Learn how the Virtuals Protocol Pre-buy module lets AI agent token launch founders buy token supply before trading, with disclosed tokenomics and configurable vesting.
The free Pre-buy module lets founders purchase up to 100% of total token supply during creation. It enables founder token purchases before public trading opens.
Pre-purchased tokens are:
Transparently disclosed in the Agent Launch Page tokenomics section
Subject to a default one-month cliff and 12-month linear vesting schedule
Visible to the community before token trading opens
Pre-buy can help founders stabilize early token markets, prevent sniping, and signal conviction through direct participation.
The default vesting schedule has a one-month cliff and 12 months of linear vesting.
Founders can adjust these vesting parameters before launch. Tokenomics remain transparent for participants.
If Automated Capital Formation is active and founders self-purchase above $2 million FDV at TGE, corresponding ACF tokens are reclassified as Team Allocation. They are not distributed immediately.
This prevents early founder token purchases from accelerating capital release.
Once the Agent Card is live, teams cannot use Pre-buy without relaunching the AI agent.
To add Pre-buy after the Agent Card is deployed, teams must cancel the existing token launch and create a new one. This cancellation and relaunch is available until one day before the scheduled launch. Module fees are not refunded.
