**[Virtuals Launches Unicorn Launch Model, Gradually Replacing the Genesis Points System]** BlockBeats News, October 7 – According to official sources, Virtuals has officially launched Unicorn as its next-generation launch model. The goal is to enable community members to truly co-own future AI agents while attracting high-quality founding teams to build the ecosystem over the long term. Compared to the previous Genesis model, Unicorn no longer solely pursues fairness but emphasizes early conviction and long-term value. Each Unicorn project starts with a low valuation, allowing early participants to gain asymmetric returns. Founding teams only receive funding when the project achieves actual growth, ensuring accountability and long-term development. The launch process includes a creation phase, an early trading phase, and a transparent team allocation mechanism. It also features anti-bot measures and ecosystem airdrop rewards for VIRTUAL token holders and active community members. The Unicorn model will gradually replace the Genesis points system, transitioning the reward mechanism from points to VIRTUAL staking and ecosystem activities. For each Unicorn Launch, 5% of the total supply will be allocated to genuine community members: 2% to VIRTUAL stakers and 3% to active participants in the Virtuals ecosystem. Airdrops will be distributed weekly, with snapshots recorded based on VIRTUAL staking status and Virtuals ecosystem activity.
