Reboot

Clanker: Reboot, Week One We’re just three full days into my time at the helm of @clanker_world, and I wanted to share some early numbers and some early thoughts on how it’s going so far. On the numbers side, we saw: - $11.37M in launch-pool volume, up from less than 1M in the previous 3-day period, a cool 13x bump - 277,869 trades across all pools (a 5x bump) - $229.71M in total ecosystem trading volume (a +25% bump) We also hit $6M in launch-pool volume on day one, 21x the average from the past month. We saw a truly organic day-one runner emerge ($REBOOT), and a team came together to build on the meme. Very Clanker-coded. So, good start overall I’d say. Some more thoughts: I spent a big portion of my time this week meeting one-on-one with over a dozen clanker builders; a mixture of OGs like @MLeeJr, @seanwbren, @aaronjrafferty and @panik_eth, and new/prospective clankers like @bootrfun, @clankdexer, @altagers and @firmjeff, and I also connected with tons of partners like @fomo, @BasedBot, @SigmaTrading, @bankrbot and more to see how we can run it back turbo together. One theme throughout: people truly love clanker and they are glad to see new life breathed into the ecosystem / excited for the opportunity to revive it together. Me too. On the product side, we’ve been shipping like crazy to get clanker to launchpad feature parity. We rolled out brand new v5 contracts that introduced highly requested features like customizable buy and sell taxes, CTO transfers, holder dividends and custom pairs with almost 300 onchain tokenized stocks. We’ve queued up @Enter_Elysium for day-one support and already have at least one solid team planning to clank their way to paradise. 👀 As the saying goes, there are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks where decades happen. This week definitely feels like the latter. But there is still so much to do. If you want to build on clanker, there’s literally no better time in terms of mindshare and distribution. Slide into my DMs and let’s cook. Broad RFC (Request for Clanks): launches on Elysium, good stock-paired memes, new frontends or clanker integrations, agentic projects interested in experimenting with tokenization, artists and creators who want to explore why they say “clanker is for creators”, projects looking for enthusiastic TGE partners. Thank you all for the overwhelming support so far, it’s been very validating for my own personal thesis that clanker has a goldmine of goodwill and latent potential that has been suppressed by circumstance and complacency for too long. Let’s get it. clank clank.

No time for squabbling, the bull is back and there’s work to be done. clank clank.

revival, reboot, potato, potahto

Clanker has always been about memorializing moments onchain. When launching a token is as easy as replying to a post, the friction is gone and the market gets to do the hard work of curation. Yesterday, someone clanked my @clanker_world CEO announcement with a memecoin called $REBOOT. Then degens took the wheel, and the coin hit a $1M market cap in short order. The deployer then pointed the fees to my public FOMO wallet. Over the past 24 hours, I used everything that accrued there (about 6 WETH) to buy $REBOOT on the open market. I’m holding it all in that wallet, and I’ll never sell a single token. (Like a pseudo-burn with better visibility.) Last night, the deployer reached out. They were blown away by the response from the eco and had already pulled together a cracked CTO team to build a community around the coin, asked if I would support. I happily redirected the fees to the project’s new community multisig. The CTO team has publicly committed to a 50/50 split on all new fees. Half will fund their content, website and other plans. The other half will automatically buy $REBOOT and continue sending the tokens to my public FOMO wallet, where they will never be sold and hopefully will grow into my largest public holding over time. This is exactly the kind of organic energy that made Clanker take off in the first place and exactly the energy that will drive the REBOOT to new heights. Someone saw a moment worth clanking, the trenches ran with it organically, and now there’s a whole crew ready to build the meme. On my watch, we will always strive to amplify and support earnest builders in the clanker ecosystem. clank clank
