1. Project Overview

Pump.fun is a meme coin launch platform that allows users to issue tokens that can be traded immediately without providing liquidity. Pump ensures that all created tokens are securely traded through a safe and proven token launch system. Pump enables anyone to issue a token for less than $2, and when any token’s market cap reaches $69,000, a portion of liquidity is deposited into the Solana-based exchange Raydium and subsequently burned. Every token on Pump is fairly issued—there are no presales and no team allocations. Users buy or sell tokens on a bonding curve, and Pump takes a 1% fee (in SOL) from each transaction. When tokens graduate from Pump to Raydium, the platform charges a fixed fee of 6 SOL.

2. How It Works

Pump prevents fraud by ensuring all created tokens are safe. Every token on the platform is fairly issued, with no presales and no team allocations.

 

Steps:

1. Choose your preferred token

2. Buy the token on the bonding curve

3. Sell at any time to lock in profit or take a loss

4. When enough users buy on the bonding curve, the token’s market cap reaches $69,000

5. $12,000 in liquidity is deposited into Raydium and burned
