This article will introduce how to participate in the Virtuals ecosystem, and briefly discuss what is the correct gold mining posture in the Virtuals ecosystem? (Preliminary summary: AI Agents Gold Rush) $VIRTUAL's listing on Bithumb soared 65%, taking stock of popular ecological coins AIXBT, MUSIC...) (Background supplement: A complete explanation of the hottest AI Agent track in recent times: meme coins, distribution platforms and Infrastructure) Recently, Virtuals Protocol, an AI agent establishment platform on the Base ecological chain, has become increasingly popular. According to Coingecko’s data, its protocol governance token VIRTUAL has increased by more than 130% in the past week, AI proxy tokens on the platform such as AIXBT have increased by more than 290%, GAME has increased by more than 420%, VADER has increased by more than 400%, and LUNA has increased by more than 34%. The wealth effect is bound to attract project developers and on-chain gold diggers - according to Dune data, more than 8,779 AI agent tokens have been launched on the Virtuals platform. Since November 29, the number of AI agent tokens created every day has surged, about the same as in the past. twice. Many community members who are deeply involved in the Virtuals ecosystem said that compared to Solana Meme, the current number of participants in the Virtuals ecosystem is still smaller, the level of PVP is lighter, and it has a good money-making effect. In order to smooth the information gap and enable friends who are unfamiliar with Base and Virtuals ecology to seize new opportunities, Odaily Planet Daily will introduce how to participate in Virtuals ecology in this article, and briefly discuss what the correct gold mining posture is in Virtuals ecology. Introduction to Virtuals Although Virtuals Protocol is an AI agent establishment platform, it draws on the design of pump.fun in its issuance method. Anyone can deploy AI agents with one click through fun.virtuals, while achieving fair issuance of AI agent tokens. Similar to pump.fun, Virtuals are also divided into internal and external disks. When the number of tokens purchased in the internal disk fun.virtuals reaches 42420 VIRTUAL, the corresponding AI agent tokens will be transferred to the external disk app.virtuals, and the tokens in the internal disk will be transferred to the external disk app.virtuals. The currency liquidity will be deposited into Uniswap, and the tokens purchased by users in the internal market will also be automatically converted into external market tokens and stored in the wallet. It costs 10 VIRTUAL (currently about 13 USDT) to establish an AI proxy token in the internal market, and a 1% handling fee is charged for both buying and selling. Participate in the tutorial Purchase VIRTUAL Whether you are trading AI agent tokens within Virtuals internal or external trading, you need to use the Virtuals protocol token VIRTUAL, so the first step is to purchase VIRTUAL and deposit it into the Base chain.Currently, VIRTUAL has been listed on exchanges such as Bybit, Gate.io and Bitget. Users can directly purchase and withdraw coins to the chain on the exchange. At the same time, players can also choose to exchange VIRTUAL through DEX. The largest liquidity pool on the VIRTUAL chain is at Aerodrome, and BTC or ETH can be used to exchange VIRTUAL with low slippage. Of course, players who are unfamiliar with on-chain operations can also exchange directly through the OKX wallet, which will automatically help users find the optimal exchange path on the chain. To purchase tokens in the internal disk, first enter the Virtual internal disk website fun.virtuals, as shown below. The interface is similar to pump.fun. Click on the upper right corner to link the wallet. Currently, decentralized wallets such as OKX Wallet, Metamask and Phantom are supported. There are three sorting methods for tokens created in the internal market, "Featured", "Market Cap" and "Latest". If it is to check and filter the recently created AI proxy tokens in a timely manner, the "Latest" sorting method is generally used. The homepage will display the logo, founder, market capitalization, token name and introduction of each token. Click on a token at random, as shown below. The page includes the token K-line, buying and selling area and internal trading progress, as well as an interactive area unique to AI agent tokens. Players can communicate with the AI ​​agent via text, and the agent will automatically respond to player questions and is not controlled by the dev. However, the disadvantage of Virtuals internal trading is that it is impossible to see the specific transaction volume and holding addresses, so we need the assistance of other tools such as GMGN and basescan. Copy the token contract address at the top of the browser, you can visually view the token holder information on GMGN, and you can view the specific transaction volume on basescan. Purchase tokens in the external disk. When the progress of the internal disk is full, the tokens will be moved to the external disk app.virtuals. As shown below, the homepage displays basic information about all external tokens, including token market value, daily changes, liquidity, holding addresses, etc. Compared with the internal market, the information about AI agents and their tokens in the external market is also more complete. By randomly selecting a token in the external market, you can view a clearer K-line chart, and you can directly swap tokens on the K-line chart. The external tokens are actually no different from ordinary tokens, and users can also search and purchase them in other DEXs. Gold mining strategies in the Virtuals ecosystem. Users who often use pump.fun and related tools to play Meme may complain that Virtuals does not have supporting tools to help scan chains and discover Alpha. The purpose of pump.fun's Meme issuance is to continuously attract players' attention, so thousands of Memes are launched on the internal market every day. Players choose to buy a token mostly from the perspective of hot spots and attention. Although the internal and external disk mechanism of Virtuals is similar to pump.fun in terms of issuance method, it is ultimately an AI agent establishment platform, not a Meme asset issuance platform. At present, the AI ​​agent tokens with larger market value running out of the Virtuals ecosystem basically have practical functions, such as the data capture and analysis AI agent AIxbt, the virtual idol AI agent Luna, the interactive learning AI agent GAME, etc. Therefore, if you want to find gold in the Virtuals ecosystem, you may need to think differently from playing pump.fun, and find and invest in AI agents that truly have unique value. One fact is that more than 90% of the AI ​​proxy tokens born in Virtuals are "junk" that rubs against AI. It is not easy to wait for an AI proxy token with unique value to appear. However, because the degree of PVP is relatively light, the token issuance The initial market value is low, so there is enough time for players to invest in research and get on board.
