While Alon confirmed that an airdrop will happen, he stressed that the team is prioritizing long-term ecosystem development over immediate token rewards.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>We want to make sure that it is a meaningful airdrop and it is executed well. That being said, the airdrop is not going to be taking place in the immediate future.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>But this decision is controversial. When you launch a token and promise an airdrop, it\u2019s supposed to reward early supporters: the people who helped you build momentum. Delaying it indefinitely opens the door to airdrop farming and undermines trust. Waiting a year to reward loyal users defeats the whole purpose.<\/p>\n<p>The decision to delay, paired with whale exits at a loss, suggests diminishing confidence in short-term price action.<\/p>\n<p>Pump.fun, for now, remains a dominant force in Solana\u2019s token ecosystem, having generated $774 million in revenue and launched over 12 million tokens. But unless the team restores community trust and delivers on its promises, PUMP may continue to face downside pressure, especially with newer competitors like LetsBonk gaining ground.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-live-articles-list\">\n<div class=\"nnbtc-updates-container\">\n<div class=\"nnbtc-live-article\" id=\"article-263590\" data-timestamp=\"1753346653\" data-modified=\"1753346653\">\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-meta\">\n\t\t<span class=\"nnbtc-update-time-dot\"><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t<a class=\"nnbtc-update-time\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/altcoins\/pump-price-crashes-amid-airdrop-delay-as-btc-fights-to-hold-117000\/#article-263590\" target=\"_self\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t2 hours\t\t\tago\t\t<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-title\">\n<h2>Solana Crypto Price Touched $200 Before -9% Sell Off: Best Crypto to Buy Now?<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-author\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-09-at-7.24.08%E2%80%AFPM.jpg\" class=\"nnbtc-custom-avatar\" width=\"44\" height=\"44\" alt=\"Akiyama Felix\">\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div>\n\t\t\t\tBy  <span class=\"nnbtc-author-name\">Akiyama Felix<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-update-content\">\n<p>Solana has been on a wild ride recently, surging more than 10% from $180 to $200 in 3 days.

This means futures traders are selling more than buying, adding to the bearish pressure.<\/p>\n<p>While XRP remains one of the strongest altcoins of the cycle, these indicators point to a possible short-term correction.
