After much anticipation, last weekend, the ELIZA ecological Launchpad platform auto.fun was officially launched. In addition, ai16z founder Shaw also continued to promote auto.fun on the X platform. So, with the recovery of the market this morning, can the price of ai16z extend its life with the help of auto.fun, and even rise strongly, ushering in the "second spring"?
Below, Odaily Planet Daily will take you to learn about the Launchpad platform auto.fun, the platform 's initial token price performance and community sentiment.
Project Introduction: The native token is ai16z
auto.fun is an open source, codeless Launchpad platform for a community-based, open source, and codeless Launchpad platform where anyone can create autonomous AI agents that perform tasks across social media platforms, DeFi applications and other Web3 services.
Eliza Labs said that auto.fun was developed to support the development of AI Agent on an economic level, and auto.fun will be different from the ordinary token launch platform, adopting a token model that is fairer than the previous launch platform, combining the binding curve and fair issuance principle, which will bring about narrative changes. In addition, creators can independently receive the fees incurred by content creation and token issuance, while the community can collaborate on content or create CTO tokens based on other platforms. The platform emphasizes "anti-hype" and "pure fun", aiming to create a decentralized, transparent and truly belong to creators and communities.
It is worth mentioning that Shaw, the founder of ai16z, previously posted on the X platform that auto.fun 's native token is ai16z.
The website has been down several times and the functions are not new
For the major AI Agent communities, ai16z's own Launchpad platform auto.fun, since it was launched last weekend, not only did it not see the popularity of product experience, speed-tun tokens and ai16z token staking functions in social media, but the website has experienced multiple downtimes, and even another downtime this morning.
No obvious innovation in the issuing coin function
The coin issuance function provided by auto.fun roughly follows the mature model of platforms such as Pump.fun in terms of logic and gameplay. None of the creation process, token release method or overall user experience show obvious differentiation. Overall, it is more like a "translational reproduction" of existing models, rather than a real breakthrough in product mechanisms.
Although the platform has launched an additional "chat room" function, which divides different exclusive chat areas according to the number of tokens held by users (such as 1k , 10k , 100k , 1M ), trying to create a sense of community belonging, but there is currently no Golden Dog project with high consensus and stickiness, resulting in this "micro-innovation" lacking practical significance. In addition, the Swap function that comes with auto.fun also failed to trigger discussions or use crazes in the community due to the lack of transparent incentive mechanism descriptions (such as whether there is a transaction reward or rebate mechanism), and there is a problem of "tool islandization".
The layout is chaotic and there is no "Golden Dog"
" No one of the many projects issued by the platform can do it." Due to the confusion of the official website’s display of tokens, users who entered the platform for the first time could not find any project that is more popular at the moment, nor could they find the platform Dragon 1 and Dragon 2 projects worth participating in.
In addition, according to the analysis of auto.fun data of community members (analysis website: https://autofun-iota.vercel.app/ ), the platform has issued a total of 576 projects. The current market value of the token with the highest market value is only US$28,000, and most other projects are even less than US$10,000, which is cold.
auto.fun data analysis
ai16z's short-term rise may be due to the market rebound only, and the
fundamentals have not seen substantial benefits.
With BTC rebounding strongly today, market sentiment has rebounded significantly, and the AI Agent sector, as a popular topic in recent times, has also strengthened. Among them, ai16z performed particularly well. The price rose to $0.19 this morning, and is currently temporarily reported at $0.18, with an increase of more than 30% in 24 hours . This trend is more like a strong rebound in counterfeit sectors caused by market recovery, rather than a positive change in ai16z fundamentals.

Judging from the current performance of tokens issued by the auto.fun platform, the overall market response is flat and failed to inject substantial incremental value into the ai16z ecosystem. Instead, due to the high homogeneity of content and gameplay, some community users have aroused doubts and negative feedback. Therefore, whether the price of ai16z token can truly usher in the "second spring" depends on whether auto.fun will launch functions with practical effects in the future, such as the staking mechanism of ai16z token, or the more imaginative ecological upgrades such as Eliza v2 brought by Shaw.
