Pump.fun’s Revenue Explodes by Nearly 700% in a Record-Breaking $13.5M Week
Solana’s leading Meme Coin launchpad, Pump.fun, has achieved a dramatic comeback, posting one of its strongest weeks in 2025 and reclaiming dominance in the highly competitive Meme Coin market. According to data from Defillama, Pump.fun generated sales of $13.48 million between August 11 and 17, marking its best weekly performance since February.
The increase corresponds to a surge of almost 700% compared to $1.72 million in the first week of August, when the platform reached its lowest level of sales since March 2024. This remarkable comeback comes as the wider Meme Coin sector itself has experienced a sharp swing, with market capitalization dropping by $16 billion in early August before partially recovering.
Pump.fun Regains Dominance in Solana Meme Coin Market
Pump.fun’s resurgence is particularly notable after it was overtaken by competitor Launchpad Letsbonk in Solana in July. For almost a month, Letsbonk.fun led in daily trading volume and sales, disrupting Pump.fun’s dominance in the ecosystem. However, this streak was broken in early August when Pump.fun overtook its competitor in all key metrics, including token sales.
On August 6, Pump.fun alone processed a final volume of $144.5 million and $525 million in trade activities. The daily data continues to underline the new dynamics of the platform. In a single 24-hour period this week, Pump.fun saw over 124,000 active addresses, outshining its competitors and confirming its status as the primary launchpad for retailers and creators in the Solana Meme Coin scene.
