After Farcaster's snake-swallowing-elephant acquisition of Clanker and x402 reignited the Virtuals – AI Agents trend The token trading volume of Base Memecoin Launchpad, represented by Clanker and Virtuals, has seen significant growth, hitting a high since February this year. However, it’s still far from the AI Agents craze at the end of last year. The Base version of the 'Universal + AI' combo with Clanker + Virtuals once rivaled Solana's Pump Fun + ai16z at the end of last year. Unfortunately, times have changed, and things are different now. Even ai16z has collapsed, rebuilt, and started issuing more tokens. Base’s strength remains intact, though. Could this wave of x402’s A2A + payment trend, blowing up from Base, bring a stronger second wave of opportunities for AI Agents?
