Pump.fun hits $13.48M weekly revenue, highest in six months
Pump.fun has surged back to the top of the Solana launchpad ecosystem, recording its highest weekly revenue in six months — $13.48 million.
The platform has regained approximately 90% of the market share after a sharp reversal from rival LetsBonk, which now holds under 3%, down from over 80% just two weeks ago, reports Cryptopolitan.
The number of token launches and trading volume reflect this resurgence: Pump.fun has launched over 19,000 tokens today alone, with a 24-hour trading volume of $133.9 million. Analysts attribute this shift to the return of top memecoin deployers, particularly automated bots, which had previously migrated to LetsBonk.
Strategic buybacks and bot activity fuel Pump.fun’s recovery
Pump.fun’s aggressive tokenomics strategy has played a key role in its turnaround. Between August 5 and 11, the platform repurchased $8.42 million worth of its native PUMP token — 97% of that week’s revenue. In total, $33.13 million worth of PUMP has been bought back, representing 0.729% of the total token supply.
Although PUMP has dropped 17.33% this week to $0.002877, the buybacks have stabilized short-term price action following the steep declines in July. Bot-driven token launches have also contributed significantly to the recovery, with Coinbase’s Conor Grogan highlighting that most memecoins are now deployed by automated systems on Pump.fun.
LetsBonk scrambles to respond amid fading market share
In contrast, LetsBonk’s fall from dominance has been rapid. Despite briefly holding 74% of the daily launch market in July, it now accounts for less than 3%. BONK, its native token, is down over 7% this week and more than 50% from its all-time high. To reverse the trend, the platform has launched a new “Points” tab and pledged to use 1% of its revenue for token buybacks.
Still, user activity tells the story: Pump.fun has 38,295 active users and over 548,000 recent transactions, compared to LetsBonk’s 633 users and 33,716 transactions. With Pump.fun’s latest revenue milestone, the pressure mounts on competitors as the Solana launchpad wars escalate.
Recently we wrote that Solana-based memecoin launchpad Pump.fun recorded just $24.96 million in revenue for July, marking its lowest monthly revenue in 2025, according to data from DeFiLlama.
