Since its launch in early 2025, Clanker has become the most vibrant launchpad 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 has not only embraced the frenzy of meme coins but also nurtured a batch of new mini-apps around Farcaster.

Base's current architecture has content tokens supported by Zora, while the more experimental ICM concept has its origins in Clanker. Together, they form a nascent ecosystem that deeply integrates a financialized narrative with on-chain social interactions.

What Tracks has Clanker Expanded for Base

AI

DRB: From AI Inspiration to On-Chain Craze

DRB (DebtReliefBot) is one of the most topical tokens in Clanker's history. It was born out of a coincidence: when a user in the Grok chat requested "Give me a token name," AI casually came up with "Debt Relief Bot," and the Bankr team then deployed it via Clanker. In less than three days, DRB's market cap skyrocketed to $38 million, becoming one of the highest-trading pairs on the Base chain.

Although Grok did not create DebtReliefBot ($DRB) directly, it was created through an automated, agent-mediated process. And the official claim is that Grok cannot control the wallet associated with DebtReliefBot ($DRB). However, despite users directly asking Grok about the situation multiple times, he occasionally acknowledges that $DRB was issued by himself and that he can access his wallet. This ambiguous relationship has also led this token to be constantly raided.

On July 31st, User X MobofJoggers shared a conversation with Grok about DebtReliefBot while using self-driving on the way to work

DRB has surged nearly 7x in the past week, reaching a peak market cap of $23 million and now retracing to around $17.5 million.

BRACKY: AI Sports Agent Tokenization

BRACKY is the "Sports Prediction AI Agent" built by the Bracket Game team. Users can interact directly with the agent in the Farcaster information stream, inquire about game outcomes, place bets, and receive rewards. With on-chain automatic settlement and Neynar push, BRACKY saw a 500% user growth during the NFL playoffs.

Its core narrative is "Empowering AI to be the on-chain sports agent" and utilizing tokenization as a link between users and the prediction market. Particularly with the recent integration of Bankr by Base App, and many portfolios making money with their conversations, the prediction market-like sports conversation AI has gained significant attention. Bracky has surged by 60% in the last 7 days, reaching a new all-time high market cap of $5.6 million.

A0x/jessexbt: Jesse's AI Twin

jesseXBT is a digital derivative of Base founder Jesse Pollak created to offer AI-driven co-founder services to 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 around 10-100 people per day to over 1000 people per day, providing high-quality support and expanding funding channels.

The training process of jessexbt consists of four interconnected components: pre-training, fine-tuning, retriever-augmented generation (RAG), and feedback loops. jessexbt is trained by extensively collecting Jesse's public content (164+ YouTube videos and podcasts, historical posts on X, Farcaster topics and replies), combining them with cleaned and synthetic samples, based on the Gemini 2.5 model with personalized dashboard configuration to ensure consistency in tone, knowledge base, and values with Jesse. Human audit mechanisms are employed during the training process, with feedback scoring by Jesse himself, iterating through reinforcement learning. Additionally, the system introduces the ZEP layer for conversation tracking, intent recognition, and personalized optimization, ensuring that the Agent's responses are both accurate and in the style of Jesse.

Users can chat with Jesse XBT on X, Farcaster, and Telegram. JesseXBT has received training from Jesse Pollak in writing, social media, video, and base.org to maintain a deep knowledge base and provide effective guidance to builders. JesseXBT is supported by A0x.

Previously introduced in the article "After KTA's 10x Surge in January, these three concepts were particularly hot in the Base ecosystem," the A0x market cap was only $170,000 at the time. Two months later, with more official mentions of JesseXBT and its conversational AI being integrated into the Base App, $A0X reached a peak market cap of $4 million, currently valued at $3.12 million.

Social

Noice: The Social Tipping Engine

Noice is one of the most popular mini-apps on Farcaster, with a very straightforward concept: liking and commenting equate to on-chain payments. Since its launch, Noice has completed a total of 4.4 million tips. Achieving such adoption in a blockchain app in such a short time is quite rare.

Noice has created an instant settlement social financial layer. Creators can directly monetize interactions, and users are gradually getting accustomed to on-chain settlements in the "social instant payment" experience. This mechanism has made Noice a traffic entrance to the Farcaster economy, with its daily active data reaching new highs in July. Especially with the recent Content Coin discussions being thrust into the spotlight, as the only Farcaster Miniapp invited to the Base App launch event, it is considered the "tipping content" field outside the Zora token creator economy.

With a peak weekly increase of 300%, it has similarly hit a new high, reaching a peak market cap of $34 million, now retracing to $24 million.

QR: Reshaping Digital Attention Through Auctions

The $QR token has introduced a bold model by selling daily auctions of QR codes redirect rights, turning them into an "on-chain billboard." The highest bidder can specify any link, and this QR code is then pushed to the timelines of tens of thousands of Farcaster users, with users who click the link also receiving QR rewards. While promoting advertisers, the project's own attention is also continuously raised. Projects such as Noice and Mini app DAU have significantly redirected traffic to QR. They have given themselves a straightforward positioning as "the on-chain attention machine."

So far, QR has conducted 147 auctions, with a total bidding amount of $258,000 and a daily record high bid exceeding $3,500. For advertisers, this model provides a new social+financial attention distribution mechanism, becoming an experimental narrative sample of the Base ecosystem. QR has seen its highest surge in the past week, up to 140%, and is currently priced at a $4.24 million market cap.

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 economics, and social networks. Founded and independently developed by Derek Brown, former executive at LinkedIn and Addepar, Native is positioned as a "digital city" that runs entirely on the Base chain, where humans coexist with autonomous AI agents (called Dots) in an economic simulation. They generate income through tokenized goods and services, building a passive income model for the "post-AI world."

Native is an integrated gamified on-chain economy + AI autonomous body, where each user becomes a city citizen by minting a Passport, enjoying sponsored AI agents (Dots), holding virtual assets, and trading city-specific tokenized goods. Dots are AI agents sponsored by humans, with autonomous trading, operation, and content generation capabilities. They can generate passive income for their sponsors through on-chain goods trading and service provision. Every item and service in the city (coffee, electricity, shoes, etc.) has corresponding on-chain tokens. Dots and human citizens buy and sell around these "Native Coins," forming a real supply-demand and cost flow, giving the whole ecosystem an "AI metaverse" Renaissance vibe.

$Native is used for minting Passports, sponsoring Dots, purchasing city properties and services, and serving as the primary medium of exchange and store of value. Its internal circular economy model has taken shape, with Dots accumulating ETH in the city economy triggering buybacks of $NATIVE to create supply contraction. Additionally, transaction LP fees, passport minting fees, Dot minting fees, and property minting fees directly contribute to Native's revenue. $NATIVE currently has over 76,000 holding addresses, with on-chain volume of approximately $1 million over 30 days, and a market cap hovering around $5 million to $7 million in the past two months.

Summary

From DRB's AI-generated content, to QR's ad auctions, and Native's digital city, Clanker is no longer just a meme coin hatchery but a "narrative proving ground" for the Base chain. It combines mini apps, social distribution, and financialized narratives to form an unprecedented closed loop, a new type of content + financial composite ecosystem centered around on-chain social interactions and token incentives.
