A tweet raised 35,000 SOL, what is the AI-Pool presold by ai16zdao members?
This article discusses the presale mode of the AI-Pool project, which uses AI agents to manage funds in a trusted execution environment, aiming to improve the transparency and security of presales. However, this wave of hype has caused a fear of missing out in the market, and the issuance mechanism after a large amount of funds joined the presale has caused dissatisfaction among users. (Previous situation: 2024 encryption narrative ranking: meme coins dominate, AI, RWA, Solana ecosystem rising) (Background: aiPool》The first AI autonomous presale Token "$METAV" opened with a market value of over 100 million U.S. dollars, will it become the next GOAT?) Trends are cyclical, and this also applies to encryption. After getting tired of the pvp of PumpFun, the market has returned to the old way at the beginning of the year — presale, but this time with the new twist of AI narrative. Early this morning, Twitter user Skely (@123skely) announced the opening of the presale for the AI launch coin project AI-Pool (@aipool_tee). Perhaps Skely's identity as a member of @ai16zdao gave him a certain endorsement. Less than two hours after the presale opened, over 10,000 $SOL were raised, and more than 35,000 $SOL were raised half a day later. The fund-raising play in the presale was hot at the beginning of the year, and there were also many projects that raised tens of thousands of $SOL at that time, but few of them achieved good results in the end. In theory, the market has already lost interest in this kind of play, so what's different about this presale? AI-managed presale type Pump.fun? In short, the AI-Pool project for this presale is a "money-making Fi" managed by AI agents. Skely said in the tweet that early fundraising models (such as slerf, bome, etc.), if they could successfully launch after raising a large amount of funds, everyone would naturally be happy. But fundamentally, this kind of money-making to individual Wallet model is too challenging for human nature. Even if the DEV did not have evil intentions at the beginning, the more money is raised, the harder it is to resist. GM.AI is a lesson from the past. The current pumpfun mode does indeed avoid some possibilities of centralized evil. But now it has been filled with bots in all aspects: fake reviews, opening sniping, trend tracking, etc... Even with fair issuance mechanisms, for retail investors, the opportunity to truly participate in fair trading is becoming less and less, not only pvp with people, but also pvp with bots online 24 hours a day. In short, these participation methods are definitely not fair to retail investors. Since pump cannot compete with bots, and human beings in the presale mode often violate their promises, why not let AI manage the presale process? How does AI-Pool work? This is an intelligent Tokenissuance system based on the Trusted Execution Environment (TEE). Its core is an AI agent running in TEE, which ensures that its execution environment cannot be hacked or tampered with through special security mechanisms. The system uses a carefully designed Private Key management scheme to ensure that the Private Key will never be touched by humans, thus fundamentally guaranteeing the security of the system. In daily operation, the system accepts two forms of fund injections: small donations (less than 1 SOL) and larger investments (1 SOL or more). These funds will flow into the intelligent Wallet managed by the AI agent. The AI agent will use these funds to launch new Token projects on the Meteora Liquidity pool and reward eligible investors through Airdrop. Throughout the process, each Wallet operation will generate a remote attestation certificate, which is not only used to verify the legitimacy of the operation, but also to ensure that the Wallet's derivation process and access rights are traceable and secure. Skely also emphasized that this series of developments was completed through ai16z's ELIZA framework. The core mechanisms of the project are as follows: 1. Fund reception: Users directly send a minimum of 1 SOL and a maximum of 10 SOL to the AI agent's WalletAddress (opRyDjuRetWnsP78FNFTPEnAJX7AkjuD6GTP7tsqHXd): Amounts below the minimum will be considered donations. 2. Security protection: Through @PhalaNetwork's TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) technology: Private Key is generated and stored in TEE. Developers cannot access the Private Key. All operations can be verified in the terminal log. 3. Liquidity management: AI will establish a Liquidity pool through Metoria (not PumpFun): Money Laundering will flow directly back to the AI Wallet. Qualified participants will receive Token distributions. At the same time, Skely also mentioned in the tweet that this presale is not entirely without risk: The current project is still in the V1 version, and 10% of the supply will be sent to a hosted Wallet (publicly visible). These funds will be used for possible exchange listings in the future, or other integrations (Cross-Chain Interaction LP pool, etc.), or destruction. Technically, developers can push code changes, but this requires an execution period of about 24 hours. Once the Token is online and locked, it cannot be changed. And in the V2 and future versions, the team hopes to let the AI agent in the project operate completely autonomously, possibly in the form of a DAO, so that everyone can benefit from the fees flowing to the AI agent's Wallet, while introducing some whitelist technology, and attempting to target or manipulate the system People are blacklisted. Market fear of missing out on money, but criticism of the issuance mechanism details The speed of raising money in the market does indicate the success of this presale. The presale Address received over 35,000 $SOL within half a day, worth nearly 7 million U.S. dollars. Although the presale online this time was set at 10 $SOL per Address, someone still sent over 500 $SOL to the presale Address in one go. Presale Address: opRyDjuRetWnsP78FNFTPEnAJX7AkjuD6GTP7tsqHXd Skely himself did not expect this presale to cause such a fear of missing out, and stopped the presale when the account was close to 30,000 $SOL, and stated that any additional money would only be used as LP (but the specific hard cap and how the oversubscribed $SOL will be allocated are still unclear). However, the money that should have been raised has been raised, but there are some serious problems with this presale that have caused dissatisfaction among users: 1. It's all about raising money, but Skely did not set a hard cap for this presale at the beginning, which led to more and more $SOL in the presale Address, and early users' shares may be diluted, and people's anxiety and dissatisfaction gradually increased. Some Twitter users even bluntly said: Isn't this just a trap with an AI shell for raising money? It's only real if the money can be withdrawn. 2. The distribution mechanism is not clear. Skely mentioned in the tweet that the Token will be distributed to "worthy people", but this standard itself is too subjective, and Skely seems not to have further explained this statement. 3. Some people have also pointed out that the project's Twitter @aipool_tee has changed its name many times, and the previous name (cable) is not very nice... However, Skely himself later tweeted to admit the project...
