- Pump.fun surpassed $1 billion in cumulative earnings, becoming the first Solana-based platform to hit the milestone.
- Its token, PUMP, rallied over 5% in 24 hours, outperforming Bitcoin and Solana itself.
- Domain records suggest the memecoin launchpad may be preparing to expand to Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain, and Monad.
The memecoin launchpad Pump.fun celebrated a historic $1 billion in cumulative earnings on Thursday, driving its native token’s price higher amid speculation of a major cross-chain expansion. This milestone solidifies its dominance over other Solana-native platforms like Raydium and Jupiter, according to DefiLlama data. Pump.fun generated approximately $321 million in 2024, $664 million in 2025, and $98 million so far in 2026.
Consequently, the PUMP token’s price jumped more than 5% to $0.00208, significantly outperforming Bitcoin’s 1.5% gain. However, PUMP remains over 75% below its all-time high set in September 2025. Retail sentiment on Stocktwits cooled to ‘bullish’ from ‘extremely bullish’ despite extremely high message volume.
Meanwhile, speculation about expansion grew after public domain records spotted by Solana Floor showed subdomains for Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain, and Monad. This follows the platform’s removal of “Solana” from its X profile location and recent strategic acquisitions. The platform also executed its daily $1.25 million token buyback, paring some gains from its record earnings.
