In a bid to strengthen its position, Pump.Fun has launched a revenue-sharing model for token creators on Solana as of May 12, 2025.
Pump.Fun’s new model offers token creators shared revenue, potentially reshaping the memecoin market and enhancing community engagement.
The largest memecoin launchpad on Solana, Pump.Fun, initiated a revenue-sharing model that awards token creators 50% of PumpSwap’s revenue. This announcement aims to retain Pump.Fun’s market leadership amid growing competition.
The revenue-sharing structure allows creators to earn 0.05% in SOL for trades of their tokens. By sharing PumpSwap revenue, Pump.Fun incentivizes creators to generate substantial trading volumes on the platform, reinforcing its competitive edge.
This initiative is expected to impact the SOL currency, as rewards are paid in SOL. It aligns with Pump.Fun’s strategy to strengthen market positioning against emerging competitors and maintains its influence on the Solana blockchain.
Pump.fun retains a dominant position despite challenges from competitors like Launchlabs. Historical trends show competitors often struggle against Pump.fun’s established market and community presence.
“A creator whose token generates $10 million in trading volume would receive approximately $5,000 in SOL through this program,” Pump.fun Team, Announcement, Pump.fun.
Potential financial and technological outcomes might include increased Solana adoption. This incentive could enhance trading volumes, providing creators with a revenue stream that supports further platform activities. Historical precedents suggest continued dominance for Pump.fun.
