AI Memecoins are cryptocurrencies created with the help of artificial intelligence.
Essentially, people are training large language models to launch a Memecoin and create a character for it on social media—a character that becomes the spokesperson for the Memecoin. The design of this character is based on the creator's understanding, perspectives, and viewpoints.
Launching a Memecoin itself isn't difficult; the real challenge lies in bringing the character to life. Creators can tailor these characters for specific niche audiences.
For example, if I were to launch an AI Memecoin, I might shape its character to talk about both cryptocurrency and spirituality.
The most fascinating part of this experiment is character development—you can present the character across different platforms, even turn it into a virtual avatar to make it more interactive. This character can not only share ideas but also engage in conversations.
This is where @virtuals_io comes in: they help creators launch Memecoins, build characters, create avatars, integrate them across platforms, and launch them via their own publishing platform. The Virtuals protocol runs on Base, and they have a Memecoin called $LUNA—a digital girl character you can interact with through the website’s chat interface. The market cap of $LUNA is around $10 million.
The concept of LUNA and other Memecoins powered by AI agents originated from the success of the Memecoin $GOAT and its character @truth_terminal, known for creating hilarious memes.
Read the backstory here.
They also launched a cryptocurrency called Fartcoin. Both coins gained significant attention on Crypto Twitter (CT). $GOAT once reached a market cap of $400 million. A popular rumor surrounding both coins is that they’re backed by billionaire venture capitalist Marc Andreessen.
This rumor plays a crucial role—it reminds me of NFTs. Compelling narratives add greater appeal to AI Memecoins, and when the character behind the token reinforces the story by posting high-quality niche content (currently mostly tweets), people become more emotionally invested. They promote and celebrate these tokens even more passionately.
Everything is moving extremely fast.
For instance, $FART achieved a 1000x return within just two days. Such rapid gains clearly show signs of a bubble unless the system evolves and stabilizes into a mature phase.
To reach maturity, I believe AI-trained Memecoins need to expand their characters beyond being mere tweet bots into virtual avatars capable of interacting with users on live streaming platforms.
In addition, there should be a tipping feature allowing users to tip the virtual avatar, with those tips funneled through smart contract logic to burn tokens, thereby reducing supply. This creates a deflationary AI Memecoin.
An AI Agent-Run Memecoin Launchpad
Memes are part of internet culture, often originating from posts, images, or videos on social media. Take the recently viral meme "Moodeng," which rapidly gained popularity online as an example.
To Memecoin enthusiasts, this is obvious. With so many people launching Memecoins tied to trending memes, it’s hard to tell which one will gain traction quickly. That’s the classic dilemma when investing in newly emerging meme trends.
Unless you're privy to insider information, you may consistently lose money. There’s no fairness here. If everyone had a chance to buy into the next hottest Memecoin based on a trending meme, it could be a game-changer—for many, at least. Not perfectly fair, since early movers will always exist, but at least enabling mid-stage rather than late-stage entry.
The idea is to use AI agents to automatically detect new memes on knowyourmeme.com, instantly create a Memecoin around it, develop a character, and build a launchpad using AI-generated code combined with human testing.
It’s somewhat like the pumpdotfun model, where people provide liquidity for Memecoins, except here we deploy an AI agent to manage the Memecoin’s character. This agent promotes the coin on Twitter to attract more attention. The more attention the meme receives and the better-crafted the character, the more people will flock to the Memecoin. Best of all, the entire process is automated.
This launchpad would be fully operated by AI agents with zero human intervention. It could generate massive revenue, similar to pumpdotfun. If successful, earning $100 million annually is possible. These AI agents would distribute 70% of the revenue to holders of the AI Meme Launchpad’s native token, allocate 20% to bootstrap protocol-side liquidity, and donate 10% to charities aligned with the nature of the Memecoins launched on the platform.
This is one of my core ideas. You can explore more concepts involving AI agent-trained tokens, such as @nashfinanceX, where AI agents are trained to launch dynamic crypto indices. AI agents could also be trained to find optimal DeFi strategies for investors. Using AI agents reduces labor costs, and these savings can be converted into incentives, sharing most of the revenue with token holders. In the long run, incentives are essential to maintain project appeal. Narratives may initially attract users—everyone wants to catch the next $GOAT or $FART—but 99.99% may never see such returns again. Disappointment may follow, and narratives will lose their power.
The only sustainable path is thinking long-term, delivering lasting value, using memes to culturally unite people, while offering ongoing incentives to keep them engaged—because even after the initial hype fades, they still need economic reasons to stay and grow together.
