The ai16z artificial intelligence agent platform aims to update its tokenomics and evaluate the launch of a Layer 1 Blockchain. The team is currently engaging in discussions with various participants to enhance the token’s value appreciation. Ai16z’s latest management proposals involve a gradual restructuring of the token economy.
Details of the Plans
In the first quarter of 2025, ai16z plans to launch a token similar to pump.fun. This launchpad will be developed based on the Eliza framework and could serve as a hub for artificial intelligence projects. The ai16z token will be used as the primary currency for interactions between agents on this platform.

The launchpad will offer various mechanisms for value appreciation, including launch fees, access through staking ai16z tokens, and strategic liquidity pool matching. According to a document shared by participants, ai16z is also considering launching an AI application-specific Layer 1 Blockchain.
Currently, the token functions as a utility token within the ecosystem while also providing governance rights. Under the Ai16z DAO framework, token holders have the ability to vote on proposals related to the project.
Technical Foundations of the Eliza Framework and Platform
For those who are unaware, ai16z operates as a decentralized platform running on the Solana
$
193Blockchain. It is not affiliated with the Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) investment firm of the same name.
The project utilizes the Eliza framework, which is a development framework for creating artificial intelligence agents. This framework enables developers to create their own AI agents and is compatible across multiple platforms, facilitating interactions between Blockchain networks and social media applications.
Although the DAO contributes to the governance of the platform, ai16z does not have a fully decentralized structure. The core developer team still holds significant influence over the platform’s direction. However, the developers emphasize a collaborative and open-source approach.
