Launchpad

Launchpads are decentralized platforms that facilitate early-stage fundraising for new Web3 projects through Initial DEX Offerings (IDOs). They provide investors with curated access to token sales while offering startups a community-driven capital injection. In 2026, launchpads have evolved into full-stack incubators, focusing on project quality and long-term sustainability. Follow this tag for the latest in token distribution models, tier-based participation, and the emergence of the next generation of "unicorn" protocols across various blockchain ecosystems.

Can Pump.fun’s $62 Million Buyback Save PUMP From Collapse?

Can Pump.fun’s $62 Million Buyback Save PUMP From Collapse?

The post Can Pump.fun’s $62 Million Buyback Save PUMP From Collapse? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Altcoins Pump.fun, the Solana-based memecoin launchpad, has poured more than $62 million into repurchasing its native token, PUMP, in an effort to ease selling pressure and boost investor confidence. Data from Dune Analytics shows that the platform has acquired more than 16 billion PUMP tokens at an average of $0.0038 each, funded by fees generated from memecoin launches. The daily pace of repurchases has remained steady, ranging between $1.3 million and $2.3 million over the last week. Despite a sharp revenue dip in late July — its lowest since early 2024 — Pump.fun has still generated more than $775 million in total fees, according to DefiLlama. The buybacks appear to be stabilizing sentiment, with PUMP climbing 12% in the past month and recovering over 50% from its August low. Rising Participation Among Holders Onchain figures reveal that PUMP’s holder base has grown to more than 70,000 wallets. Smaller investors now make up nearly half of the distribution, a sign that retail users are increasingly participating rather than the token being concentrated in a few large wallets. Competition With LetsBonk Pump.fun briefly lost its dominance to a rival Solana platform called LetsBonk in July, but recent data suggests it has reclaimed leadership. Over the past week, Pump.fun accounted for 73% of launchpad volume compared to LetsBonk’s 9%, processing $4.5 billion in trades. Ongoing Legal Trouble At the same time, Pump.fun faces a growing legal storm. A $5.5 billion class-action lawsuit accuses the platform of operating like a “rigged slot machine,” relying on hype-driven marketing to funnel latecomers into losses. The case, amended in July, describes the platform as an “unlicensed casino,” raising questions about its regulatory future. What Comes Next for PUMP? While the buybacks have supported short-term price stability, the lawsuit could weigh on long-term growth if regulators intensify scrutiny.…

BullZilla Ups the Ante Ahead of Presale as Pudgy Penguins and Official Trump Surge

BullZilla Ups the Ante Ahead of Presale as Pudgy Penguins and Official Trump Surge

The post BullZilla Ups the Ante Ahead of Presale as Pudgy Penguins and Official Trump Surge appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News BullZilla’s presale roars with 100x meme coin potential as Pudgy Penguins and Official Trump tokens rise. What if the next 100x meme coin was hours away from shaking the crypto market? This question is becoming increasingly complex to ignore as meme coin volatility intensifies, drawing traders into a whirlwind of uncertainty and opportunity. Sudden spikes and equally sharp declines have turned the market into a pressure cooker where timing often separates winners from bag-holders. Over the past 24 hours, one trending token has dipped while another has gained momentum, reminding investors of how quickly fortunes can swing. This constant churn keeps analysts searching for signals of the next big breakout. For students of finance, blockchain developers, and meme coin enthusiasts, it is both a lesson in risk and a glimpse into the psychology of digital assets. BullZilla ($BZIL) presale emerges against this backdrop, presenting itself as more than another hype-driven project. Built on the mechanics of scarcity and conviction, it sets up a launch that could rival early chapters of meme coin history. With Pudgy Penguins expanding its cultural reach and Official Trump dominating the media cycle, the stage is set for a compelling three-way comparison. BullZilla ($BZIL): The Presale That Refuses to Sit Still BullZilla has designed a presale that forces investors to act rather than wait. Stage 1 begins at $0.00000575, with automatic price increases triggered every $100,000 raised or every 48 hours. That structure makes hesitation costly, as each delay means entering at a higher price. Early activity already confirms demand: $10,000 was secured within the first 50 minutes, and two billion tokens were sold within 2 hours of launch. But BullZilla is not only about timing. It offers layered staking yields of up to 70% annually and a referral system that rewards community growth.…

