12 minutes. <\/p>\n

That\u2019s how long it took for Pump.fun\u2019s token offering to raise roughly $500 million from retail investors across various exchanges, including Bybit, Kraken, and KuCoin.<\/p>\n

The sale priced 125 billion tokens at $0.004 apiece, implying a $4 billion fully diluted valuation for the Solana-based memecoin launcher\u2019s new utility token.<\/p>\n

For now, holders must wait to get their hands on the token they bought. <\/p>\n

Pump.fun said the purchased tokens will land in wallets over the next 48\u201372 hours and will stay locked until distribution ends, blocking trades or transfers. <\/p>\n

The team shared<\/a> the official Solana contract address\u2014 pumpCmXqMfrsAkQ5r49WcJnRayYRqmXz6ae8H7H9Dfn\u2014 and warned users to shun look-alike assets.<\/p>\n

In total, Pump.fun\u2019s ICO was set to sell 33% of PUMP\u2019s 1 trillion token supply, with 18% having already been allocated earlier via a private sale. The public allocation was recently lowered from 15% to 12.5%, which sold out in just 12 minutes.<\/p>\n

Its other allocations<\/a> include 20% for the team behind the project, 24% for community and ecosystem incentives, 13% for existing investors, 2.6% for liquidity, 2.4% for an ecosystem fund, with the remaining for a foundation fund and live streaming incentives.<\/p>\n

Pump.fun allows anyone to mint and list a coin with a new token in a few clicks. When a freshly minted token reaches a specific threshold, it gets listed on decentralized exchanges.<\/p>\n

The sale comes as the token launchpad\u2019s metrics show a deepening decline in activity. DeFiLlama data shows that in January Pump.fun\u2019s launchpad volume was above $11.6 billion, and has since been steadily declining to $3.65 billion last month.<\/p>\n

Similarly, revenue generated via the launchpad dropped from $133 million in the first month of the year to nearly $34 million last month, according to DeFiLlama<\/a> data.<\/p>\n

While launchpad volumes plunged, Pump.fun\u2019s decentralized exchange PumpSwap<\/a>, which was launched in March, has been making up for the decline, seeing $14.3 billion of volume in May and $10 billion last month. Revenue for PumpSwap stood at $7 and $5 million for those months, per the same data source<\/a>.<\/p>\n
