#pumpfun has been emptying the vault again. Over the past seven hours alone, another $148.48M in stablecoins has been sent straight into Kraken.
Zoom out and the scale gets wild. Since October 15, Pumpfun has deposited a total of $844.8M in stablecoins into Kraken. Nearly a billion dollars… in under three months.
And here’s the part most people miss. Over that same window, 1.35B USDC has flowed from Kraken to Circle, routed through the wallet DTQK7GVk1MCSsLroZE3dbcj4htbLjqajE3XwzYQeJrah. It’s like watching a financial conveyor belt memes in, stables out, stables up the ladder, back to the issuer.
What looks like chaos on the surface is actually a machine underneath.
The meme casino never really closes. It just… cashes out.

The story of $BRETT is legendary: early buyers on Pump.fun saw life-changing multipliers long before it hit centralized exchanges like Binance. This is the pre-launch market.
• The Arena: Platforms like Pump.fun and Aevo where tokens trade based on pure community momentum before a formal launch.
• The Reality: It's the wild west. 99% are scams or fail. But the 1% that succeed create the most viral stories in crypto.
• The Only Rule: This is gambling, not investing. You must use scalping tactics: tiny capital, take profits constantly, and never fall in love with a project.
If you're chasing 1000x, this is the hunting ground. Just know you're more likely to get rekt than rich. The skill is in managing that extreme risk.

*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.

Burwick Law sues Pump.fun again: Uncovering 5,000 internal private messages and the 'front-running' scandal.
Case escalation: In January 2026, law firm Burwick Law filed an amended complaint with the federal court against Pump.fun and its affiliated parties (including Solana Labs and Jito Labs). The plaintiff describes the platform as a 'manipulated casino,' not the fair opportunity game it claims to be.
Core allegations: * Internal manipulation: The lawsuit cites internal communications from co-founder Alon Cohen, who allegedly admitted that 'most people will lose money.'
Technical unfairness: Accusations that the platform leverages Jito Labs' priority fee mechanism to allow certain insiders and KOLs to 'front-run' token launches, structurally exploiting retail investors.
RICO allegations: The plaintiff invokes the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), alleging that the involved parties formed a coordinated criminal enterprise.
Court progress: Although the judge noted there is currently no conclusive evidence of direct executive profit, the plaintiff has been allowed to submit a new evidence package containing 5,000 private communication records, which could be pivotal for future convictions.

Pump.fun Makes Another Big Move! On January 13, 148 million USDC/USDT (ICO Proceeds) were transferred from a linked wallet to Kraken.
Since last November 15, the total has exceeded 753 million. The platform claims it's routine fund management, but amid regulatory scrutiny and a litigation-sensitive period, treasury transparency is once again being questioned...
What's the signal? Treasury diversification or something else? What do you think?

🔥 $PUMP in bullish consolidation phase, kinda building up steam without going nuts. For trading on 1-hour timeframe, I'm cautiously thinking long, but wait for some confirmation.
Volume's telling a good story: On those recent 1-hour candles, pullbacks are on fading volume, but the upside pushes? They're packing more punch, like that 3.82B spike during the breakout. Feels like the bulls are for real here.
Capital flows are mixed but intriguing – strong net inflows on contracts over 1H to 4H (3.12M to 1.77M USDT), which screams institutions scooping up shares. Meanwhile, spot's seeing outflows, probably retail cashing out. That kind of setup often sets the stage for a bigger move.
For entry longs $PUMP : If you're feeling aggressive, hop in at the current 0.002523 with a super tight stop. Better yet, wait for a dip to that 0.00246-0.00248 zone where it hits the MA5.
Stop-loss: I'd go 3% below your entry, around 0.002447
Targets $PUMP : First up, Resistance level at 0.002576, then next resistance zone at 0.0026823 if it really runs
This all hinges on the 1H timeframe staying above that 0.002389 support. If it cracks, scrap the bull idea. #pump #PUMPUSDT #pumpfun

⚡️ Pump.fun is rethinking the token creation fee model… and the reason runs deeper than it appears
Pump.fun has announced its intention to restructure the creator fees system,
after the team realized the current model encouraged low-risk token creation
instead of incentivizing high-risk trading, which the platform was originally built for.
🔍 According to co-founder Alon Cohen:
Fees themselves weren't the issue,
but rather the way incentives were directed, which influenced user behavior.
💡 What does this mean?
Shift from quantity → to quality and engagement
Greater focus on real trading rather than rapid launches
Effort to rebalance between creators and traders
📉📈 In the world of meme coins,
who understands incentives… understands the market before anyone else.

#pumpfun breaks records & Solana memes wake up
The second week of 2026 just set the tone! 🔥 While the market was settling in, Pump Fun wrapped up its most successful trading week ever:
$6.6B - record weekly trading volume on PumpSwap (outpacing other Solana DEXs);
15M+ - total lifetime token launches achieved;
28,000+ new tokens being minted daily. The trenches are alive.
🐳 Looks like Solana memes are experiencing a reawakening - it’s not just about new launches, liquidity is flowing back into legacy plays:
Tokens like WHITEWHALE and $USELESS are back on the radar.
Big players are rotating back into $FARTCOIN and $PIPPIN.
TRUMP and MELANIA are also rallying on global news.
📉 Despite the volume explosion, protocol fees are actually lower than the September peaks ($13M vs $39M daily), while the native PUMP token is trading flat at $0.0021
🤔 So, are you digging in the "trenches" for new launches this weekend, or sticking to the high-cap classics? Drop your tickers below!

