Aurora Labs, the developer behind the Near-based next-generation blockchain Aurora, has unveiled a network and decentralized trading platform for the artificial intelligence (AI) meme coin Turbo (TURBO) to advance the token’s ecosystem.
According to a press release shared with CryptoPotato, Aurora Labs has launched TurboChain and TurboSwap in collaboration with the Near Protocol. TurboChain is the first AI meme coin blockchain and a virtual chain for TURBO, while TurboSwap offers decentralized trading with cross-chain liquidity for the ecosystem.
Aurora Labs Unveils TurboChain and TurboSwap
Per the announcement, TurboChain will offer its users scalability, customization, and unmatched speed. Built using Aurora’s advanced Virtual Chain technology, the network allows developers to create decentralized applications and enables cross-chain compatibility with Ethereum, Near Protocol, and other major chains.
“By blending advanced technology with a thriving community-driven approach, TurboChain pushes the boundaries of blockchain innovation and exemplifies the future of AI-powered meme coins,” Aurora Labs stated.
The launch of the TurboChain will enhance Turbo’s utility as the asset will become the network’s native token, powering all transactions and playing a central role in the ecosystem. The community-run meme coin, created from the ChatGPT prompt “create the next great meme coin, starting with a budget of just $69,” currently operates on the Ethereum blockchain.
Noteworthily, TurboSwap will enable users to access liquidity from several networks, including Ethereum, Near, Bitcoin, Solana, Arbitrum, Base, and TurboChain.
Alex Shevchenko, CEO of Aurora Labs, said: “TurboChain and TurboSwap show the power of Aurora Virtual Chains. They can turn ideas into scalable blockchain ecosystems. With the Turbo Token community, we’re setting a new standard for seamless blockchain innovation and interoperability.”
Powering Communities to Use Aurora Cloud
Aurora Labs intends to launch 1,000 interconnected blockchains in 2025, and TurboChain and TurboSwap represent the start of this plan. This plan aims to empower communities to use Aurora Cloud, which enables innovation at a low cost and with simplicity.
Aurora Cloud allows innovators to deploy scalable virtual chains without any tech skills and at a very low cost compared to traditional financial systems. Aurora Labs says launching a blockchain on Aurora Cloud is as easy as launching a Shopify store.
Meanwhile, TURBO recently hit an all-time high, rallying to $0.014 on December 11, per data from CoinMarketCap. At the time of writing, the token was worth $0.010, slightly up in the past 24 hours.
