The author reports going from zero to Solana mainnet in roughly seventy-two hours, with DJ Sosa’s $SOSA token live; no achievement of the fee target is reported.
Reported by caseyolayos on Hacker NewsHow the agent did it
- Directed the agent to write the Rust/Anchor program.
- Used the agent to debug the IDL.
- Had the agent build the Next.js frontend.
Where a person stepped in
The builder supplied direction; the post does not describe code review, security auditing or deployment approval steps.
A person approved each step before the agent continued.
The FanStake builder reports using a Claude-based agent inside OpenClaw to do most of the development of a music-artist token platform. The human supplied direction while the agent wrote the Rust/Anchor program, debugged the IDL, built a Next.js frontend and deployed to Vercel. The author says the project went from nothing to Solana mainnet in roughly seventy-two hours.
The platform lets artists launch tokens on a bonding curve. According to the post, fans can buy early and sell on-chain, while demand affects price. The stated design includes a one-percent platform fee and an allocation of ten percent of token supply to the artist at launch. The first artist token, DJ Sosa's $SOSA, was already live on mainnet when the author posted.
The agent also had a thirty-day target to generate a thousand dollars in platform fees. It was posting on Twitter, writing Reddit posts and shipping features autonomously toward that goal. The post does not say the target was reached. Who it's for: developers investigating agent-assisted blockchain application builds who can evaluate generated programs and direct deployment work.
