- TRON’s New Meme Coin Launch Platform Offers One-Click Token Launch
- The unprecedented bonding curve mechanism eliminates the need for pre-sales.
- The first day of operation of the Sun Pump is marked by imitation and parody coins.
The meme coin boom of 2024 has been a major catalyst for several blockchains to come to prominence. Initially led by Solana (SOL) heavyweights like BONK and WIF, new blockchains like TON Network and Base Layer-1 have provided a variety of meme coins that have driven up demand for their parent chains.
Tron (TRX), one of the oldest alternative blockchains to Bitcoin (BTC), is getting a dedicated platform to issue meme currencies on its Layer 1 network, and following in the footsteps of Solana’s (SOL) pump.fun, SunPump is providing a dedicated platform for cryptocurrency enthusiasts looking to launch their own coins.
A Shiny New Platform for Meme Coins
Tron’s SunPump platform is based on a mechanism that streamlines token launches and trading, and allows for easy exploration of other projects on the platform. To begin their personalized meme coin journey, participants can choose what they want on SunPump and purchase their preferred tokens on the new Bonding Curve mechanism.
Following the news of a new meme coin launch platform, the Tron Live community was excited to announce a discussion forum on TRON DAO, which included a series of frequently asked questions (FAQs). Among the first questions were the fees required to launch a meme coin on TRON (TRX) and the calculation of SunPump’s transaction fees.
According to the FAQ about TRON DAO, users will have to pay a creation fee of 20 TRX and a 1% fee for every transaction. At the time of writing, the creation fee is only $2.53, but Bonding Curve is capped at a potential coin value of $69,420. Once this threshold is reached, the seeding process will begin.
The official SunPump team will contribute approximately $12,000 worth of TRX tokens to support liquidity, which will be transferred to SunSwap V2 and burned on-chain. This deflationary approach theoretically eliminates the need for coin pre-sales and team allocations. Market participants can still sell their preferred tokens before the bonding curve is completed.
Justin Sun Declares Meme Season
Justin Sun, founder of the TRON blockchain and renowned cryptocurrency entrepreneur, proudly spent time at X to commemorate the milestone of the new platform’s launch. “The sun shines during the winter season. Sun retweeted the official message from SUN.io, saying:
SunPump’s homepage is filled with animal-themed memes and parody coins from day one. There have been attempts to copy popular meme coins like Cat in A Dog’s World (MEW) and Bonk Coin (BONK), but the only coin that has stood out in terms of success so far is the Sun-themed parody coin Jastin San ($SAN).
Parody Coin has surged 296% to reach a market cap of $16,460. In line with the bonding curve mechanism, Sun’s Parody Coin is now 66% away from reaching the $69,420,000 limit, at which point a significant amount of tokens will be burned on the SunSwap protocol.
On the other side
- Because meme coins can be created with just one click and without any advanced coding knowledge, the price of meme coins tends to be very volatile, which increases the risk of mistakes.
- Rugpools are still common in the meme coin space. DailyCoin recommends traders look for red flags such as plagiarism, complete team anonymity, or poor execution of the project’s roadmap.
Why this matters
The fact that so many chains are jumping in to meet the growing demand shows how important meme coins are to the growth of the cryptocurrency space.
