Market Outlook for Pump.fun

The Pump.fun platform has played a crucial role in the overall growth and success of the Solana network in the past year. Furthermore, a significant portion of Solana memecoins, which have a  market cap of about $10 billion, were created in Pump.fun.

However, the emergence of the Bonk (BONK)-backed memecoin launchpad dubbed LetsBONK.fun has significantly reduced Pump.fun’s market share.
