Pump.fun memecoin launchpad sees a dramatic drop in token graduations due to waning interest and market challenges.

What’s the Scoop?

  • Record Highs to Slump: Pump.fun hit a peak on Jan. 23 with 71,735 token launches and $3B in daily trading volume. On Feb. 26, launches slid to 25,385.
  • Graduation Rate Drop: After hitting 24,008 graduated tokens in January, this month’s numbers sank to 11,532, marking a steep decline.
  • Liquidity Burn Mechanism: Once a token reaches a ~$100k cap, Pump.fun provides ~$17k liquidity on Raydium and burns LP tokens to reduce rug-pull risks.
  • Hype Fades: Celebrity-fueled tokens from Trump and Milei sparked initial mania, but memecoin fatigue has set in, driving the frenzy to new lows.
