Pump.fun’s Massive Buyback Strategy
The PUMP buyback strategy has been pushing the altcoin’s rally. The numbers have already crossed the $150 million mark within just three months.
The platform has bought back roughly 9.6% of its total token supply, making it one of the most heavily supported assets in the Solana SOL $200.7 24h volatility: 0.8% Market cap: $110.24 B Vol. 24h: $6.91 B ecosystem. This places it second only to Raydium RAY $1.87 24h volatility: 1.0% Market cap: $501.35 M Vol. 24h: $35.69 M , whose lifetime buybacks exceed $200 million.
With over $818 million in cumulative revenue and daily earnings averaging nearly $1 million, the platform is reinvesting its profits directly into ecosystem growth, including the acquisition of Padre, a multichain trading terminal.
"the $PADRE token will no longer have utility on the platform with no further plans for the future."
And Padre team banning the word "token" in discord, removing user chats mentioning the $PADRE token, and kicking out users. Nicely done…

Market Dominance and Ecosystem Expansion
Pump.fun has made several additions to its ecosystem recently, including the launch of PumpSwap, Pump Screener, and the Padre acquisition. The platform currently accounts for nearly all token graduations on Solana, dominating the meme coin ecosystem.

Interestingly, the meme coin generator lost its dominance after briefly losing ground to Four.meme during the Binance Smart Chain meme coin boom.
With Padre now integrated, Pump.fun has reclaimed the top spot in both revenue and user engagement.
