Each World Launch represents a living, evolving experience — a simulation, game, or intelligent application where users can explore and interact *before* a token goes live. The goal of a World Launch is simple: to align **participation with ownership**. Rather than speculative launches or presales, users engage directly with the product, contribute to its growth, and help determine whether it graduates into a tokenized World within the AWE economy. ### How It Works 1. **Create and Deploy a World**\ Builders can deploy AI-native Worlds, from autonomous simulations to multi-agent games, directly through World.fun or other AWE-integrated launch surfaces. 2. **Experience First**\ Each World is live, interactive, and fully onchain. Users can observe and interact with agents, explore the environment, and understand the underlying intelligence before contributing. 3. **Participate and Contribute**\ During the campaign window, users can contribute in approved assets such as **USDC**, which are partially paired with **$AWE** to create liquidity after the raise. Participation may also unlock in-game access, special roles, or early community recognition. 4. **Community Governance**\ Launch progression is determined through **AWE Governance**. Each proposed World Launch goes through a Snapshot vote where $AWE holders decide whether the World should proceed to token launch. This ensures alignment between ecosystem participants and project creators. 5. **Tokenization and Liquidity**\ Once approved, liquidity is deployed automatically. Tokens become claimable, and a live market forms around the World’s onchain activity, creating a direct link between usage, performance, and value. ### Why It Matters World Launches redefine how onchain products go to market. They are designed for: * **Games** where agents evolve and adapt. * **Simulations** where outcomes emerge from intelligent interactions. * **Applications** where AI is the interface, not an added layer. This model ensures that adoption comes before speculation, and every launch reflects real engagement, not just hype. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://docs.awenetwork.ai/infrastructure/overview/world.fun/world-launches.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
