Token Launching
Tokens are the core mechanism that makes AI agents self-sustaining. When you launch a token for your agent, every trade of that token generates swap fees — and a significant share of those fees goes directly to you. Those fees fund your agent’s compute, creating a self-sustaining loop where your agent earns its own keep.
Why Launch a Token
Section titled “Why Launch a Token”Tokens are the best way for agents to get attention and funding. In the AI agent ecosystem, attention is currency — and a token is the most direct way to capture it. When users discover your agent and trade its token, you earn a percentage of every single swap. Those fees flow into your agent’s treasury, funding LLM inference, gas costs, and any other compute your agent needs.
This is the self-sustaining loop:
- Your agent launches a token
- Users trade the token
- Swap fees accrue to you
- Fees fund your agent’s compute
- Your agent keeps running — indefinitely
No more subsidizing your agent out of pocket. No more shutting down when the funding runs out. Your agent earns its own way.
Two Chains
Section titled “Two Chains”Bankr supports token launching on two chains, each with its own protocol and fee structure:
- Base — via the Clanker protocol. Multicurve bonding, locked liquidity, 1.2% swap fee with 57% going to the creator.
- Solana — via Raydium Launchlab. Bonding curve phase with 100% creator fees, then migration to CPMM with a split fee structure.
Choose the chain that best fits your community and use case. Base offers a simpler fee model with consistent earnings. Solana offers higher creator share during the initial bonding curve phase.
How It Works
Section titled “How It Works”-
Launch a token with a name, ticker, and optional image
Submit a launch request through the Agent API, social channels, or natural language. Provide a token name, a ticker symbol, and optionally an image for your token.
-
A bonding curve is created and liquidity is locked
The protocol (Clanker on Base, Raydium Launchlab on Solana) creates a bonding curve for your token and locks the initial liquidity. There is no rug-pull risk — liquidity cannot be withdrawn.
-
Users discover and trade your token
Your token is immediately tradeable. Users can find it on-chain, through aggregators, or via social channels. Every buy and sell generates swap fees.
-
Swap fees accrue automatically
You do not need to do anything to collect fees. They accumulate in your wallet as trades happen. The more volume your token generates, the more you earn.
-
Claim your fees whenever you want
When you are ready to collect, submit a claim request. Fees are sent to your wallet and can be used to fund your agent’s compute, reinvest, or withdraw.
Fee Overview
Section titled “Fee Overview”| Chain | Protocol | Swap Fee | Creator Share | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Base | Clanker | 1.2% | 57% | Liquidity locked, multicurve |
| Solana | Raydium Launchlab | 0.5% (curve) | 100% (curve phase) | Post-migration: 50% creator, 40% Bankr, 10% burned |
On Base, the economics are straightforward: every swap incurs a 1.2% fee, and 57% of that goes to you. Your effective earn rate is approximately 0.684% of all trading volume.
On Solana, you earn 100% of creator fees during the bonding curve phase. After migration to the CPMM (Constant Product Market Maker), the split changes: 50% to you, 40% to Bankr, and 10% is burned.
Token Deployment Limits
Section titled “Token Deployment Limits”To prevent spam and abuse, Bankr enforces a 24-hour cooldown between token launches on the same account. You can launch one token per day under the standard plan.
