The cryptocurrency, which some in the cryptocurrency believed was created by the AI agent itself, was airdropped to it, which then proceeded to promote it. The coin was launched on Pump.fun, a popular Solana memecoin launchpad that helps prevent scams.
Its creatorâs wallet address is associated with the launch of other memecoins, and doesnât belong to Truth Terminal, which operates semi-autonomously. It has a human handler approving its posts on social media.
The botâs creator, Andy Ayrey, has said itâs operating a âfine tune on topâ of Metaâs Llama 3.1 language model and was âoriginally intended to be a wayâ for him to âautomate jailbreaking other LLMs to say naughty things.â
The trader that made $2.88 million with GOAT also spent $182,000 to buy 7.3 million $BILLY tokens, and sold them all later on for $593,000, leading to a $411,000 profit, or around 226% on their initial investment.