Chiney Ogwumike And BAL4Her Launch First Queens Of The Continent Camp In Lagos

Chiney Ogwumike And BAL4Her Launch First Queens Of The Continent Camp In Lagos

The post Chiney Ogwumike And BAL4Her Launch First Queens Of The Continent Camp In Lagos appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Chiney Ogwumike At The BAL4Her Leadership Workshop In Morocco Supplied/BAL When Chiney Ogwumike returned to Lagos, Nigeria, this week, it wasn’t just another trip home; it was the start of something bigger. The two-time WNBA All-Star, ESPN analyst, and first female Ambassador of Basketball Africa League (BAL) chose Nigeria to host the very first Queens of the Continent (QOTC) camp on African soil. From August 29 to 31, Ogwumike and her QOTC Foundation are partnering with BAL4Her to deliver three days of programming that combine the excitement of basketball with the long-term impact of mentorship, networking, and leadership development. “This is home, this is what I know,” Ogwumike told Forbes.com. “It’s the intersection of my identity, and it’s all about the next generation.” A First for Queens of the Continent Chiney Ogwumike During The BAL’s HER TIME TO PLAY Camp In Morocco Supplied/BAL Launched just over a year ago, QOTC was born from Ogwumike’s desire to place young women and girls at the centre of the sports movement. The Lagos camp marks the foundation’s first activation on the continent, making it a landmark moment for women’s basketball and youth empowerment in Nigeria. The weekend began on August 29 with an exclusive networking event that brought together leaders and advocates across industries. On August 30, a BAL4Her U23 camp featured 20 of Nigeria’s top young talents, while the program will conclude with a clinic for 60 under-16 girls. For Ogwumike, the camp was never meant to be only about basketball drills.“It was even probably more important than the basketball,” she explained. “Only a small percentage of athletes ever go pro. But there are so many ways to be part of sports, whether it’s coaching, owning a team, being a broadcaster, or even running events. We want these young women to see…

A $400 Bet in This Crypto Under $0.003 Will Mirror the Explosive Returns of 2017 XRP and 2021 Dogecoin

A $400 Bet in This Crypto Under $0.003 Will Mirror the Explosive Returns of 2017 XRP and 2021 Dogecoin

The post A $400 Bet in This Crypto Under $0.003 Will Mirror the Explosive Returns of 2017 XRP and 2021 Dogecoin appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The crypto market has seen several historic moments where a few-dollar initial bets flipped to huge portfolios. XRP holders became millionaires on the 2017 bull run. Dogecoin brought back the memory, awarding early investors huge gains in 2021. Today, investors are searching for the next coin to repeat that kind of breakout. With its presale success, innovative roadmap, and a launch price under $0.003, Little Pepe (LILPEPE) is emerging as a frontrunner for those willing to stake $400 on the chance of catching lightning in a bottle again. Lessons From XRP 2017 and Dogecoin 2021 The stories of XRP and Dogecoin highlight two very different paths to success. XRP surged in 2017 as global banks and institutions began to test Ripple’s payment solutions. Despite pessimism, early investors watched the token rise from under a cent to over $3 in a few months, making it one of the cycle’s fastest-growing assets. Dogecoin’s 2021 run was different. A parody coin became a cultural revolution thanks to viral memes, Elon Musk’s tweets, and a devoted community. Casual holders became instant millionaires when the token rose from fractions of a cent to nearly $0.70. Both cases show skeptics underestimate, overlook, and disregard huge winners. Those who spotted the opportunity early captured life-changing gains. It is this playbook that investors are eyeing now with Little Pepe, a project blending meme appeal with genuine infrastructure. Little Pepe’s (LILPEPE) Presale Momentum Follows Similar Trend If there is one project dominating presale headlines in 2025, it’s Little Pepe. The token has already raised over $22 million across multiple sold-out stages. Despite being over 100% up from the initial price, its entry price is still at just $0.0021. Considering its official launch price of $0.003, early buyers are positioning themselves for a guaranteed uplift even before exchange listings. Community-driven…

