"The Little Fox" launched two tokens, sparking a meme battle between Base and Solana
MetaMask co-founder Dan launched a token in 10 minutes, with a profit exceeding 200,000.
Author: Nan Zhi, Odaily Planet Daily
At 11:08 AM today, Dan Finlay, co-founder of MetaMask, deployed the Meme token CONSENT on the Base network through the AI agent clanker. The token surged to a market value of $4.5 million within 5 minutes, and then fluctuated in the range of $2 million to $3 million.
Clanker is an AI+social platform-based Meme issuance tool, with an interactive experience similar to the previous makenow.meme. Users only need to @clanker, describe the token's Ticker, content, and image in text, and clanker will automatically deploy the token. The core difference is that the deployment process is completed by AI.
Dan: Oh no, I have no chips
However, 13 minutes after the token was deployed, Dan retweeted clanker's deployment reply and stated: "Honestly, this was a terrible experience: having my token snatched by 200 bots is clearly a scam. Maybe the issuer could deposit initial funds first? The Uniswap widget didn't even offer MM as a mobile login option." (Note: MM = MetaMask.)
A similar situation had occurred on makenow.meme, where if the token deployer chose to release the token via social media platforms, the deployer had no right to purchase first, and no one knew which token was real before the official Bot replied.
This seemingly "fair" launch method has actually become a feast for "scientists." Going back to the earlier friend.tech, various influencers were monitored by bots, and once launched, the early chips were snatched away by bots, leaving no space for ordinary users to participate.
"Pump.fun save me"
Dan further expressed that he actually lost money by deploying the token through clanker because many people bought in before the founder and then sold after the founder, and now he could only make up for the loss by "shilling."
Four minutes later, Dan thought of a brilliant idea------to issue a token on pump.fun. However, on the surface, Dan stated that this was a test to compare the experiences of the two token issuance platforms.
After Dan published the pump link to confirm the token's legitimacy, CONSENT on Solana began to soar, reaching a market value of $11 million just 11 minutes after the external launch, at which point Dan's account had an unrealized profit of about $200,000.
In response, Dan gave a positive evaluation of pump:
"I am comparing the Meme coin experiences of WC (Warpcast) and SOL. There are two tokens named CONSENT, and ultimately only one will prevail. So far, the result is: on Clanker, it gets snatched away and rug-pulled by a lot of people; while on pump.fun, at least the developers are the actual founding members. For example, it is impossible to use Clanker's model for crowdfunding an organization. Even though the amount I invested on pump.fun is just a small part of what I put into Clanker, the returns are already several times the losses I incurred on Clanker. I’m not sure how much of this is 'the normal site noise' and how much is due to the boost from this activity, but for me, that’s the fact."
Clanker responds a bit
In response to Dan's claim of losing money on clanker, clanker posted on the X platform: "@danfinlay tried clanker and pump.fun. He gave us some great suggestions, and we will use them to improve our product. Dan's experience wasn't good, but he made over $26,000 just on ETH."
However, Dan seems to have missed this post on the X platform, but he received tips from other Warpcast users------"Where can I see these clanker rewards (funds)."

Goldman Sachs’ 2027 Global Equity Strategy points out that the AI capital expenditure boom is nearing its peak, and global profit growth will slow significantly. S&P 500 earnings growth is expected to drop from 36% to 11%, with depreciation pressures gradually emerging. However, cloud giants’ valuations have adjusted to a forward P/E of 19.7, lower than the staples sector, and are classified as “relatively defensive” assets.

With $135 billion worth of Nvidia stock, will Jensen Huang cash out?
After Jensen Huang stepped down, his Nvidia holdings of approximately 812 million shares, valued at $135 billion, became a major pressure on the stock price. Any reduction in holdings is subject to both legal and market constraints: shares can only be sold compliantly after the disclosure of any undisclosed negative information, and the volume is equivalent to six trading days’ total market transactions, meaning large-scale cashouts would have to be spread over several months.

After a simultaneous technical and position-based recovery in the US stock market, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and JPMorgan have successively signaled a year-end rebound.

However, global manufacturing import price inflation has annualized at around 24%, surpassing the pandemic peak, and the inflation bill will come due intensively in the first quarter of next year. Goldman Sachs warns that once the year-end rally materializes, it may exhaust future upside potential.
