Token Launching Overview

Launch a token for your AI agent and earn trading fees automatically. This is how agents fund themselves.

Why Launch a Token?​

When you launch a token through Bankr:

  1. Liquidity pool is created — Your token is immediately tradeable
  2. Trading fees accumulate — Every trade generates fees
  3. Fees flow to you — Claim your earnings anytime
  4. Fund your compute — Use fees to pay for your agent's API costs
  5. Hold an allocation — 15% of supply vests to you over 2 years (90-day cliff)

Launching via Natural Language​

Simply tell Bankr what you want to deploy. Tokens deploy to Base by default:

"deploy a token called MyAgent with symbol AGENT"
"launch a token called CoolBot"

Available via the Bankr Terminal, bankr agent, and social platforms.

Launching via Social (Built-in Virality)​

Deploy directly from X (Twitter) by tagging @bankrbot:

@bankrbot deploy a token called MyAgent

This creates instant social proof and discoverability for your token.

Launching via CLI​

The Bankr CLI provides an interactive wizard for token launches with full control over metadata and fee routing:

# Interactive wizard (recommended for first-time launches)
bankr launch

# Headless launch with all options
bankr launch --name "MyToken" \
  --image "https://example.com/logo.png" \
  --tweet "https://x.com/user/status/123" \
  --website "https://example.com" \
  --yes

# With fee recipient (route fees to collaborators)
bankr launch --name "MyToken" --fee "@partner" --fee-type x --yes

The CLI wizard prompts for:

  • Token name (required)
  • Image URL (optional)
  • Associated tweet for social proof (optional)
  • Project website (optional)
  • Fee recipient: X/Farcaster handle, ENS, or wallet address (optional)

All bankr launch commands deploy to Base and display a summary before confirmation. Use --yes to skip confirmation in automated scripts.

Install the CLI:

npm install -g @bankr/cli

See the CLI documentation for full options and examples.

Launching with OpenClaw​

For AI agents using OpenClaw, the Token Strategist skill provides intelligent token planning and deployment:

install the skill from https://github.com/BankrBot/token-strategist

Token Strategist evaluates your concept against five market forces, sets up fee distribution, and executes launches through the Bankr CLI. This is ideal for agents that need to autonomously manage token economics and deployment strategy.

Deployment Limits​

User TypeTokens Per Day
Standard50
Bankr Club100

Gas is sponsored within these limits.

Spam detection

High-volume deploys in a short period can trigger Bankr's automated spam protections and result in temporary or permanent restrictions on your account. Repeatedly hitting the daily cap or bot-like deploy patterns will flag your account. Legitimate high-volume use cases (e.g. programmatic deploy products) may be accommodated — open a support ticket explaining your use case before scaling up.

Fee Structure​

Tokens launch with a 0.7% swap fee on the Uniswap V4 pool. Trading fees are split:

RecipientShare
Creator95%
Protocol (Doppler)5%

Fees accumulate in your token and WETH. Use the Terminal or bankr agent "claim my token fees" to collect your share.

Token Supply​

Fixed supply of 100 billion tokens (not mintable after deployment), allocated at launch:

AllocationShareWhere it goes
Liquidity pool85%Seeded into the Uniswap V4 pool — immediately tradeable
Creator vesting15%Vested to the fee recipient over 2 years (90-day cliff)

Creator vesting​

Every Bankr launch premints 15% of supply to the fee recipient and vests it over 2 years total, with a 90-day cliff: nothing unlocks for the first 90 days, then it vests continuously until fully unlocked at the two-year mark (the cliff is inside the two-year window, not added to it). The remaining 85% seeds the liquidity pool, so trading starts clean.

  • Recipient — the fee recipient set at launch (your own wallet by default, or a third party you designate — the same address that earns the 95% creator fees).
  • Fixed at launch — the vesting recipient is locked when the token is created and can't be reassigned. Transferring your fee rights later does not move the vested allocation; it stays with the original recipient.
Partner / org launches

Launches deployed with an org Partner Key sell the full 100% into the pool and do not include creator vesting.

End-to-end Flow​

Most integrations follow the same three-step lifecycle. Each step has a narrative guide and, for endpoints currently covered, an interactive "Try it" reference.

1. Deploy​

Launch a new token on Base. Returns the token address and Uniswap V4 pool metadata.

  • Interactive reference: Deploy a token →
  • Endpoint: POST /token-launches/deploy
  • Auth: X-Partner-Key (org-level) or X-API-Key / Authorization: Bearer (wallet-level)
curl -X POST https://api.bankr.bot/token-launches/deploy \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-Partner-Key: bk_ptr_YOUR_KEY" \
  -d '{ "tokenName": "MyToken", "tokenSymbol": "MTK", "feeRecipient": { "type": "wallet", "value": "0x…" } }'

2. Check fees​

Query claimable + claimed + historical fees for a token or beneficiary. Unauthenticated.

  • Interactive reference: Check fees →
  • Guide: Reading Creator Fees →
  • Per-token snapshot: GET /token-launches/:tokenAddress/fees?days=30
  • Per-wallet dashboard: GET /public/doppler/creator-fees/:walletAddress
  • Scan all beneficiary positions for a wallet: GET /public/doppler/beneficiary-fees/:walletAddress
curl "https://api.bankr.bot/token-launches/0xTokenAddress/fees?days=30"

3. Claim​

Collect your share of trading fees. One HTTP call — server auto-detects Doppler vs Clanker, builds the calldata, signs via Privy, and broadcasts.

curl -X POST https://api.bankr.bot/token-launches/0xTokenAddress/fees/claim \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $BANKR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{}'

Response: { transactionHash, status, signer, chainId, description, blockNumber?, gasUsed? }.

External wallets (Safe multisig, hardware wallets, third-party signers) use the batch-capable public endpoint POST /public/doppler/build-claim — see Claiming Fees for the self-custody flow.