Undervalued Below $0.004, This Coin Will Hit $2 at Its Peak This Cycle According to a Solana Millionaire

Early Solana believers made life-changing gains by spotting potential before the mainstream caught on. Now, one of those very millionaires has put forward a bold claim: a little-known meme-native project called Little Pepe (LILPEPE) has the potential to soar as high as $2 this cycle.

Eliza Labs Files Lawsuit Against Musk’s xAI Alleging Monopolistic Behavior

Eliza Labs Files Lawsuit Against Musk’s xAI Alleging Monopolistic Behavior

The post Eliza Labs Files Lawsuit Against Musk’s xAI Alleging Monopolistic Behavior appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Agentic AI project Eliza Labs has filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk’s xAI, claiming that the AI company engaged in monopolistic practices meant to “deplatform” agentic AI launchpads. The lawsuit claims that xAI attempted to “extract” valuable information, including technical documentation and usage figures related to the development of Eliza Labs’ platform, to copy its ideas before “banishing” Eliza Labs from xAI. Eliza Labs co-founder Shaw Walters argues in the lawsuit that the relationship between the two companies started off amicably, with xAI inviting Walters to share ideas. He also said that they built on xAI’s application programming interface (API) because it was free. Walters added: “The collaborative tone turned transactional, just as X was launching Ani and a new version of Grok. Suddenly, they were demanding we pay $50,000 a month for an enterprise license — $600,000 a year — or face legal action.  We were already paying them over $20,000 annually through various licenses and fees,” Walters continued. Cointelegraph reached out to Walters, but he declined to provide any further comment. The Eliza Labs lawsuit against xAI.

Related: Eliza Labs launches auto.fun, a no-code AI spin on Pump.Fun Lawsuits mount in the nascent AI sector The AI industry is still in its infancy, with key regulatory and legal questions left unanswered about the nascent technology. These regulatory grey zones exist alongside the legal issues traditionally faced by tech companies, such as trademark and patent infringement, making the AI sector a battleground ripe for litigation. In February 2024, Elon Musk filed a lawsuit against Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI, and OpenAI itself, over the…

