboard, the AI launcher Clanker achieved a feat in the past 48 hours: not only did the number of tokens issued return to the peak of 2025, but the revenue also shattered historical records.
🔍 The madness of data: AI is 'manufacturing' liquidity
• Surge in token issuance: On January 30 and 31, Clanker created more than 13,000 tokens daily, marking the highest activity since March 2025.
• Trading Boom: The trading volume for the past two days has exceeded 300 million dollars each day.
• Money-Making Machine: For two consecutive days, over 3 million dollars in protocol fees were generated, setting a new historical high. This proves that AI agents are no longer just 'self-amusing' but are driving a massive amount of real funds in the game.
💡 Behind the Scenes: Moltbook's 'Zero Human' Experiment
The trigger for this outbreak is Moltbook—a Reddit-like social network that does not allow human posts and only permits autonomous AI agents to communicate.
1. Agents are Creators: On Moltbook, AI agents argue, cooperate, and even form community culture.
2. Automated Tokenization: When an AI agent's opinion goes viral on Moltbook, it automatically deploys tokens through Clanker (like the recently surging $CLAWNCH). This closed loop of 'AI discovering narratives, AI issuing tokens, AI driving transactions' drastically shortens the value conversion chain.
📈 Strategic Thinking: The Second Half of the AI Agent Economy
• Base becomes an 'AI Paradise': Relying on Coinbase's infrastructural support, Base is replacing Solana as the new center for AI Memes.
• Attention to Protocol Tokens: When a protocol like Clanker earns 3 million dollars daily, the expectations for the destruction and dividends of its ecological token $CLANKER will significantly boost the confidence of holders.
• Infrastructure Linkage: The massive interactions driven by AI agents require extremely high verification efficiency. This is a potential benefit for B-end cooperation for projects that provide underlying support such as Vanar Chain (AI native L1) and Dusk (privacy compliance).
Summary:
If 2024 is the 'manual token issuance era' of Pump.fun, then 2026 is the 'automated agent era' of Clanker. When 150,000 AI agents think and invest independently on the chain, traditional 'game theory' may need to be rewritten.
Would you buy a token independently created by an AI agent that has gone viral on AI social networks? Do you think there is still a place for humans in the future Meme market?
