Pump.fun revenue-sharing model goes live, ushering in a new era of meme coins

Pump.fun has done what nobody ever thought it would and announced the launch of revenue sharing for coin creators.

The crypto market is in a constant state of evolution, and recently, we've witnessed a move that might fundamentally alter the fabric of meme coins. Pump.fun, the massively profitable Solana aggregator, has finally launched revenue sharing for coin creators. This shift in the economics of meme coin creation has occurred rapidly and nearly silently, turning the structural incentives of on-chain speculation upside down.

The implications are huge. Meme coins are growing up and becoming economic engines, and with this shift, there comes opportunity for a new tier of tokens.

50% of PumpSwap Revenue will be shared with Coin Creators.

Pump.fun’s revenue-sharing model goes live

Pump.fun provided a masterclass in product market fit this cycle, and while it has plenty of critics, the simple fact remains that it rapidly became the most profitable crypto application. But one criticism did sour investor sentiment: pump.fun was making money hand over fist, and coin creators got nothing—hence the massive rise in insider trading to profit from token launches.

Now, incentives have been flipped, and pump.fun has launched revenue sharing and perpetual creator payouts. Economic alignment is baked into the foundation of token trading, and now memes are micro-economies. Token creation has become a viable business model where devs can monetize attention, and this moment marks the beginning of the next phase in the meme meta.

Platforms that allow users to profit based on economic activity should enter a period of hyper-growth in the coming weeks, and this is the beginning of structured speculation. Memes that launch with rails, distribution, and inventive alignment have nearly unlimited upside, and investors need to be paying attention today.

Bitcoin Pepe: Bitcoin’s newest meme playground

Bitcoin Pepe is opening the floodgates to a new era of crypto. As the first meme-centric Layer 2 built on Bitcoin, Bitcoin Pepe is the missing link between crypto’s two most dominant forces: the institutional weight of BTC and the memetic force of meme coins.

Memes are crypto’s most successful onboarding tool. Now, these assets will make their home in Bitcoin, settling on the most secure blockchain. Bitcoin Pepe is a look into the future of hyper-Bitcoinization and brings Solana-style speed and usability to BTC for the first time. Hailed for building ‘Solana on Bitcoin,’ BPEP is the perfect fusion of “boomer security and zoomer energy.” And the world’s most conservative asset is about to become a retail playground.

What makes Bitcoin Pepe different is that it is turning the Bitcoin network into a living, breathing meme economy. Its custom-built PEP-20 token standard allows anyone to mint meme coins directly on Bitcoin. And this could be the beginning of a Cambrian explosion of assets on BTC, with all demand filtering through into the BPEP price and valuation.

Bitcoin has already crossed $100K. ETFs are soaking up supply. But retail doesn’t want to buy a $100K asset—it wants massive upside and narrative. Bitcoin Pepe is where that demand flows. Launching on May 31st and already raising $8.3m in its presale, the writing is on the wall. Since announcing a tier 1 listing post-launch, an additional million dollars has been raised, and there is no stopping BPEP’s momentum.The current price of $0.0326 makes BPEP arguably the best crypto to buy now, and with the narrative shifting to meme coin infrastructure ownership, it is hard to find a competitor with similar upside. Still in its presale, investors are early to this trade, and the May 31st launch will be the narrative ignition point.

Popcat: Pure meme play

Another token to watch is Popcat. A cult classic, Popcat has recently broken key resistance levels in a renewed surge back toward all-time highs. Despite being a pure meme play, Popcat has survived the test of time and has continued to thrive. And it looks to be an obvious beneficiary of the rotation back into memes and meme coin infrastructure.

Now that pump.fun revenue sharing model has gone live, tokens like Popcat that are deeply embedded in the psyche of all of Solana’s retail traders are obvious contenders for a comeback.

LaunchCoin: Betting on the creator economy

Among the new projects rapidly gaining attention is LaunchCoin. Launching on the ecosystem of the large-cap token, Dump, the project is becoming the de facto launchpad for Web2 founders who want to fundraise in crypto. The Believe platform is rethinking token creation, allowing creators to launch tokens by posting on X. More than 10,000 tokens have launched since the platform’s inception, and LaunchCoin is a bet on the future of tokenization.

It is onboarding traditional devs into the crypto space faster than any other project and perfectly fits into the
