Pump.fun, a token launch platform on Solana, is becoming a new generation livestreaming service with extremely 'quirky' and engaging content, competing with giants like Twitch and YouTube. The platform is currently sponsoring streamers and paying viewers to post viral clips on social media, encouraging the creativity of meme coin creators.
Madness is increasing on Pump.fun
This week, the 'madness' on Pump.fun seems to be escalating with three standout livestreams:
Wedding on the Waves: A 60-year-old man named Glen announced he will marry his 34-year partner, Karen, on a Pump.fun livestream this Saturday. The couple shared that they could not afford a real wedding and the Pump.fun community helped them make it happen. Glen's token, Pumps Gone Crazy (PGC), once reached a market cap of $1.15 million but has now dropped to $518,000.
Saying "Pumpfun" a million times: A man in Kyiv, Ukraine, is trying to say the word "Pump.fun" a million times on livestream. Ricken (a shortened name) believes in the future of Pump.fun and thinks it's a funny idea. He has been spending 14-16 hours a day saying this word and expects to complete the goal by Friday morning, July 4th. His token, 1MIL, peaked at a market cap of $1.43 million but is now down to $330,000.
The House of 'Brothers': Anonymous cryptocurrency influencer SolJakey is hosting a 'house' of emerging influencers, each with their own meme coin. This is a reality show combined with crypto, where influencers compete to have the most valuable meme coin. This house has created many viral clips, including funny challenges and public skits. SolJakey believes Basedd House shows the evolution of Pump.fun and the idea of a 'creative capital market', where influencers can monetize their tokens without having to sell tokens to their fans.
The Future of #livestream Meme Coin and Pump.fun
Livestreams on Pump.fun are becoming more professional, with many streamers expressing gratitude for the creator revenue-sharing feature, which has helped them realize their plans. In some cases, the Pump.fun platform itself directly supports projects. This shows that Pump.fun is not just a token launchpad but is also evolving into a unique livestreaming platform where creativity and community interaction are strongly encouraged through cryptocurrency mechanisms.
