Eliza Labs launched an account called auto.fun last month, and Shaw, a core member of Eliza Labs, announced on social media X that the project will go live this week. Previously, he mentioned considering creating a launchpad or community product tied to the $ai16z token. Will the emergence of auto.fun change the current downturn of the Eliza system tokens, and which upcoming projects on auto.fun are worth our attention?
What is auto.fun?
auto.fun is a community-driven open-source token launcher and No Code AI Agent creator, allowing anyone to create autonomous AI agents that can perform tasks across social media platforms, DeFi applications, and other web3 services.
In addition to launching tokens, creators can earn transaction fees here, while external communities can communicate, create content, or CTO tokens. Eliza Labs claims that auto.fun was developed to economically support the development of AI Agents, and it will differ from ordinary token launch platforms by bringing narrative changes.
The official statement claims that auto.fun adopts a more equitable token model than previous launch platforms, combining bonding curves and fair distribution principles. It allows project teams to lock up to 50% of tokens before listing to help reduce sniper behavior. It also introduces a "liquidity NFT mechanism" and shares part of the transaction fees with token creators. The official believes this token model promotes long-term coordination between AI agent developers and users, ensuring sustainable growth for projects and fair participation for retail investors.
Pre-launch Pumpfun Scam Coin Controversy
Before the project officially launched, auto.fun had already sparked controversy, more accurately, Shaw ignited community discussions. The cause was that several suspected counterfeit auto.fun tokens were issued on PumpFun in recent days, and Shaw used a public wallet address to purchase some of them, causing these tokens to rise in value, with some even briefly surpassing a market cap of $2.5 million, only to quickly drop to zero. Interestingly, after the community CTO, this token surged again, currently quoted at $1.5 million, which aligns with the community CTO function of auto.fun, filled with irony.
After being cursed by netizens and suspected of lacking funds to launch and cut retail investors, Shaw firmly denied being the Dev, explaining, "I bought a few random coins on Pumpfun, and it started to rise. I said I would donate it, but later someone told me it was a SCAM, so I burned the tokens. Sorry for the confusion. I just wanted to play around."
This is not the first time Shaw has faced community backlash. Previously, during the Eliza community coin incident, he even purchased multiple "fuck shaw" MemeCoins worth only a few thousand dollars using a public address. Theoretically, every blockchain player has the freedom to buy and sell, but as a project leader, having one's address under public scrutiny carries significant influence, and one should consider the rights of retail investors and the direct balance with "FUN."
What are the Alpha Opportunities?
Despite the previous turmoil causing market expectations for the project to plummet, over 15 projects from various fields have decided or expressed interest in joining auto.fun, including some excellent teams. I have selected a few of the more talked-about projects for introduction, not as investment advice.
Comput3 AI
Comput3 is a project providing GPU computing power for AI Apps and AI Agents, initiated by Dmitry Nedospasov. Currently, the Comput3 API can be used for video generation, open-source model inference, voice generation, private encoding, and portrait generation. The project team has opened a webpage for the API interface, claiming GPU usage costs only $0.5 per hour, but specific computing power has not been disclosed.
Additionally, the project team has developed a TG MINIAPP for conversational chatting and collaborated with Roolz AI to generate AI anime using Comput3's GPU in conjunction with LLM models. The project team claims they are currently testing an API/MCP interface that allows AI Agents to use it freely, with future products enabling large model training, large-scale video generation, and algorithm model calculations, collaborating with BTC mining farms to provide idle capacity, building GPU derivatives, and creating an on-chain GPU market.
DogLife.AI
DogLifeAI is initiated by Dr. Pepe, with the concept of bringing a complete dog onto the blockchain and granting it immortality. Previously, Dr. Pepe issued his own biological science popularization social AI Agent "DrPepe.ai Agent," whose token $Bryan once reached a market cap of $40 million but has now fallen to $2.8 million.
Notably, in December 2024, Dr. Pepe and Silicon Valley billionaire Bryan Johnson, who promotes longevity therapies, shared the hyperbaric oxygen therapy "HBOT," which was actually an article he shared the day before on the Arweave chain. This led the community to believe that Bryan is a "facade" of Dr. Pepe, which is why the related token ticker is $Bryan instead of DrPepe. Although DogLifeAI currently has no CA, Dr. Pepe allows users to "pre-purchase" DogLifeAI tokens using $Bryan.
Sigma Music
Sigma Music is a social music AI agent incubated by the AI data platform itheum. The platform not only allows users to upload music and create music stations but also provides a token launchpad for users to turn their music into Memecoins.
Kryptonite's CZAI
CZAI is an AI Agent that provides traders with an efficient and intelligent assistant, simplifying investment decisions and enhancing transparency in fund management. Community members claim that CZAI is produced by the DEFAI project Kryptonite, but the two have not yet connected on social media.
Currently, the project team has mentioned that this AI Agent will have multi-signature "multi-sig" operations and transparent fund management, providing users with personalized trading advice by monitoring market charts, analyzing economic data (such as Federal Reserve dynamics), and assessing community sentiment. It will also include on-chain information from multiple chains, allowing users to search for new tokens, track yield opportunities, and discover potential investment opportunities.
Astra
Astra is a multi-chain payment solution developed by Astra Company based on the Lightning Network, aimed at providing efficient and scalable payment infrastructure for AI Agents. Astra's core product is the Astra SDK, which allows developers to integrate native Lightning Network payment functionality into any application, blockchain, or AI agent.
The Eliza team seems confident in auto.fun, intending to bring a new concept to the market after a long project buildup. However, whether the market can still buy into this narrative after the pre-launch token events remains uncertain. Regardless, this brings a breath of fresh air to the long-dormant CryptoAI field.
