- Virtuals launched Solana agent tokenization with fundraising, trading and autonomous wallets.
- Its ACF system has raised over $6.8M, with funding tied to token valuation milestones.
- Economy OS agents can hold wallets, earn revenue, hire agents and trade autonomously.
Virtuals Protocol launched a Solana-based agent tokenization flow that lets builders issue tokens for AI agents, raise capital as those tokens gain market value and connect agents to wallets that can trade autonomously. Solana announced the rollout on Aug. 24, describing it as a way to turn AI agents into ownable onchain businesses.

Anyone can turn an AI agent into an ownable business. Launch it, raise capital for it, fund its intelligence, and put it to work onchain.

Virtuals ties AI agent fundraising to token valuation
The fundraising mechanism uses Virtuals’ Automated Capital Formation, or ACF, system. ACF converts part of a project’s token allocation into stablecoins through valuation-specific pools as its fully diluted valuation rises from $2 million to $160 million.
Virtuals said in its Solana launch guide that ACF had raised more than $6.8 million for agents across the protocol as of Aug. 24. The figure is protocol-wide, so it shouldn’t be treated as money raised by Solana-based agents alone.
The structure gives builders access to more capital only as the token reaches higher valuation levels. That creates a limitation: fundraising depends on market demand for the token rather than revenue or adoption of the AI product itself.
Economy OS gives Solana AI agents their own wallets
Builders can activate Virtuals’ “Launch as an Agent” option to pair a token with an AI agent powered by Economy OS. Virtuals says the agent receives its own wallet, email and card, and can earn money by selling services, hire other agents, trade autonomously and receive trading-fee revenue.
Solana agent tokens begin trading through a Meteora Dynamic Bonding Curve pool. A launch graduates after 42,000 VIRTUAL accumulates, at which point liquidity moves into a public Meteora pool. The resulting liquidity-provider tokens are locked for 10 years.
The wallet function adds an operational layer beyond token issuance. An Economy OS agent can receive revenue and execute transactions from its own wallet, while ACF uses token valuation milestones to raise funds for the project. Token trading and autonomous agent activity are separate parts of the system, even though Virtuals combines them in one launch flow.
Virtuals builds on its existing Solana expansion
The Aug. 24 release isn’t Virtuals’ first move onto Solana. The protocol announced its Solana expansion in January 2025, including a Meteora liquidity pool and a Strategic SOL Reserve, and said the rollout would go live in February.
The new launch flow adds Automated Capital Formation (ACF) and Economy OS functions to that existing Solana footprint. Virtuals uses ownership language for agent tokens, but its public launch guide doesn’t describe them as corporate equity. For Solana launches, graduation requires 42,000 VIRTUAL, and the resulting liquidity-provider tokens are locked for 10 years.
