Pump.fun Revenue Crashes to 10-Month Low Amid Legal and Competitive Pressures
Pump.fun, once the dominant platform for memecoin launches, is facing a steep decline in revenue, dropping below $300,000 daily—its lowest level since September 2024. This marks a dramatic fall from its January peak of over $7 million per day. Traders are increasingly migrating to rival platforms, compounding the challenges for Pump.fun.
The platform's struggles are multifaceted. A class-action lawsuit filed in New York alleges fraudulent practices, including rigged token launches and insider trading. Legal scrutiny has intensified, with additional accusations of wire fraud further eroding user trust. Competitive pressures and shifting market dynamics have also contributed to the platform's waning momentum.
Once a hub for rapid token launches, Pump.fun now grapples with a loss of confidence and dwindling activity. The broader memecoin market, meanwhile, continues to evolve, with traders seeking alternatives that offer greater transparency and reliability.
