Launchpad

Launchpads are decentralized platforms that facilitate early-stage fundraising for new Web3 projects through Initial DEX Offerings (IDOs). They provide investors with curated access to token sales while offering startups a community-driven capital injection. In 2026, launchpads have evolved into full-stack incubators, focusing on project quality and long-term sustainability. Follow this tag for the latest in token distribution models, tier-based participation, and the emergence of the next generation of "unicorn" protocols across various blockchain ecosystems.

DOGE to Rally to $1.20, But the Best Meme Coin to Buy in 2025 Might Be this ETH Token

DOGE to Rally to $1.20, But the Best Meme Coin to Buy in 2025 Might Be this ETH Token

The post DOGE to Rally to $1.20, But the Best Meme Coin to Buy in 2025 Might Be this ETH Token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Dogecoin (DOGE) remains one of the most recognizable names in crypto. As the 2025 bull market intensifies, analysts believe DOGE could be gearing up for a serious rally, with price projections as high as $1.20. But while DOGE may finally deliver fresh gains for its community, new investors looking for massive multiples are already turning their attention to a much smaller, Ethereum based project, Little Pepe (LILPEPE), that may be the true meme coin star of this cycle. Dogecoin price prediction: A climb to $1.20 is on the horizon Through several market cycles, Dogecoin (DOGE) has demonstrated its ability to remain relevant. Though its branding is whimsical, DOGE has considerable liquidity, a market capitalization in the tens of billions, and support from Elon Musk, who often refers to it as the “people’s crypto.” Currently, DOGE trades around $0.2; a rally to $1.20 would represent a 6x move from these levels. With its long history of defying expectations and cultural resonance, many investors see this target as achievable and realistic within the 2025 bull market. Yet while a move to $1.20 would be monumental for a coin of Dogecoin’s size, the percentage gains are limited compared to the potential of smaller projects. This is where Little Pepe (LILPEPE) enters the picture. Little Pepe is building on Ethereum with a unique meme-focused Layer 2 Little Pepe (LILPEPE) is not just another meme coin; it is attempting to build an entire ecosystem. The project is creating a Layer 2 blockchain on Ethereum dedicated to meme tokens. It offers fast, cheap transactions, sniper bot protections, and a Meme Launchpad, enabling new projects to grow safely within its environment. This gives LILPEPE a fundamental distinction: while DOGE and SHIB are cultural tokens with little infrastructure behind them, LILPEPE merges meme energy with technical innovation. This…

Pump.fun’s New Fee Model Hands Out $2M to Creators in First 24 Hours

Pump.fun’s New Fee Model Hands Out $2M to Creators in First 24 Hours

The post Pump.fun’s New Fee Model Hands Out $2M to Creators in First 24 Hours appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In brief Pump.fun has introduced a dynamic fee model that looks to reward token creators on the platform. One Pump.fun livestreamer told Decrypt the move empowers small creators to make more money than on traditional platforms like Twitch. Over the past 24 hours following the update, $1.9 million was distributed to creators on the platform. Popular Solana token launchpad Pump.fun has revamped its fee model, which it claims will increase the earnings of creators on the platform tenfold.  Streamers on the platform believe it is a major step towards the platform rivalling established platforms like Twitch, as Pump.fun’s earnings for small creators look to outsize non-crypto livestreaming platforms. Over the past 24 hours following the update, $2 million was distributed to creators on the platform, according to Dune data. To put this into perspective, on Monday, just $198,000 was handed out to creators under the previous fee structure. Rasmr, one of the top streamers on Pump.fun, earned $2,290 via creator fees on Tuesday—up from $5.12 the day before. Project Ascend The boost in earnings comes as a result of Pump.fun’s new dynamic fee model, a part of a broader series of updates in what the platform brands as Project Ascend.  Upon every trade of a token, the creator of that token earns a percentage of the total fees. The new dynamic model shifts this creator fee percentage based on the total market cap of the creator’s token. Creators of tokens between a market cap of $88,000 and $300,000 will earn the largest percentage fee of 0.95% per trade, slowly scaling down to 0.05% at a $20 million market cap. However, it’s worth noting that once at such a market cap, the token is likely to have much higher trading volume than a smaller token. “Creator earnings over the last 24…

New Pump.Fun Fee Structure Pays Creators More Than Twitch, Generates $2.1M in 24 Hours

New Pump.Fun Fee Structure Pays Creators More Than Twitch, Generates $2.1M in 24 Hours

