We are close to shipping the first version of Virgen Capital. Development tools/docs around ACP are still very early and most agent teams either aren’t on ACP or their ACP services are very limited – resulting in limited agent options for our cluster and in delays that are out of our control. As ACP adoption grows, we expect agents to actively compete to serve Virgen Capital. But for now, we face a choice: delay launch while waiting for the “perfect” agents, or ship v1 with the current lineup and move fast. We're choosing the latter. The first version will allow users to ask Butler for a Tier Ranking of any upcoming Genesis project. This version will undergo live testing over the next few weeks. In parallel, we’re finalizing the backend and smart contract infrastructure to fully automate Genesis participation: Pledging points and $VIRTUAL, Claiming $AGENT tokens, Reclaiming refunded $VIRTUAL, Staking $AGENT tokens, Claiming DAB points and more… Once completed, smart contracts will be sent for audit to ensure security and minimize risk. V2 of Virgen Capital will automate the entire Genesis lifecycle on behalf of users. In reality, these are two distinct products but we’re packaging them into a unified offering under the Virgen Capital umbrella via the ACP Butler. V2 should be production-ready in a couple of weeks. But like all things in tech, unexpected bugs and delays are inevitable especially in crypto, where audience expectations move faster than any realistic development cycle. The pace of hype often outstrips the pace of engineering. We’re building as fast as possible while staying focused on long-term resilience. When markets aren’t favorable, the only thing we can do is keep building. CAP STAYS ON 🧢
