Written by: shaofaye123, Foresight News
Pump.fun's revenue has repeatedly hit new highs, sweeping the total income of 24 protocols; just the Sol sold in the past few months has already exceeded the annual budget of the Ethereum Foundation. The popularity of major platforms remains high, and clones across chains are emerging, with discussions about Pump.fun never ceasing. When will tokens be issued? Will there be airdrops? Let's hear what the team has to say â
What is SPACE discussing?
On October 20, Pump.fun held a new session of X Space live, attracting 11K listeners. During the Space, Pump.fun announced significant upgrades to the product, discussing not only the newly launched feature Pump.fun advanced but also addressing user concerns regarding airdrops.

Is the airdrop really coming?
During Space, Pump.fun co-founder Sapijiju hinted at future token and airdrop plans, although no official timeline has been confirmed yet.
He said in response to the airdrop question:
ăWe do plan to launch a token at some point in the future. I won't say when, but everything will be fine. Our airdrop, no guarantees here, may be more lucrative than any project in this field.ă
ăSo, and another thing I do want to confirm, like we are definitely planning on launching a token at some point in the future. Again, like not going to say when, how it done, whatever that maybe that's, that's all to come. But again, like obviously our goal is to make our users rewarded and to some extent. And yeah, again, like I think our airdrop will probably no guarantees here, but will probably be quite a lot more lucrative than anyone else at the moment in the space, I would say.ă
Moreover, during Space, the co-founder hinted that future airdrops might only be for users who have used Pump.fun advanced. Given the zero fees offered to users in the first 30 days, there seems to be ambition to capture the Bullx and Photon markets.
Airdrop strategy
A good project does not necessarily have a good token price. How specific tokens will empower, and how TGE will be designed, has not yet been announced; it seems Pump.fun still has some time before issuing tokens. However, Memecoins on Solana have already seen volume-flooding bots, with a trading volume of 0.000026 Sol. After all, the most profitable protocol in Web 3 is about to issue tokens, and this airdrop seems worth participating in.
Before eagerly participating in airdrops, it is essential to devise a strategy and understand the participation costs. Generally, airdrops reward active real users and participants who have made clear contributions to community and product development. You can attempt to obtain airdrops with boutique accounts and bulk small accounts. For example: robots can quickly buy and sell at opening; use smaller amounts on targets with a market cap around 5M; or approach from a Dev perspective by creating a Memecoin that can be successfully launched.
What is Pump.fun advanced?
Additionally, discussions around Pump.fun advanced also took place during Space.
Pump.fun advanced is the latest trading terminal launched by Pump, designed to compete with established tools like Photon and Bull X. The Pump Advanced terminal is optimized for platform users, integrating features such as charts, Top holder statistics, advanced filters, and real-time update threads. Additionally, Pump.fun allows users to log in via email using a non-custodial wallet through the authentication platform Privy, charging 0% fees for the first 30 days.
Currently, the team's focus on functionality construction in Pump.fun advanced is on convenience, speed, and security. Its features for professional traders are still relatively few, with functionalities such as DCA and anti-squeeze still under continuous development.
Trading platform? or social platform?
We have been contemplating whether to create a 90% financial platform and a 10% social platform, or a 90% social platform and a 10% trading platform? How can we help ourselves grow and quickly become the largest platform?
The future product positioning of Pump.fun was deeply explored in Space, discussing whether to build a social or financial empire, with the team reflecting on both aspects. On one hand, team members hope to combine social elements with high spending and active users on the platform to create more interesting products, planning to focus on social elements as a key feature for the next stage. On the other hand, the team also aims to better meet the needs of professional trading audiences and users, thus launching Pump.fun advanced.
Whether it's a financial empire or a social network, from the snippets of Space, it is evident that Pump.fun does not want to limit its product positioning to just a Memecoin issuance platform. The commercial empire built on Memecoin, how it develops in the future, is worth looking forward to.
