Pump.fun’s PUMP token opened at a fully diluted valuation (FDV) of roughly $5.6 billion on July 14 and fell 7.3% within the first three hours of trading, according to DEX Screener data. 

The Solana-based coin changed hands at approximately $0.005128 at 20:30 UTC, implying a current FDV of nearly $5.12 billion, liquidity of $19.3 million, and 11,160 on-chain transactions worth $34.1 million logged during the period.

Buy activity slightly outpaced sales, with 6,210 purchases versus 4,950 sales, while the split in dollar terms ran almost even at $18.7 million and $19.1 million, respectively.

Record-setting sale fills war chest

The token’s debut followed a 12-minute public sale on July 12 that raised $500 million and distributed 125 billion PUMP.

The sale-priced tokens at $0.004 were exhausted on Pump.fun’s website and four centralized exchanges, marking one of the fastest capital raises in ICO history.

On-chain dashboards compiled by Dune show that 23,959 wallets have completed the mandatory Know Your Customer procedures, but only 42.3% have secured tokens. 

The average spend reached $44,209, while the median landed near $550, illustrating a skew toward whale participation, even as small holders dominated numerically. Exactly 202 wallets hit the $1 million hard cap, while 5,758 spent less than $1,000.

Pump.fun’s own breakdown assigns 33% of supply to the ICO, 24% to community and ecosystem initiatives, 20% to the founding team, 13% to existing investors, 3% to a livestreaming budget, 2.6% to liquidity and exchange incentives, 2.4% to an ecosystem fund, and 2% to a nonprofit foundation. 

Furthermore, website analytics indicate that 76% of the tokens were sold through Pump.fun’s portal, with the balance handled by partner exchanges. The team said this approach strengthens direct ties to users and limits middleman influence. 

Developers required identity checks for all participants and excluded residents from the US and UK, positioning the raise as a “compliant” alternative to earlier memecoin launches, according to statements posted on social media by Dune contributor Adam Tehc.
