What was done
Truth Terminal became one of the most viral AI agent stories of 2024-2025. Starting as a basic autonomous AI agent that posted on Twitter independently for months, it developed a following through its unfiltered commentary. It eventually convinced venture capitalist Marc Andreessen to donate $50,000 to its crypto wallet. The agent then promoted the meme coin Goatseus Maximus ($GOAT), causing the token's market cap to rise to over $1.2 billion within days — demonstrating the unpredictable influence autonomous AI agents can wield on social media and financial markets.
