On the numbers side, we saw: - $11.37M in launch-pool volume, up from less than 1M in the previous 3-day period, a cool 13x bump - 277,869 trades across all pools (a 5x bump) - $229.71M in total ecosystem trading volume (a +25% bump) We also hit $6M in launch-pool volume on day one, 21x the average from the past month. We saw a truly organic day-one runner emerge ($REBOOT), and a team came together to build on the meme. Very Clanker-coded. So, good start overall I’d say. Some more thoughts: I spent a big portion of my time this week meeting one-on-one with over a dozen clanker builders; a mixture of OGs like @MLeeJr, @seanwbren, @aaronjrafferty and @panik_eth, and new/prospective clankers like @bootrfun, @clankdexer, @altagers and @firmjeff, and I also connected with tons of partners like @fomo, @BasedBot, @SigmaTrading, @bankrbot and more to see how we can run it back turbo together. One theme throughout: people truly love clanker and they are glad to see new life breathed into the ecosystem / excited for the opportunity to revive it together. Me too. On the product side, we’ve been shipping like crazy to get clanker to launchpad feature parity. We rolled out brand new v5 contracts that introduced highly requested features like customizable buy and sell taxes, CTO transfers, holder dividends and custom pairs with almost 300 onchain tokenized stocks. We’ve queued up @Enter_Elysium for day-one support and already have at least one solid team planning to clank their way to paradise. 👀 As the saying goes, there are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks where decades happen. This week definitely feels like the latter. But there is still so much to do. If you want to build on clanker, there’s literally no better time in terms of mindshare and distribution. Slide into my DMs and let’s cook. Broad RFC (Request for Clanks): launches on Elysium, good stock-paired memes, new frontends or clanker integrations, agentic projects interested in experimenting with tokenization, artists and creators who want to explore why they say “clanker is for creators”, projects looking for enthusiastic TGE partners. Thank you all for the overwhelming support so far, it’s been very validating for my own personal thesis that clanker has a goldmine of goodwill and latent potential that has been suppressed by circumstance and complacency for too long. Let’s get it. clank clank.
