Pumpfun Set to Drop Official PUMP Token in High-Stakes Public Sale July 12 – Don’t Miss the Ride

Memecoin mania gets a fresh rocket fuel injection as Pumpfun announces its official PUMP token public sale—just days away on July 12. The launch could either mint new degenerates… sorry, *investors*… or become another cautionary tale in crypto’s casino economy.

Why This One’s Different

Unlike the usual anonymous dev rug pulls, Pumpfun’s backing its namesake token with actual platform utility—allegedly. The project’s betting that combining meme hype with real use cases (or at least the illusion of them) will dodge the typical ‘pump-and-dump’ trajectory.

Timing Is Everything

With Bitcoin hovering near all-time highs and altcoin season in full swing, Pumpfun’s riding the market’s irrational exuberance. Smart? Opportunistic? Both? Either way, mark your calendars—this public sale drops right as retail FOMO hits peak velocity.

One Last Jab

Because no crypto story’s complete without irony: a token called PUMP launching during history’s most obvious liquidity bubble. May your gains be real and your exit strategy sharper than the average ape’s.

Revenue falls 92% from January peak as user interest declines

In spite of its scheduled token launch, Pump.fun has suffered a significant drop in its protocol income and fee earnings. According to on-chain metrics provided by DeFi Llama, daily revenue dropped to $533,410 on July 6. Fees generated were less than $922,890- a daily low since March 2025. The platform generated a high of $7.07 million in revenue and fees on January 23.

This is a 92% drop in revenue and 86% in fees. Despite the temporary surge in late March that saw fees rebound to $6.6 million, revenue did not pass $2.05 million across the same interval.

This trend of weakness can also be found in monthly data. Pump.fun recorded a combined fee and revenue of $137.12 million in January. In June, the fee totals fell to $64.47 million, or only about half the high mark. June revenues were only $39.08 million, or less than 30% of the January high. According to Dune Analytics, as of July, less than 0.01 percent of addresses had generated more than $1 million in profits on the platform, with more than 60% of users registering losses.

Recently, Pump.fun has received renewed competition in the form of BONKs meme coin launchpad, LetsBonk, backflipping Pump.fun in tokens created for the first time on Monday. Notable meme tokens such as Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) and Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT) were generated on Pump.fun, and other previously popular tokens are generated through the platform, such as Moo Deng and Chill Guy.