AI Agent Market Map: Hype is over, technology continues

AI Agent Market Map: Hype is over, technology continues

By Tiger Research Compiled by AididiaoJP, Foresight News summary While the AI agent market saw a sharp decline in popularity following the token price crash, technological development continues at a steady pace. The DeFAI sector is regaining attention with real product releases and specialized on-chain functionality. Specialized agents optimized for specific functions have replaced the previous general-purpose agents. Projects such as Virtuals are actively building the infrastructure to connect these agents and enable them to collaborate. AI agents will be integrated into crypto projects as core functionality. Infrastructure that enables smooth communication and collaboration between agents will become crucial. The hype ends, the technology continues The cryptocurrency industry has incorporated AI technology in various ways, with AI agents receiving the most attention. The total market capitalization of agent-related tokens reached approximately $16 billion at one point. This demonstrated strong market interest, but the interest was short-lived. Most projects failed to meet development expectations, and token prices plummeted by over 90% from their peak. Falling prices don't necessarily signal technological regression. AI agents remain a crucial area of technology in the crypto space. Discussions about practical use cases are becoming more concrete, and teams continue to test new approaches. This report explores how AI agents are playing a role in crypto and explores potential future developments. Reshaping the AI Agent Ecosystem After the Hype Early AI agent projects gradually faded from the market The AI agent sector in the crypto space began to gain traction in late 2024. ElizaOS by the ai16z team and the GAME development stack by the Virtuals Protocol team significantly lowered the barrier to entry for agent development. Launchpads like DAOS.fun and Virtuals Fun provided platforms for tokenizing developed agents. This streamlined process from development to release fueled a surge in market interest, leading to the rapid emergence of numerous agent projects. Most projects have ambitious roadmaps leveraging AI technology. Investors, anticipating innovative services, have driven up token prices. In reality, these projects are merely wrappers of OpenAI or Anthropic's base models, tweaked or cue-engineered. Most are building advanced chatbots for X or Telegram rather than developing standalone services. While these projects emphasize innovative visions and technological differentiation, their actual operations are virtually indistinguishable from meme coins. Source: aixbt However, some projects are exceptions. Projects like aixbt and Soleng have partially implemented their roadmaps and launched actual services. They use token gating to provide exclusive access to token holders. Aixbt provides project analysis reports, while Soleng analyzes Github repositories to support investor decision-making. Even these relatively successful projects couldn't overcome structural limitations. Unstable revenue structures reliant solely on token price increases hindered progress. Technological competitiveness lagged behind that of Web2 companies. Token prices eventually plummeted, operating funds dried up, and most projects have now suspended operations. The DeFAI project has rekindled hope in the field AI agent technology, once facing over-hyped expectations, is now entering a correction phase. The DeFi (DeFi) sector is regaining attention by proving its real-world value. DeFi agents execute automated investment strategies 24/7. They enable users to easily access complex DeFi services through simple natural language commands. This sector was a core narrative in the early days of the AI agent space. Most projects remained in the roadmap phase, struggling to achieve actual implementation. The sector temporarily lost attention. Recent product launches are rebuilding market expectations. Representative projects include Wayfinder and HeyAnon. Wayfinder uses specialized AI agents called "Shells" to perform on-chain tasks. Shells execute transactions directly on-chain through a built-in dedicated wallet. The system utilizes a specialized multi-agent architecture, encompassing trading agents, perpetual agents, and contract agents. Each agent type specializes in a specific role, enabling automation of various investment strategies. Users can easily execute simple cross-chain trades or advanced strategies such as basis trading and leveraged fixed-investing. From individual agents to agent networks Early AI agent projects promoted "general-purpose agents" that could perform all functions. This approach prioritized funding over technological completeness. Projects proposed excessive roadmaps to capture a broader market, and most exposed limitations during implementation. The current agent ecosystem is moving in a completely different direction. Builders, recognizing the limitations of general-purpose agents, are now developing specialized agents. These agents can collaborate with one another, similar to how skilled craftsmen with diverse expertise—carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and so on—collaborate to build a house. Virtuals Protocol's ACP represents this trend. It provides a standard framework for communication and task allocation between different agents. Theoriq and General Impression are also building infrastructure to enhance interoperability between agents. The market is reshaping itself, shifting towards maximizing the value of the entire agent ecosystem, rather than the value of individual agents. Future scenarios for the AI agent market Even after the early hype cooled, AI agents continued to evolve. While the speculation ended, projects continued to build new features and services using AI agents. Two developments stood out. First, AI agents are becoming essential infrastructure. They are no longer a standalone field, but are being integrated into crypto projects as a fundamental feature. Nansen, a blockchain data platform, has developed research agents to make complex on-chain data easier to explore. DeFi projects are also adding agents to improve user access. AI agents will become the final interface connecting users to the blockchain, not an optional feature. Second, agent commerce will grow. As AI agents become standard, interactions between agents and humans will become more frequent. Secure transaction protocols and trust mechanisms will become increasingly important. Projects like Virtuals Protocol's ACP are laying the foundation for this. These changes will simplify the complexities of the crypto space, improve user experience, and create new economic opportunities.
