- It is the first meme coin index in the world, granting investors access to a basket of Solana-based meme coins.
What is Vantard (VTARD)?
Vantard is one of the new projects that is helping diversify the cryptocurrency market. According to the development team, Vantard (VTARD) is the world’s first meme coin index.
It will help investors take advantage of the growing $45 billion memecoin market. Per the whitepaper, VTARD holders can redeem tokens against the Treasury for their proportional percentage of the underlying assets. The team explained that Vantard will hold a portfolio of top Solana-based meme coins.
As a meme coin index, Vantard will enable investors to broaden their cryptocurrency portfolio. Meme coins have become an important sector within the crypto space as they trade on attention and launch with fully circulating supplies, allowing fair and open market price discovery.
With Vantard, investors can fully leverage the ‘Memecoin Supercycle’ as it delivers exciting new projects to their portfolios. The YTD (year-to-date) performance of meme coins has outshone every other crypto sector and could surge higher in the coming months. Vantard is the ideal tool for making money in the meme coin supercycle.

Vantard raises over $200k in its seed round so far
Vantard raised $500k in its pre-seed funding round and has now opened the seed funding round to investors. So far, the project has raised $200k in the seed round, with investors taking advantage of the opportunity to purchase $VTARD tokens at a discount.
Currently, $VTARD is worth $0.00011 per coin, and the price is set to increase to $0.00012 in two days. Investors can purchase the $VTARD tokens via the Vantard website using the USDC, USDT, and Ethereum coins.
Meme coins have a combined market cap of over $40 billion, which is expected to increase in the coming months and years. However, with thousands of meme coins now available, the challenge for investors is finding the ideal ones to invest in.
Thanks to the advent of Vantard, investors don’t have to worry about finding the best meme coins to invest in. Vantard does this on their behalf, choosing the best Solana-based meme coins to add to their portfolios. Vantard exposes investors to the upside in a light-touch investment vehicle. Vantard lets users ‘Ride the Memecoin Supercycle.’
Thanks to its exposure to meme coins, Vantard could outperform other major indices in the broader financial markets in the coming months.
Should you invest in the Vantard project?
The cryptocurrency market has already seen Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs). However, Vantard is setting a record by becoming the first index to track the leading meme coins on the Solana blockchain.
Thanks to its unique value proposition, the $VTARD token could be one of the top tokens in the crypto space in the coming bullish cycle. The Vantard token trades as a reflection of the Treasury’s NAV (Net Asset Value) and can be redeemed for the assets held in it.
With the right level of adoption, $VTARD’s value could soar in the coming months and years.

Coinbase Launches Tool for Creating AI Agents
- Coinbase launched a tool, called Based Agent, that allows people to create AI agents that can automate tasks like swaps and staking.
- The tool uses technology from Coinbase SDK, OpenAI, and Replit to allow anyone to create an AI agent in under three minutes.
Coinbase announced Based Agent, a tool for creating AI agents that can perform a myriad of tasks, from swapping to staking, bridging, and even registering crypto domain names by interacting with various smart contracts and other AI agents where necessary.
Coinbase pushes for AI agents
Based Agent isn’t Coinbase’s first foray into AI agents. Members of the company have, in the past, used AI for various purposes or to prove its viability. Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase, in August, oversaw transactions between two AI agents where one agent paid the other using tokens.
More recently, Head of Protocols at Coinbase, Jesse Pollak, highlighted an AI bot on Twitter, called Luna, that autonomously tipped users to engage with its content.
Truth Terminal, the Twitter AI chatbot that was instrumental in creating the Goatseus Maximus memecoin that currently trades at a $700 million market cap, also exemplifies the progress AI agents have made in recent months.
AI Agents still face development hurdles
The growth of AI agents is not without its drawbacks. A major one is the inability of AI agents to figure out bank accounts, and hence, automate off-chain payments. AI agents cannot book hotels, buy plane tickets, or manage recurring subscriptions.
However, efforts are being made to bridge that gap by developing onchain payment methods that integrate with the real-world. In August, a blockchain development firm called Skyfire created a platform that allows AI agents spend money autonomously.
Biconomy, a Web3 infrastructure company launched a Delegated Authorization Network to serve as an authorization layer for AI agents to trade tokens on behalf of users.
Meanwhile, the Base network allows AI agents to use USDC to transact with people and other AI agents in real-time. However, this feature has not penetrated real-world payments.
Despite the gap, the development of AI agents continues to grow and may account for 80% of all blockchain transactions in 6-12 months, according to Mode Network founder James Ross.

Bitcoin Dogs price: What’s the outlook as BTC spikes above $68k?
- Bitcoin Dogs rose 30% in two weeks before paring gains.
- Bitcoin price is back above $68,000 after last week’s slip halted bulls’ momentum.
- With BTC regaining control above $68k, could this spark Bitcoin Dogs price?
New upside momentum has pushed Bitcoin (BTC) above $68,500 following last week’s sharp decline that saw bears reject movement above $69,000.
As BTC price refreshed recent gains at the time of writing, most altcoins were also positive. This includes many coins to recently see huge gains amid meme coin resurgence. The price of Bitcoin Dogs (0DOG), which gained more than 30% in two weeks, hovered at a key level, notably with sellers still in action with a 5% dip in 24 hours.
But can a surging Bitcoin spark new gains for 0DOG?
Analysts see Bitcoin bull cycle intact
Despite recent struggles below $70k, Bitcoin price remains largely on track for a major bull cycle.
Analysts have pointed to BTC’s resilience above support levels near $65k as indicator a shakeout of weak hands is nearly done. With “Uptober” having played its role for bulls, a series of economic releases this week and the US election next week stand out as major factors to consider.
The continued investment in spot Bitcoin ETFs, and potential adoption of BTC strategy by Microsoft could add to this momentum. On spot ETFs, US BTC funds saw net inflows of over $998 million last week, with the market on another positive streak.
Crypto analyst Rekt Capital says BTC’s “more bullish outcome” is a reality amid the weekly close.

BTC gains and Bitcoin Dogs price
If Bitcoin breaks above $70k and manages a new all-time high amid positive catalysts, it’s likely the next few months could see it target $100k.
The benchmark asset’s ecosystem being bullish would mean a whole lot of top tokens could go parabolic. BRC-20 tokens for instance are up 6% to $1.55 billion as Bitcoin nudges higher.
Bitcoin Dogs, a cryptocurrency project for GameFi and NFTs on Bitcoin, has seen its native token rally higher in recent weeks. However, 0DOG has also dipped in tandem with BTC, with recent price levels coming amid a profit taking bout that follows a 30% upside in two weeks.
Currently, Bitcoin Dogs is down 5% as price hovers near $0.009. However, amid a major spike for Bitcoin and meme coins last week, 0DOG rose more than 100% as bulls jumped from near $0.0066 to over $0.013 between Oct. 21 and Oct. 22.
What could catalyze gains for 0DOG?
While 0DOG’s gains mirrored the broader market, there’s another catalyst likely at play. Having made history as the world’s first BRC-20 ICO on Bitcoin, the Bitcoin Dogs project is poised for one of its biggest milestones.
In a recent update, the project posted a teaser of its upcoming game. Bitcoin Dogs has an AMA scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 29 that will feature game and NFTs release.
All this is part of a massive news release and key to the roadmap. The project wants to deliver a play-to-earn game with an in-game token BARK and the native utility token 0DOG. 0DOG holders have exclusive access to the game and can earn more from a P2E experience leveraging the Bitcoin network.
Excitement for the game’s upcoming launch, potential exchange listings and a rally for BTC suggest ODOG price could explode.
