Pump.fun (PUMP) Price, Charts & Market Data

PUMP is the protocol’s native token, introduced post the initial platform launch. It serves internal utility functions:

• Incentive Distribution Used to reward users for actions such as livestream participation, community contributions, creator promotions, and staking within designated pools. The token is allocated over time through on-chain mechanisms tied to platform events and campaigns.

• Governance Participation Designed to provide token holders with voting rights on decisions like fee structures, bonding-curve parameters, or new feature rollouts. Governance is built on forward-looking on-chain proposal and voting modules, though functionality remains subject to ongoing development.

• Ecosystem Enablement PUMP supports future initiatives such as feature rollout prioritisation, partnership engagements, and platform-wide reward campaigns. Its role is to align incentives and governance within the Pump.fun system.

Participation in the token launch process or trading on Pump.fun requires no holding or burning of PUMP; token creation and trading remain permissionless.
