Pump.fun (PUMP), the token of the Solana-based launchpad platform for the meme coin, has shown no clear recovery after weeks of trading sideways around $0.002. However, the platform remains one of the market’s top revenue generators and continues to grow despite volatility.
In March, Pump.fun continues to show strong revenue momentum and whale accumulation. These signals suggest that the price could “pump” again.
Pump.fun (PUMP) Stays in The Top 5 Revenue-Generating Projects
Many protocols have reported negative revenue in Q1/2026, and layoffs have increased amid unfavorable market conditions.
However, Pump.fun holds a solid position among the top revenue projects. Data from DeFiLlama shows that Pump.fun generated $1.14 million in 24-hour revenue, surpassing Tron (TRX). Its 30-day revenue exceeded $39 million, placing it in the market’s top 5.
Despite ongoing controversies, Pump.fun ranks alongside names like Tether, Circle, and Hyperliquid. This highlights the platform’s strong user demand.
Data from Dune shows that Pump.fun’s cumulative revenue officially surpassed $1 billion by March.
Meanwhile, Pump.fun’s revenue measured in SOL has increased steadily for several months. It reached 430 million SOL in February, marking the highest level since February last year. March has not ended yet, but revenue has already reached nearly 260 million SOL.
Revenue growth plays a significant role in PUMP’s price, as the platform allocates almost all revenue to buybacks. So far, Pump.fun has repurchased more than 106 billion PUMP, accounting for 30% of the circulating supply.
However, many investors still question why PUMP’s price has not “pumped” in line with this strong buying pressure.
“PUMP weakness should be studied. It is a top 5 revenue-generating company. It has hundreds of millions in buybacks, yet it still trades like one of the most unwanted tokens in crypto,” one investor noted.
Persistent selling pressure may come from retail investors who remain cautious amid negative market sentiment driven by war impacts and macroeconomic data. However, Nansen data shows that top addresses continue to accumulate PUMP.
Since the beginning of the year, the top 100 wallet addresses increased their PUMP holdings by more than 4.6%, while whale addresses increased their holdings by 41.2%.
At the time of writing, interest in meme coins has not yet recovered, and investor sentiment remains generally fearful. However, the above factors could contribute to a potential recovery if retail investor sentiment towards the market improves.
