Virtuals launches Unicorn Launch model, gradually replacing the Genesis points system

BlockBeats News, October 7, according to official sources, Virtuals has officially launched Unicorn as its new generation Launch model, aiming to enable community members to truly co-own future AI agents while attracting high-quality founding teams for long-term ecosystem development. Compared to the previous Genesis model, Unicorn no longer solely pursues fairness, but emphasizes early conviction and long-term value.

Each Unicorn project starts at a low valuation, allowing early participants to obtain asymmetric returns; the founding team only receives funding when the project actually grows, ensuring responsibility and long-term development. The Launch process includes a creation phase, an early trading phase, and a transparent team allocation mechanism, with anti-bot measures and ecosystem airdrop rewards for VIRTUAL holders and active community members. The Unicorn model will gradually replace the Genesis points system, with the reward mechanism shifting from points to VIRTUAL staking and ecosystem activities.

Each Unicorn Launch will allocate 5% of the total supply to genuine community members: 2% to VIRTUAL stakers; 3% to active participants in the Virtuals ecosystem. Airdrops will be distributed weekly, with snapshots recorded based on VIRTUAL staking and Virtuals ecosystem activity.
