According to the tokenomics, the total supply will be 1 trillion PUMP.

During the ICO, the “meme token factory” plans to sell 33% of the supply at $0.004 per coin: 18% will be sold in private rounds to institutional buyers and 15% through public offerings.

The sale will continue until July 15 or until all assets are sold. Residents of the US and UK are not eligible to participate in the public sale.

The initial offering will take place on centralized exchanges Bybit, Kraken, Bitget, and MEXC.

The remaining supply will be distributed as follows:

• 24% for community and ecosystem initiatives;
• 20% to the team;
• 13% to investors;
• 4.4% to project funds;
• 3% for streaming;
• 2.6% for liquidity.

The Pump.fun team has not disclosed additional information about the airdrop or other community incentive initiatives.

According to DeFi Llama, the meme token platform has generated nearly $715 million in revenue since its launch in January 2024. In the past month, Pump.fun earned over $35 million.

However, the project has encountered competition on the Solana network from LetsBonk. On July 8, the launchpad surpassed Pump.fun in daily revenue and the number of tokens launched.

Back in May, experts suggested a potential weakening of the “meme factory’s” dominance as similar projects emerged.
