Pump.fun has revolutionized meme coin creation since launching on Solana in January 2024, enabling anyone to create and list tokens instantly without coding. The platform's innovative bonding-curve AMM system automatically locks 80% of liquidity while giving creators 20%, combined with social features like live streams and leaderboards. This powerful combination has driven explosive growth, with over 11 million tokens created and $750M+ in protocol revenue to date.

The ecosystem includes both the token launch platform and swap.pump.fun AMM, supported by the PUMP utility token which offers holder benefits while maintaining permissionless access. By merging seamless token creation with community trading features, Pump.fun has become Solana's premier destination for meme coin activity, democratizing crypto launches while fostering a vibrant trading community.
