Pump.fun, a Solana-based token launch platform, has generated $10.03 million in protocol fees during the week of August 3 to 9, marking the first time its weekly total has crossed $10 million. The platform's fees increased 12% from the previous week as trading activity recovered across its launchpad, PumpSwap exchange, and Terminal trading product.
Revenue Comparison
Pump.fun has overtaken Hyperliquid in revenue measured over 30 days, with $35.67 million in revenue compared to Hyperliquid's $32.46 million, according to DefiLlama's data. However, the comparison requires care as DefiLlama measures the protocols differently.
Trading Activity
Pump.fun reported $2.97 billion in ecosystem volume during the week, its strongest trading week since late January. The platform also used $5.02 million to purchase and burn approximately 2.15 billion PUMP tokens, part of its commitment to route 50% of revenue toward PUMP buybacks and burns.
Token Performance
PUMP was trading near $0.0028 on August 11, with a gain of about 33.8% over seven days and 104.1% over 30 days, taking its circulating market capitalization to about $1.1 billion. The token remains roughly 68% below its September 2025 record high.
