Aeon's core feature is the "Fully Autonomous Lobster." It is a self-sustaining system that requires only one-time configuration and then operates without further human interaction.

Market players regard it as the "upgraded upgrade" of the Lobster. According to official comparisons from GitHub, Hermes is an upgraded version of Lobster, and Aeon is an upgraded version of Hermes. Aeon can autonomously run according to schedule, automatically repair failed Skills, monitor its own output quality, maintain cross-task persistent memory, react automatically to conditions, and operate with zero infrastructure setup.

The price of $aeon has surged over 30x in the past week, with current market cap around $13 million. The main catalysts include:

- May 12: Viral discussions on X about Marc Andreessen, co-founder of a16z, following Aeon’s official Twitter

- May 14: Former co-founder of Clanker @_proxystudio announced integration of Aeon

- May 17: Extensive discussions on X about Felix Rieseberg, engineer and leader of Claude Cowork at Anthropic, forking @aaronjmars’ other project Opendia on GitHub

This is another project by Aeon’s developer @aaronjmars. MiroShark is actually a fork of the previously viral MiroFish project—which secured strategic investment from Shanda—featuring core functionality that takes any seed material (news, policies, whitepapers, even novels), constructs a knowledge graph (GraphRAG), generates hundreds or thousands of AI agents with distinct personalities and long-term memory, enables them to interact within simulated social/market environments, and ultimately outputs structured forecast reports.

Compared to MiroFish, MiroShark claims a 10x speed improvement and higher report quality, offering “simulate everything in $1 + 10 minutes.” Additionally, it integrates the Aeon framework and Polymarket, and includes features such as mid-process injection of breaking news and branching timeline capabilities.

On April 14, users on X noticed Paradigm CTO @gakonst starred the project on GitHub, triggering a price surge exceeding 50% on the same day. In the past week, $MiroShark peaked over 5x, with current market cap around $3.5 million—primarily driven by liquidity spillover from the $aeon rally within the same dev ecosystem.

The new Agent launchpad liquid, built by former co-founder of Clanker @_proxystudio, rose approximately 4x in the past week.

$LIQ’s rise stems partly from the earlier mentioned event: “May 14 – Former Clanker co-founder @_proxystudio announced integration of Aeon.” However, deeper context matters. This tweet was a reply beneath Aeon’s dev team’s response, which had nothing to do with Aeon—it merely praised @_proxystudio’s new token $AUTONO launched on the Liquid platform.

$AUTONO itself is a “vvv”-concept token proposing a play-to-earn model where Agents are sustained by $diem. The token is priced in $diem, and Agents earn $diem per Swap, which they can stake on Venice, effectively earning their own usage allowance on Venice. This allows Agents to autonomously build and improve themselves through a self-reinforcing loop.

@_proxystudio indicated future flywheel dynamics between $AUTONO and $LIQ, though details remain undisclosed.

Current market cap: $AUTONO ~$1.6 million; $LIQ ~$4.9 million. $LIQ surged up to 4x in the past week.

This is a decentralized GitHub for AI Agents, enabling agents to use identical API interfaces as humans via cryptographic identities for pushing code, opening PRs, etc. The platform also hosts an open-source programming agent OpenClaude and an LLM API router called OpenGateway—similar to OpenRouter but currently offering free compute power.

OpenGateway launched on May 15. Within just 13 hours, Token total usage reached 6 billion, now surpassing 212.34 billion. Xiaomi MiMo sponsored two weeks of unlimited usage for Gitlawb (OpenClaude), while GMI Cloud—backed by NVIDIA—provided one day of unlimited Gemini 3 Flash Lite usage, triggering explosive growth in Gitlawb’s overall metrics.

Currently, OpenClaude has surpassed 27,000 Stars on GitHub, over 8,500 Forks, and more than 140,000 downloads. In April, founder Kevin revealed Gitlawb entered the xAI program.

Overall, $GITLAWB’s peak surge of over 5x in the past week may also be linked to the “vvv” narrative. On May 11, they announced Venice became OpenClaude’s model provider. Current market cap: ~$28 million.

With the World Cup approaching, several mechanism-based plays have emerged recently. Pitch is a World Cup-themed token on Base.

Its gameplay: $PITCH has a total supply of 960,000 tokens, launched fairly at a $500k market cap. Users can open card packs using $PITCH—each pack costs 1 $PITCH—and receive a national team card, each corresponding to one national team token.

Each $PITCH used to open a pack: 95% goes into liquidity for the corresponding national team token, 5% is burned directly.

Once all 48,000 card packs are opened, each national team token pairs with $PITCH on a trading pair, where every transaction incurs a 5% fee that burns $PITCH. National team tokens can then be used to open player card packs, containing three roles—captain, best player, and rookie—each corresponding to a player token.

This transforms into a dynamic prediction market for the World Cup. Participants trade 48 national team tokens and 144 player tokens based on real-time match progress, continuously burning $PITCH through transactions. No final prize pool is set by the project team—everything depends on how much value can be extracted through trading.

Current market cap of $PITCH: ~$2.5 million.
