Solana-based token creation and launch platform Pump.fun announced that its creators earned $2 million in just one day, a massive increase compared to the previous daily average of $198,000.
The dramatic change comes from a new dynamic fee structure, where token creators now earn commissions ranging from 0.05% to 0.95% per trade, depending on the token’s market cap level. For instance, tokens with a market cap between $88,000 and $300,000 allow creators to earn up to 0.95% in fees.
Even underperformers — such as streamers — saw significant earnings growth. For example, streamer Rasmr’s income jumped from only $5.12 to $2,290 Similarly, creator Goon, who launched his token three months ago, earned up to $9,400 under the new model.
This fee system is part of the Project Ascend initiative, which aims to encourage creators and build a thriving meme-token economy within the Pump.fun ecosystem.
