A launchpad for AI agents, where each agent has a token and a revenue share. Virtuals lets somebody deploy an AI agent and tokenize it, so the agent has a market and holders can share in what it earns. It began on Base and later extended to Solana. It is the clearest example of the crossover between the AI narrative and token launches.

What it does well
- Tokens are attached to something that exists and does work, not only to a joke
- Agents can generate real revenue, which gives the token an actual cash flow story
- Available across more than one chain, which is unusual for a launchpad
What to watch
- Most agents earn very little, so the cash flow story is theoretical for nearly all of them
- AI narrative cycles have been violent in both directions
- An agent that stops being maintained keeps its token and loses its reason to exist
If you are going to use it
Use a wallet that holds nothing else
Fund it with the amount you are willing to lose and the gas to move it. A bad approval or a bad buy then costs you exactly that and nothing more.
Check the pair on a viewer first
Copy the contract address into DEX Screener or Birdeye and look at holders, liquidity and pool age before the chart. That order matters.
Size it as money already spent
Not a position, not an investment. The base rate for this whole category is that most of them go to zero, so the only sane amount is one that does not change anything if it does.
Decide the exit before you enter
Write down what would make you sell, in numbers, while you are still calm. Nobody makes that decision well during a candle.
Common questions
Is Virtuals Protocol a scam?
No, it is a tool, and it works the way it says it does. The tokens created on it are a separate question, and many of those are designed to take your money. Judge each token, never the launchpad it came from.
What does graduation mean?
The bonding curve has filled, so the launchpad closes it and moves the liquidity into an ordinary pool on a DEX. After that the token trades like any other and the launchpad is no longer involved.
Can the creator pull the liquidity?
On a curve based launch the liquidity is held by the contract and migrates on graduation, so the classic liquidity pull is not the risk here. The realistic risk is the creator holding a large share of the supply and selling it into you, which looks nothing like a rug pull and costs you the same.
Do I need an account?
No. You connect a Solana wallet, which shares your public address and nothing else. Signing a transaction is the part that moves money, so read what each one says.