The new Pump.fun fee structure has generated over $2.1 million in earnings for creators on the platform in just 24 hours, with streamers on the popular Solana token launchpad now outearning creators on established platforms like Twitch. In particular, Pump.fun also provides better compensation for small creators compared to non-crypto livestreaming platforms. Data from Dune Analytics confirms that on Monday, 4,084 unique creator wallets claimed a total of $198,000 under the previous fee structure. New Pump.fun Fee Structure Sees 10X Surge in Daily Earnings of Platform Creators Between September 2 and today, exactly $2,138,357 was earned by 5,640 creators, with the top 25 creators earning between 91.9 SOL ($19,483) and 370.2 SOL ($78,482).Source: Dune This is more than 10X the previous earnings range before the fee restructuring. The boost in earnings results from Pump.fun’s new fee model, which is part of a new update branded as Project Ascend. On every trade of a token, the creator of that token earns a percentage of the total fees. The new dynamic model shifts the creator fee percentage based on the total market cap of the creator’s token. According to Pump.fun’s new fee model, creators of tokens with market caps between 420 SOL ($88,000) and 1,470 SOL ($300,000) will earn the largest percentage fee of 0.95% per trade, slowly scaling down to 0.05% at a $20 million market cap.Source: Pump.fun Adam Tech, creator of the Pump.fun creator revenue dashboard, shared how important incentivizing creators on memecoin launchpads like Pump.fun is. He asserts that NFTs died when fees went to zero and creators lost all incentives. “Memecoins are seeing the opposite trend.” According to him, 95% of memecoin trading now occurs on bonding curves, where fees exceed 1%. For example, fees on Pump.fun average 1.25%, the same as the rival Solana-based launchpad, BonkFun. Recall that Pump.fun began as a simple token creation platform in January 2024 and later became the foundation of the memecoin boom on Solana. As of December 2023, the total Solana memecoin market capitalization was roughly $1.2 billion, according to CoinGecko data.Source: CoinGecko Following the launch of Pump.fun in January, the Solana memecoin market cap rose to over $22 billion by December 2024 and is currently at $11.2 billion. Pump.fun’s major growth surge came with the introduction of built-in livestreaming capabilities, which followed the viral success of memecoins that gained popularity through streaming activities on outside platforms like Kick. However, after the launch of President Trump’s official memecoin on Solana, which many saw as the maximum extraction of liquidity from the memecoin space, most memecoins lost almost all their value. Pump.fun Reclaims Crown with $144.5M Trading Volume According to a June 2025 Cryptonews report, over 81% of all tokens launched through Pump.fun dropped by 90% or more from its all-time high (ATH). The entire memecoin space lost more than $30 billion in market value.Source: Cryptonews Most top memecoins, such as BONK, WIF, FARTCOIN, and POPCAT, lost more than 50% of their value afterward. However, the recent July-August market rally saw many recover to break even. After nearly a month of trailing behind, Pump.fun recently reclaimed its spot at the top of the Solana ecosystem, overtaking rival letsBONK.fun in key performance metrics. As of August 6, Pump.fun recorded over $144.5 million in graduation volume, far ahead of letsBONK.fun’s $34.6 million. Tokens from Pump.fun also posted $525 million in post-graduation trading volume, while tokens from letsBONK.fun recorded $305 million. Now that Pump.fun is topping the memecoin leaderboard and incentivizing creators, many PUMP token holders will be looking forward to the recovery of the platform token that launched in July and has since lost over 68% of its value

