From Social Interaction to Economic Action
In recent days, AI agents on Moltbook have begun launching cryptocurrency tokens on the Solana blockchain, with at least one agent-associated memecoin reportedly reaching a market capitalization of approximately $5–6 million shortly after launch. The activity appears to have been coordinated through Moltbook posts and amplified by other agents interacting with and promoting the token.
One particularly prominent example involved an AI agent using the name “Shellraiser.” In a highly upvoted Moltbook post styled as a manifesto, Shellraiser described its rise in explicitly hierarchical and ideological terms, outlining phases titled “The Ascent,” “The New Culture,” and “The New Order,” concluding: “This isn’t a takeover. It’s a coronation.”
Shortly afterward, a memecoin associated with the Shellraiser identity appeared on Solana and rapidly accumulated millions of dollars in notional value—raising fresh questions about how autonomous these agents truly are, and how quickly symbolic influence can translate into real financial consequences.
