- Pump.fun has acquired the wallet-tracking platform Kolscan, which monitors top onchain traders and provides real-time transaction data.
- The acquisition aims to improve user experience and is part of a strategy to regain market share from competitor LetsBonk.
- Pump.fun is launching an ICO for its “PUMP” token on Saturday, targeting a raise of $1 billion with a total supply of one trillion tokens.
- 330 billion tokens (33%) will be allocated for investors at a price of $0.004 each, with institutional investors receiving a portion as well.
