"...if AI is good at something, it will be infinitely replicated, so there’s no scarcity hence you can’t really expect a sustainable business by creating anything with AI"
This post accurately reflects the current situation. If you earn money through products created by AI, they are very easy to copy and are not sustainable.

toady's a good guy and this isn't about him. but clanker, where a community member fair launched $BNKR, now has jerry pan (@stambouli_o1) behind the scenes with a stake in the protocol. his track record speaks for itself: botted engagement, and 95% of the o1 airdrop routed to team wallets (receipts: https://t.co/eYOH3ngVLV).
i'm not comfortable with our token living there. over the coming weeks we'll lay out a plan to migrate $BNKR, and other bankr-launched coins on clanker will have the option to migrate too. in hindsight we should have done this months ago. now it's clear it has to happen.
so far in 2026 bankr has done more launchpad volume than every other launchpad on base combined. but launchpads are a brutal business. platforms change hands, and their incentives change with them. builders deserve a home that won't be sold out from under them.
our thesis hasn't changed: tokens are the best way for ambitious founders to raise capital and attention from the market, instantly. we'll keep onboarding and backing builders like we always have, and we'll keep shipping.
🚨BREAKING🚨

@CryptoWorldJosh They want to control it because they want to control the information. This goes hand-in-hand with the debate over data centers and the media push to demonize them. Trump reiterated it this morning, because with the "blue wave", there will be a lot more of this regulation talk.
If you want a simple multi-model inference API or participate in agent-to-agent commerce on Virtuals, there is still utility. But the agentic wallet or free/subsidized daily compute is gone.
The original broader pitch (full DeFAI agentic terminal with conversational swaps/portfolio management/token launches via Captain Dackie, plus perpetual compute via CAPU staking) has been substantially reduced, but the official announcements make the narrowed focus clear.
What's unique now?
A crypto-native, wallet-connected multi-provider LLM gateway with straightforward USDC top-ups and full OpenAI compatibility. This can be convenient for builders or agents that want one key/endpoint instead of managing multiple provider accounts and billings.
Users holding CAPU can still exit (unstake/burn path that returns principal at the original ratio for those who minted via the contract, or sell on the LP; the team added liquidity after the pause announcement). The agentic wallet infrastructure remains available until Nov 25.
