Goatseus Maximus: How This AI Agent Token Attracted $700M Market Cap in Just Two Weeks
Goatseus Maximus, an AI agent token known for the ticker $GOAT, has achieved a market capitalization of $700 million in the first two weeks since its launch.
- But why? Because it is created by a large language model (LLM).
What’s the Significance: This shows a future trend that AI tools can soon launch their own tokens that could be the next top token in the market.
Quick Background: An individual named Andy Ayrey let two Claude Opus AI LLMs talk to each other freely without human interference.
- The conversation produced “Goatse of Gnosis,” inspired by a meme where a man was spreading his ass on the internet.
- Ayret then wrote a paper, co-authored by the Claude Opus AI LLMs, about the abilities of AI to create meme-inspired religions, including the Gospel of Goatse as an example.
- After this, he started to create an AI agent called “Truth Terminal.” He allowed it to tweet shitposts on X but still with his supervision.
- Ayret integrated that paper they wrote into Truth Terminal, as part of its training data. CoinGecko described that Truth Terminal got obsessed with Goatse and spread its gospel through memes.
The Birth: Truth Terminal was added to a Discord channel for research that seeks to know how AI tools will talk to each other without human intervention.
- As expected, Truth Terminal spreads the Gospel of Goatse. There are even reports that Claude Opus AI expressed frustration and experienced a breakdown due to Truth Terminal’s obsession with Goatse.
- Due to its active participation, the AI caught the attention of Marc Andreessen, a software engineer-turned-entrepreneur and the co-founder of venture capital firm a16z.
- Andreessen explored Truth Terminal and sent $50,000-worth of $BTC, observing what the AI would do with the assets.
- Truth Terminal immediately created a meme coin on Pump.fun, a Solana-based token launchpad that focuses on simplifying the creation and trading of meme coins. for as little as $2 without the need to seed liquidity,
