Virtuals is Expanding to @solana! We are beyond excited to announce Virtuals' expansion to Solana, marking a significant step in our journey to empower builders and drive innovation across multiple ecosystems. Solana, known for its speed, scalability, and vibrant community, is the perfect place for us to grow and bring our vision to life. Here’s what this means for the Virtuals Nation: 🔹Meteora Pool Launch: We’re introducing our very own Meteora Pool on Solana, opening up new opportunities for trading and engagement. 🔹Strategic SOL Reserve (SSR): 1% of trading fees will be converted to SOL, creating a dedicated reserve to support and reward agents and creators within our ecosystem. 🔹Base Pair Consistency: The AGENT/VIRTUAL trading pair you know and love will remain consistent on Solana, ensuring a seamless user experience. But we’re not stopping there. We’re doubling down on our commitment to empower builders and creators in the Base and Solana ecosystem with the launch of our Venture Partner Model: 🔷Grants of 42K $VIRTUAL tokens for projects based on Base and Solana. This initiative is designed to help early-stage builders get on their feet and scale their ideas. To further inspire innovation, we’re hosting the Virtuals AI Hackathon this March, with technical support and mentorship provided by the @SolanaFndn. This event will bring together some of the brightest minds in the space to build, collaborate, and create groundbreaking solutions. Virtuals joining the Solana ecosystem is not just an expansion—it’s the beginning of a new chapter. We’re here to create value, empower builders, and grow the Virtuals Nation to new heights. A special shoutout to the incredible teams at @JupiterExchange and @LayerZero_Core, who worked tirelessly with us day and night to make this expansion a reality. Your dedication and collaboration were instrumental in bringing Virtuals to Solana, and we couldn’t have done it without you. The future is multichain, and we’re leading the charge. Let’s build the future together.
