Pump.fun Cuts Creators a Slice: Revenue Sharing Model Aims to Stop the ’Pump-and-Dump’ Circus
Meme coin factory Pump.fun just tossed creators a lifeline—or maybe a golden leash. The platform now shares trading fee revenue with token deployers, a move designed to incentivize less rug-pulling and more actual building.
Will it work? Early signs suggest creators are biting—after all, even degenerate gamblers like recurring revenue streams. But let’s be real: in crypto, ’long-term’ usually means holding until the next Binance listing.
The twist? This isn’t charity. Pump.fun takes 1.5% on every trade, then kicks back 0.5% to creators. Simple math says the house still wins—but at least now the clowns get a percentage.
