PumpFun, the prominent meme coin launch platform operating on the Solana blockchain, has rolled out an ambitious creator revenue-sharing program. In a move aimed at empowering creators, the platform will allocate 50% of its revenue to token creators. Each creator will earn a share of 0.05% (5 basis points) of every trade conducted on their tokens, paid out in SOL.
The announcement, shared via the official PumpFun X handle, has sparked a range of reactions within the crypto community. Some users have expressed enthusiasm about the potential for creators to gain more from their tokens, while others have raised concerns about the broader implications for traders and the platform’s ecosystem.
This revenue-sharing model applies to a wide array of tokens, including new creations, tokens still trading on PumpFun’s bonding curves, and those that have moved to PumpSwap — the decentralized exchange launched by PumpFun in March 2025. According to data from DefiLlama, PumpSwap currently accounts for 15% of PumpFun’s daily revenue, which stands at $2 million.
Since its inception in 2024, PumpFun has facilitated the creation of over 8.8 million tokens, as per Dune analytics. The new program aims to incentivize further innovation and reward creators for their contributions, thus strengthening the platform’s position in Solana’s growing decentralized finance (DeFi) sector.
While the initiative promises to make the platform more creator-friendly, the long-term impact remains unclear. The community has called for protective measures to ensure the program benefits both creators and traders, preserving the integrity and trust within the ecosystem.
