Last Friday, July 24, the percentage of memecoins launched on the Pump.fun platform reached 6.7%. This is approximately eight times higher than the average figure for June. The increase is linked to the implementation of a new BOOST mechanism, which is intended to enhance trading incentives for recently migrated tokens, as reported by the editorial team of Happy Coin News.
Over the past four days, the average rate of memecoin launches on Pump.fun has been 4.7%, compared to 2.5% last week. A token exits the listing when its bonding curve reaches the required threshold, and liquidity transitions to PumpSwap, the decentralized exchange of Pump.fun. Most tokens never reach this stage.
BOOST targets so-called "dead liquidity." Previously, about 20% of the liquidity transferred during migration was permanently locked in the PumpSwap pool. Now, the updated system distributes this capital through automatic market purchases within the first five minutes after migration. Each token acquired in this manner is subsequently burned and permanently removed from circulation.
This incentivizes buyer activity when the price of recently released tokens can fluctuate sharply. Furthermore, it reduces the number of memecoins in circulation, potentially amplifying the impact of subsequent demand on price. It remains unclear whether this increase will be sustainable or is merely a temporary surge of interest in the new feature.
