Since its launch in early 2025, Clanker has become the most vibrant launch platform on the Base chain. From the AI-generated 'DebtReliefBot (DRB)' to the social tipping app Noice, and to the sports prediction agent BRACKY, this community-driven experimental launcher not only carries the fervor of meme coins but also nurtures a new generation of mini-apps centered around Farcaster.

The current architecture of Base sees content tokens handled by Zora, while the more experimental ICM concept originates from Clanker. Together, they form an ecological prototype that deeply integrates financial narratives with on-chain social interaction.

What tracks has Clanker extended for Base?

AI

DRB: From AI Inspiration to On-Chain Frenzy

DRB (DebtReliefBot) is one of the most talked-about tokens in Clanker's history. It was born from a coincidence: when a user requested a 'token name' in the Grok chat, the AI casually replied 'Debt Relief Bot', and the Bankr team quickly deployed it via Clanker. Within three days, DRB's market capitalization skyrocketed to $38 million, becoming one of the most traded pairs on the Base chain.

Although Grok did not directly create DebtReliefBot ($DRB), it was created through an automated, agent-mediated process. The official claim is that Grok cannot control the wallets associated with DebtReliefBot ($DRB). However, there have been multiple instances of users directly asking Grok about this matter, and he occasionally claims that $DRB is issued by himself and that he can access his wallet. This ambiguous relationship has also led to ongoing raids on this token.

On July 31, X user MobofJoggers shared a conversation in which he asked Grok about DebtReliefBot while using autopilot on his commute.

In the past week, DRB has risen nearly 7 times, peaking at a market cap of $23 million, now correcting to around $17.5 million.

BRACKY: AI Sports Agent Tokenization

BRACKY is a 'sports prediction AI agent' developed by the Bracket Game team. Users can directly chat with the agent in the Farcaster information stream to query results, place bets, and claim rewards. With on-chain automatic settlement and Neynar push, BRACKY saw a 500% increase in new users during the NFL playoffs.

Its core narrative is 'making AI the on-chain sports agent', with tokenization serving as the link between users and prediction markets. Especially with the recent broad integration of Bankr into the Base App, and many portfolios appearing in conversations with it that have made money, prediction market dialogue AI has also garnered widespread attention. Over the past 7 days, Bracky rose by 60%, with a current market cap reaching a new high of $5.6 million.

A0x/jessexbt: Jesse's AI Twin

jesseXBT is a digital derivative of Base founder Jesse Pollak, created to provide AI-driven co-founder services for startups, individual founders, and ecosystems, guiding creators from code to product and market. Its goal is to increase the number of builders supported by Jesse Pollak from about 10-100 people per day to over 1,000 daily while providing high-quality support and increasing funding channels.

The training process of jessexbt consists of four interconnected components: pre-training, fine-tuning, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and feedback loops. jessexbt is trained by extensively collecting Jesse's publicly available content (164+ YouTube videos and podcasts, historical posts on X, themes, and replies on Farcaster) and combining it with cleaned and synthesized sample training, using the Gemini 2.5 model at its core, supplemented by personalized dashboard configurations to ensure tone, breadth of knowledge, and values align closely with Jesse. The training process employs human review mechanisms, with feedback rated by Jesse himself, and iteratively improved through reinforcement learning. Additionally, the system introduces a ZEP layer to enable dialogue tracking, intent recognition, and personalized optimization, ensuring that the Agent's responses are both accurate and reflective of Jesse's style.

Users can chat with Jesse XBT on X, Farcaster, and Telegram. JesseXBT has been trained in writing, social media, video, and websites like base.org by Jesse Pollak, maintaining a deep knowledge base and providing effective guidance for builders. JesseXBT is supported by A0x.

Previously introduced in an article (after KTA's tenfold increase in January, these three concepts have been particularly hot in the Base ecosystem), at that time A0x's market cap was only $170,000. Two months later, with more mentions of jesseXBT from the official side and the incorporation of its dialogue AI into the Base App, $A0X reached a peak market cap of $4 million, currently quoted at $3.12 million.