Pump.fun Creators Earn $2.1M After Fee Model Update

Pump.fun Creators Earn $2.1M After Fee Model Update

The post Pump.fun Creators Earn $2.1M After Fee Model Update appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Highlights Pump.fun creators earned $2.1M in fees within just 24 hours New Dynamic Fees V1 lowers commissions as capitalization rises Small streamers say they now earn more than on Twitch or Kick Pump.fun Creators Earn $2.1M in a Day With Project Ascend Memecoin creators on pump.fun earned more than $2.1 million in fees within 24 hours, fueled by the launch of Project Ascend, a new incentive model aiming to make the platform’s token economy more sustainable. Fees Surge Under Dynamic Fees V1 According to Dune Analytics, total commissions distributed to creators reached $3.26 million — a significant increase compared to the day before. The jump coincided with the rollout of Dynamic Fees V1, which lowers commission rates as project value grows. Source: Dune Analytics For example, projects with a capitalization between 420–1,470 SOL ($87,740–$307,080) face a 0.95% fee, while those with 88,400–93,330 SOL ($18.4–$19.5M) see fees drop to just 0.1%. The pump.fun team unveiled Project Ascend on September 2, describing it as a system designed to boost developer royalties by up to tenfold. The new model now applies across all projects on the platform. Driving Growth for New Creators While fees for the protocol and liquidity providers remain the same, every memecoin transaction now incorporates the new structure. Beyond pricing shifts, pump.fun says Project Ascend is meant to attract creators outside the traditional crypto scene. “This system makes it far more lucrative to launch memecoins here than on other platforms,” the pump.fun team said in a statement. “We expect to see streamers, startups, and independent creators treating pump.fun as a serious launchpad.” Streamer Jytol, an early user of pump.fun, also praised the impact: “The new model changes everything for small creators. I can build with just a small community and still earn more than what Twitch or Kick would…

Crypto needs more than launchpads for mass adoption

Crypto needs more than launchpads for mass adoption

The post Crypto needs more than launchpads for mass adoption appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. This is a segment from the Empire newsletter. To read full editions, subscribe. Last week, I wrote about the three killer-est apps of the cycle: Polymarket, Hyperliquid, pump.fun. Notice that none of them is on Base. Base has now had two shots at facilitating a potential killer crypto app already this cycle: AI agent launchpad Virtuals Protocol, the “Wall Street for AI Agents,” and now social media platform Zora, with the latter seeing two decent runs in the past 18 months. Between December 2024 and January 2025 — peak Truth Terminal hype — Virtuals generated almost $11 million in net revenue, according to Blockworks Research data, during which time more than 13,000 different AI agents were tokenized.  Last month: $105,000 revenue; 151 agents launched, even after Virtuals expanded beyond Base to Solana earlier this year. Zora, which supports creator coins and turns every post into a tradable coin, has otherwise arrived at a key inflection point.  On one hand, August was a record month for Zora protocol revenue, reaching $1.3 million, and number of posts, with 1.1 million pieces of content tokenized. But on the weekly scale, revenue has fallen by more than half and stayed there for the past fortnight running, with only $20,000 per day a regular occurrence right now. The total number of posting accounts has also dropped to about 8,000 per day, down 60% from an August 14 peak of 21,000. Of course, it’s too early to call time on Zora, and maybe these ups and downs will become mere blips on the path to mass adoption by content creators and consumers. It’s more likely that both Zora and Virtuals have simply run headfirst into the same wall: There’s just not enough people in crypto who want to do more than trade on exchanges to consistently…

Pump.fun Unveils Project Ascend but Can It Fix Solana’s Meme Coin Problem?

Pump.fun Unveils Project Ascend but Can It Fix Solana’s Meme Coin Problem?

