The Meme Coin King is Back: Pump.fun Regains Crown from Rival Platform

Markets 2025-10-23 10:20

In a dramatic reversal of fortunes, meme coin launchpad Pump.fun has decisively reclaimed its dominance from rival Four.meme, now commanding a staggering 95% of the market. This resurgence solidifies its position as the go-to platform for meme coin creation, even as the broader launchpad market contracts.


According to data from Bitjie, Pump.fun is currently generating approximately $1 million in daily revenue from token launches. This achievement is particularly notable as the total daily trading volume across the entire launchpad market has shrunk to around $100 million. A key metric of success, “Token graduation”, where a token gains enough liquidity to trade on a major DEX like Raydium, further highlights Pump.fun’s lead, with over 170 graduations in 24 hours, leaving other platforms’ activity in the dust.

The Battle for Meme Coin Supremacy

The current landscape marks a significant shift from early October when BNB Chain-based Four.meme briefly surpassed Pump.fun. At its peak on October 8th, Four.meme raked in $4.1 million in daily revenue, while Pump.fun slumped to a two-month low of around $900,000.

Four.meme’s rapid ascent was fueled by a temporary frenzy triggered by comments from former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) about a “meme coin season.” However, this momentum proved unsustainable, lacking a solid foundation to maintain user interest once the initial hype subsided.

Industry analysts point to a broader slowdown in speculative activity across the crypto market as a major factor in this power shift. As the market cooled, users began prioritizing stability and reliability over novelty.

Stability as the Deciding Factor

Pump.fun’s strength lies in its mature and integrated ecosystem. Built on the Solana blockchain, it offers seamless integration with established trading infrastructure like Raydium and Meteora, providing users with a stable and predictable token launch mechanism.

Furthermore, recent technical improvements on the Solana network itself, including enhanced transaction processing capabilities and a lower token creation failure rate, have boosted the platform’s overall reliability. This established infrastructure provided a stark contrast to new entrants like Four.meme, which lacked a deeply loyal user base.

The data tells a clear story: with only about 100 tokens launched daily across all platforms, the vast majority now occur on Pump.fun. This concentration indicates that developers and traders are flocking to the platform with the highest perceived chance of success and deepest liquidity.

Despite Pump.fun’s commanding lead, experts warn the launchpad market remains highly volatile. User interest could rapidly shift again based on new feature releases or a sudden change in overall market sentiment.
