XMAQUINA x VIRTUALS: Opening Access to the Humanoid Era

The final $DEUS public sale is coming. XMAQUINA has partnered with Virtuals Protocol, one of the breakout projects of 2025, to deliver a first-of-its-kind community-first token launch.

With over 1 million unique wallets and daily trading volumes exceeding $25 million, Virtuals has emerged as a category leader in onchain AI agents and one of the most active ecosystems in crypto today. Now, as they expand into the robotics space, the collaboration brings together two communities with a shared vision that the rise of humanoids and Physical AI should not be captured by closed platforms or corporate gatekeepers. Instead, it should be built as an open ecosystem, decentralized, composable, and governed by the communities that fund and contribute to it.

This community sale is the final window to secure $DEUS early while simultaneously capitalizing the DAO to expand its portfolio across the humanoid robotics sector, strengthening the fundamentals of the ecosystem ahead of what could be a defining year for the robotics industry.

Swaps will be accepted in both $USDC and $VIRTUAL. $VIRTUAL contributed will be used to seed the $DEUS / $VIRTUAL liquidity pool at the time of the $DEUS TGE, launching with over $1M in TVL. The pool will act as a key trading venue connecting both communities and enabling a seamless trading experience.

This is the final opportunity to secure $DEUS at pre-launch terms, contribute to the growth of the DAO’s robotics treasury, and gain early exposure to the private robotics market.

DAO Progress Report

XMAQUINA’s thesis has been playing out in real time.

The DAO’s Apptronik position has already appreciated over 100 percent in just a few months, following rapid commercial progress at the company. The DAO also secured an early allocation in 1X Technologies at a 4.55 billion valuation, just ahead of their NEO pre-order launch and announcement of a 9 billion dollar round.

Yes, the DAO’s 1X position is now 2X.

Alongside existing stakes in Figure AI and Agility Robotics, the DAO now holds equity in four of the most foundational companies building general-purpose humanoids. And this is just the beginning.

As private valuations soar and early-stage access remains limited, the DAO continues to execute on its strategy by expanding its exposure to the world’s top robotics companies.

The DAO’s deal flow and pipeline continue to grow, with multiple new proposals incoming. To track the portfolio and participate in governance, visit dao.xmaquina.io 

NEURA Robotics Is Next

The DAO’s next target is NEURA Robotics, a rising force in cognitive humanoids based in Germany. The Execution Engine has sourced an allocation, and an incoming proposal is expected to be brought to the DAO shortly.

The company’s partnership with NVIDIA, its proprietary AURA operating system, and the launch of its developer platform Neuraverse position NEURA as a category-defining contender in the emerging Physical AI landscape. With commercial pilots rolling out in 2026 and a plan to deploy 5 million humanoids by 2030, NEURA may be Europe’s boldest bet in robotics.

As the DAO enters its next wave of allocations, the Northstar Council has also identified key targets across China and the US, including AgiBot, Unitree, Sunday Robotics, and Physical Intelligence.

The chart below outlines current positions, evaluated companies, and those with proposals incoming.
