# Circus Overview

Circus is an experimental launchpad for onchain tokens powered by culture. It’s where memes, rumors, alpha, and speculation get instantly tokenized straight from the social feed to the Solana blockchain.

We started with **JestrBot**, the first in-feed token launcher on X and Farcaster. It was fast, messy, and proved the demand was real. Since then, **we haven’t stopped experimenting**.

Circus is now a living protocol that is constantly iterating on new ways to launch, trade, and stake tokens natively within social platforms.

We power:

* **Daily AI-curated Spotlight Drops**: One token per day, chosen by Sola.
* **Permissionless token launches** from anywhere your feed takes you.
* **A creator-first economy** where launchers earn 70% of all fees.
* **A staking layer** to reward long-term believers.

Whether you're a degenerate gambler, a trend-sniping scroller, or a builder ready to mint your moment—**Circus is your arena**.
