The Solana $144-based memecoin incubation center, Pump.Fun, is capturing attention in the 2024 crypto market cycle. The platform reaches unprecedented levels in user acceptance while breaking records in monthly fee revenues and daily token launches.
Record Growth in Revenue and Daily Users
According to blockchain analysis firm DefiLlama, Pump.Fun’s monthly fee revenues exceeded $27.7 million in November. If the current growth rate continues, this figure is expected to reach $41.6 million by the end of the month. The previous month’s record of $30.5 million may be surpassed by a 36% increase.
Daily active user numbers also show a similar upward trend. Data from Dune Analytics indicates that on Tuesday, 175,910 wallet addresses were active on the platform. This represents a twofold increase from a month ago. Additionally, daily token launches reached 51,257, a significant rise compared to last month’s maximum, which did not exceed 36,000 on any day.
New Memecoins and Ecosystem Growth
Pump.Fun’s success reflects the rapid growth of the memecoin ecosystem. So far, 13 memecoins have been created on the platform, each with a market cap exceeding $100 million. Notably, Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT) stands out with a market cap of $1.5 billion, while Goatseus Maximus (GOAT) has reached $937 million.
Nansen research analyst Nicolai Søndergaard commented that “Pump.Fun’s success shows users’ growing interest in the memecoin ecosystem.” Søndergaard believes this interest may not be sustainable in the long term, but records will likely continue to be broken in the short term. Scott Guenther, finance head at 0x, noted that increased on-chain activity brings vibrancy to the crypto market.
Pump.Fun is attracting significant interest from both seasoned and new investors. The platform’s high volume of daily token launches and increasing user participation indicate that memecoins are continuing to strengthen their impact in the crypto world.
