According to CryptoSlate’s data, PUMP surged to $0.0086 on Sept. 14, setting a fresh peak before retreating by nearly 3% to trade around $0.008 at press time.
A key driver of this rebound has been the relaunch of Pump.fun’s livestreaming feature. The platform, once criticized for unsafe broadcasts including instances of self-harm, paused the function last year.
However, its reintroduction has triggered a surge in user activity, with livestreaming now contributing directly to engagement and platform revenue.
“When you stream on pump fun you get INSTANT Creator Fees (100x+ of what you earn elsewhere). INSTANT viewership with a community that’s incentivized to support you. Free clipping on X (other socials soon). And 24/7 support from the team.”
Despite ongoing criticism of its approach, Alon has brushed aside concerns, arguing that new entrants inevitably face scrutiny and that competitors will continue to emerge.
“first they said that memecoin activity would never sustain then they said that no one would ever stream on pump fun now they’re saying that pump fun streaming is not sustainable I wonder what they’ll come up with next.”
The data shows that the top 25 creators earned between $24,100 and $123,000 in the past 24 hours alone.
