Pump.fun Launches Fund for Meme Coins on Solana, Reclaims Sector Leadership

The platform Pump.fun has launched the Glass Full Foundation (GFF), an initiative aimed at developing the meme coin ecosystem on Solana.

The new structure will “inject significant liquidity” into selected tokens to support “the most dedicated communities.” GFF has already funded several unnamed projects and plans further investments.

Specific selection criteria and sources of capital have yet to be disclosed.

According to The Block, such funds are typically non-profit organizations created to manage project development. Representatives of Pump.fun stated that GFF will accelerate the growth of the Solana ecosystem, strengthening the blockchain’s position in the competitive meme coin segment.

Following the news, the platform’s token, launched in July—PUMP—rose by 3.3%, according to CoinGecko. At the time of writing, the crypto asset is trading at $0.003378.