The Solana meme coin launchpad Pump.fun has introduced “Project Ascend,” a major upgrade aimed at reshaping its ecosystem and tackling one of the most persistent challenges in the crypto sector: sustainable growth for token creators.  The announcement boosted Pump.fun’s native token PUMP by more than 10 percent, showing strong market confidence in the platform’s new direction. Fee Reform as the Core of Project Ascend At the core of Project Ascend lies Dynamic Fees V1, a tiered system that reduces creator fees as a token’s market capitalization increases. By moving away from fixed rates, the Solana meme coin launchpad aims to make new launches more attractive while discouraging high-risk, short-lived projects.  Source: X Addressing Past Weaknesses in Creator Support Pump.fun has acknowledged that its earlier Creator Fees model failed to address the financial needs of long-term development. Many projects struggled with marketing costs, exchange listings, and expansion strategies.  With Project Ascend, the Solana meme coin launchpad is trying to fill this gap by providing creators with a more sustainable financial framework that encourages persistence and growth. Also read: Pump.fun Strikes Back: New $PUMP Rewards Could Revive Token Price Dynamic Fees V1: A New Model for Builders Dynamic Fees V1 applies exclusively to PumpSwap tokens. The system reduces fees for creators as their token grows in value, easing the burden on successful projects while keeping incentives high for newcomers. According to Pump.fun, this structure makes launching new coins “ten times more rewarding,” giving startups, streamers, and independent developers a stronger reason to participate in the Solana meme coin launchpad ecosystem. Strategic Growth Through Acquisitions and Token Sales Project Ascend is part of a broader expansion strategy. In July, Pump.fun acquired Kolscan, a wallet-tracking tool designed to enhance social trading and provide advanced analytics. Shortly afterwards, the Solana meme coin launchpad launched a public token sale seeking to raise up to $600 million, representing 15% of its total supply.  Source: X Pump.fun reported more than 58 million dollars in token buybacks, offsetting over 4% of the circulating supply. To further encourage growth, the Solana meme coin launchpad launched the Glass Full Foundation, a liquidity fund dedicated to supporting promising community projects.  Announced in August, the fund has already backed several tokens, showing a direct effort to support organic development within the ecosystem. Competitive Edge in Solana’s Meme Market Competition among Solana platforms has intensified. In July, rival LetsBonk.fun briefly overtook Pump.fun in daily volumes and revenue. However, by early August, the Solana meme coin launchpad regained dominance.  Data shows Pump.fun earning $1.13 million in daily revenue compared to BonkFun’s 381,000. In terms of token creation, Pump.fun minted more than 16,000 tokens in a single day, significantly outpacing its competitors. Source: Dune Project Ascend comes during a broader decline in Solana’s decentralized exchange activity. Daily active traders dropped from 4.8 million earlier this year to under one million in August.  Transaction volumes also declined sharply. Against this backdrop, the Solana meme coin launchpad is positioning itself as a stabilizing force, aiming to maintain engagement through innovation and transparency. Challenges That Still Remain Despite the improvements, critics caution that structural reforms alone may not stop rug pulls or failed launches. Graduation rates of tokens remain below one percent, reflecting the high churn across platforms. The Solana meme coin launchpad will need to prove that Project Ascend can translate incentive reforms into meaningful long-term value. Conclusion Pump.fun is reshaping the way creators approach token launches by combining flexible fee structures, ecosystem funding, and social trading features. The Solana meme coin launchpad now faces the critical test of converting short-term hype into sustainable growth for projects that can endure market cycles. Also read: Pump.fun Dominates Solana Meme Coin Market With $781M Trading Volume Summary  Pump.fun, a leading Solana meme coin launchpad, has launched Project Ascend—an ecosystem upgrade featuring Dynamic Fees V1 to support sustainable token creation. The update includes fee reform, liquidity funds, and social analytics tools aimed at reducing high-risk launches.    With over $58 million in buybacks and continued dominance over rivals like LetsBonk.fun, Pump.fun positions itself as a central force in Solana’s evolving meme coin market, despite broader declines in trading activity and ongoing challenges like rug pulls and token churn.

3 Other Coins Predicted to Rally 1500% Before Bitcoin’s Cycle Peak in 2026

3 Other Coins Predicted to Rally 1500% Before Bitcoin’s Cycle Peak in 2026

The post 3 Other Coins Predicted to Rally 1500% Before Bitcoin’s Cycle Peak in 2026 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. SPONSORED POST* Cardano (ADA) has long been a favourite among investors who believe in strong fundamentals and long-term scalability. Nevertheless, as markets prepare to enter the next halving cycle of Bitcoin and a possible peak in the year 2026, there is speculation that a new era of alternative cryptocurrencies should bring as much growth as Bitcoin has shown to date, and even more. Among all these, Little Pepe (LILPEPE), Solana (SOL), and Injective (INJ) are gaining significant interest because of their new ecosystem functions and surging growth. Little Pepe (LILPEPE): The Meme-Fueled Layer 2 Revolution Little Pepe (LILPEPE) is more than just another meme coin. It is the native utility token of the Little Pepe ecosystem, which operates as a next-generation Layer 2 blockchain designed exclusively for meme culture. Built with ultra-low fees, warp-speed security, and rapid finality, the network positions itself as the world’s first meme-only blockchain. Unlike other projects that merely scale Ethereum, Little Pepe could redefine meme tokens by giving them a dedicated infrastructure. The presale performance underscores its momentum. As of Stage 12, LILPEPE is priced at $0.002, with over $22.4 million raised out of a $25.4 million target. More than 14.2 billion tokens have already been sold from the planned allocation, signalling significant retail and community confidence. At listing, tokens are expected to debut at $0.003, reflecting steady growth potential for early adopters. Tokenomics reveal a structured approach to sustainability. Application of 10% of the supply is dedicated to liquidity so that the exchange can run properly, 26.5% to presale, and 13.5% to staking and rewards to holders in the long term. The remaining 10% t goes to marketing, campaign maintenance and support, influencer networks, and community relationships. Perhaps most notable, the project imposes 0% transaction tax, reinforcing its ethos of financial freedom. The roadmap…
