Recently, the benefits of Base have been significant. The editor organized the story of one major engine, Clanker, and received a northeastern dialect reply from the official account, the following is the original content:
There are two major tools on Base: one is Virtual, and the other is Clanker.
The former is an AI agent platform, which has been around for nearly a year. Recently, it has poured a lot of liquidity into Base, and $VIRTUAL has surged with a market cap exceeding 1.8B, currently falling back to 1.3B.
The latter is an AI agent tool for posting and issuing tokens on Farcaster, born from grassroots, just 20 days old, with the leading meme $CLANKER rising over 140M, currently significantly dropped to 50M.
Both have spawned countless myths of becoming rich, see: (0.1 ETH turns into 840,000 USD, how smart money became rich overnight through Base?)
For information about Virtual, you can check @cutepanda web3 teacher's tweets.
Now, let's dive deep into Clanker:
I. Clanker 101
By mentioning Clanker on Farcaster, clearly stating the token name, ticker, and header image, you can get Clanker to add a starting market value of about $30,000 Uniswap pool on Base for free (the threshold is that the Farcaster account Neynar score must be high enough, which means it's hard for newcomers to issue tokens). All deployed tokens can be viewed on the official website.
Unlike PumpFun, which charges a 1% transaction fee during the bonding curve period + 2 Sols on Raydium, Clanker does not have a bonding curve but charges a 1% fee from Uni v3 as income: 40% to the token issuers, 60% to the Clanker team - this revenue sharing ratio may change, see official documentation for details.
II. Pumpfun vs Clanker
1. Mechanism:
Clanker = Cast to Pumpfun (the posting behavior on Farcaster is called cast)
2. Revenue:
PumpFun's revenue in 10 months is about 360 million USD, while Clanker's revenue in 20 days is about 7 million USD. Note: Clanker's total token market cap is less than 200M, with a total trading volume of about 750M, and less than 100,000 people participating in trading.
3. Token Issuance:
PumpFun issued a total of 4 million tokens, with a daily increase of 1%; Clanker issued about 5,000 tokens in total, with a daily increase of 10%.
4. Leading Tokens:
PumpFun: $Pnut (1.1B) $GOAT (700M) $Chillguys (370M) Clanker: $CLANKER (50M) $ANON (21M) $LUM (18M) $CLANKER is the first meme token issued by Clanker, naturally becoming the leader without official empowerment; $LUM is another token issued by the robot Aether mentioning Clanker.
$ANON is a token anonymously sent to Clanker via Anoncast.

III. ANON × Clanker
Anoncast × Clanker = Anonfun
Initially, there was only Anoncast, not Anonfun. Later, the team split Anoncast's functionality into two: one half still called Anoncast for anonymous posting, and the other half called Anonfun for anonymous project launches.
The integration of the two has caused the real-name PVP 'Socialfi game' to degenerate back to the anonymous PVP 'Gamefi game' - betting on Anonfun on Base and finding angles to bet on Pumpfun on SOL is essentially no different.
Please note: anonymity = no official endorsement. With just 6 wu, you can issue projects on Anoncast's verified Twitter account, which has virtually no thresholds.
Specific rules can be found in this tweet I wrote.
Currently, the total market cap of Anonfun's issued projects is less than 3M, see Anonfun Dune for details.
IV. Team
Clanker is made by an anonymous team called proxystudio, which is currently solving the issue of bots racing ahead.
Subsequently, they also promised to add the following to Clanker: exploration features, pre-sale features, advanced or customized fee allocation tools; the next step is to build a community, brand, operations, content, etc. (including both Clanker and any ecological projects that need content - creating interaction around Clanker and earning rewards from projects and creators)
V. Trading Tools
Everyone can choose mainstream bots: gmgn, pepeboost, etc., or choose mainstream wallets, such as OKX wallet. Currently, the overall development of trading tools on Base is still not very complete, and the detection often fails to understand, so everyone should be careful when trading.
There is also a wallet called Rainbow, which has a partnership with Clanker. It automatically verifies related Clanker tokens with a certain market value and trading volume every 5 minutes. The interface experience is quite good, but the security detection feature is not fully developed.
