In a recent development, the Base wealth effect has been significant. The Delight team has put together a story about one of the main drivers, Clanker, and received official recognition from the team in Northeastern dialect. Below is the original content:

Base has two main shovels: Virtual and Clanker.

The former is an AI agent platform that has been around for almost a year. Recently, Base has seen a large influx, with the virtual asset $VIRTUAL experiencing a meteoric rise to a market cap of over 1.8 billion before falling back to 1.3 billion;

The latter is a post-and-coin AI agent tool on Farcaster, hailing from grassroots origins. Having just been born 20 days ago, the flagship meme coin $CLANKER skyrocketed over 140 million but has since plummeted to around 50 million.

Both have spawned countless stories of overnight riches, with more details available in: "From 0.1 ETH to $840K: How Smart Money Got Rich Overnight Through Base?"

Regarding Virtual, you can refer to Professor @cutepandaweb3's tweet.

Now, let's delve into the research on Clanker:

1. Clanker 101

On Farcaster, mentioning Clanker, providing the token's name, ticker, and header image will allow Clanker to be added to Base for free with an initial market value of around $30,000 in a Uniswap pool (the account Neynar on Farcaster must have a high enough rating, making it difficult for newcomers to launch a coin). You can view all deployed tokens on the official website.

Unlike PumpFun, who charges a 1% transaction fee during the bonding curve phase plus 2 Solana tokens on the Raydium exchange, Clanker does not have a bonding curve. Instead, it collects a 1% fee from Uni v3 as revenue: 40% goes to the coin launcher, and 60% goes to the Clanker team—this revenue split may change, see the official documentation for details.

2. PumpFun vs Clanker

1. Mechanism:

Clanker = Cast to PumpFun (Posting behavior on Farcaster is called cast)

2. Revenue:

PumpFun has generated approximately $360 million in revenue within 10 months, while Clanker has generated around $7 million in revenue within 20 days.
Note: Clanker's total market cap is less than $200 million, with a total trading volume of approximately $750 million and fewer than 100,000 people participating in the trades.

3. Token Issuance:

PumpFun has issued a total of 4 million tokens, with a daily addition of 1%; Clanker has issued approximately 5,000 tokens in total, with a daily addition of 10%.

4. Top Tokens:

PumpFun: $Pnut (1.1B), $GOAT (700M), $Chillguys (370M)
Clanker: $CLANKER (50M), $ANON (21M), $LUM (18M)
$CLANKER is the first meme coin issued by Clanker, naturally becoming the flagship without official empowerment;
$LUM is another coin issued by the Aether bot associated with Clanker;
$ANON is a coin anonymously issued by someone using Anoncast related to Clanker.

Three, ANON × Clanker

Anoncast × Clanker = Anonfun

Originally, there was only Anoncast, without Anonfun. Later, the team divided the functionality of Anoncast in half: one half still called Anoncast for anonymous posting, and the other half called Anonfun for anonymous plate throwing.

The grafting of these two made the real-name PVP of "Socialfi games" regress to the anonymous PVP of "Gamefi games" — there is no essential difference between betting on Anonfun on Base and finding angles to bet on Pumpfun on SOL.

Make sure to note: Anonymous = without authority, and you can throw a plate on the Twitter gold standard account of anoncast with just a 6wu loan, which can be said to have no threshold at all.

You can refer to the specific rules in my tweet.

Currently, the total MC of the plates thrown by Anonfun is less than 3M, see Anonfun Dune for details.

Four, Team

The team behind Clanker is an anonymous team called proxystudio, and they are currently addressing the BOT front-running issue.

Next, they also promise to add the following to Clanker: exploration function, presale function, advanced or custom fee allocation tool; the next step is to draw pies to build community, brand, operations, content, and more (including both Clanker and any ecosystem projects that require content — creating interaction around Clanker to receive rewards from projects and creators)

Five, Trading Tools

Everyone can choose mainstream BOTs such as gmgn, pepeboost, and so on, or choose mainstream wallets like the OKX Wallet. Currently, the underlying transaction tool development is still not very complete, and the Pixiu often fails to detect it clearly, so everyone should be careful when trading.

There is also a wallet called Rainbow, which has a partnership with the Clanker official team. It automatically verifies Clanker coins related to a certain market value and trading volume every 5 minutes. The user interface experience is relatively good, but the security detection feature is also not perfect.
