Pump.fun and new Solana mints

Pump.fun is still minting new Solana memecoins in April 2026, and the platform is still pulling in meaningful fees even after last year’s frenzy cooled. (defillama.com) Pump.fun’s own site says anyone can create a coin with “equal access to buy and sell from the start,” and its fee page shows a 1.25% total fee on bonding-curve trades before coins move into PumpSwap pools. (pump.fun 1) (pump.fun 2) DefiLlama lists Pump.fun at about $1.595 billion in decentralized exchange volume over the last 30 days, with annualized fees near $269.4 million and quarterly gross protocol revenue of $81.8 million in the first quarter of 2026. (defillama.com) The platform’s token economics also changed after launch. Pump.fun’s revenue page says it has recorded 2,533,740 Solana worth about $350.1 million in historical PUMP purchases, while adding that the token “does not represent a right to revenues or any other distribution.” (fees.pump.fun) Market trackers show PUMP trading around the low-$0.0017 range in early April. CoinGecko’s historical data put the close at $0.00169149 on April 5, 2026, after prints between $0.00163106 and $0.00190269 during the prior two weeks. (coingecko.com) That price action is steadier than many single-use meme launches on Solana, but it has not been flat. CoinGecko’s live page showed PUMP near $0.00174 to $0.00177 in the days around April 12, with a market capitalization just above $1 billion and 24-hour volume above $50 million. (coingecko.com 1) (coingecko.com 2) The new mints matter because Pump.fun remains one of the main on-ramps for speculative Solana trading. Solscan’s platform page for Pump.fun showed total volume near $4.96 billion and total value locked around $242.4 million when crawled on April 12, 2026. (solscan.io) Trump-branded tokens are still part of that flow. Search results across Solana trackers and decentralized exchange dashboards show multiple recent Trump-themed Pump.fun or PumpSwap pairs, including “Official Donald Trump” and “Trump Coin,” both with small holder bases and thin liquidity typical of fresh meme launches. (dexscreener.com 1) (dexscreener.com 2) I could not independently verify the specific “CHADIRAN TRUMP” token from reliable primary sources available to search on April 12, 2026. What the public data does show is a steady stream of new political-name mints on Pump.fun, while the platform itself keeps collecting fees whether individual coins stick or disappear.
