Coinbase is preparing to open trading for the $PUMP token just ahead of its public debut, adding it to both its international and advanced platforms.
The listing is timed to go live around July 10, giving early access to what’s shaping up to be one of the more hyped Solana-based launches this year.
The token belongs to Pump.Fun, a memecoin launchpad built on Solana, which is now making its first move into public token markets. Its Initial Coin Offering (ICO) begins July 12 and will put 33% of the total 3 trillion token supply up for grabs. Retail investors will have access to 15% of that supply, with the price set at $0.004—matching the rate given to early backers.
Pump.Fun’s tokenomics split the rest of the supply among team members, early investors, ecosystem incentives, and features like livestream support. Notably, trading on platforms like Bybit, Kraken, and KuCoin will begin 2–3 days after the ICO, a buffer aimed at avoiding post-sale volatility.
In parallel, Pump.Fun has acquired Kolscan, an analytics tool that tracks wallet activity and ranks top traders. The integration is meant to turn trading into a more interactive experience, allowing users to view real-time performance data and compare strategies—all at no cost, for now. Co-founder Alon described it as a way to make trading more social and engaging, with insights that help both new and experienced users learn from each other.
With a listing on major exchanges and a social-oriented trading platform in the works, Pump.Fun is pushing to become more than just another memecoin project.
