*Pump.fun Revamps Creator Fee Model to Encourage Higher-Risk Trading*
In a significant move, Pump.fun has announced plans to overhaul its current creator fee system. According to co-founder Alon Cohen, the platform's existing model may have unintentionally encouraged creators to focus on low-risk token creation rather than engaging in the more volatile, high-risk trading activities that drive market energy and innovation.
This shift in strategy is aimed at realigning incentives to support a healthier and more dynamic trading environment. By revising the way fees are structured, Pump.fun seeks to spark greater engagement, risk-taking, and value generation within its ecosystem — especially in a landscape where memecoins and experimental tokens are gaining traction.
The update highlights the platform’s commitment to evolving alongside the market’s needs and ensuring that both creators and traders are rewarded fairly. It’s a step toward fostering creativity, volatility, and better trading flow across Web3. More details are expected soon as implementation progresses.