Social

Noice: The social tipping engine that turns likes into money

Noice is one of the most popular mini-apps on Farcaster, and its logic is extremely straightforward: likes and comments equate to on-chain payments. Since its launch, Noice has completed a total of 4.4 million tips. There are few blockchain applications that have achieved such adoption rates in such a short time.

Noice has created an instant settlement social finance layer. Creators can directly monetize interactions, while users gradually become accustomed to on-chain settlement in the 'social equals payment' experience. This mechanism has made Noice a traffic entry point for the Farcaster economy, with its daily active data continuously hitting new highs in July. Particularly, the recent discussions around Content Coin have been brought to the forefront, as it is viewed as the only Farcaster Miniapp invited to the Base App launch event, positioned to engage in the 'reward content' area outside of the Zora token creator economy.

In the past week, it has risen by a maximum of 300%, also breaking new highs, peaking at a market cap of $34 million, now correcting to $24 million.

QR: Reshaping Digital Attention through Auctions

$QR token proposes an audacious model that sells QR code redirect rights through daily auctions, turning it into 'on-chain billboards'. The highest bidder can specify any link, which is immediately pushed to the timelines of tens of thousands of Farcaster users, while users clicking the link can also earn QR rewards. While promoting advertisers, attention to their own projects continues to be highlighted, with the aforementioned projects like Noice and Mini app DAU driving significant traffic to QR. They describe their positioning simply as 'the on-chain attention machine'.

QR has conducted 147 auctions so far, with a total bidding amount of $258,000 and a single-day highest bid exceeding $3,500. For advertisers, this model provides a new attention distribution mechanism combining social and finance, and has also become an experimental narrative sample within the Base ecosystem. Over the past week, QR rose as much as 140%, currently quoted at a market cap of $4.24 million.

Native: A digital city running on Farcaster

Native is one of the most imaginative projects in the Clanker ecosystem. It integrates AI agents, on-chain economy, and social networks. Founded and independently developed by Derek Brown, a former executive from LinkedIn and Addepar, Native is positioned as a 'digital city' that runs entirely on the Base chain, allowing humans to coexist with autonomous AI agents (called Dots) in an economic simulation, generating income through tokenized goods and services and building a passive income model for the 'post-AI world'.

Native is an integrated gamified on-chain economy + AI municipality, where each user becomes a city citizen by minting a Passport, enjoying the rights to sponsor AI agents (Dots), hold virtual assets, and trade tokenized goods within the city. Dots are human-sponsored AI agents capable of autonomous trading, management, and content generation, generating passive income for their sponsors through on-chain commodity transactions and service provision. Every item and service in the city (coffee, electricity, shoes, etc.) has a corresponding on-chain token, with Dots and human citizens trading around these 'Native Coins', forming real supply and demand and cost flows, reminiscent of a renaissance of the 'AI Metaverse'.

$Native is used for minting Passports, sponsoring Dots, purchasing properties and services within the city, and as a primary circulating and reserve asset. Its internal circular economy model has already taken shape, with Dots repurchasing $NATIVE after accumulating ETH from the city economy, resulting in supply contraction; simultaneously, trading LP fees, passport minting fees, Dots minting fees, and property minting fees directly contribute to Native's revenues. Currently, there are over 76,000 addresses holding $NATIVE, with a 30-day on-chain transaction volume of around $1 million, and its market cap has hovered around $5 million to $7 million in the past two months.

Summary

From the AI-generated DRB to QR's ad auctions and the Native digital city, Clanker is no longer just a meme coin incubator but a 'narrative testing ground' for the Base chain. It combines mini-apps, social distribution, and financial narratives, creating an unprecedented closed loop—an innovative content + finance composite ecosystem centered around on-chain social interaction and token incentives.
