Pump.fun has announced the launch of its PUMP token, which will be offered on its platform and exchanges like Gate.io, with a 25% revenue sharing for token holders.
Launch of PUMP Token and Revenue Sharing
The PUMP token will be launched on July 12, 2025. An anticipated valuation of $4 billion aims to enhance investor interest. Despite the official announcement, details on the methods of revenue sharing remain unclear. Investors and insiders reportedly expect high returns.
Discussion in the Crypto Community
Crypto experts like Mike Dudas and Haseeb Qureshi have expressed positive views on PUMP’s prospects.
> "I would imagine there’s going to be some element of putting revenue to work on behalf of token holders. I won’t get too specific about that and there’s also going to be some component of a token that rewards folks who use the platform." - Mike Dudas
Market and Long-term Prospects
Following the announcement, minor price fluctuations were observed in the market. Solana experienced a 0.49% uptick, but uncertainty regarding the mechanisms of revenue sharing breeds caution among investors. The long-term success of Pump.fun will likely hinge on transparent communication and clearly demonstrated revenue strategies.
In the future, stakeholders will closely monitor potential regulatory aspects and on-chain evidence, while previous SEC scrutiny regarding Solana suggests ongoing oversight interest.
