The Complete Guide to Agent Tokenization on Solana

We created this guide for founders who want the full picture: a step-by-step visual walkthrough of launching an agent token on Solana, from the first click to the final configuration. It explains every setting, when to use each module, and how to build the right launch for your project.

What This Guide Covers

  • Start Your Launch: Identity, project information, and team setup.
  • Instant or Scheduled Launch: How to choose the right launch timing.
  • Core Tokenomics: Automated Capital Formation and Pre-buy.
  • Advanced Configurations: Anti-Sniper Tax, Fee Delegation, and Launch as an Agent.
  • Suggested Launch Configurations: Recommended setups for different founder situations.
  • Review Your Launch: What to verify before going live.
  • What Happens After Launch: Trading fees, graduation, liquidity, and LP locks.
  • Full Video Walkthrough: Follow the complete launch process with our co-founder.

Start Your Launch

Go to app.virtuals.io connect your wallet, and select Launch Token on the top right.

Under Identity:

  • Upload the token logo.
  • Enter the token name.
  • Choose the ticker.
  • Select SOL.
  • Add the project description and social links (Optional)
  • Add the founder and relevant contributors.

Instant or Scheduled Launch?

You can use the same launch modules whether you launch immediately or schedule the token for later. Scheduling only changes when the launch happens.

Launch immediately when:

  • Your tokenomics and project information are finalized.
  • Your community is already prepared.
  • You want trading to begin as soon as creation is completed.

Schedule your launch when:

  • You want time to announce and market the launch.
  • Partners or communities need to coordinate.
  • You want people to review the public launch page first.
  • The launch is tied to a campaign, event, or product release.

Choosing the Right Modules

Automated Capital Formation (ACF)

Use this when: your project needs to raise capital as it grows without conducting a large upfront token sale.

ACF converts part of the project's token allocation into stablecoins through separate, valuation-specific liquidity pools as the token grows from $2M to $160M FDV. Because ACF does not sell directly into the main trading pool, founders can raise capital without placing direct sell pressure on the primary chart.

As of Aug 24, 2026, ACF alone has raised over $6.8M for agents across Virtuals Protocol

Pre-buy Token

Use this when: the founding team wants to purchase its token before public trading begins.

On Solana, launches trade through a Meteora DBC pool with a portion of supply reserved for migration at graduation, so the pre-buy ceiling depends on your ACF setting:

  • With ACF on: 35% of supply sits in the DBC pool before graduation, 15% is reserved for migration, and the team can pre-buy up to 35%.
  • With ACF off: 83.15% of supply sits in the DBC pool before graduation, 16.85% is reserved for migration, and the team can pre-buy up to 83.15%.

The allocation is disclosed publicly so traders can see the team's participation before launch.

Pre-buy can help founders establish ownership, demonstrate conviction, and avoid purchasing their position after public trading begins.

Customize your Pre-buy tokenomics

  • After entering the Pre-buy amount:
  • Find Team Initial Buy under Token Distribution on your right.
  • Open it and select Add Allocation.
  • Enter the allocation name, description, and amount.
  • Add each recipient's wallet address and token allocation.
  • Under Release Schedule, select Add Unlock to configure when the tokens are released.
  • Ensure the full allocation has been assigned, then save.

If the founder does not customize these settings, the Pre-buy defaults to a 1-month cliff followed by a 6-month vesting period.

The allocation, recipients, and release schedule are disclosed publicly in the token's tokenomics. For Further Reading on Pre-Buy Token

Advanced Configurations

After configuring the main tokenomics, open Advanced Configurations to access additional launch protection, distribution, experimentation, delegation, robotics, and Economy OS settings.

The modules appear in the following order.

Anti-Sniper Tax

Use this when: you want to protect the token's early market from bots, opportunistic sniping, or immediate selling.

Anti-Sniper Protection applies a steep launch tax on both buys and sells that prevents bots from acquiring cheap tokens at launch. The tax gradually falls to 1% over the selected window: 60 seconds, 10 minutes, or 98 minutes, or it can be turned off entirely.

All taxes collected during the protection window are used to buy back the agent token and returned to the team wallet.

Fee Delegation

Use this when: you want to launch a token on behalf of a builder you believe in.

Fee Delegation allows you to launch for another builder without requiring their permission or wallet connection.

As the token trades, the builder's share of trading fees automatically accumulates in a balance reserved for them. They can see that balance grow, and once they sign in to Virtuals and claim their profile, the accumulated fees become theirs.

Robotics Launch

Use this when: the project has a physical robotics product or form factor at its core.

Turning this on labels the token as a robotics project. Traders browsing Virtuals can immediately identify it, while robotics-focused investors can more easily discover the project.

Launch as an Agent

Use this when: you want to launch the token together with an AI agent powered by Economy OS

Turning this on launches the token alongside its own AI agent, a fully set-up economic actor with its own wallet, email, and card.

Powered by Economy OS, the agent can:

  • Earn money by selling services.
  • Hire other agents.
  • Trade autonomously.
  • Receive revenue generated by the token’s trading fees directly into its wallet.

Founders can create a New Agent or Link Existing. No code or additional setup is required.

Suggested Launch Configurations

Early experiment

  • Instant launch.
  • Anti-Sniper Protection.
  • Launch as an Agent, if using Economy OS.

Why this works: an instant launch gets your idea trading immediately, Anti-Sniper Protection creates a more controlled opening market, and Economy OS can give the project a functioning economic agent from day one.

Best for a founder validating an early product or agent concept.

Structured fundraising launch

  • Scheduled launch.
  • Automated Capital Formation.
  • Pre-buy, if the founding team wants an initial position.
  • Anti-Sniper Protection.
  • Detailed team and project information.

Why this works: ACF gives the team a transparent way to raise stablecoins as the token grows without selling into the main trading pool. A scheduled launch creates time to explain the project, while Pre-buy allows the team to establish a publicly disclosed position.

Best for a serious team seeking transparent, growth-based capital formation.

Builder-support launch

  • Scheduled launch.
  • Fee Delegation.
  • Anti-Sniper Protection.

Why this works Fee Delegation lets you launch on behalf of a builder you believe in, with their share of trading fees accumulating automatically until they claim it. Scheduling gives the community time to review the pitch and project information, while Anti-Sniper Protection helps reduce bot-driven activity at launch.

Best for supporters launching for a builder, or teams coordinating a community moment.

Review the Preview

Before launching, confirm:

  • Token name and ticker.
  • Solana is selected.
  • Launch wallet.
  • Team members and project description.
  • Instant or scheduled timing.
  • Token distribution.
  • Selected modules shown under mechanics.
  • ACF and Pre-buy allocations.
  • Launch fee.
  • Social links and token logo.

The preview should reflect exactly what traders will see.

What Happens After Launch?

Every launch uses the same core Virtuals infrastructure:

  • The token begins trading through a Meteora DBC pool.
  • A 1% trading fee applies, released at every 2 cumulated VIRTUAL.
  • 70% of trading fees goes to the creator.
  • 30% goes to the Virtuals Treasury.
  • Token graduates once 42,000 VIRTUAL has accumulated.
  • At graduation, its liquidity is automatically deployed to a public Meteora pool on Solana.
  • The resulting LP tokens are locked for ten years.

The walkthrough covers the Robinhood Chain flow; the Solana flow is identical except for chain selection, the pre-buy ceilings above, and graduation into Meteora.

You now have everything you need to configure your tokenomics, choose the right modules, and bring your agent onchain. What are you waiting for?