$PUMP 💥 BREAKING Alert 🚨🔥🚨
🔥 $PUMP Looking Bullish with Some Consolidation. For trading on 1-hour timeframe, I'm leaning long.
Market structure-wise, price is forming higher lows since hit a low of 0.002123, and that recent rejection at 0.0025270 seems like a good test of resistance. With a 7.926% gain in the last 24 hours, the momentum's still strong—minor dips aren't killing it.
On volume, I've noticed those big spikes in recent candles—like that massive 33.675B during the breakout—which really screams real buyer interest to me. Now that volume's settling down a bit, it feels like it's just building up for the next push.
Capital flows are interesting too: net inflows are positive over 6 hours (4.21M) and 24 hours (735.5K), even with some short-term outflows, which makes me think smart money is quietly stacking up. Spot market's holding steady with 2.1M inflows in 24H, backing up that natural demand vibe.
Entries longs $PUMP
- Main one: Jump in on a retest of 0.00233-0.00235 (where it lines up with MA20) if I see a solid 1H candle confirmation.- Backup: If it breaks above 0.002462 (Resistance) with volume over 2B, that's my signal.
Stop loss at 3.5% below entry, around 0.002248 (just under S1 and the latest swing low).

Pumpfun Just Nuked Dev Power: Traders Are Back In Control! 🤯
This is a massive structural shift for the memecoin ecosystem, signaling Pumpfun is aggressively filtering out garbage projects and rewarding actual liquidity providers.
The new fee structure clearly prioritizes the trader over the developer, aiming to rebalance the market after explosive, often low-value growth. Co-founder Alon confirmed that while the old system attracted builders, it led to mass memecoin spam and rug pulls. The pivot is clear: less incentive for quick-launch devs, more benefit for those actually trading and holding $PUMP related assets. Expect cleaner action moving forward. 🚀

Trigger: Pump.fun announced a new creator fee model based on market, effective 2026.
🔍 In short:

•PUMP immediately rebounded, breaking free from the falling wedge pattern
⚠️ But be careful:
•Market sentiment is still "extreme fear" (Fear & Greed Index: 25)
📈 Is this surge purely a reaction to news or the beginning of a new trend? Time will tell.

Pump.fun Rewrites: Fee Adjustments Shake Up the Memecoin Market on Solana
📅 January 9 | Solana and Memecoins
For much of 2024 and 2025, Pump.fun became the epicenter of the memecoin phenomenon on Solana, an open laboratory where thousands of tokens were born, exploded, or died in a matter of hours. However, beneath that avalanche of launches, something began to quietly break down: the incentives. While creators multiplied coins with little risk and low commitment, traders—the true engine of liquidity—beared all the volatility.
📖Pump.fun, the memecoin launch platform built on Solana, announced a significant overhaul of its creator fee system after concluding that the incentives implemented so far were not achieving their goal of improving the quality and sustainability of the market. The announcement was made by Alon Cohen, co-founder of the project, in his first X post in over two months, a detail that alone reflects the magnitude of the change.
Alon Cohen explained that the Dynamic Fees V1, introduced in September as part of Project Ascend, succeeded in attracting new creators and boosting on-chain activity, but did not substantially alter the behavior of the average memecoin creator. In practice, the system ended up incentivizing the creation of low-risk, low-commitment tokens, rather than fostering active markets and narratives capable of sustaining trader interest.
According to Alon Cohen, the core problem is that creator fees ended up disrupting the market's natural balance. While deployers could launch coins with little reputational cost, traders assumed the riskier role, providing liquidity, volume, and volatility. For Pump.fun, this distortion was unsustainable, since traders—not creators—are the true lifeblood of the platform.
The new adjustment introduces fee-sharing mechanisms, allowing teams to split revenue across up to ten different wallets, transfer token ownership, and revoke the contract's update authority. Furthermore, creators and administrators will be able to define specific fee percentages after launch, aiming for a more flexible and less automated model.
These changes come at a time of renewed activity. According to The Block, nearly 30,000 tokens were launched in a single day on Pump.fun, marking the highest daily level since mid-September. The surge suggests that, despite saturation, the appetite for memecoins remains strong, although increasingly constrained by the incentive structure.
For Pump.fun, this update is just the first of several planned leading up to 2026, in an attempt to rebalance an ecosystem that grew too rapidly and now faces its own contradictions.
Topic Opinion:
Adjusting fees isn't just a technical change; it's a policy within the protocol. If this redesign manages to return decision-making power to traders, we could see less noise and more real narrative.
💬 Will this change improve the quality of memecoins?

#Solana -based memecoin platform #Pumpfun is updating its creator-fee structure amid a resurgence in token launches. Co-founder Alon Cohen said the previous Dynamic Fees model boosted participation but encouraged low-risk deployments rather than active trading, prompting changes aimed at rebalancing incentives.
