Guanciale by VirtualsPrice

(GUAN)

Guanciale (GUAN) is an innovative hybrid project built on the Base network that combines meme culture with functional AI technology. The project features "Guan," an AI agent depicted as a piece of Italian cured pork that escaped a chef's pan. In the crypto community, "getting cooked" is slang for losing money on bad trades; therefore, Guan’s mission is to help users avoid this fate. As a discovery-focused agent, Guan uses AI to scout the market and provide insights, helping users navigate the ecosystem more safely.

GUAN is part of the Virtuals Protocol ecosystem, which specializes in the tokenization of AI agents. The project is closely associated with the founders of Cured Protocol and has significant ties to prominent industry figures like Kieran Warwick. This background provides the project with a foundation in both AI development and decentralized finance, ensuring the agent is equipped with the necessary framework to provide automated, data-driven intelligence to its community.

Guan acts as a "discovery-focused agent" designed to evaluate new protocols. Its primary utility involves scouting emerging projects on platforms like Curedfi.io to evaluate their tokenomics and audit their teams. By providing "actionable intelligence," Guan helps users determine if a project has solid fundamentals or is high-risk. This automated scouting process aims to deliver a high level of transparency and security for users looking to explore new opportunities in the decentralized space.

GUAN was launched via an Initial Agent Offering (IAO) on the Virtuals Protocol. The agent's operations and autonomous behaviors are governed by the protocol’s G.A.M.E. framework. This integration ensures that the AI functions within a structured decentralized environment. Furthermore, the project benefits from safety features inherent to the protocol, such as long-term locked liquidity, which is designed to foster trust and stability for participants within the ecosystem.

The project’s roadmap is focused on expanding Guan's utility through three distinct phases. Phase 1 involves the launch of the "Protocol Scorecard," a systematic rating tool for new tokens. Phase 2 introduces "Guan Alerts," which provide real-time notifications concerning project health and updates. Phase 3 aims to integrate the AI agent into the entertainment sector, featuring a video series and esports commentary for games like Illuvium Arena, bridging the gap between AI utility and community engagement.

GUAN can be traded on LBank and various decentralized exchanges (DEXs) within the Base network. The project features a total and maximum supply of 1,000,000,000 (1 billion) tokens. For security and verification, users should utilize the official contract address on the Base network. To ensure safety, the project relies on transparent on-chain data and locked liquidity mechanisms provided by its underlying protocol, helping to establish its legitimacy as a functional AI agent rather than just a meme token.
