Pump.fun
pump.fun (commonly referred to as Pump) is a cryptocurrency launchpad for the Solana blockchain that enables users to create tokens and trade them immediately on the platform, as well as to launch them onto decentralized exchanges, a process known as "graduation". The platform was launched on January 19, 2024, by Noah Tweedale, Alon Cohen and Dylan Kerler. As of January 2025, over 6 million meme coins had been launched on the platform according to ''Wired'' and it is one of the fastest-growing crypto applications ever according to some metrics by ''Ars Technica''. ''Bloomberg'' reported in June 2025 that pump.fun is ''"''one of the biggest drivers of the explosive growth in memecoins and the attendant burst in activity on the Solana blockchain in the past year." The site has been described as the "ground zero" for launching meme coins, with users able to instantly create coins for free. While any type of token can be created, the majority of tokens are classified as me ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Meme Coin
A meme coin (also spelled memecoin) is a cryptocurrency that originated from an internet meme or has some other humorous characteristic. The term is sometimes used interchangeably with the term shitcoin, which typically refers to a cryptocurrency with little to no value, authenticity, or utility. It may be used in the broadest sense as a critique of the cryptocurrency market in its entirety — those based on particular memes such as Dogecoin, celebrities like Coinye, and pump-and-dump schemes such as BitConnect — or it may be used to make cryptocurrency more accessible. Unlike traditional cryptocurrencies with defined use cases or technological foundations, meme coins often lack intrinsic value and derive their price primarily from community hype, social media momentum, and celebrity association. Their prices can skyrocket rapidly as new investors, drawn by viral attention or fear of missing out (FOMO), pour in funds. However, this growth is typically unsustainable, as the ...

Cryptocurrency Exchange
A cryptocurrency exchange, or a digital currency exchange (DCE), is a business that allows customers to trade cryptocurrencies or digital currencies for other assets, such as conventional fiat money or other digital currencies. Exchanges may accept credit card payments, wire transfers or other forms of payment in exchange for digital currencies or cryptocurrencies. A cryptocurrency exchange can be a market maker that typically takes the bid–ask spreads as a transaction commission for its service or, as a matching platform, simply charges fees. Some brokerages which also focus on other assets such as stocks, let users purchase but not withdraw cryptocurrencies to cryptocurrency wallets while dedicated cryptocurrency exchanges do allow cryptocurrency withdrawals. Operation A cryptocurrency exchange can typically send cryptocurrency to a user's personal cryptocurrency wallet. Some can convert digital currency balances into anonymous prepaid cards which can be used to withdraw ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Exit Scam
An exit scam or rug pull is a confidence trick or fraud, perpetuated under the guise of a legitimate business, that ends when the originator absconds with the funds contributed by participants. When a business entity ''pulls the rug'' and stops shipping orders while receiving payment for new orders, it could take some time before it is widely recognized that orders are not shipping. The entity can then make off with the money paid for unshipped orders. Customers who trusted the business do not realize that orders are not being fulfilled until the business has already disappeared. Exit scams are commonly associated with the rise of cryptocurrency projects due to the lack of regulation and decentralized ecosystem. The best-known examples are online sellers where the buyer does not know the real identity or physical location of the scammer and therefore has little recourse. Payments to darknet markets are usually made in cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or Monero, where payments a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

$Trump
$TRUMP (stylized in all caps) is a meme coin associated with United States president Donald Trump, hosted on the Solana blockchain platform. One billion coins were originally created; 800 million remain owned by two Trump-owned companies, after 200 million were publicly released in an initial coin offering (ICO) on January 17, 2025. Less than a day later, the aggregate market value of all coins was more than $27 billion, valuing Trump's holdings at more than $20 billion. A March 2025 ''Financial Times'' analysis found that the crypto project netted at least $350 million through sales of tokens and fees. The venture has faced widespread condemnation from ethics experts for Donald Trump's conflicts of interest related to the project and his presidential duties. During the second Trump administration, Trump has promoted $TRUMP and taken actions that have raised the value of the meme coin, contributing to a substantial increase in his net worth. History The Trump meme coin was ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
