  • Pump.fun reaches $100 million in sales.
  • Critics charge that the platform has high fees and huge losses.
  • Pump.fun makes launching tokens easier than ever.

The Mimecoin craze has captured retail investors, luring them with the promise of quick profits. However, the reality for most investors is far from what they had hoped for. Most Mimecoins collapse in a short period of time, leaving retail investors with losses.

One of the platforms that makes money with Mimecoin is Pump.fun, which made $100 million in record time. However, it has been met with criticism, with many accusing the company of profiting from small investors.

Pump.fun faces huge criticism for ‘investor fraud’

The impressive growth figures of the Memecoin platform Pump.fun have been met with controversy. On Monday, September 2, the Syncracy Capital hedge fund said that Pump.fun was the fastest-growing cryptocurrency application of all time. In just 217 days since its launch, Pump.fun has generated a whopping $100 million in revenue. However, this has led to criticism.

Pumpdotfun is the fastest growing application in terms of revenue in the history of the cryptocurrency economy, reaching $100 million in revenue in just 217 days.

Pump.fun has achieved this revenue growth by making token launches easier than ever. In addition, it charges the highest fees among decentralized exchanges (DEX). It is worth noting that the main source of revenue is the 1% fee on every trade. This is important because it allows the platform to generate revenue whether the project goes up or down. This is important because the projects on the platform only have 1.4%.

This led critics to call Pump.fun a “scam factory” and a “Trojan horse for scammers.” Crypto founder Robby Greenfield claimed that Pump.fun’s $100 million milestone was achieved “by selling pumps and dumps in a speculative market that was completely falling apart.”

Are you celebrating the $100 million you pulled from your users and passed onto the team via Rug Mania? 🤦‍♂️

How about celebrating the person who returned $100 million in revenue to their product users the fastest? https://t.co/SxNC1mr2mu

Other community members have likened the platform to a casino, arguing that the model is unsustainable and ultimately detrimental to the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem.

Pump.fun Memecoins See Dismal Results

While Pump.fun has undoubtedly streamlined the token issuance process, this has not led to better results for investors. For example, most of the celebrity memecoins launched on the platform have performed poorly. Tokens like Caitlyn Jenner and Iggy Azalea have seen an average drop of 94%.

Other Solana Mimecoins have faced similar issues. In March, crypto researcher ZachXBT released a list of Mimecoins that blew the audience away. In response, Solana founder Anatoly Yakovenko urged the community not to invest in new Mimecoins. Instead, he suggested projects with strong technology.

Despite the risks, investing in memecoins is much more accessible to the general public than investing in technology. With platforms like Pump.fun promoting this trend, it is unlikely to stop anytime soon.

On the other side

  • The proliferation of Mimecoins has raised concerns about the integrity of the Solana network, causing developers and investors to be more cautious.
  • Pump.fun also faces increasing competition from similar projects. Tron and polygon.

Why this matters

The backlash against Pump.fun highlights the problems with platforms that make money through questionable trading practices. It also highlights the risks of trading Mimecoin in general.
