Since the beginning of 2025, Pump.fun has conducted significant SOL transfers to the crypto exchange Kraken. The total transfer amount has reached $340 million, suggesting a potential sell-off.
Major Transfers to Kraken
On January 7, Pump.fun transferred another 98,593 SOL worth $20.49 million to Kraken. Cumulatively, the platform has moved over 1,662,648 SOL, equivalent to about $340 million.
Market Positions and Ecosystem Role
Despite these large transfers, Pump.fun remains a leader in the Solana ecosystem, accounting for over 70% of all token launches and facilitating 56% of decentralized exchange trading on Solana in 2025.
UK Issues and Possible Transfer Reasons
Analysts believe the platform may be preparing for a sell-off. Additionally, Pump.fun faced troubles in the UK following an FCA warning about potential violations. As a result, the service blocked UK users.
Pump.fun’s movements may indicate significant shifts in its strategy. Investors continue to monitor developments to assess possible market implications.
