- Clanker’s AI-driven token-deployment tool now lives inside Farcaster’s social protocol, lowering the barrier for token launches.
- 7% of CLANKER supply is locked and protocol fees will be redirected into buy-backs, aiming to strengthen token value and scarcity.
- Tokenbot $CLANKER’s market cap climbed roughly 50% within 24 hours, jumping over $45 million.
The decentralized social protocol Farcaster has announced a formal integration with the AI-token launch platform Clanker, marking a new chapter in on-chain community token issuance. With this, Clanker will operate directly within the Farcaster ecosystem, enabling social-first, AI-driven token creation on the Base network.
Under the agreement, users of Farcaster can summon the Clanker agent via a simple tag like @clanker in a Farcaster client like Warpcast or Supercast to specify a token’s name, ticker, and design-brief. Behind the scenes, Clanker automatically deploys the token on Base, sets up a liquidity pool, locks initial liquidity and establishes a revenue-sharing model.

Deflationary tokenomics at play
Additionally, the deal introduces a deflationary mechanism, wherein a reported 7% of the $CLANKER token supply will be locked and all protocol fees will now be directed towards token buy-backs, strengthening scarcity and token-holder alignment. Interestingly, from versions 0 to 3.1, Clanker saved part of the protocol fees as ecosystem tokens in a vault. Just before the tie up, the team destroyed those tokens, which lowered the total amount in circulation. Burning the ecosystem tokens made the most sense from both a legal and tax perspective, Clanker said in its blog post.
$CLANKER jumps 50% in value within 24 hours
The move signals a shift in how token launches and social media combine in Web3. Farcaster gains a built-in AI token engine, while Clanker accesses Farcaster’s decentralized social graph and engagement infrastructure. The integration may mark “a new era of AI-powered meme coins” and bring more accessibility to token issuance beyond expert developers.
Post the announcement, $CLANKER’s market reaction was immediate as trading volume surged, and its market cap reportedly topped $45 million, jumping over 50%. The tokenbot is currently trading at ~$46.24, reflecting a significant uptick of over 80% in the past 24 hours.
