PANews reported on December 22 that, according to an official announcement from Web3 robotics company XMAQUINA, XMAQUINA will partner with Virtuals Protocol to conduct a final public sale of its $DEUS tokens. This sale will be a community-centric initial coin offering (ICO) aimed at promoting an open, decentralized, and composable ecosystem of humanoid robots and physical AI.
This sale accepts both $USDC and $VIRTUAL tokens. $VIRTUAL will be used to provide seed funding for the $DEUS/$VIRTUAL liquidity pool, expected to launch during the Token Generation Event (TGE), with an initial total locked value exceeding $1 million. The auction will begin at 20:00 Beijing time on January 8, 2026. The initial price of $DEUS is $0.06, with a total estimated value of $60 million. 33% of the tokens will be released during the TGE, and the remaining 67% will be linearly unlocked over 12 months.
