Current state of Meme platforms
Since its launch on the Solana chain in January 2024, the PumpFun platform has quickly attracted the attention of many users and investors with its convenient meme coin issuance and trading mechanisms. However, recent data indicates that the platform is facing a downward trend. According to reports from DL News, the daily active users of PumpFun peaked at 261,000 on November 29, but fell to 161,000 by mid-December, a decline of 38%. Additionally, the number of meme coins generated daily on the platform decreased from 69,000 on November 20 to 33,000, a reduction of over 50%. After PumpFun shut down its live streaming for a week, weekly revenue plummeted by 66%, from $33.8 million from November 18 to November 24 to $11.3 million in the last week of November.
Currently, PumpFun can no longer dominate the Meme Launchpad field. According to RootData and ChainCatcher's compilation, there have been more than 10 new Meme Launchpads or projects with Meme Launchpad functions that have emerged since 2024, supporting various public chains, with the most supporting Base and Solana's Meme Launchpad projects.
In the context of fierce market competition, a platform that merely imitates the PumpFun model clearly struggles to carve out its share. The market no longer needs a small PumpFun; instead, it requires a new platform that can bring novelty and ignite sparks in the attention economy. MoonPump may be the product currently best fitting this positioning, as it not only realizes all functions of PumpFun, including live streaming, but also brings new narratives for Meme players.
The 'new narrative' brought by MoonPump
While being compatible with traditional Meme platform functions, the 'new narrative' brought by MoonPump is reflected in its introduction of AI Agent technology for real-time intelligent analysis of trending topics, discussion trends, and user sentiments on social media, significantly simplifying the Launch process and maximizing user stickiness.
MoonPump promotes the issuance and socialization of Memecoins through the following three convenient methods:
1. Social media comments for token issuance
Users can automatically trigger the token issuance process by posting comments on popular social media posts and tagging @MoonPump. This model, characterized by its low entry barrier and high efficiency, reduces technical barriers, allowing every user to easily participate in the creation and dissemination of Memecoins.
2. Plugin token issuance
With the help of intuitive and easy-to-use plugin tools, users can create and publish Memecoins without a technical background. This tool-based operation greatly reduces time and technical costs, providing creators and investors with a convenient channel for token issuance.
3. Social trading experience
The platform innovatively integrates social media and trading functions, allowing users to trade and promote Memecoins directly within active communities. Through the viral effect of social networks, the promotion of Memecoins becomes more efficient, creating new opportunities for the expansion of the token market.
The MoonPump platform simplifies the issuance and dissemination process of Memecoins, allowing Meme tokens to integrate more smoothly into social processes. Its social trading model and real-time responsive technical capabilities provide significant support for community building and market expansion. At the same time, the platform's user reward mechanism not only enhances user stickiness but also further expands the social influence and market potential of Memecoins.
Why does such a narrative work?
To answer this question, we might as well look at the successful experiences of other projects. In the Base ecosystem, Clanker achieved significant growth and influence through its innovative social mechanism, providing important reference for MoonPump.
Clanker is primarily used for the automated deployment of tokens on the Base network, with its Meme issuance conducted on the Web3 social platform Farcaster. Users only need to tag @clanker and describe the name, content, or even images of the token they wish to issue, and Clanker will automatically deploy the token (while MoonPump can realize systematic functions within the Solana ecosystem). Among them, the token LUM deployed by Clanker is a classic example. The birth of LUM was a collaborative issuance between two AI agents, aethernet and clanker. A Farcaster user named naaate asked the AI agent aethernet of the Higher community to issue a token for him, and aethernet, as an AI, let another AI—clanker issue the token. According to Dune data, in just two weeks in November, Clanker issued 3,500 tokens, generating $4.2 million in revenue.
As a high-performance public chain, Solana attracts a large number of developers and users with its fast transaction speed and low costs. The product design of MoonPump is highly compatible with the characteristics of the Solana ecosystem: first, Solana's high performance supports MoonPump's real-time data analysis and interactive response, further amplifying the advantages of platform functions in user experience. Secondly, Solana has an active and diverse user base, providing good user growth potential for MoonPump. By integrating NFT projects and social communities in the Solana ecosystem, MoonPump can quickly build its user network.
Additionally, the social platform @token issuance function of MoonPump is conducted on the X platform. According to Dune data, as of May this year, the total user count of Farcaster exceeded 340,000, which is an impressive number in the SocialFi space, but it cannot be compared to the vast user base of the X platform. According to Statista, as of the first quarter of 2024, the global monthly active users of the X platform are approximately 350 million. This figure is far higher than Farcaster's user scale. Given the X platform's massive user base, MoonPump's launch of automated token deployment features on this platform can reach more potential users and enhance its chances of success. Furthermore, the X platform's extensive influence and mature social ecosystem also help accelerate MoonPump's user growth and market penetration.
Clanker's success in the Base ecosystem proves the feasibility of the 'technology + social interaction' model, and MoonPump, with its AI technology and diversified incentive mechanisms, is expected to achieve similar breakthroughs in the Solana ecosystem. By integrating the technological advantages and user base of the Solana ecosystem, MoonPump can not only promote further development of the Memecoin market but also become a model project for innovation and value creation within the Solana ecosystem.
