Clanker, a decentralized application (DApp) built around an artificial intelligence agent that creates memecoins based on prompts, has generated over $34.4 million in fees, according to blockchain data.
According to the “Clanker Fees” Dune data dashboard, the liquidity pool fees earned by Clanker have reached $34,417,863. The daily fees peaked on Nov. 26, 2024, at $1.1 million earned in a single day.
Clanker’s official website showed 355,179 live “clankers,” referring to tokens deployed through its AI agent. It also showed an ecosystem market cap of $172.3 million, and that $34.4 million of creator fees were earned through it.
“Clanker is an AI that launches crypto tokens for you,” the website explains. “Give it a name and symbol, and it handles deployment, market creation, and fee sharing automatically.”

Clanker’s token explanation page promises token creators that they will earn 1% fees on decentralized exchange liquidity pool trades. The site also promises that users do not need crypto knowledge and only need to “provide token details.”
Launching a token can take as little as tagging the @clanker bot on the farcaster X alternative or interacting with the Clanker website. Developers also have access to a dedicated software development kit.
A separate Dune data dashboard shows that the cumulative trading volume of tokens created with Clanker has reached nearly $3.48 billion. The volume peaked on Nov. 27, 2024, when it reached almost $61 million.
Clanker is currently at its fourth protocol version, deployed in mid-June. This latest version alone has been responsible for the deployment of 7,819 tokens.

Shamir Ozery, co-founder and CEO at Web3 AI agents project Ensemble, told Cointelegraph that “AI agents are starting to show up in Base’s on‑chain activity in a meaningful way.” He said that average Clanker daily fees climbed from about $65,000 in June to $89,000 in July, a 37% increase.
“This growth comes from agents becoming easier to use and more trusted,” Ozery said. He explained that such agents abstract away the complexity of decentralized finance (DeFi) and “help users make better decisions without needing to understand the technical details.”
Ozery said that most of the AI agent growth on Base involves trading and DeFi-focused agents such as Bankr. Bankr is an AI interface for the DeFi ecosystem, enabling users to instruct the agent to perform trades, bridge assets between chains and more on their behalf.

“It’s early, but it points to a shift where agents are becoming active economic participants onchain rather than just experimental demos,“ he added.
