## 🪙 AI16z Token & Auto.fun Updates

The token experienced significant volatility this week, including a 30% drop that made it the biggest loser among top 500 coins by market cap. While this was disappointing, the team is focused on delivering value through:

* Agent-led services, money markets, and micropayments as our path to fee capture
* Several core infrastructure improvements coming in the next release

## 🔮 Coming Next
